Northeastern put together its only scoring drive at that point returning the ensuing kickoff to midfield, and taking advantage of a pass interference call at the Crimson 15 to obtain a crucial first down. Quarterback Ron Ferullo broke over from the one to complete the 52-yard march...

At one point de Sica, fresh from the torture room, is dragged back to his cell by two guards. A fellow prisoner walks by him away from the camera, then turns to stare. The camera zooms with unbelievable rapidity or rather, jolts-into his face, and zooms out to a long shot as the man begins running to cells, banging...
