Jimmy Lee Bayliss represents those people who know about environmental issues but try to balance being good to the environment, in addition to achieving financial goals. Baylis doesn't have to work for Drake McBride.... he does it for the money. It is Baylis who warns Drake that Section 22 is a wildlife preserve and that it is risky to drill there.... McBride's scheme makes him nervous, and he knows that he could go to jail if they get caught. Still the thought of making money causes him to take extreme measures like setting the wildfire to keep the field trip participants away from Section 22.
