-Hi.
-Hi. -I'm a little nervous.
-It's okay. I didn't sleep last night.
I'm running on 3 hours of sleep. -Oh, wow.
-Yeah, yeah, yeah. I've been incarcerated
for 8 1/2 years. I will be released on Thursday,
December 28th. I've been kind of packing things
in my room, and it's kind of funny because
I started packing 2 years ago. Louisiana, we're not used
to this snow. I'm excited. I'm super excited, super nervous
but in a good nervous. It's ready for it to ...
It's actually happening. All right, party people. Heading out? Next time y'all see me,
I will have Gypsy Rose. I'm beside myself. It feels like I'm having
a new baby, you know? It feels great. I just hope she feels
comfortable, and we're not ... it's not too much for her, but hopefully she's not
too overwhelmed. That's my only concern. Hey, baby.
I got you on speakerphone. Okay. I'm driving right now. We're driving to Chillicothe
to come get you. -Oh, okay. Awesome.
-You're excited? -I'm very excited.
-It's funny. Christy, when I was leaving,
she said, "Look, when you pick Gypsy up,
do FaceTime. We want to FaceTime her,"
and your dad goes, "Can't he have a couple minutes
by himself with his wife?" -That's right.
-That's right. -Okay. I love you.
-I love you too. Mwah. -Mwah. Bye.
-Bye, baby. I'm a little bummed out because
Ryan's going, and I'm not. But I'm super excited
she's coming out. She's coming out.
She wants Ryan to get her. We're totally cool with that.
They're going to come tomorrow. Tomorrow night she'll be
with us, and it freaks me out. I'm overwhelmed because I never
in a million years thought
that this day would come. Well, guess this is nice as I'm
going to look, as nice as it gets.
I'm so nervous. Nerves are bad. Just the fact
that I text the Major, and he never text me back
makes me worried. There he is. I can do that.
Game time. Game time. If we are followed, I think
I can lose them in some streets. How you doing, buddy? Yeah, I got you, boss.
Let's see. Off. There you go. Thank you, sir.
Yes, sir. All right. Double doors
right through there. All right. So how's she doing?
She nervous? Yeah? -The boots do not fit.
-The boots don't fit? -The boots don't fit!
-Oh, no. Oh, my god. Everything that
I'm wearing is so small. -I told you. Let me get a kiss.
-Mwah. -Love you.
-I love you. I'm ready to go. You look so good.
You look so good. Okay. The car is moving. Oh, my god. Yeah, baby, we're out.
We're out. Oh, my god. Oh, it's so ...
feels so weird being in a car. Yeah. I get to touch your leg.
I missed you. I missed you too. -You're free.
-I'm free. Woo!
This car is going really fast! Yeah. Hit that box button
down there at the bottom. -Okay.
-All right. Which one you want? -Instagram.
-Okay. Instagram's on the home screen. Oh, okay. Thank you.
Aw, that's so crazy. Look at that. I feel like, ever since my case
was all over the media, all over the news, people have been
on this journey with me. It's cold. Hi. -What took you so long?
-Hi. You made it. Safe and sound,
just like I said. -Little scared?
-A little bit. Yeah? Little bit. It was a little
scary there for a second. Look at you.
You look beautiful, baby. Thank you. -You're free.
-I know. -Oh, I'm so happy for you. Mm.
-I missed you guys. I missed you too. I think that I've outgrown
this prison version of myself that I think a lot of people
have come to associate me with. I think what I'm really
searching for in my life is a purpose for my life.
To be perfectly honest, I am so sick and tired
of talking about my past. I'm ready to talk about
the future and what's ahead. -All right. One, two, three.
-Three. Ah! Hey! Wow! [ Chatter ] -Wow.
-That was cool. -That was good.
-Okay. Sir, my name is Mike Stanfield, and I was her attorney
during the case. I guess what I would like
is just some clarification as to why she needs
to travel directly to Louisiana. This was supposed
to be a good day. A lot of my friends and family have traveled out of state
to see me. Our plans was to stay
a few days in Kansas City and drive back on the 1st
to Louisiana. We just kind of wanted
to get together, share some quality time for
a few days before we drove back. We get a call from Jefferson
City Probation and Parole Office saying that they're
my parole officer in Missouri, and they're directing me to go
straight back to Louisiana. Don't even stop in Kansas City.
And I'm in the middle of it, not knowing whether I have
to basically get in a car and go straight to Louisiana
right now or go in the morning
or not at all. I'm like,
"Why does my instructions have to be different
than anyone else's?" because to me,
I'm just another average bear, and I guess I'm getting
a huge culture shock. So ... Okay, so the issue is, is you just want her
out of the state of Missouri? -This is [Indistinct].
-Hey, he's calling [Indistinct] right now. This is easy. This is easy. [Indistinct]
let's just give him ... I just need a minute, okay? That's why I kept asking
the question. I'm not understanding
what the deal is here. All right. What if they're going
to send me back? They aren't going
to send you back? I'm so sorry! I didn't want ... -Don't be sorry!
-I'm sorry! I fulfilled my end
of what my obligations are. I do not feel free right now. I feel like I am
in a different form of prison.
