watch and listen carefully
The guard yells at the inmates upstairs to listen up during the work call.
All you guys up there, pay attention!Bad Boys · 1983 — 第 7 / 9 章 · 2'16" · B1
The block gets its work assignments, and the men turn the routine into a show: bets go down on who will fight, with "The new guy" as the pick. Under the noise, old hatreds are being stoked — someone reminds Moreno what O'Brien did to his face and his brother. "He's not getting out of here alive," Moreno says.
Inmates are assigned their work details for the day — farming, the commons, and the worst job of all. As the list is read, other prisoners open a betting pool on an upcoming fight. The pick is the new arrival, and the stakes jump from five dollars to double. One inmate keeps needling Moreno about O'Brien.

Someone tells Moreno to forget it because he has already claimed the target.
You forget it, Moreno. He's mine.The scene shows how a prison turns everything into a contest. Work details are read out like a lottery, with the worst jobs handed to the newest or weakest men. Almost immediately the block drifts to violence: "Who's it gonna be?" "The new guy," and money goes down. It is not really about entertainment — it is about status, and about watching who can hurt whom. The taunting of Moreno is part of the same game. Someone reminds him what O'Brien did to his face and to his brother, pushing him toward a fight he cannot win alone. His answer, "He's not getting out of here alive," shows the plan is already set, and the final line — "He's mine" — makes clear that O'Brien is a prize two men want to claim. The point system may run the institution, but revenge runs the inmates.
All you guys up there, pay attention!The guard opening the day's announcements. The blunt command sets the tone of the block: orders come from above, and everyone else listens.
Hey! You gonna keep that all day?A complaint about someone hogging something — a mop, a spot, a moment. Even the smallest resource becomes a point of conflict in here.

- Who's it gonna be? - The new guy.The betting pool in miniature. In the block, a fight is scheduled like a card game, and a newcomer is the safest bet to be tested.
- He's gonna smash that white dude. - Yeah.Open talk about the coming fight. The casual certainty shows that violence is not a surprise here; it is expected and wagered on.
He's not getting out of here alive.Moreno's quiet promise. It states the plan without heat, which makes it more frightening than a shouted threat would be.
Farming, the commons, and the worst job of all. Inmates are read out by name, and the new prisoner Moreno is sent to clean the toilets.
A fight is coming, and they want to wager on it. Betting on who will win the fight is part of the block's culture, and the new guy is the pick for who will be beaten.
The other inmates know the history between them and use it to push Moreno. They mention his face and his brother because O'Brien is behind both, hoping to trigger a fight.
He says O'Brien is not getting out of the facility alive. Another inmate immediately claims O'Brien for himself, so the plan may not proceed as Moreno wants.
