So Dick's in jail and he's planning on making a shiv out of a tooth brush and I guess that's kind of smart, but if he gets caught he's screwed. The next day, the sheriff has a shake out and finds Dick's shiv. Extremely bad luck. Perry thinks about committing suicide by using the light bulb at the top of his cell. He then has some weird dream of a giant yellow bird saving him. Dick and Perry are then interviewed for a diagnosis and their lawyers attempt to post pone the trial. The Clutter home is also on sale the day before the hearing. The auction attracts a lot of people, like 5,000 and everything gets sold. In the psychiatry diagnosis, Dick and Perry had to write a biography of sorts. The trial begins and things start to go down hill for Dick an Perry.
The trial goes on and the defense has practically nothing to defend Dick and Perry. Al testifies and it seems to be the most impacting testimony. Same with Mrs.Hitchcock's statement. Perry then Dines with Don Cullivan in the Jail place and they get to talk. The next day, the trial continues and the Doctor is not allowed to elaborate on his diagnosis. If he did, Perry might have been saved a little, or at least received sympathy. I feel that the judge is bias and helps the persecution side a lot more than the defense side. He probably wants to get this over as soon as possible. Or maybe he hates Dick and Perry. Dr.Satten also researches Perry because he's doing a book for Murders without motives.
