By the time Randall had arrived home from his counseling session on Monday evening, Dean had been able to contact an after-hours Social Services officer, who was able to provide a little more information as to why Randall had been scheduled to be processed surgically for the Total Reform program.
And he and Earl were also able to do a little more research on the Internet about Iowa State's Total Reform program.
Randall knew something serious was up the moment he walked in the door. Dean called out to him to join him and Earl in the study. When Randall entered the study he saw a worried look on Dean's face such as he had never seen before.
As Randall seated himself, Dean handed him the letter from Social Services. Dean and Earl waited in silence as Randall read the letter:
`June 16, 2012
Mr. Dean Anthony Inslee,
Iowa's State Total Reform Program consists of a preliminary 7 month long, comprehensive servant training program at the Social Services State Training Center in Des Moines. Upon successful completion of the training program, the Total Reform indentee spends 5 years and 4 months of hard and durable labor with Social Services Industries in Dubuque. Upon completion of term of service, the indentee is then committed to a 2-month long hospitalized counseling and exit therapy program at Cedar Rapids Social Services. Because all indentees entering the Total Reform training program must be fit and fully recovered from the processing procedures required of the hard-labor Total Reform Program and because it has been projected that the Iowa State indentee under your guardianship, Randall Jerome Inslee, will be unable to successfully complete the requirements of the `Stage One' Rehabilitative Indenturement program by the review deadline of August, 14, 2012, and shall at that time be remanded to Iowa State's Total Reform Indenturement Program, the following appointment has been set for Randall Jerome Inslee's surgical processing into the Total Reform program.
June 22, 2012, 1:30 PM Linn County Department of Social Services Health Services Division 1010 Guardian Avenue Cedar Rapids, Iowa
Postoperative care generally lasts from 3 to 4 days. Because the general public could find the nature of the surgical procedures disturbing and because indentees in the Total Reform program are routinely kept bound, nude, and cathetered in their recovery beds, visitation is discouraged by all but the indentee's chief overseer/guardian.
Failure to appear at the above appointment on time shall result in a $400 fine.
Robert Coburn Linn County Social Services Processing Regulator'
Randall was furious, "What in the hell is going on?"
Dean responded, "Do you not understand the letter?"
Randall almost spat his answer out, "This is a joke! A fucking joke!"
Dean shook his head, "I'm afraid it's not, bro."
Randall looked directly into Dean's face, "How did this happen? You said you were going to make sure I pass the `Stage One' program. How did this happen?"
"Maybe you'd like to tell me how it happened, Randy."
"What do you mean?"
Dean looked back at Randall just as intently, "I wasn't with you during your work days for the Parks Department. I didn't know you were racking up demerits left and right!"
Randall was confused, "Yeah, demerits. So what?"
Dean was just as confused by Randall's seeming unawareness of the importance of demerits, "How come you never reported to me that you were getting demerits?"
"What do you mean? I didn't report on a lot of things those asshole overseers did to us. You never cared. You just told me over and over to not let it bother me and to be respectful at all times." Randy shook his head in anger.
Dean responded, "Did I not ask you to report every infraction?"
Randall didn't answer.
Dean was getting annoyed with Randall's feigned ignorance, "Listen Randy! How many times did I tell you that you were to report every infraction marked against you and every punishment you received while on the job?"
Randall had a worried look on his face, "You told me I was to report every punishment, so that you could repeat the punishment at home as reinforcement. So whenever the overseers cited me and ordered me to unflap my butt for a paddling, I asked for demerits instead of a paddling. That way there was no punishment given to me on the job and so there was no punishment to report."
Dean shook his head, "I don't know if you thought you were being clever or what you were thinking. But do you know the significance of demerit points? I called Social Services and spoke to an afterhour's officer and he was able to inform me that you have 180 demerit points on your record. So for these past 10 months you've been getting cited for misbehavior on probably a weekly basis and you never once reported it to me!"
"The officer I spoke with didn't have access to your overseers' personal file on you, so he wasn't able to tell me what the demerits were for, but Randy, 180 demerit points is the reason they're sending you to surgery the day after tomorrow. The officer said that demerit points have to be worked off, either through extra work or punishment, that it was unlikely that that many demerit points could be worked off by August 14th and that was why they need to have you ready and healed from your processing surgery so you can be sent immediately to the Total Reform training program on August 14."
Randall shook his head with an angry look, stood up and walked briskly towards the door. Dean asked, "Where are you going?"
Randall kept walking, "Fuck this! This is my life you've messed up, Dean! Thanks a lot!"
When Randall had exited, both Earl and Dean were just as exhausted from the exchange as was Randall. Dean put his forehead in his hand and asked, "Jeeze, what in the hell are we going to do?"
Earl didn't have an answer, "This is some pretty tough shit to deal with dude. Unfortunately, I don't have anything to suggest. When Social Services states, "do this", you pretty much have to answer their call. I suppose you know that if Randall really does fail `Stage One', which is what Social Services is projecting, you will be dealt a $5000 fine as his appointed guardian."
Dean shrugged, "I know that. But that's the least of my worries right now."
Earl had sober advice, "You're right about that Dean. There's a lot to be concerned about. For one thing, I think you'd better keep an eye on Randall, because if he's planning on doing any crazy thing right now, like going into hiding, or leaving the state, there are serious, serious, consequences for such behavior. He'd almost certainly be caught and when he is the best that could happen to him is that his term of service would be doubled. But getting a life sentence for bolting isn't all that uncommon either. It depends on the judge and circumstances. Anyway, I'm advising you; Randall is stressed right now and he could do something stupid. It's kind of your duty as his overseer to protect him from getting into any deeper shit than he already is."
Dean agreed with Earl and the two of them went looking for Randall, whom they found in the basement storage area gathering clothes from his belongings in storage. When Randall noticed the two of them and then saw that they immediately left the area, Randall took it as their tacit approval of his plan to run away.
Randall did not know that what happened was that upon seeing Randall gathering clothing, Earl took Dean aside and stressed to Dean the importance of keeping Randall bound and secured until Randall was taken to his surgery appointment. Dean and Earl returned to the basement and approached Randall, each carrying social servant bindings.
Earl grabbed the unsuspecting Randall and held him by his shoulders. In the scuffle that ensued Dean and Earl managed attach a leash to his genital choke cinch, a tether to his collar, tighten his leg braces to their highest setting and bind his hands together in front of him. Both Dean and Earl ignored everything Randall was swearing and threatening as they led the bound social servant up to Dean's bedroom and strapped him down to the bed.
Randall cried, "Why are you doing this to me, Dean?"
Dean touched Randall on the head, "Because you'll never get away with running and if you were caught the consequences are severe. You are in no condition to make decisions for yourself right now, bro."
There was silence from all three men, with Dean feeling like he should be able to bring calm to the situation with soothing words, but unable to think of anything to say.
Dean and Earl simply looked down at Randall, bound to the bed, depressed at the sight. Then suddenly Randall started crying. Out loud. Dean and Earl were heartbroken and Randall cried out, "Help me Dean."
Dean nodded and spoke quietly, "I will, Randy."
After observing Randall for a bit longer, Dean spoke, "The officer I spoke with suggested that I not send Randy to work tomorrow. I will do that. I'll call our Social Service's contact person and tell them I don't want to risk sending Randall out alone."
Dean thought a bit, and then touched Earl on the shoulder. "Dude. I just remembered I have a lot going on tomorrow. Do you think you could babysit for Randy tomorrow? I'm seeing my dad and I have an appointment with an agent from Social Services on some legal issues. So I'm wondering if you could help out."
Earl nodded, "I'd be happy to help you two out at this difficult time."
Their conversation was broken by Randall suddenly crying out, "Dean, what kind of surgery? What are they going to do to me?"
Dean and Earl looked at each other. When both were driven to silence, Randall took it as a sign that they did not want him to know what was going to happen because it was not good and he asked again, in a louder voice, what was going to happen to me in surgery.
Dean stuttered, "Randall, don't worry about that now. Maybe..." Dean stopped talking, not knowing what to say.
Earl shook his head and said quietly to Dean, "I think it's crueler not tell him than to tell him."
When Randall called out again, Dean replied to Earl, "I guess you're right."
But Dean found himself unable to say anything and asked Earl, "Could you please tell him?"
Earl nodded silently. He sat on the bed, next to the bound servant and spoke in a calm voice, "They are simply going to get you ready for hard labor service. All of the boys in the Total Reform program get the same procedures done to them. Most of the things they'll be doing to you are temporary body modifications."
Earl was surprised that he was finding it difficult, as well; to explain what was going to be done to Randall in surgery.
"They'll be doing several things to you once they put you to sleep. First, they're going to be ringing you, Randy, for hard labor service. The rings they use on boys in the Total Reform program are very thick gauge hard-labor service rings. And they are large. I'll be frank. The rings they'll be putting on you aren't jewelry type rings. They're huge and thick, so they need to make large holes in both of your ears. They're three inches in diameter, bro. And they not only go in both ears, but the same kind of rings go in both of your nipples and your nose."
"They use a different kind of ring for your cock. They make a hole through your cock head that's a good bit larger than the kind of hole they make for a standard Prince Albert piercing. The part of the ring that goes through your dick head is big enough, but the rest of the ring is like a giant steel donut. I've seen it on the Total Reform boys working at Social Services Industries in Dubuque. It's huge and thick and weighs down their cocks."
As Randall sobbed, listening, tears continued to roll down his face.
Randall asked, "What are all of those rings for?"
Earl maintained a calm tone, trying to not sensationalize things, "Boys in the Total Reform program are kept under constant supervision and control every hour of every day. For your entire time there you will be either tied, tethered, or trollied, both during your 12-hour workday and your non-work hours. They use your body rings to attach leashes and trolley lines. For whatever kind of job they put you to, they have you secured. For quarry work there is a tether from your nose ring to an overhead trolley line, so you can only be on the track you're supposed to be on. If you're doing work at a desk, they tether you to it by tethers to your nipple rings. If you're scrubbing floors they leash you by your cock ring. When you're on break they tether you to your chair by your earrings. Let me tell you, they really use all those rings they put on the Total Reform boys."
"Boys in the hard labor program are so heavily ringed that they look almost like they're part human and part mechanical, especially when you see them naked and toiling away. They look like bio-mechanical robots, the way they have all that metal on their bodies, aren't allowed to talk or anything and have to keep their attention focused on the work they're doing or else get snapped."
Randall sobbed. "What do you mean, `get snapped'?"
Earl answered, "They have a short leash that is attached to your genital choke cinch at all times. It rises up from your cinch and the end of the leash hangs from off your back by means of a strap about your chest. When an overseer needs to motivate you, they come behind you and give a strong tug to the end of your leash and thus your cock root gets a really tight punishment squeeze. When they tug on your genital cinch they call it `snapping'. It's not as harsh as tasers and whips; and it still provides slacker boys with the motivation they need to perform up to speed. Whips and tasers are still used in the Total Reform program, but not as frequently."
Randall could hardly stand to hear anymore, as he writhed in distress.
Earl continued, "And they're going bell you, Randy. They pierce the base of your chin with a small ring, to which they attach your hard labor bell. All the boys in the Total Reform program are belled. The bell is three inches long with a rather narrow cylinder, but it makes a lot of noise. You'll be hearing that bell every day for five years, every time you move your head. The overseers who herd the Total Reform boys call them `jingle boys'."
Randall sobbed with each of Earl's sentences. When Earl began talking about tattoos, Dean was indignant and interrupted Earl with a question. "How in the hell can they do that? Total Reform is just a temporary program. It's not a life sentence of servitude!"
Earl explained, "The Total Reform program is, as the name implies, serious about getting rid of all bad habits in a boy. It is a multi-pronged program that is intended to have a long-range curative effect. As such it is educational; it is rehabilitative; it is punitive; and it is preventative. The tattoos are there to remind the boys, once they leave the program, for the rest of their lives, what the consequences of bad behavior are; to remind them that they could be sent back into punitive servitude at any time, especially if they ever have any serious run-ins with the law."
"Therefore, in order to help boys like Randy be ever aware of the consequences of bad behavior, they will be tatting Randy in several places on his body. All of it is intended to help you, Randy, to be on your best behavior at all times."
Dean asked, "What kind of tattoos? How many?"
Earl wasn't absolutely certain, "I believe there are six. There could be eight."
Dean, incredulous, spurted, "Six or eight tattoos?"
Earl affirmed, "Oh yes. They tat the boys with the words, Iowa State Total Reform'. The letters aren't real big, Randy, only half an inch tall. They will tattoo you with Iowa State Total Reform on your upper left back, above your right nipple, on your front upper left leg, on your right buttock, on your left wrist, and on the back of your neck."
As Randall broke down and started crying out loud. Dean shouted out "Fuck man! That is disgusting!"
Earl spoke quietly in an attempt to keep the Inslee brothers from getting hysterical, "Well, that's not the only permanent body modification that they'll be doing to Randy under surgery. They will also be branding him and removing his back molars."
Dean was angry and stood up, "Branding! Teeth removal! What the fuck are you talking about? They can't do that!" Earl remained calm, "They sure can. And it's done to boys every day who are remanded to the Total Reform program."
Dean shook his head in disbelief as Earl explained, "Randy will be getting branded with the letters IAISS on his left buttock and on his front upper right leg. It stands for Iowa State Involuntary Social Servant. Again, it's part of the preventative aspect of the program, and..."
Dean cut Earl off, "Jeeezaz man! That can't be!"
Earl only nodded his head in the affirmative and continued, "And they will also be removing Randall's two back, left and right, upper and lower, molars. Eight back teeth in all will be removed."
Dean, dazed, sat back down, as Randall's crying grew in volume. Dean asked why they removed the molars.
"For certain jobs Randy will be doing they will be fitting him with a mouthpiece, a bit actually, the kind they place in horses' mouths when they are pulling heavy loads."
Dean could only mutter, "That can't be!"
Earl assured him, "All you need do is go the Social Services website and you can see photos of a fully processed Total Reform boy. They've got them pictured and you can see all of their rings, their bell, the tattoos, the brands, and there is picture of a Total Reform boy with his mouth open so you can see his teeth. There is also a picture of a Total Reform boy with a bit in his mouth pulling a tumbrel. You can see in those pictures why they have to keep the Total Reform boys completely naked for their work because they keep them tethered, leashed, and trollied by all of their body rings."
Randall cried out both "No!" and "Why?"
Earl answered him, "They've got to do that stuff to boys like you in order to help you. That kind of stuff they do to your bodies talks directly to boys like you in ways that words cannot and will help you learn to obey the way you're supposed to." "They have found that the best way to help boys like you achieve total reform in your lives is to turn you into total work beasts. You will be turned into basically a ringed, tatted, belled and branded draft animal. It's been proven to really help boys like you."
Dean attempted to change the hopeless tone of the conversation, "In the morning I'll be looking into this. There's got to be a way out of this. I'll talk to my buddies at the courthouse."
Earl attempted to bring reality back into the picture, "You have to remember, Dean, the Social Service system is impervious to all of that wheeling and dealing that takes place in the criminal justice system, where cops make deals with attorneys and attorneys make deals with judges. The Social Service system operates in its own world and Social Servants, whether indentured voluntarily, criminally, or punitively, are subjected to a hard set of federal regulations that are pretty much untouchable."
"And that is why social servants, even those indentured punitively and criminally, have a certain respect in the eyes of society that common criminal jailbirds do not."
"And that is why you, Randy, need not be depressed over any of this, because you will, in the end, be working for the good of society. You will be serving society. So when you wake up from surgery and see your body weighted down with all those rings, your chin bell dangling and jingling, your tattoos and brands permanently marking your body and all of your back teeth removed, you need to stand tall. Be proud of your hard labor rings, bell, tats, brands, and your mouth readied for the bit, because you really will be serving society. You won't be like some selfish con sitting in a cell reading library books. You will actually be doing good for the benefit of everyone and that ought to be a source of real pride for you."
As Randall cried, Earl advised Dean, "You should really be encouraging Randy to accept his new status and not offering him false hope just a few hours before he'll be on the surgeon's table getting branded, tattooed, and detoothed for life."
When Randall called out to Dean, Dean had a tear in his eye and didn't know what to say.
Earl filled the void, "You hang in there, Randy! Once you're back home from surgery and see how different you look, you will begin to see yourself as someone really special. Not only will you look really different from free boys your age, but you will really `BE' a different kind of boy. When you see yourself all ringed, belled, tatted, branded, and detoothed, you'll know that you really are different from free boys."
"And then when you finally do join all of the other Total Reform boys out at the hard labor farms in Dubuque and actually get to toil away 12 hours a day with hundreds of other naked, ringed, collared, cinched, branded, and tattooed, boys; all leashed, trollied, tethered, and bitted; you'll begin to see how fulfilling a life of hard labor can be. Total Reform boys share a silent and glorious camaraderie as they do the work they are supposed to be doing. Total Reform boys have no choice but to obey and that's the kind of direction you need in your life at this time Randall. You should just accept it. It's not a bad thing. It's a pure and admirable life."
"Boys like you need the extra control that the Total Reform program gives. And out in Dubuque you will be with hundreds of other boys just like yourself; boys who need a program of hard labor, constant supervision and strict discipline. Such a program turns you into strong and service oriented citizens. You have no choice but to get with the program, but in the end the lessons you learn in the hard labor program will reward you for a lifetime."
