Dr. Madison Carter attempts to break through Parker's defensive walls to understand his psychological triggers, while Parker struggles with the trauma of his past and the dehumanizing nature of being a test subject.
MADISON: The cuffs won't be necessary.
GUARD: No offense, ma'am, but I don't think that's such a good idea.
MADISON: I would like the following three things in this order: your mouth shut, cuffs off, and your ass outside the door. Any questions?
PARKER: You actually listen to all those tapes?
