It also helps if you don't travel in threes, and don't wear a striped uniform, Domino mask and a little cap with your prisoner number on it.
That's what always gave the Beagle Boys away. I could always tell the Beagle Boys from civilians instantly.
Fun fact: In the UK, prisoners wore uniforms with arrows on them, as seen in the movie
Gandhi
. The arrows pointed out good places to hit the prisoners to prison guards, thus making pounding the daylights out of prisoners much easier.

"Utter" is one of those archaic legal usages that you sometimes run across.
It means in a general way, "to issue", which is what "utter" means in the more usual sense of "speak or say", but in legal language you can "utter" a forged check or a threat as well as words. I assume that waiving a weapon around would be uttering a threat, even if you were silent while you did it. Officials can "utter" as well, for example, by posting rules and regulations.

I dunno, for the gown, it kind of has a built-in story, "I said, you want to put the tube WHERE? And I stone cold started running" Either they'll understand and let you keep running or they'll be wincing so hard, you'l get a headstart...

When my client escaped from prison he was wearing shackles.
To remove the shackles, he drove up to a Home Depot, with a blanket concealing his prison uniform, and caught the attention of a store employee who was gathering carts. He told the employee that he was handicapped and couldn't walk. He talked the employee into going into the store and purchasing a hacksaw with money he provided. The employee returned with the hacksaw, change and receipt.
I have always wondered what the employee's response was when he learned he was duped by a prison escapee who was being sought for murder.

The thing is, if you are wearing a heart monitor, you will fall prey to the sonic batarang.

Exactly. I need to know if I am in my zone while I am running away from the police. If you fall out of your zone you are no longer doing any beneficial cardio work and you may as well pack it in.
/they give you time to stretch first, right?

It's been tried. Though you need a female outfit to trick the guards.

If he hides in the marshes he can wait for Pip and terrorize him into stealing some pork pies and a file from Joe's blacksmith forge. It worked out well for Pip. No not really. I mean was Pip really happy? I guess in the end he was so it's all good.

If your guards are that stupid, well...guess that's why we haven't got a British Empire any more, huh?
