• Bea Smith : [shouting from solitary confinement]  Hey! Hey, when is somebody gonna tell me what's going on?

• Arthur Richards : [handing her a document]  Now, Mrs Smith, if you'll sign this?

  Bea Smith : What is it?

  Arthur Richards : Just a formality. There's no need to read it, as I said it's merely formality.

  Bea Smith : [pause while she reads it]  Just a formality? You bastard!

  Arthur Richards : Mrs Smith, it's merely a waiver exonerating the department from responsibilities from your injuries, minor as they are.

  Bea Smith : They might be minor to you, but to me they're pretty important.

  Arthur Richards : Now, Smith...

  Bea Smith : It never occurred to me that I could sue the department, now you mention it, it could be pretty expensive.

  Arthur Richards : You wouldn't dare.

  Bea Smith : [laughs]  Try me! I've got nothing to lose.
