"If I'm going to have a past, I prefer it to be multiple choice Ha ha ha!"

As the psychiatrist in charge of mental health services at TFX Penitentiary, I have been asked to comment on a concerning incident involving one of our inmates over the weekend.

Prisoner #1101, Jack Oswald, was incarcerated for attempted burglary 18 months ago before being transferred to TFX due to overcrowding at his original correctional facility upstate. Upon arrival at TFX, he was subjected to the standard remolecularization process into a mid-sized female doll for easy storage. Jack has been a model prisoner during his time here. He is non-violent and cooperative and even made several failed attempts to establish a comedy night to aid prisoner morale. Their case is currently up for review based on good behavior.

The inmate was helping to repaint the recreation room when they were accidentally knocked from a table into a tin of purple paint. As with all damaged inmates/dolls, they were taken to the workshop for maintenance, where most of the paint was rinsed off but, due to some clogging of Jack's joints, he was disassembled and his separate pieces placed in the cleaning machine used for gently cleansing dollified inmates who become soiled by dirt or organic residue. The machine works much like a washing machine for clothing, submerging the prisoners while tumbling them through a chamber of soft rubber bristles.

Inmates are not to be subjected to this machine for longer than 20 seconds at a time due to the overly stimulating nature of the process, a ceaseless tickling sensation over every square inch of skin at once, made worse by the helplessness of limb removal. Just a short time is described as torturous. After setting the machine running, the guard became distracted and clocked out of their shift. That was Friday.

The inmate was still within the active machine when staff returned on Monday morning. He was quickly extracted and reassembled. The bleach the guard used as a cleaning agent, which the inmate was submerged in for around 64 hours, has rendered his plastic skin white and caused discoloration to his hair and lips. Physically, his plastic shell appears at least undamaged.

But the mental damage... He has yet to stop laughing. I've kept him under observation in my office for days. He hasn't stopped laughing once. He hasn't slept. One dreads to think what has happened to his mind after being subjected to such sensory overload for so long, sensing his divided pieces tumbling chaotically over each other. The guard offered apologies for his lapse of memory, saying that everyone has a bad day from time to time.

In light of this unfortunate incident and given the inmate's prior record of good behavior, I give my recommendations to the review board to remolecularize the inmate back into his human, male body and release him back into society. He is unlikely to be of further risk to the public. His rehabilitation is now a psychiatric, not criminal one. I will continue to monitor his case at Arkham and do what I can. We have put his body together - it is up to me to reassemble his mind.

I can't stop hearing his laughter.

Sincerely,

Dr. Quinzel
