Helen Kleeb: Prison Matron

Quotes 

• Prison Matron : You've done your time and you're getting out. So watch yourself. You're on probation for five years. Don't leave the San Francisco area or otherwise violate your probation in any way. Or you'll be back here quick enough.

  Barbara Graham : Oh, no ma'am, I won't.

  Prison Matron : I hope you mean it... You do have a choice. People have managed to be fairly happy by *not* getting into trouble. Get a job! Maybe get married!

  Barbara Graham : I have been... occasionally.

  Prison Matron : Your way doesn't seem to be going too well. Why don't you try the other?

  Barbara Graham : Thanks. Maybe I will.
