As the helicopter crashed, Elias tried to save Rorke from falling off. However, because the helicopter was too damaged to carry all of them, Elias made what he would call his hardest decision. He dropped Rorke, and saved the others. Surprisingly, Rorke survived the fall and was captured by the Federation. They used extreme and exotic torture methods from an Amazon Tribe, which according to Elias, is divided into three stages involving breaking his body by feeding him foods mixed with poisons from exotic plants and then moves to his mind and soul.
