I used to be an Inmate. I can crack jokes whenever I want. But I wasn't joking. I stayed in Wisconsin for a very long time and I couldn't leave.

It takes time to build something from the awful things, but that's a very good point.

You were an inmate, weren't you?

Yeah. Some people more than others.
