    Agent Mahone tries to lure the escapees by targeting an imprisoned L.J. as Michael and Lincoln plan another breakout. Abruzzi, C-Note, and Sucre flee on their own, while Tweener finds a ride. Bellick and Pope face tribunal for their roles in the breakout. Another awesome episode, Prison Break is getting better and better. I'm really starting to like, Mahone eventhough I don't want any of them to get killed and stuff. I liked seeing LJ again after his long absence from the show. This season is really fast and I love it like this. Can't wait to watch more of this season.moreless

  • One interesting plot and Setups!!!!

    First, from the writers perspective:

    They needed to build some plot, like for example how almost all the convicts will be in Utah. So make sense beginning with David and T-bag, give time for sucre and C-note Storylines, maybe in the next episodes.

    As expected, thw writers wrote some miracle and now t-bag have is hand back, not entirely functional, of course. If this was a movie, only one scene was necessary to explain all.

    Pope and Bellick lost their jobs, that is satisfying, mainly because of Bellick, he deserved. Now he can be a rogue agent and hunt Michael.

    Another Objective was Michael and Mahone confrontation, which was easy to do, since LJ Storyline could be easily tied to them, for that to happen.

    My point of View:

    All Bellick scenes was satisfatory, mainly the last scene, that was excellent. T-Bag scene seems to be a filler only. DAvid Scenes too, since he could appear in Utah, without any scenes explaining how he arrived there.

    Michael and Lincoln tentative was interesting, only near the end and the cliffhager was fine too.

    Other than that, I think we dont have a great episode, but a good one.moreless

    Another action filled episode with the prisoners not in the Prison that I found to be very well done. Micheal and Lincoln getting seen and then running away might get a little old if it happens every episode, but I did enjoy that at least there attempt of getting LJ out of custody failed.

    Mahone is devoloping as a fantastic character. I could see him becoming one of the biggest (likely the biggest) pain in the side of Micheal and Lincoln this season. Figuring out the "Otis" riddle at the last second was really well done. I love that kind of writing and seeing it all come together on the screen.

    Billick and the Pope has big devolopments in this episode as well. The power structure that we know from last season has crashed and burned in the beginning of season 2 and with Malone acting the way he is acting I dont mind the shake-up at all. there are still some things that need to be mentioned - Haywire/Female President but right now I like them setitng up these key days where they have just escaped.

    Also interesting how everyone is on there own now. Itll be interesting to see how much the other 6 escapees get involved with this season with Micheal and Lincoln clearly being the main charatcers of the show.moreless

    • T-Bag (to Dr. Gudat): I'll tell you something I know is true. The Indians here, the Tomahawk variety, some of them believed, well used to believe before most of them were slaughtered, that when a warrior kills another in battle, he absorbs that fallen warrior's spirit. So this isn't the end for you, Doc. You're with me now. Edit
    • (On the phone) Lincoln: I'm worried about you. I'm sorry for what you're going through. LJ: Thanks. Word is, after this hearing because of my dad being so high profile, they're, they're shipping me to an adult facility in Kingman, Arizona. Lincoln: Yeah well, hopefully that ain't going to happen. Edit
    • (on the phone) LJ: Hey, this uh, this fed came by and talked to me today. Lincoln: Yeah? LJ: He wanted me to get my dad to turn himself in. Lincoln: Well, knowing your dad, I doubt that's going to happen. Edit
