He moves to the little town of Elmore in Arkansas and tries to establish a new identity, although he doesn't plan to give up his life of crime. Using his ten months of experience in shoe repair at the prison, Jimmy establishes a shoe shop in Elmore as a "front" and changes his name to Ralph Spencer.
