The architect of the entire plan who entered the prison specifically to rescue his brother.
In a cruel paradox, the character who achieves the most profound escape is one who never leaves the prison walls: Charles Westmoreland, the alleged D.B. Cooper. Westmoreland possesses the physical key to freedom—$5 million hidden away—and the motivation (to see his dying daughter). Yet, when the escape plan is ready, he is mortally wounded. He chooses to stay behind, bleeding out in the prison pipe, and gives Michael the location of the money. In that moment, Westmoreland achieves what no sprint across a yard can grant: escape from desire. For years, the money and his daughter were his obsession, a form of mental imprisonment. By letting go—by sacrificing his chance for the group—he liberates himself from the greed and guilt that defined him. He dies a free man inside a prison, while his companions live as slaves to the next obstacle.
