This was later confirmed when Paul brought John Coffey to heal Melinda, as they all heard her swear then. Of course, Melinda's swearing was not typical, but was a symptom of her brain tumor.

Answer: Cold Mountain

The Green Mile was "E" Block. Death Row. This section on a prison is usually a horrid place for all intents and purposes.

In this film, humanity is at its best among these inmates and guards.

Answer: Percy Wetmore

After Percy stepped on Mr. Jingles, Paul and Brutal decided to teach him a lesson. Once Percy saw that Mr. Jingles was healed, he angrily confronted Paul and Brutal in the execution room. To scare him, Paul and Brutal forced Percy into the electric chair and made him promise to apply to Briar Ridge if they let him be out front for Del's execution. Toot-Toot also sat in the chair during rehearsals, but he was a trusty, not a guard. Of course, Bitterbuck, Del, and John Coffey sat in the chair when they were executed.

Answer: Dean

Paul, Brutal, and Dean were the first guards on E Block to see Mr. Jingles. When they realized that the mouse was in the restraining room, they knew he would be chewing the padding out of the walls. But the restraining room was also a storage room, and all the junk in there had to be cleaned out before they could find the mouse. Dean stood by the door with a mop in case he ran out, but Mr. Jingles was nowhere to be seen. "Three grown, men, outsmarted by a mouse!"

Answer: If they left a light on at night

In his cell, John Coffey was read the typical new prisoner drill by Paul. Paul asked if he had any questions, and John asked if they left a light on after bedtime, because he was sometimes scared of the dark in a strange place. Paul replied that they did have lights on at night, but everyone thought it was a rather strange question from a convicted murderer. When John was to be executed, he didn't want the hood over his face because he was scared of the dark.
