Dr. Henry 'Indiana' Jones, Jr.: I've busted out of prisons designed by the most creative minds...
Greasy Inmate: What are you in for, old timer? Boring someone to death?
Dr. Henry 'Indiana' Jones, Jr.: Oh, heh, you don't believe me huh? This cracker box ain't nothing. The Germans. Now they built prisons. When I was serving in the Belgian army during the Great War, I was captured just North of the Somme. After a very terrible battle. Many of my friends were dead and some of them missing. I was lucky. But I didn't know how long it would last...
