- Officer Dickenson: All right. So... .you had the Stayner boy. Why did you take Timmy White?
- Kenneth Parnell: [somewhat shaken] Gentlemen, until my lawyer arrives I'm not gonna answer any more questions!
- Chief Johnson: [walking in with a large teletype printout in his hand] His record just came in. Mr. Parnell, I'm looking at a list of kidnapping and child molestation charges that goes back *30 years.*
- [Parnell looks confused]
- Chief Johnson: [sternly] So let's cut the "father of the year" campaign, shall we?
- [Parnell is still dumbfounded]
- Officer Warner: [to hotel manager] Excuse me, sir! Do you have a Kenneth Parnell working here?
- Kenneth Parnell: Uh, excuse me... .I'm Reverend Parnell. How may I help you gentlemen?
- Officer Warner: Would you, uh, step outside with us, please... .*Mister* Parnell?
- Kenneth Parnell: [puzzled] What's this all about?
- Kenneth Parnell: [once outside] I'm not sure I understand... .
- [second police officer pushes Parnell up against the police car and spreads Parnell's arms apart]
- Officer Warner: Mister Parnell, you are under arrest for the kidnapping of Steven Stayner and Timmy White!
- Kenneth Parnell: I beg your pardon?
- Officer Warner: Before you say anything, I'll read you your rights. You have the right to remain silent. If you give up the right to remain silent anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law!
