Maybe hes not so different from his dear old Dad.
Belkar's choices were:
1) Stay in prison being bored.
2) Go along with Roy.

Belkar HATES being bored.

This isn't compulsion, its a safeguard to prevent Belkar from getting away. Belkar really doesn't have to do anything to help. IF Belkar does nothing to help, and Roy uses the command word, THEN its compulsion.
