    Details/Progress (To point A to B) - (6/10). Little progress. Michael and Lincoln are In Mexico and T-bag is free to kill who he wants, Sucre are trying to find him, Mahone are pursuing Michael again just the usual.

    Plot Details/Holes- (10/10). Didnt notice logical flaws.

    Drama - (7/10). A nice discussion between Lincoln and Michael. C-Note is free. T-bag continues to be crazy.

    Suspense/Tension - (6/10). No one is in danger, the only tension was present in the beginning.

    Surprises/Shocks - (5/10). Dont expect any surprises, C-Note freedom.

    Time and Scene Management - (5/10). Filler episodes, only the beginning advanced a little.

    Beginning - (7/10). Sara, Michael and Lincoln destination, Sucre and a failed attempt.

    Complication Phase - (5/10). Nothing complicated.

    Climax - (4/10). Poor, I didnt find it.

    Ending - (5/10). Nothing important here.

    What I liked - Hard to say.

    What I Didnt Liked - This episode was a filler.

    Sara surrenders to the F.B.I. in order to allow Michael and Lincoln to escape to Panama. Bellick forces Sucre to search for Westmoreland's money with him. C-Note agrees to testify against Mahone in exchange for freedom. Another awesome episode, not as good as the last episode but still very good. I love the scene were Michael and Linc are having a fight type thing, it's so funny. I can't stop laughing everytime I watch this episode. I also love this episode because of Sucre, Bellick and T-Bag again, I don't why I find it so funny when we are after the money but i do. Another awesome episode andvery entertaining.moreless

    As Sara drives towards the shipping dock to meet Michael and Lincoln, she realises she has company. Mahone and Lang are hot on her trail. There's only one thing she can do. Having taken a call from Michael and told him she's boarded the ship where he's waiting for her, she pulls the car over and hands herself in. By the time Michael realises what's happened, it's too late to go back. He and Lincoln are already on their way to Panama Meanwhile, T-Bag reclaims his millions and continues on his murderous rampage, with Sucre and Bellick still in pursuit; C-Note is reunited with his family when he agrees to testify against Mahone in exchange for a place in the witness protection programme; and Kim's superior revises his plan, leaving him to charge Mahone with one final task. As the consequences of the escape start to catch up with him, Michael hits hard times. He finds his chance to put things right when, looking online for news about Sara, he stumbles across a tip-off supposedly from Sucre on europeangoldfinch.net. T-Bag's in Panama City. Lincoln's far from convinced by Michael's idea that this is the time to go after him, insisting that they need to come up with a plan. He heads down to the cabin of their newly acquired yacht to grab some drinks only to find Michael gone when he returns. But is Michael about to walk into one of Mahone's traps?moreless

    • It seems strange that Michael would need to tattoo a picture of Christ inside a rose so he could remember the name of his own mother, Christina Rose. Edit
    • When the ship that Michael and Lincoln are on leaves the dock it is going backwards when it should be going forwards. Edit
    • When Michael and Lincoln get off the ship in Panama, Michael's right arm is showing the tattoo. In the closeup it's his left arm. Edit

    • Kim: Forgive me for asking, sir, but couldn't we be doing this in my office? It'd be much more comfortable. Pad Man: I felt we needed to speak freely. For the next several hours, this is what those in the intelligence community refer to as a "blind spot." Something to do with the position of the sun, I'm told. Disrupts long-distance recording devices. Kim: If I may apologize again, sir, for the unfortunate outcome with the president. I know how important she was to our interests, and I assure you that moving forward, I'll- Pad Man: You won't be moving anywhere until you can explain to me how this happened. Kim: The brothers; they're making it- Pad Man: Still alive? Kim: Yes. It appears they were able to flee the country. Pad Man: To where? Kim: Mr. Mahone seems to believe they're in Panama. Pad Man: Does our Mr. Mahone know where exactly in Panama they are? Kim: Not yet. Why? Pad Man: How much do you know about Sona, Mr. Kim? Kim: Only what I've been given clearance on. Pad Man: Perhaps what our situation requires, is a change in strategy. Edit
    • Wheeler: Mr. Franklin, good afternoon. This is Richard Sullins, Director of Internal Affairs at the FBI. Sullins: Which means whenever one of our people does something wrong, it's my job to make it right. C-Note: How right are we talking about? Sullins: Well, let's be clear, you are a convicted felon. You broke out of a state penitentiary, there's only so much I can do. C-Note: Well, there's only so much I can say. Now, I'm sorry if I seem a little bit skeptical. But the last time a federal agent came up in here offering me a deal, there was a string attached... that I was supposed to put around my neck. Sullins: I've been authorized to, uh, offer you a reduced sentence in exchange for your testimony against Agent Mahone. Instead of 18 years, you'll be looking at 18 months. C-Note: 18 months? Hey, you know what? That man tried to kill me. So as soon as he finds out that I'm singing, I probably won't even last 18 days. Sullins: Mr.Franklin... C-Note: He threatened my family! Now, I need to be out there protecting them. So until you can offer me something like that... I'm not testifying to a damn thing. Guard! Sullins: Free man. You and your family. Witness protection, fresh start. C-Note: Clean record? Sullins: Spick-and-span. Edit
    • Lincoln: You know for what it's worth, no one forced Sara to do what she did. Michael: Whatever gets you through the night. Lincoln: What the hell does that mean? I didn't ask you to use her. Michael: It's not that simple. Lincoln: Whatever gets you through the night buddy. Michael: You know what amazes me, Linc? Nothing ever registers with you. Ever. It just rolls right off your back, doesn't it? We ruined Sara's life and it's like you don't even care. Lincoln: Is that what you think? Michael: We're here and Sara's back there in prison. Does that seem fair to you? Lincoln: None of it is fair. Just don't make this about boy loses girl. Michael: Who should it be about, Linc? Westmoreland? Tweener? LJ? Lincoln: Let me stop you right there! Michael: Do you remember the name of the guard that was murdered because of the riot I started? Lincoln: Shut up Michael. Please. Michael: You don't remember his name? Lincoln: Shut up. Michael: I bet you remember Veronica's name, don't you? Lincoln: (pushes Michael very hard. They're both screaming now) You mention her name again and I swear to God! Michael: What about T-bag? Linc, he's out there, now! Because of us! You and me! (calmly) Every life he takes, that's blood on our hands. And for what? Lincoln: I didn't ask you to do what you did. Michael: They were going to kill you, Linc. Lincoln (screaming): Well, maybe you should have let them! Michael: Take that back. Edit
