Travis taunts Barris, saying he should use his $14,000 for psychological treatment. Barris also orders Travis to clean the prison toilets as punishment for his defiant attitude and his attempt to help Benjy. Barris, to Travis' surprise, gives Benjy his insulin, but later takes revenge by massing all other guards to beat Bosche severely, who is then left among the prison population. When Travis pleads for Bosche to intervene, Bosche tries to help by locating Benjy's insulin, but is caught by other guards. Travis discovers that Benjy, who is taken ill, had concealed his diabetes, thinking that he could manage the condition himself. When fellow guard Bosch dissents, Barris pressures him by reminding that quitting early will forfeit payment. He reassures the guards that they are behaving appropriately.

Instead, the guards grow more forceful in order to make prisoners follow the rules. Barris, concerned that some of the guards, particularly Chase, may be capable of violence, tries to dissuade them from aggressive behavior.
