[Jim helps an escaped prisoner who is dying of thirst]
Francisco Cortez: You're not going to send me back are ya?
Jim Lester: Why shouldn't I?
Francisco Cortez: Because I didn't do the things I'm charged with. I didn't do it. I swear I didn't! I was railroaded. You believe me, don't you? Fifteen years in that hellhole - fifteen years for something I never done!
