One second, he just got here

Are you Mr Chavoret?

- Yes

- This way please

Wait a moment please

Uh, who's the real executioner?

Mr Chavoret was the executioner at Bang Kwang central prison

or otherwise known as the 'Big Tiger'

or as foreigners know it

The Bangkok Hilton'

1, 2, 3, 4, 5...

As warden of Bang Kwang prison, I welcome you sir

Does it really have to be like this?

Relax Dad

After the Minister speaks

Please say a few words

Mr Chavoret, now that the state has transitioned

from execution by gun to lethal injection

Is it a disappointment for you?

My job was always my duty

It was not my job to feel disappointed or not

Let it begin

Number one

How many executions have you performed?

I'd like to call upon the Minister of Justice

On this day, 20th October 2003

The Government is pleased to announce

the transition from the death penalty

carried out by gun

to lethal injection instead

Can number one please show us how you aim the gun

Now can I ask Number two

Do you ever miss your job?

I have fulfilled my duties already

The new law that has passed

has changed from death by gun to lethal injection

Do you think that this method of execution

is more preferable?

Better or worse

I cannot say

Cannot say or will not say?

Cannot say

My name is Chavoret Jaruboon

I am the Last Executioner

My name is Chavoret Jaruboon

I am the Last Executioner

My name is Chavoret Jaruboon

I am the Last Executioner

In front here

is the machine gun

that Mr Chavoret actually used to execute prisoners

and this is the real guitar that he used to play

when he was in a rock'n roll band 40 years ago

Good evening everyone

I welcome you all to tonight's performance by

the 'Helmet Heads'

Hey, that's the pretty girl from last night

Excuse me

I wondered if you were free tonight

to come and see our band play?

Alright

Okay

See you later then

What's there to eat?

Plenty

Careful, careful

Don't squash him

Chow

We're about to have a family together

Hey

What shall I do?

The baby's on the way

You know Bang Kwang prison?

They're recruiting prison guards

We'll have money to buy milk for the baby now

Really?

Did you get it?

Chavoret, you go first

This is Bang Kwang Central Prison

These prisoners are all hardened criminals

They are dangerous

with more than 25 year sentences

There are more of them than us

Everyone must follow regulations

Everyone must perform their duties

and must take their job seriously

Today

you are going to carry out your duties

Open the gate

Listen very carefully to the sound

If there is any sign of damage

or erosion on the metal

you'll hear the difference right away

You've just been baptized

We interrupt programming with breaking news

Chow, look at this son

John F. Kennedy has been assassinated

He was fatally shot by a sniper

while passing by in his motorcade

headed from Dallas Airport to downtown

along with Governor Connally from Texas

He's been admitted to Parkman Hospital

Hey, let's go son

As for his current condition...

- Ah, there you are - Hello

It's your birthday right?

This boy's destiny

is to work with death

Come on, roll call!

1... 2... 3... 4... 5... 6... 7... 8... 9... 10

All done boss

I need support immediately in cell block 3

What's wrong, boss?

What's going on in there?

You better watch yourself, boss

What's happening here Chavoret?

False alarm, sir

All clear, sir

Good

Aren't you going to eat, sweetheart?

The food's still warm

Here

Come in

Mr Chavoret Jaruboon

Yes, sir

Think you will work here long?

Yes, sir

I think it is time to promote you to the execution team

You start tomorrow

Your duty will be to escort death row prisoners

Can you handle that?

Prisoner Pornchai Saengsomboon

Number 517

Open

Prisoner Pornchai Saengsomboon

Number 517, sir

Open the gate

According to the sentence of

prisoner Pornchai Saengsomboon

Number 517/2511

of Bang Kwang Central Prison

sentenced to death

After appealing to the State

the Minister of Justice

has considered the case for appeal

and has come to the conclusion

that pardon is denied for Prisoner Saengsomboon

His death sentence stands

by order of the court

The Ministry of Justice

is to carry out this sentence with immediate effect

PLACE TO END ALL SUFFERING

Prisoner Pornchai

time of death 17:41 hrs

Here give him to me

Ready?

Damn it! It won't fire

Stupid gun

What's wrong with the gun?

It won't fire

It works fine boss

Let's see

Still won't fire

Officer, check the prisoner

for any sacred charms on him

Go on then

Whoa!

Tattoos all over your arse!

Found it, sir

Get it off

Protecting you, eh?

It won't fire

Damn gun just won't fire

I'll do it myself

No you can't

We have to follow protocol

Show some respect

Why don't you do it yourself

Hey

Don't let the bugger suffer

Shoot him again

Go on

He's not dead yet

Don't let him suffer

Keep shooting

Get the body down

Found something you're good at?

This is all I got for you

Get down

Down on the ground

Now!

I have the situation under control

Thank you Inspector

Make sure the director-general doesn't hear about this

or else I'm screwed

Is Chavoret here yet?

One of our men is captured inside

We need to get him out

without any casualties

and prevent the situation from getting worse

Chow

Take your men in

but be very cautious

Sak, Amnat go in first

and then use the tear gas

Yes, sir

Don't come any closer!

You want him to die?

What are you doing, honey?

I'm making papaya salad to sell to prison visitors

I'm taking the kids with me

Why do you have to do that?

These bills are spreading like cancer

I'm off to work

Hey Chow

Good timing

The Commander wants to see you at the Ministry

At the Ministry?

Shall I bring my guitar?

Chow, it's the Commander

Stop kidding around!

We're going to be on the same team now

Have a seat

Right now we are short of an executioner

and I think you're qualified

You'll get an extra 2,000 Baht each time

Pardon me, sir

What did you just say, sir?

2,000 Baht each time

Do you think you can handle it?

Children wash these oranges for mummy

Can you help me with these?

Yes, that bag there

Bring it over here

Ashes of the condemned

The heartless and brutal ones

Father Abbot

Yes?

I believe I've crossed the line today

You... need to let it go

Life, suffering and death are normal

But these died before their time

They died for their bad karma

Here, here, see

they don't have family, these ones

We had to put them in these pots

This one here was dealing drugs in schools

Teacher caught him

This one was also executed

for murdering someone over inheritance

Honey

Aren't they nice?

I bought them at the market

Tew

I'm an executioner now

Now that you're an executioner

you don't need to do this anymore

It's a habit sir

Go home and get some rest

Tonight is your first

We don't want you missing the target

Okay?

Yes, sir

Getting excited?

Mr new executioner!

- What are you doing son?
