- Why does Nathan have to be so lazy?
- How come Nathan didn't listen to his conscious on the night he was caught?
- Why do the inmates get so much freedom inside jail?
- How much time does Mo Battle have to do?
- pawns- the least valuable pieces on the chessboard
- resignation-an accepting, unresisting attitude, state, etc.; submission;
