You weren't supposed to have sympathy for him maybe even more. But you and your friends had tired him up after he had safed their assessment because they couldn't trust him after he had tried to kill them multiple times before and killed someone. However they were caught up in a storm and water was coming in where he was tired up and he was shouting for help. He couldn't free himself his hands tied too tightly and haven't eaten in days. So despite ypur friends protests you made her way to the bottom of the boat to help him.
