My mother and my father in the cell with me.

We celebrated New Year's together.

Yeah, they had already visited prior, so they knew what it was like.

But sleeping over was just something, you know, crazy.

They never thought it could happen.

But, yeah, down there, anything's possible.

So being all those years in Ecuadorian prison, I think it made me the person I am today.

And I am able to read people a lot easier, a lot better.

I was in a lot of moments where, you know, tense moments or, you know, being able to sit down and talk with people that are basically serial.

Right.

And you have to live with these people and learn how to.

Maneuver around them, you know, especially when you're living in a cell with them and you're close proximity.

I'm just able to relate to people a lot better.

I feel I'm able to pick up on situations differently.

And what I took out of being in prison down there is, you know.

Anything is possible.

You know, prison isn't the end of it.

If you want to be somebody, you can.

Now, there's people that love prison.

I saw it.
