I have to trim my nails every other week or so, or I start breaking them working with my hands. My nails would definitely not look like that after three months.

Good point about the natural light in the cell. Pitch blackness is not going to enable video recording without night vision cameras. 'Windowless cell' is a blatantly false description.

The soldier kissing the pretend prisoner is a saccharine touch. Not an act I recall experiencing when I was held captive (including 4 months in solitary confinement and suicide watch, in which you are not supplied so much as a piece of paper, far more tortuous than solitary confinement), and frankly, would have considered a terrifying sexual assault. Surprisingly he returns the kiss. Perhaps they know each other?

He's remarkably plump for being starved for days at a time.

I agree. It's a staged event.

Thanks!
