Another jail patient having some dental work done

A dentist (Judge Wilkerson) holds a patient (jail officials) on a chair (witness chair), as he prepares to extract the "truth" from him. An X-ray machine on the side is meant to monitor for "signs of corruption," and a newspaper on the floor reads the headline: Druggan Scandal - Terry's trips to the "dentist."
