He thinks that no one "escapes" Mayfield in any reasonable sense, any more than characters in books escape novels, or SL avatars escape the computer environment. He's not sure what would be involved in an "escape" for a Mayfield resident, but he's pretty sure the answer is not one anyone wants to hear. For example, he's not really looking forward to finding out that the only way he could "escape" would be to be downloaded into another body, like Lucrezia into Agatha.]
