He was denied medical care (according to him) until his captors found out what a prize they had in an admiral's son.
And he agreed to tell them whatever they wanted to hear. I don't blame him for that. I would probably have done the same.

I would submit that Seaman 3rd Class Smith wouldn't have been granted that.
