He must have said something. No, sir, Warden. Not a word. Lord, it's a miracle! A man up and vanished like a fart in the wind. Nothing left but... some damn rocks on a windowsill. And that cupcake on the wall. Let's ask her. Maybe she knows. What say there, Fuzzy Britches? Feel like talking?

Parole violation. Of course, I doubt they'll toss up any roadblocks for that.

Well, erm... ...why don't we have a seat, and talk it over? Brooks, do you have a piece of paper and a pencil? Thanks. So... Mr. Dekins... And then Andy says to Mr. Dekins, "Do you want your sons to go to Harvard, - "or Yale?" - He didn't say that? As God is my witness, he did! Dekins just blinked for a second. Then he laughed himself silly. And afterwards he shook Andy's hand. My ass! Shook his hand. Hell, I... I near soiled myself! All Andy needed was a suit and a tie and a little jiggly hula girl on his desk, AND HE WOULD HAVE BEEN: "Mr. Dufresne, if you please"! Making a few friends, Andy? I wouldn't say "friends". I'm a convicted murderer who provides sound financial planning. It's a wonderful pet to have. Got you out of the laundry, though. Well, it might do more than that. How about expanding the library? Get some new books in there. If you're gonna ask for something, ask for a pool table. - Right. - How do you expect to do that? I mean, get new books in here, Mr. Dufresne, if you please? Ask the Warden for funds.

It's good having you back, Andy. The place wasn't the same without you.

It pissed the Warden off something awful.

I think... mostly, I wanted to scare them. When they arrived, you went up to the house and murdered them. No. I was sobering up. I got back in the car, and I drove home to sleep it off. Along the way, I stopped, and I threw my gun into the Royal River. I feel I've been very clear on this point. Well, where I get hazy is where the cleaning woman shows up the following morning and finds your wife in bed with her lover, riddled with .38 caliber bullets.

And that also... is very convenient. Isn't it, Mr. Dufresne? Since I am innocent of this crime, sir, I find it decidedly inconvenient that the gun was never found.

Now, does that strike you as a fantastic coincidence, Mr. Dufresne, or is it just me? Yes, it does. Yet you still maintain that you threw your gun into the river before the murders took place? - That's very convenient. - It's the truth. The police dragged that river for three days, and nary a gun was found. So, there could be no comparison made between your gun and the bullets taken from the bloodstained corpses of the victims.

...think about this. A revolver holds six bullets. Not eight. I submit that this was not a hot-blooded crime of passion. That could be understood, if not condoned. No. This was revenge... of a much more brutal and cold-blooded nature. Consider this. Four bullets per victim. Not six shots fired, but eight. That means that he fired the gun empty, and then stopped to reload... ...so that he could shoot each of them again. An extra bullet per lover. Right in the head.

Mr. Dufresne, describe the confrontation you had with your wife the night she was murdered. It was very bitter. She said she was glad I knew, that she hated all the sneaking around... And she said she wanted a divorce in Reno. What was your response? I told her I would not grant one. "I'll see you in hell before I see you in Reno." Those were the words you used, Mr. Dufresne, according to your neighbors.
