Staying out of Prison: Life on Tag

Sam applies for a job at a pork pie factory, but will his tag prevent him taking it?

That is in case anyone comes in this house.
Well, I’ve been in jail, yeah, I know what people are like.
People are savage people in this world.
I may have just taken someone’s car.
Why do I still keep making the same mistakes now
that I was making when I was 14?
BEEPING
Hello, my tag box has just gone off.
I’m in the building.
This is the point where you hate being on tag
because you get stupid phone calls saying you’re breaching your tag.
Things have been going well for 24-year-old Reese
and his girlfriend…
They’re going to keep me on tag for another four weeks. OK.
And then I’m off tag.
..until last night.
When the police came, they looked really pissed off
cos they’ve got this information about Reese
wanting to strangle the girlfriend.
They came in in full force,
straight to Reese’s room.
Like, bam, bam, bam. “Open the door, open the door.
“Is Reese in there?”
They came in with the Taser and all of that.
It looks really dramatic.
Reese’s girlfriend made a serious allegation against him
and he’s been arrested.
