Captain Darrow

"Excuse me general, but what about the fuckin' money?"

- Darrow worried about his pay.

Captain Darrow is one of General Hummel's henchmen in The Rock. He and Captain Frye got their first mission under Hummel in Alcatraz when he toke over the island and took hostages. One night, as security around the island was breeched, Darrow along with other marines massacre an entire seal team sent to retake the island. After the battle, Darrow suggested that Hummel execute a few hostages for the Seal teams interference. As Stanley Goodspeed disables some VX rockets, Darrow captures the F.B.I. doctor at knife point because he "would take pleasure in guttin' him". The very morning, a VX missile fires, but Hummel turns the missile off course to hit water instead. Darrow angered by this brings his other marines to see his commander. Just as General Hummel called it quits, Darrow wanted to launch the last VX rocket anyway and he killed the general. In the lower lighthouse, Darrow prepared to duel with Goodspeed, when the doctor had a trump card. Goodspeed asked whether Darrow liked Rocket Man, the Elton John song. Darrow said he hated the song but Stanley said he brought because the captain was indeed the Rocket Man. Goodspeed then fired the missile, sending Darrow out the window onto a post, where the captian is impaled, stone dead.
