Newbie1:-Yea, how can you get nicked for something you didn’t do?

Yasmine stand silently, fumbling with her hands

Newbie2: Oh come on…(getting annoyed)

Yasmine: I was just walking home and I heard this scream-so I ran over and
foundthis person lying on the floor…She was still alive you see, so I knelt down
and held her and she died in my arms (puts her hand to head, and turns away
momentarily from the newbies) The next thing I know there’s Police all around
me and they arrested me. (Crying) They put me in here(points to the floor) and I
didn’t do it… I honestly didn’t do it …and I’m going to be stuck in here for life.

Yasmine breaks down into tears

Newbie2: Look (goes over to Yasmine, and puts hand on her shoulder to comfort
her) maybe someone will find something-

Newbie1:You just have to keep your head down. That Carla really does look
vicious.

Scene 2 – Logan

Governor’s office;Ms SULLIVAN (the Governor) sitsat her desk looking very bored
and wants something exciting to happen. BORISenters the room.

Boris: You wanted to see me Governor?

Sullivan:Yes I did McKenzie, take a seat and please, call me Ms.
Sullivan.

Boris: Oh! Ok you can call me Boris if you like?

Sullivan:(Sniggers to herself) I’d rather not thank you. (Gesturing to chair)Please
take a seat.

Boris:Thank you Ms. Sullivan (Sits down)

There is an awkward silence, which makes BORIS uncomfortable.Ms SULLIVAN
finally starts to speak.

Sullivan: Ok I’m going to get to the point and tell you why I’ve sent for you.

She stands up from her desk and starts to walk around the room.

Sullivan:You’ve been working for us for a while now and according to Mr.
Watson-

As soon as she says Mr. WATSON, BORIS jumps out of his seat and becomes excited
like a puppy

Boris: - MR. WATSON!!! What did he say about me? Did he say he was impressed
with my skills? Did he say I gave him sharp answers in best training? Or did he
say how much I remind him of himself in his younger days?

Sullivan:(sarcastically)Let me think ummmm… NO (gets serious) He actually said
you’re a show off and that you are nothing but a useless pathetic swine who does
nothing but follow him around all day.

Boris:(shocked) Mr. Watson said that?

BORIS is shocked and then bursts into tears. Ms. SULLIVAN comforts him by putting
his head on her chest and holds him.

Sullivan: There, there; it will be all right, Ms. Sullivan will make everything
better. (She starts stroking his hair.)


Cell Block 33 7

Boris:(Boris starts sobbing like a pathetic child) I just wanted him to like me Ms.
Sullivan, is that too much to ask?

Sullivan: Of course not McKenzie; I tell you what, if you do something for me I
will put in a good word with Mr. Watson.Howdoes that sound?

Boris:What do I need to do?

Sullivan:(Ms. Sullivan is still stroking his hair) Oh nothing much.Just keep an eye
out for anything the other guards are up to that isn’t quite in the rule book...
especially Joe!

Boris: but, but …. That’s like spying! They don’t tell us to do that in ‘best
training’. What if Mr. Watson finds out, what if……

Ms. SULLIVAN smoothly puts her finger on BORIS mouth so he knows she wants
him to be quiet

Sullivan:(Sexy tone of voice) you do want to make me happy don’t you McKenzie?

Boris:(Boris hesitates) but…. but…. Mr. Watson? What if he-

Ms. SULLIVAN feels Boris’s hand

Sullivan:-Oh my goodness!! You poor dear, you’re shaking like a leaf, let me help
you relax…

Boris:Ms. Sullivan I am sorry but, but…

SULLIVAN interrupts BORIS

Sullivan:(flirtatiously) you know young man; I alwaysget what I want!

Boris: Oh I bet you do Ms Sullivan!!! (Boris is enjoying the massage)

Sullivan: You do want to make me happy and make me tell Mr. Watson what a
good boy you are? Right…

Boris:Ohhhhhhhhh YES Ms Sullivan!!! (Boris is REALLY enjoying the massage)

Sullivan:Now get out of here and keep your eyes open!

Boris:Ohhhhhhhmyyyy god yes, yes, yes! (He pulls out his note book with a pen
and runs off)

smiles at the Governor

Yasmine:No Miss.

Sullivan: Mr. Watsonplease would you show our new guest to her cell...

Watson: My pleasure Ms Sullivan,(turns to Yasmine) okay you, get a move on

and he turns round. She straightens out his collar.

speak.

Moorland:Hello ladies, who wants to start us off today? Is there anything anyone
wants to share?

Andi:I had toast for breakfast, with jam on top, yummy....

Moorland:Thank you Andi but that's not quite what I meant. Last session we
were talking about respect.

Andi:(Towards Audience) so it’s about Respect this week!

Whitney:Yes I loved that session!

Andi:Oh Whitney, can you stop flirting with Mr. Moorland and stop talking about
respect. (Sarcastically)We can always see it when we’re in our cells, (To
Audience)especially between Carla and Nicole.

Nicole:Oi, if you gotta say something just say it out loud,init!

Carla:I’m getting bored, can we just carry on-

Moorland:-Yes thank you! So we were talking about respect. How to get it, what
it means and how we feel about it. Has anyone had any thoughts?

Nicole:(Aggressive tone) Yeah. We don't have it and it’s never going to happen-

Carla:(towards audience) I swear I just said I’m getting bored so why is he
carrying on with this respect thing?

Sasha: (To audience) you don’t want to see her when she gets mad.

Moorland:-(looking at Nicole)And why is that?

Carla:Cause we're nothing but criminals now.-(Looking at nail tips not actually
interested)

Whitney:I’m not a criminal!

Nicole:Oh just shut up!

Moorland:-That’s not true; you’ve all got a second chance!


Cell Block 33 10

Carla:Oh Really? You think anyone is going to give me,(Pointing at herself) me a
chance when I get out of here? You're dreaming man!

Andi:(looking confused)(To audience)Now it’s about dreaming?

Moorland:You have to earn a second chance. Start by learning respect, you know
what they say;respect is the key to success.

Cash: Yeah well somebody stole the key.

Whitney:Considering your history, are you sure it wasn't you?

Cash:Are you accusing me of nicking stuff?

Nicole:(Laugh out loud) I swear that’s why you're in here?

Cash:Mistaken identity…duhh

Whitney:Tell it to the judge.

Cash:I did!

Nicole:Yea, after you bloody nicked his wallet.

Carla: Shut up you idiot.

Nichole:How about you shut up first.

Carla: Do you want a punch in the face.

Sasha: (To Nicole) Back off or well get you!

Tasha: Just watch!

Nicole can’t be bothered to start and sits down kissing her teeth.

Moorland:Ladies, LADIES! Keep it together. Look, I know you're angry but
fighting each other is not going to help! Respect is the key... (To audience) No let’s
not start all that again.

Carla:Why the heck am I even in here?

Nicole:Shut up you know why you’re in here!

Sasha:You can’t talk to her like that!

Nicole:I am, do you have a problem with that?
Carla:I do init!


Cell Block 33 11

Moorland:Alright ladies cut it out, God I need to get a vacation. Look, that's the
end of the session today but maybe next week we can talk about writing a letter
to the Governor about conditions? We can try to make a positive change.

Carla:Whatever

Nicole:Get lost Carla!

NICOLE and CARLA storm out in opposite different directions. Others follow. Mr
MOORLAND holds his head in his hand.

WATSON to her new cell. YASMINEwalks slowly through the corridor looking
around.

WATSON turns around and looks at YASMINE with an aggressive face.

Watson:(Angrily) come on there! Walk a bit faster, don’t dilly dally.

YASMINE gets scared on hearing WATSON’S angry voice and quickly stops looking
around; instead she looks down and starts to walk faster to catch up with
WATSON.WATSON angrily holds YASMINE’S arm and pulls her to walk at the same
speed as him. Once they reach the cell, Watson lets go of YASMINE’S arm and
*kicks open the cell door.

Watson: Right, come on in then

EnterYASMINE, as the lights are being switched on. She hears a noise.

Yasmine: What’s this weird noise?

Watson: What noise?(Looks around)

Yasmine: Can’t you hear it? It’s like someone’s breathing heavily and it’s coming
from this direction.

YASMINE points and moves towards the direction, from where she could hear the
noise. The noise gradually gets louder.All the lights are fully on now. YASMINE
stops walking towards the direction and gazes at the person who is sleeping and
snoring in front of her.

Yasmine: Who is she?(Shocked)

Watson:(points at Nicole and smugly)that’s who you’re sharing this cell with

Yasmine: What…but…

Watson: Shut it and no moaning. At the moment all the cells are taken, so
you’llhave to stay here till we find you another cell… which will take us a while.
(Pause) Right then! (To Nicole) Come on, wake up you lazy git.

After yawning and stretching, NICOLE opens her eyes fully and stares at YASMINE,
who is standing just a few steps away from her.

Nicole: Who’sthis? (Looks Yasmine up and down)And what do you want? (Kisses
her teeth and gives evil looks to both Yasmine and Watson.)
Watson: Say hello to your new cell mate – Yasmine!

someone?

any fuss in here.

Watson:Now settle in and I better see you two for the drill at 11 sharp!

WATSON leaves the cell. YASMINEwalks over and sits on the bottom bunk.There is
a moments silence after WATSON leaves.

Nicole: Why you in ‘ere then ‘ey?

Yasmine: I don’t know why I’m in here. It just wasn’t my fault okay(Soft voice)

Inmate 2: New cell mate?

Nicole:(passively) yea she just arrived

Inmate 2: You better watch yourself in here!

Inmate 4: Yeah, we ain’t had a really good punch up for a while now.

Inmate 2: She’s got one of those faces that could do with a bit of alteration.

Nicole jumps down from the bunk bed

Nicole:Oi, don’t you lay a finger on her, alright? She’s in my cell now so you don’t
touch her, you know the rules!

Inmate 2: Yea whatever. Catch you later Nic!


Cell Block 33 14

Nicole grabs Inmate 2 by the throat.

Nicole: It’s Nicole to you yea, say Nic again and I’ll break it!

She lets go and they run away.

Yasmine:(sheepishly) Thanks.

Nicole:Don’t get too happy, it’s just the rules; youHAVE to look after your cell
mate.

Yasmine begins to read. Nicole goes to pour some water from a jug.

Nicole:What you reading?

Yasmine:Beatrix Potter.

Nicole: I used to read loads before I came in here. Mine got taken away.

Yasmine: Why?

Nicole: I kept throwing them at Watson.

Yasmine:Well if you ever want to borrow mine you can. Just whenever you feel
like reading, ask me if I’m around or just take it.But DON’T throw the at anyone

Freeze Frames,mimeshowing developing friendship between Yasmine

Song:

Nicole:

I see the old me in you
Making a change was the bad thing to do
Feeling broken and so bruised
I wish I could go back and become someone new
I was Just like you, just had to tell you

Yasmin


Cell Block 33 15

I thought I would never get a friend
Because I was so afraid
Didn’t know what to do
But now I feel safe
Just make a change
And you might hit fame
Never put yourself down
Or call yourself lame
We are just the same
We are just the same

The buzzer for the inspection rings.

Nicole: Hey, Yasmine …

Yasminecuts through Nicole’s dialogue.

YASMINEaway with her, as she’s not keen on the inspection, and they get away.

Watson: Alright Ladies shut your gobs! (All the girls stop talking)I don’t have
anytime to waste on this inspection, so Mr Chandra’s going to do the
inspection.(Chandra waves at the girls and they start laughing, which makes
Watson angry) SHUT IT! I have more important things … I have a very important
meeting with Ms Sullivan (He starts smiling)

Carla:(shouts out from crowd) I bet it is VERY important.

Girls whistle and laugh CHANDRA joins in.

Watson:(Looks at Chandra) Think that’s funny, do you?

Chandra: I’m so sorry, I didn’t-

WATSON doesn’t let CHANDRA finish what he’s saying and storms off

Chandra:(smiles at the girls) let’s carry on. (Looks really confused)What were we
supposed to do again? Oh yes, the inspection thing followed by some PE. Listen
up ladies, would you mind awfully, standing in nice three neat rows, quick as you
can now…

Carla:(sarcastically) Okay, watch us make the prettiest lines ever Mr Kanda!

Chandra: Oh my gosh, Carla, do you still not know how to say my name? IT’S
CHANDRA!

Inmate 1: It’s a difficult name to say Changrey

Chandra:Let’s just try to get it right shall we. On the count of three would you all
mind just shouting ‘Chandra’ as loud as you possibly can, then we can all get it
right. Ok? One, two, three!

All girls:(Shouting)CHANDRA!

Chandra:Now, enough of this nonsense, let’s get this check over and done with
before Watson comes back, otherwise all of us will be in an awful lot of trouble.

Carla:(sarcastically laughs) did you not hear where he said he’s going,Ms
Sullivan’s office! (Pause) He won't be coming back for a while.

All the girls start laughing

Chandra:(daydreams) Ahhh…he’s such a lucky guy. (Stops daydreaming) Now

Nicole:(looks at Yasmine) what’s up with you?

Yasmine: I don’t get it, why are you so relaxed about sneaking out of the
inspection I mean-

Nicole: - Oh shut up! Nothing will happen. You know Mr Chandra, he’s a nice guy
but he lives in a fantasy world. He doesn’t know about anything that goes on in
here.

Yasmine: (interferes) – yeah but-

Nicole: -Just stop worrying, and seriously stop walking up and down, its making
me feel giddy. Just sit down.

NICOLE takes out beers from under her bed.

Yasmine:(Worryingly)What’s that?

Nicole: Ah, here we go again. Relax already. (Opens up a beer can) You know, Joe?
-he brings us these(holds up beer can) So it’s okay. You’re such a worrier (shakes
her head from side to side)

Yasmine:(does a sarcastic laugh) just pass one here.

Nicole:Oooh, good girl gone bad eh?

Laughs and throws a beer can to YASMINE, and takes a sip of beer herself.

Nicole:Ahh, this reminds me so much of the good times. Being out, being free,
and doing what you wanted, when you wanted.

(Pause)

Yasmine:(starts thinking) I hope you don’t mind me asking but how did you get
in here?

YASMINE gets up, goes and sits beside NICOLE on her bed, after seeing her eyes
water, NICOLEmoves towards her.

to,who would I tell?

(pauses)

Yasmine:You and Carla ….I swear you guys hate each other, don't you?

Nicole: Just listen will you? (Getting a little angry)

Yasmine: But I don't get it-

Nicole: (angry tone) -WHAT'S UP WITH YOU? I SAY ONE THING; YOU ASK A

Mckenzie: No, I’m not up for anything like that, Mr Watson wouldn’t like it.

Joe: You guys need to know how to have REAL FUN! Changra, here have some.

Chandra: Its Chandra not Changra and thanks(takes a cup of tea from JOE)

BORIS, JOE and CHANDRA drink the tea with a mixture of something else and it has
an effect on them. The three guards laugh and get out of control.

MOORLAND enters the room

Moorland: Alright guys?

Boris: Tea?

Moorland: No thanks,(thinks for a while)where do you lot see yourself in
fiveyear’s time?

Joe:Random question but I’ll be long gone, in a job where people don’t hate you.

Boris: Better not become a banker then!

Moorland: What about you Chandra, here in five years?

Chandra:Oh no, I see myself with a perfect wife, with seven perfect children and
a perfect job (not this one) NOT THIS ONE!

Joe: Oh really, but you missed out on the bit where your wife’s blind and doesn’t
know who on earth she’s married to(smirks)

Chandra: (Punch Joe)

(JOE gives and awkward look to CHANDRA)

Moorland: I need to get away for a vacation. I can’t stand being here anymore.

Chandra: Why not move to India?

Moorland: I couldn’t stand the heat.


Cell Block 33 23

Joe notices Boris who has been silent for a while

Joe:Boris why are you so quiet? (Confused)

Boris: Well I want to have the same status as Mr Watson and dothings very
differently to impress him, but he’s not willing to give me a chance

CHANDRA and JOEsee Mr WATSON coming and deliberately make BORIS insult MR
WATSON

Joe: That’s really shocking to hear, tell us more!

Boris:He is the worst creature God has ever created; I mean he looks like
medusa, with the snakes hissing at everyone they see.

Chandra: He is a wonderful boss to us, I don’t understand why you’re saying
this?

Joe: Mr Watson always has control over everything

Boris: Are you all feeling alright, he treats us all with no respect, so the next time
I see him, I will say no to whatever he demands for and stand up for
myself(stands up and points at guards) you all just watch!

Watson: Very interesting Boris, I was about to give you a certificate on how
supportive you are of me. May be not now!

Mr WATSON tears up the certificate in front of BORIS and throws it up in the air

Watson: Now you all pay attention.I’m going to start the Best Training class right
now.

Boris: But sir...

Watson:Shut up Boris! Now my lecture today will start with how to deal with
fight situations. I hope you’re all making notes on this (waves a pen at them)

Chandra: Oh I don’t like fighting Mr Watson. Somebody might get hurt (looks
around sheepishly)

Watson: No you idiot not how to get into a fight, how to stop it!

All Guards: Ahhh!

Watson: God give me strength. Now I would like a volunteer (looks at the guards,
but stops at Boris)Hmm, Boris you’ll do. Chandra you stand behind me. I want
you to do this. Stand with your back to me(Chandra stands with his back to
Watson) Yes that’s right. Now I need you to fall back and I’ll catch you. (To


Cell Block 33 24

Chandra) I’ll do it first then you can have a go. Just lean back on the count of
three; one-two three...

Just before BORIS leans back SULLIVAN enters the room. WATSON moves quickly
towards her and BORIS falls. CHANDRA manages to catch him but they both fall.

Sullivan:(Seductively) Hello Watson, I just wondered if I could have a word.
(Looks back at CHANDRA and BORIS who have fallen on the floor)Oh my god,
what’s going on here?

Watson: Well, I was just teaching them to trust each other. I just wanted them to
have faith in each other.

Sullivan: Wow, I’ve never seen such a wonderful man who worries about his
colleagues so much. What a lovely man you are Mr Watson!

WATSON smiles and bows

Watson:(flirty tone) Please call me Mitchell or Michy for short

Moorland: Do you need me Sir because I just need to go and buy a gun and a
length of rope.

Watson:Oh, I’m sorry I completely forgot about you all (looks towards Sullivan
and smiles, and then looks back at guards)you can all go.

All the GUARDSexit

Sullivan: how sweet, Michy. You’re such a sweetheart.

Ms Stella Sullivan’s papers fall to the floor and they both kneel to get it, Ms Sullivan
and Mr Watson makes close eye contact.

Watson: Allow me to pick up your papers, my lady

Sullivan:You’re such a gentleman!

Mr Watson on one knee gives the papers to Ms Sullivan

Sullivan: What are your plans for today?

Watson: Well nothing much, but I was thinking we could go somewhere for
dinner.

Sullivan: That’s really nice, so you’re paying for it right? cherry-pie

Watson: Anything for you

Song:


Cell Block 33 25

Verse (Guard)
Every day I look at you
I wonder if you look back.
Do you feel the way I feel for you?
In my heart I wonder that.

Verse (Governor)
Never new I’ll find love here
I wonder if he knows that
In my heart there are some feelings
I’m falling that’s a fact

Corus (Both)
I know I feel something strange
I don’t know if you feel the same
But honestly if I agree
It will be plain to see,
That I’m falling for you.

Both lean in for kiss and lights black out.

Scene 8 -Sara


Cell Block 33 26

The bell rings for dinner and all the inmates come marching in a sequence. At one
end of the concert hall 3 dinner ladies are standing waiting to serve the inmates
with WATSON on one side and BORIS on the other.

Watson: COME ON LADIES!Chop, chop now get in line and get your slop!

Boris: YEA! You heard him, don’t waste our time!

Inmate 3: How’s about you just shut it, we don’t take orders from a(looks Boris
up and down) little man like you.

Watson: Alright then, listen to a big man like me! So as he said, get a move on!

Inmates:Whatever

Boris: Um, Mr Watson. You’ve got some Lipstick on your mouth.

Watson:(touches his lips) Just-um- trying on some disguises.

Tannoy announcement.

Sullivan’s Voice:Could all guards report my office immediately please?

Watson:Come on Boris.

The guards leave unnoticed.

As all the inmates sit down in lines to eat their food .YASMINE walks to the canteen
after everyone’s sat down then CARLA walks in and over to the canteen followed by
NICOLE a few minutes later. YASMINE looks around the dining hall to see where
she can sit, after other inmates showing her that she is not welcome to sit anywhere
she slips and falls into CARLA.

Carla:(stands up) whatthe...

CARLA takes a deep breath and looks down at herself, while all of the inmates look
at them in the middle of the dining hall in shock whispering to each other and
moving away from them, YASMINE is stuck on the spot, really scared and speaking
with a stutter.

Yasmine:Oh my god I’m, I’m so, so, so sorry!

Sasha: What have you done you idiot?

Carla:Yea you will besorrywhen I’m finished with you, you lil brat...

Yasmine: I didn’t mmm…Mean it!
Carla:(closes fists) Well I’ll mean every single bruise and cut I leave on your
body!


Cell Block 33 27

Sash:Basha. BASH HER.

Tasha:(To audience)Now you know why she’s called Basha!

SASHAgrabs YASMINE by the hair and CARLA starts to speak to the other inmates
as they gather around.

Carla:(Trying to mimic her sweet voice)new girl wants to know what it’s really
like in here, don’t you.

Sasha: She wants to be taught a lesson.

Tasha: We’ll show her one she’ll never forget!

NICOLE walks over and pushes people out the way and shouts out

Nicole:Oiiii, why don’t you mess with someone your own size!

All inmates move right back now even more shocked and completely silent to what
has just happened. CARLA lets go and pushes YASMINE, who falls to the floor hurt,
and looks up slowly at NICOLE who are now facing each other at a distance in the
middle of the hall.

Carla:Excuse me?

Nicole:You heard me, why are you acting like your something big, you worthless,
bag of filth!

Tasha:(points at Nicole) watch your mouth!

Carla:Oh …so big man decides to speak up now yea? Just get out of here before I
do some real harm!

CARLA looks at the other inmates smiling and shaking her head left and right.
NICOLE starts walking in circles around CARLA.

Nicole:Well we all know what you can do, don’t we! We all know how messed up
that mind of yours is! How many gruesome murders you’ve committed!

NICOLE’S tone in voice changes to a much softer and hurtful tone

Carla: Shut up Nicole, just stop right there.

Nicole:Why what are you afraid of, that I’ll tell everyone what a big lie it is, how
you betrayed your best friend, how you’ve never really killed a single person.
How all of this is just for show.
Tasha: Shut up that ain’t true.


Cell Block 33 28

Nicole: Don’t you want to know how she sent me down, by lying to me all for one
pathetic guy.

Carla:You knew how much he meant to me! How can some random nobody
come along and decide to try it with my man, I thought you would understand.

Nicole: I guess I thought our friendship meant more to you. Well you know
what,I’m doing much better without you.

NICOLE turns around to walk away when CARLA mutters a comment about her.

Carla:You are nothing and never will be.

NICOLE forgets about everything that just happens and thinks about the last words
CARLA just said and turns around, leaping onto CARLA from behind. Here both
CARLA and NICOLE are fighting and ripping, scratching and punching each other
on the floor.

Inmates are now gathered around shouting and cheering at both girls on the
floor.WATSON, BORIS and JOE now re-enter the hall, realising what is happening
and running in at the same time calling for back up.

WATSON grabs CARLA and BORIS grabs NICOLE

The prisoners are still too shocked to move

Song:
(Nicole)
Before I got to prison, I lived a good life,
It was Carla who then pulled out the knife.
It’s her fault I’m here, yet she doesn’t care,
Why all the betrayal, it’s just not fair.

(Chorus)

I’m living my life; I’m living in hell,
I’m living in prison and I’m here to tell.
It’s bad in here I’m in so much pain,
It’s such a shame, no one knows my name.

(Carla)

I don’t care about her; I am who I am,
It’s not my fault; it’s just the way I am.
I know it was a mistake, yet there’s no turning back,
And from my mistakes, I’m learning that,

(Chorus)


Cell Block 33 29

(Yasmin)

Forget about the past, it’s all about now,
The hard bit is figuring a way out.
You were both good friends, what went wrong.
It’s about time, you both get along.

(Chorus)


Scene 9 –Zahra
Carla: (Stands Up)WHAT THE HELL IS GOING ON AROUND HERE?


Cell Block 33 30

Inmate 1:(Viciously sits Carla down.) You best shut your mouth.

Inmate 4:(To Carla) what was it again you’re in here for?

Carla: I’ve told you all before already…Murder.

Everyone starts laughing and then suddenly stop.

Inmate 3: (Holding Carla’s neck from the back.) Wrong answer, try again.

CARLA gets more and more nervous.

Carla:Okay, Okay… I only stabbed the damn girl now get the hell off me.

Inmate 4: Uh, not so fast. Now you see; you’ve been a right cow around here.
Things are about to change!

Inmate 2: A girl with only one record of stabbing someone has been messing
with the wrong bunch of girls.

Inmate 1: Girls! Let’s say we show little miss bad girl, what it really means to be
bad.

Freeze the scene with INMATE 2 holding the back of CARLA’S head whilst INMATE
1 is about to violently punch her, meanwhile everyone else is gathered round
cheering and yelling abuse at CARLA.

Scene cuts to Yasmine and Nicole

Yasmine: Nicole, look at this, is this really what you want to happen to your best
friend?

Nicole:She’s not my best friend and never will be; no friend of mine would do the
thingsshe did.

Yasmine:I know your upset at her and I know you have no intensions of
becoming friends again. But there’s no harm in trying.

Nicole:You would never understand how it felt; to see your own friend lie and
set you up. It’s all her fault I’m stuck in here!

Yasmine:You’re right. I won’t ever understand, but I do know deep inside, you
want to go and help her right now. It’s never too late to change things between
you two andholding a grudge against her won’t ever change what’s happened.

NICOLE sighs and realises the right thing to do. Girls unfreeze, yelling abuse and
cheering on INMATE 1, who is about to punch CARLA.


Cell Block 33 31

Newbie 1: PUNCH HER! WHAT YOU WAITING FOR!

Inmate 3:Carla you’re a liar!

All inmates are now getting very aggressive.

All Inmates: PUNCH HER! PUNCH HER! PUNCH HER!

Nicole: (Stands Up)STOP!

Everyone stops suddenly and turns around.

Inmate 1:SHUT UP!

Nicole:Oi just listen to me for two minutes.

Cash:Go on then, this better be worth it.

Nicole: (Takes a deep breath)How is beating up Carla, going to solve anything.
Don’t you realise by acting this way you’re becoming everything that you hated
about Carla and the way she treated you. Carla was only as petrified as you all
were when you first came here. We all made stupid mistakes and tried covering
up how scared we were by putting on this fake shield that truly doesn’t need to
be there. If you lot feel that the onlyway left is to stoop to Carla’s level, then we’re
all only as bad as her. Just take a second to think about who you all werebefore
you came here, I know that I for one have become so different from the person I
used to be. I barley recognise myself. Maybe we all need to look hard to find our
true selves.

There’s a silence within the group, everyone is left speechless. WATSON and
CHANDRA enter.

Watson:Okay you lot; now get to your cells.

Everyone goes without a single word; NICOLE and CARLA exit last, each looking at
each other in disbelief.CARLA is now shown in her cell thinking about what’s just
happened.

Then lights begin to dim.

Scene 10 – Rajan
Chandra walks past inmates who are standing around and talking.


Cell Block 33 32

Newbie 1: You know Watsons dating Sullivan don’t you?

Andi: Really?

Newbie 2: Yea! She’s all over him.

Inmate 3:Oh, do you think Chandra knows about it. The poor guys besotted.

Whitney: Don’t know; let’s find out, it’ll be fun!

They all look at Chandra

Andi: Hey, Mr Chandra, I heard Ms Sullivan likes you.

Chandra: Don’t be silly, why would she like me.

Whitney: She does, she told me.

Chandra: Well it would be nice for someone to care for me, other than my
mother (shakes head in shame)

Cash:Why not try and ask her out?

Chandra: Oh no, I couldn’t possibly! She’d think I was being silly.

Andi:You should go for it, she REALLY likes you!

Chandra:(With excitement)does she really?

All Girls: YES!

Chandra:Maybe I should try then!

Inmate 4:Yea you should.

Andi: Go,for it

Chandra: But I really don’t know what to say!

Andi starts to write on Chandra’s hand.

Andi: Just say that and you’ll be fine.

Chandra: Wish me luck girls and try not to do anything too naughty whilst I’m
gone.

CHANDRA walks quickly and nervously toward the governor’s office. He arrives at
the office and knocks on the door. There’s no answer so he just opens the door and


Cell Block 33 33

walks in. He glances at SULLIVAN and starts to read the words of his hand not
looking up.

Chandra:(rushing)Ms Sullivan I need to tell you something…no don’t stop me,I
love you and I always have and I think you feel the same way actually I know you
do and I love you and I want to spend long evenings by the fire with you and...

CHANDRA looks and sees SULLIVAN with WATSON who she has just been kissing.

Chandra: Oh, I’m terribly sorry I didn’t know you had someone with you.

Sullivan: Oh dear, this is a bit sticky isn’t it. You see Chaudry...

Chandra: Chandra!

Sullivan: Chandra, I’m with Watson. I’m very sorry.

Chandra:(Sad) No, I understand. I’m sorry, sorry

CHANDRA walks towards the door, he opens it, looks over his shoulder at
SULLIVAN, pulls a handkerchief out of his pocket, wipes his eyes and leaves.
SULLIVAN and WATSON freeze for a few moments; look at each other and start to
kiss again.

Lights Black out

Scene 11–George


Cell Block 33 34

JOE is sitting in the officers mess room singing along to ‘Singing in the Rain’ on his
portable radio. He mimics the dance from the film and WATSON walks in followed
by NICOLE.

WATSON and NICOLE stand in the door way for a few moments until Watson
speaks.

Watson:(Trying not to laugh) what the hell are you doing?

Joe:(Stunned and embarrassed) Oh, sorry sir, I was just… just practicing my
routine for the PE session tomorrow.

Watson: But you don’t take the PE class tomorrow!

Joe: No…well… I was working on it for Friday.

Watson: (Sarcastically) Yes. (Gets serious)Anyway,Nicole wants a word with you
Joe, I said you weren’t busy.

Joe: Nono,I’m free.

Watson:(To Nicole). Well I’ll leave you in Joe’s capable hands.

Nicole:(Realising what’s she’s done),Thanks MR. Watson.

WATSON gives NICOLE and JOE a disapproving look and leaves.

Nicole: Joe I need to speak to you...

Joe: Now listen, (Very defensive)I can explain about the beer, see my friend
shipped...

Nicole: No it’s not about the beer!

Joe: Fags?

Nicole: Just listen for crying out loud! Right…

JOE gets upand pours himself a glass of water and begins to drink

Nicole: I’d like to go on one of the Education courses...

As she says education Joe spits out his water in shock! He turns round and stares at
NICOLE.

Joe:(SHOCKED) you what?

Nicole: Well I didn’t pass my A levels!

Joe:Right, well that’s a huge change what were you thinking you’d you like to do,
A level Maths, English, Drama...


Cell Block 33 35

Nicole: English! I want to write a book.

Joe: Oh really, what kind of book?

Nicole: A book about my life!

Joe: Right, well, that should be an interesting read! I tell you what; I’ll have a
word with Ms Sullivan and get you on it as soon as I can… Ok?

Nicole: Cheers Joe, I owe you one.-

Joe:-Two in fact.

Nicole: What?

Joe: You still haven’t paid for those beers!

BORIS walks in.

Boris: What’s this then, ay Joe? Smuggling to the prisoners?(Getting excited)I’ve
got you this time; I’ve waited ages for this and now it’s finally here! I’m going to
take this to the top. All illegal I bet?

Joe: Yep, yep they are!

Boris: Brilliant, I’ll probably get a promotion out of this!

Joe: Boris?

Boris: No Joe…don’t try and wheedle out of it because you won’t change my
mind.

Joe: Where did you get the bottle of Whiskey?

Boris:(Not realising) off (Realises) you! Oh my GOD!

Joe: Yes! So unless you want Sullivan or Watson to find out about this, I’d keep
your mouth shut. Ok?

Boris:(Annoyed)You, you, you. I’ll get you one day you, you! Ahhhrrrr!

BORIS storms out

Joe: That’s the way to handle that little,(He looks at Nicole)man. (Pause) Right,
get on your way now.

Nicole: Cheers Joe! See ya!

Scene 12– Sara and Zahra


Cell Block 33 36

All the INMATES are in the recreation room during their free time. Scene begins
with CARLA’S and a few inmates arm wrestling, CARLA has just won the game.

Carla: Thrashed you all…AGAIN!

Sasha: She beat you, she beat you!

Inmate 3: What, you cheated!

Tasha: She didn’t cheat!

She gets up and starts to boast

Carla:Better luck next time!

Inmate 3: Whatever.

Carla: Who’s next?

Basha: I’ll play with you.

Carla: No thanks Bash! How about you go play hopscotch or something. So who
want a go then?

NICOLE at this point is observing what is happening and smiling at how CARLA is
showing off , and walks up to the group, and sits in front of CARLA.

Nicole: Round 4(smirks)

Carla: bring it on(Smirks back)

Game carries on, all inmates gather round eager to see the outcome of this game.
NICOLE wins

Carla:(disappointed)what?

Nicole: Game over!

NICOLE gets up with a smirk on her face while everyone’s turns silent.

Carla: That doesn’t change the past, remember how I used thrash you(Almost
laughing)

NICOLE turns around with a soft smile

Nicole: Yeah how we used to argue about it, then 10 seconds later laugh about it?

CARLA’S face drops


Cell Block 33 37

Carla: (To other prisoners) go do something somewhere else (TURNS BACK TO
NICOLE)I hear your getting out soon?

Nicole: Yea, 3 weeks?

Carla: You told Yasmine?

Nicole: Not yet.

Carla: She’s done a lot for you, you know. And for me.

Nicole:You’ll look after her won’t you?

Carla: Yeah, sure!

Spot light on CARLA

Carla: I’m starting to realise that being together with everyone even Nicole is not
so bad, I actually miss my times with Nicole and I guess I’ve been too big headed
to actually admit that I was wrong all along and Nicole wouldn’t be here if it
wasn’t for me, but there is no going back so I guess I should make the most of
these moments.

Spotlight now turns onto NICOLE

Nicole: Why wasn’t it like this from the beginning, even though so much has
happened, I can’t go back and change things and I really do miss my best friend?,
I’m gonna make sure before I go it’s never too late…

Carla: What do you think you’ll do when you get out?

Nicole: Thinking of writing a book.

Carla: What you going to call it?

Nicole: The Promise …I’ll send you a copy when it’s done.

Carla:(Smiling)you better. I’m so sorry I let you down.

Nicole: Hey, the past is forgotten, so don’t worry bout it.

Carla: Friends again?

Nicole: Of course we are!

NICOLE and CARLA hug
Lights fade out.

and no matter what I will always remember you as a sister.

Yasmine: something is wrong isn’t it, just tell me, please, is it me, are you

Nicole:Yasmine listen!

NICOLE and YASMINE look at each other for a few seconds and they both look very
upset

Nicole: I’m leaving, I’ve done my time and now it’s time for me to go and make
something out of myself.

Yasmine: Nicole I’m so proud of you.

Nicole:I couldn’t have done it without you. Yas you’re a brilliant mate and you’ll

who I’m with.

But that wasn’t the case, I’m far from gone

Now I’m standing here, thinking you’re so blessed,

We know we can be strong
We know we were here so long

Now we can no longer blend

Freedom we scream
Freedom we Yell
Freedom is what we have achieved

We Know we were here so long
we know we can be strong
we are bursting like a flame
giving up isn’t our game

At first we were hoping
but now we are coping
We are no longer blending
we have come to an End, End, and End
