Fagin's Trial and Last Night

Fagin is arrested and put on trial for his crimes. He is found guilty and sentenced to death. On his last night in Newgate prison, he is visited by Mr. Brownlow and Oliver. Fagin, now a broken and terrified man, raves and clutches at Oliver, but he provides the location of the hidden papers that prove Oliver's identity. The scene is a powerful depiction of a condemned man's psychological torment and the final defeat of evil. Oliver, despite everything, prays for Fagin's soul.
