Jonathan Crane lies in his bunk, holding a sobbing Eddie. The jury has voted, the courts have decided and Jonathan is going to die with a noose around his neck. This is his Last Night. His final hurrah. It's nowhere near as grand as he wanted. He holds Eddie close, trying to soothe his friend. Eddie mutters something about it being unfair but Jonathan isn't listening. He's thinking. Death. So that is his fate. To be hanged out in the yard for all to see; a warning to the other. Try as he might, he isn't afraid. Isn't worried. He's just…excepting. His life has reached its end. He shifts slightly and runs a hand through Eddie's hair, trying to calm him. It was out of the mercy of the staff they were permitted this final night together. Jonathan should be alone in solitary. But he's with Eddie. And he's glad.

It's not death if you refuse it
It is if you accept it
