Keith, meanwhile, is at the prison talking to an enormous guy and ascertaining that he wrote some letters complaining about the sewage in his cell, and he got beaten up as a result. The guy adds that he's got twenty-two stitches to prove it, although I'd think you'd need a large meat slicer to inflict that kind of damage on this guy. Keith tells him he'll see him in court, and he leaves as Mosley enters. Keith adopts a guilty posture on seeing him, and we learn more about what happened -- Keith wanted him to accept a plea that would have resulted in a sentence of five years, but Mosley refused, as he was innocent. "But I turned your five years down and you just stopped fighting." Keith denies that, saying that they simply lost, and that was the risk of going to trial. "You had no one who backed up your alibi." Mosley asks where Eli is, but Keith tells him that he's the one taking depos. "I'm the guy you got now, David. There's no one else coming." Mosley turns his back for a moment, but sits down and tells Keith how, the second year he was at the prison, his cellmate's appendix burst, and "they" waited a day and a half before getting him to a doctor. Yikes. Mosley filed a complaint, and as a result got transferred to the E Wing -- "with twenty-five members of the Aryan Nation." Keith looks up slowly as Mosley goes on that he suffered a punctured lung and some fractures, but that was nothing compared to his cellmate, who died that night. Keith uncertainly opines that that's unbelievable, and Mosley says they should keep going. "I got ten years' worth of stories to tell." Keith looks like he might vomit.
It's still night, and Sassy Patti comes in with refreshments for the chimp champions and asks if they've been to the website that day, as "Stevie" is getting sicker. Matt tells her that the problem is at the end of the day, they're still chimps, and Taylor sighs that they're going to have to drop the case. Sassy Patti, in response, calls her a "meat-eating animal hater," and I may not like her but I can appreciate some northern California vérité being thrown into the mix here. She goes on about Taylor's shoes, and now Matt suddenly catches on that Taylor doesn't even like animals and that Eli set him up. "I don't believe you! The only reason you took this case was to piss off your ex!" Taylor, of course, counters that the only reason Matt took it was to get her into bed, but Sassy Patti has had enough of this shit and orders them to work out how they're going to save her chimps. Well, at least she's using her sassiness for gay instead of evil.
