The warden finally confesses to his plot to increase Leone's jail time. The prison guards break into the execution chamber and point their Heckler & Koch HK33 and Winchester Model 70 rifles and Ithaca 37 shotguns at Leone, but if he is shot he will trip the switch and kill Drumgoole. The guards organize into a response team and secure heavy weaponry. Leone activates the generator and secures his hand to the switch. Enraged, Leone breaks into Drumgoole's office and takes him to the execution chamber and straps him to the electric chair. Dallas badly beat up apologizes to Leone and as Leone tries to help him Manly attacks Leone from the water and Dallas then rips an electric cable off the railing and electrocutes Manly in the water taking his own life as well. Leone breaks free burning Wiley, one of the guards, in the steam and knocking out Mastrone he then fights the sadistic guard Manly and beats him up and pushes him into the same pool of water Dallas fell into. The warden then leaves the sadistic guards to physically abuse Leone by pushing his face into a cloud of hot steam from the pipes. Dallas tries to attack the warden but the corrupt sadistic prison guards beat him up and push him into a pool of water. He then tells Dallas he'll be sent back to the prison's general population, and since they now know he's a snitch the inmates will kill him. But the warden betrays Dallas telling him he doesn't make deals with escaped prisoners. Dallas agreed with the warden to lead Leone into a trap only if the warden would give Dallas an early release from prison. Dallas offers to help Leone escape to warn Melissa but instead delivers Leone to the utility basement right into Drumgoole's hands where he finds out that Drumgoole wanted him to try to escape so he would receive a mandatory 10-year sentence for the second escape attempt and the inmate who was going to rape Melissa was just a corrupt prison guard called Mastrone who was part of the warden's scheme to set Leone up. Whilst Leone recovers in the prison infirmary, one night a stranger, an inmate who claims to be an old friend from Treadmore, says that Chink has paid him to rape and murder Melissa. Since Leone didn't kill Chink one of Chink's friends stabs Leone from behind with a shank. Leone fights and defeats Chink, but he spare's Chink's life because he knows that's precisely what Drumgoole wants. Upon release, the warden wants an excuse to slap Leone with more time, so he allows prisoner Chink Weber (Sonny Landham) and his bullying friends to kill First-Base in the gym. The warden orders that the letters sent to him from his girlfriend Melissa be stashed away but as Leone is released Braden the good conscientious prison guard secretly delivers them to Leone. Drumgoole has them watch as inmates destroy the car and Leone is subsequently sent to solitary confinement for six weeks. After Leone reluctantly allows First-Base to start the car he refuses to turn it off and drives the Mustang out of the garage. The foursome refurbish a Ford Mustang, which Eclipse nicknames "Maybelline". Leone befriends fellow prisoners Dallas (Tom Sizemore), Eclipse (Frank McRae) and First-Base (Larry Romano). Leone went to the press about the warden's treatment of his prisoners, resulting in Drumgoole's transfer to Gateway and Leone serving in minimum security before his transfer. Leone escaped because his mentor and friend was dying Leone was refused even one hour to see him. Drumgoole explains that Leone will serve hard timeLeone was the only person to escape from Treadmore and did so on Drumgoole's watch. One night while sleeping in his cell, guards arrive and forcibly take Leone to maximum security Gateway Prison run by Warden Drumgoole (Donald Sutherland). Melissa drives him back dropping him off at prison and gives him a lucky charm necklace. He also spends time with his girlfriend Melissa (Darlanne Fluegel) and he goes to the park playing football with kids in the neighbourhood. He occasionally spends time outside prison in his garage fixing cars and looking at pictures of his childhood and high school football years and pictures of him with his father. Frank Leone (Sylvester Stallone), a skilled mechanic and football player, in Hoboken, New Jersey is a model prisoner nearing the end of his sentence in Norwood, a low security prison.
