T-BagI was Cole Pfeiffer. Respected businessman. Top salesman in the Northeast Region. Now I'm back being prisoner of my own identity. Theodore Bagwell. Convict. To hell with it. We are who we are, right?
T-BagIt's just your friendly, neighborhood T-Bag.
You best speak with respect, Fish. Man kidnapped half a dozen boys and girls down in 'bama, raped and killed 'em all. Wasn't always in that order either.
Does T-Bag have a real name?
T-Bag[walks up] That is my real name. [Michael gets up] No, no, no please, sit. So you're the one I've been hearing all the rave reviews about. Scofield! One thing's for sure, you're just as pretty as advertised. Prettier even.
T-BagUgh, ugh yeah, Hold up here a minute, oh, hold up here huh... Seems to be a little confusion... I'm suppose to be on this brigade...
[to the C.O] I don't think so.
T-BagHuh, John, you can't be serious, not after all the long and illustrious histories we shared together. All those nights in New York City, in California, in St. Louis. They were good times, weren't they John?.. Tell the badge here about it... but if you don't want to... I certainly could.
T-BagAfter all I've done, maybe I do deserve to die. Maybe I do, but you are no better than me.
But I can be, if I want! God has given me the chance to choose. Maybe I should give you a chance as well.
We're not getting out of here.
T-BagUnfortunately, pretty, that ain't an option.
Now, you know what? There are two things that everybody needs to get with here. [to T-Bag] First, hillbilly, you have got to learn some respect. The man here made everything possible. [to Michael] And you, Fish, you have got to get with that we are doing this thing this afternoon, as soon as we get on PI.
[laughing] So you're just gonna make a run for it, in the middle of the day?
Well, you gotta do what you gotta do, huh, baby?
You are gonna screw this whole thing up...
It's not for you to decide anymore. Now, this train is leaving the station, and I suggest you get on it.
T-BagGet on the train, Fish, get on the train...
Well you know what, you sons of bitches? I won't let you do it.
T-BagWhat you gonna do, blow the whistle on your own escape?
Tell me that’s not what I know it is.
T-BagOh it is. But don't worry. Before I destroyed it I committed it to my photographic memory. I would have tattooed it to my body but I didn’t have the time.
T-BagDon't you feel all warm inside now that we're all working together?
We're not working together. You're just here to lend a hand.
Before or after Sheep Road?
[silence]
What's the matter, Theodore, did you forget?
T-BagHow could I forget a road called Sheep?
The ranch is gone Michael.
Well the 5 million may not be.
T-BagAnd you gonna find it how? What, you got a divining rod tattooed on your ass?
I DON'T WANNA HEAR ANYTHING OUT OF YOUR MOUTH OTHER THAN WHAT YOUR PHOTOGRAPHIC MEMORY SPITS OUT REGARDING THAT MAP!
T-BagYou watch your tone with me, boy.
I'll watch you get tossed to the side of the road to fend for yourself, boy. Because if you can't remember where that silo was, you're worthless to us.
You see these 2 trees? They’re shorter than the rest. They were all planted at the same time. But those 2 didn’t get as much sunlight.
Something was in their way.
The silo. Our money should be right there, under that garage.
T-BagYou better be right, boy.
This isn’t a high end subdivision. They slapped this place up overnight. The silo’s foundations might still be there. To save money they probably just laid that concrete for the garage floor right on top of it. We’ll dig straight down. If we hit the foundation, we stay. If not, we go.
Could you do something for me?
T-BagI'm certain of it.
Come here. [whispers] Only you have to be very discreet.
T-BagThey don't come any discreeter.
You know that big guy? The strong guy that doesn't speak much? Would you go in there and ask him if he would like to have a drink with me after he punches out, please?
Why don’t you get down in that hole and dig, man.
T-BagHow ‘bout you backin’ up, dark fella?
You’re a long way away from home, trailer park. I can put you in that hole and nobody’d ever hear you scream
You tell me where the money is or I'm gonna read it on your tombstone.
T-BagOkay. Okay. I'll give you a clue. It ain't here.
