Episode notes
Fannie is sent off to the inescapable confines of the penitentiary--a "Puritan vision of hell" --where she suffers starvation and abuse at the hands of sadistic GUARD LEWIS. As despondent the circumstance presents itself, Fannie plans her escape, nonetheless. After consulting with Cecil and initiating the first female riot in American history, Fannie sets a course of feigned insanity and a gruesome, unimaginable act of "breaking out," which solidifies her legacy once and for all in the great halls of injustice.
Dedicated to Dr. George Anthony Zeller (1858-1938 ), whose vision and journals inspired this tale.
