Well if you wanted to help the enemy... but I'm thinking more like if you don't want to be a prisoner you can always recall back to Sanctuary. Of course this is going to set you back from your squad. Of course you could always take a HART back to the action but, you'd of been released in 8 minutes anyway when the holding cell is gased allowing you to respawn at your nearest friendly spawning tube. The process of freeing the prisoners would be as simple as having a Hacker hack the lock (not from your cell of course). The whole point of captivity is really to help empahsize progress. If you can capture your enemy rather then killing them you'll end up doing more harm to your enemy since you'll have effectively removed a soldier from battle for a longer period of time and, possibly their squad too if they attempt a rescue. The trade off is that a medic has to get to them to capture them and, in the heat of battle that could turn your medic into a prisoner.
