The Warden rips down the poster, revealing the hole in the wall. |
He throws a rock in frustration and realizes it went through. He then tears it open and finds the hole. |
Captain Hadley has a heart attack and retires long before Andy escapes. |
Hadley is still the lead guard and is arrested after Andy escapes because of his abuse of prisoners.

Red goes on a whim to the place where Andy told him about. He looks around for days and eventually finds the box with the money and the letter from Andy. |
Andy specifically tells Red where to go and what rock to look under to find the package. |
Andy crosses the border in McNary. |
It is Fort Hancock.
|
Andy had a cellmate for eight months. He complained of a draft, presumably from the hole in the wall. |
