for fingerprints? All his, except for a few. He planned it all in here. It's a real shithole. Appropriate, really. Will he live?
Long enough. Some sort of brain growth,
apparently. He's a strange one, no mistake. When they stripped him off
at the hospital, they found all these holes
in his back, like he'd been hammering nails
into himself. Religious fanatic, maybe. Makes no odds. He'll face trial. Tumour won't kill him,
the law will do that. I wish to see him. And please telephone your colleagues
in Andover and ensure that Peter Ascher
is released from prison. He is innocent. Forgot about him

All his, except for a few.
00:00:08.064 --> 00:00:10.068
He planned it all in here.
00:00:10.068 --> 00:00:12.999
It's a real shithole.
00:00:13.012 --> 00:00:14.052
Appropriate, really.
00:00:14.052 --> 00:00:17.032
Will he live?
Long enough.
00:00:17.032 --> 00:00:19.056
Some sort of brain growth,
apparently.
00:00:19.056 --> 00:00:22.028
He's a strange one, no mistake.
00:00:22.028 --> 00:00:24.044
When they stripped him off
at the hospital,
00:00:24.044 --> 00:00:26.036

I wish to see him.
00:00:38.999 --> 00:00:42.002
And please telephone your colleagues
