Arnold James Masters : I didn't kill anyone, and if I didn't kill anyone then I'm not insane, and I'm not gonna confess to something I didn't do.

Emilio : I killed my own daughter. She had become a whore. They say that maybe I'm insane, but they do not understand an act of honor.
Arnold James Masters : I didn't kill anyone. My mother was sick for a long time, I stayed with her and I took care of her. This doctor was treating her, determined that she had a tumor, but the operation was expensive, I couldn't afford to pay him, we had no insurance, oh there was a house, this old house, but my mother wouldn't sell that no matter what. Doctor refused to operate, I argued with him, I lost my head, people in the office saw me cursing him, I ran away. I came back, I was going to beg him to reconsider. He was on the floor, dead, I guess when I reached for the scalpel I got some of his blood on me, I ran to the police and told them everything, guess they needed a fall guy because they took everything I said and they twisted it, they charged me with murder, my lawyer sold me out, the trial was a joke. What's the difference?
Emilio : I believe you.
Arnold James Masters : They said they'd have a nurse look after my mother, they didn't, and she died. 4 days, that nurse hadn't been there to see her in all that time. They didn't tell me about it until 6 months after it happened, didn't tell me, because they were afraid the shock would be too much for me. Your train is late.
Emilio : Maybe I can help you.
Arnold James Masters : How?
Emilio : The day before I die, I shall kill the pimp that made my daughter into a whore. The day after I die, I shall help you find justice for yourself.
