Episode Recap

Wednesday, October 31st, 2007

williamfichtner.jpgFinally a night-time shot of Sona. Michael’s in his cell, feeding a rat out on the grounds. I hate rats. Seriously. Ew. It looks like Michael’s trying to figure out whether the guards sleep on the job at night. The answer? They do not. But they do shoot rats. Michael looks disturbed. Perhaps he joined PETA pre-Fox River.

Mahone, meanwhile, is picking up dirty cups from the ground. Oh, Sona doesn’t exactly look like a disorganized hell-hole, but if all the men drink from dirty cups they picked up off the ground then that place is crawling with bacterial infection. Mahone wants an update on the breakout plan but Michael, who’s finally learned to stand up for himself after two seasons of prison, running and then prison again, tells him to back away.

A new prisoner enters Sona. Is it just me, or does the new prisoner look like the Mexican version of Martin Short? I’m going to call him Mexican Martin until I find out his real name. Sammy (one of Lechero’s flunkies) gives Mexican Martin a friendly Sona welcome.

Linc is visiting Michael and Michael isn’t impressed that Lincoln gave up Whistler’s bird book to Susan. Lincoln continues to lie about Sara’s currently headless predicament. Michael announces that he’s going to be breaking out in the middle of the afternoon tomorrow. Ohhhh, I can tell this isn’t going to end well.

Mexican Martin awakens from his beating to find that he’s been stripped of all of his nice clothes. He also seems to recognize Whistler. I hope Mexican Martin turns out to be as funny as the real Martin Short.

Michael’s asking McGrady for a watch and binoculars. In order to procure the binoculars, Michael’s going to have to do some light thievery. Michael then explains the escape plan to Whistler. He also uses some chalk to draw a diagram of the escape plan on the floor. No, seriously. HE DRAWS THE ESCAPE PLAN ON THE FLOOR. Just in case any other prisoners might be interested in breaking out of Sona. *sigh* Michael, I get that you’re some kind of a genius, but seriously, have you learned nothing from the last two years? You’re leaving around too many clues. Whistler doesn’t seem too confident in Michael’s plan, which also includes using a soccer game as cover.

Lincoln and Sofia are bickering like an old married couple who don’t routinely break people out of prisons back at Lincoln’s hotel room. Susan calls and reminds Linc of the timeline. Susan’s making some notes on a piece of paper and she’s writing down times. I have no idea what this means. Susan reminds him that they’ve got 34 hours to break Whistler out.

Sucre’s cruising down the streets when he’s approached by some strange men in a black SUV. These men want Sucre to smuggle something into Sona and offer him money in return. Oh Sucre, are you going to become a drug mule? Is this what you’ve been reduced to? Yes, it is, because Sucre takes the package.

Bellick’s befriending Mexican Martin. He’s giving Mexican Martin a warning on how not to be a pompous ass and make enemies of everyone in Sona.

Michael and Whistler are prompting gay rumors galore by hanging a sheet in Michael’s cell so people can’t watch them spying on the guards, much like Sucre and Michael used to do in Fox River when Michael went into the walls. I wonder if Michael misses having Sucre for a cellmate. I know I miss Sucre being in on the action. We see that Michael has split the binoculars into two pieces, so both he and Whistler can spy on the guards. Michael also tells Whistler that Mahone’s in on the plan now, for reals.

Nun McHoochie, meanwhile, pays Lechero a visit.

Whistler and Mahone are spying on a guard when Whistler notices that the sun does blind the guard around 3:12 p.m. Mahone leaves to check on Michael and notices that Mexican Martin seems suspicious. Whistler’s describing the guard to Michael and Michael has an idea for distracting another guard, which includes disrupting his TV signal. Now that’s just mean. We also see that Mexican Martin was spying on the boys. I’m so disappointed. Mexican Martin hasn’t been even remotely funny yet. Mahone confronts Mexican Martin, trying to act all tough, and scare him off.

Linc and Sofia are taking a nice drive through the jungle. Their drive is cut short by the police who claim that they’re driving on a private road and make the unfortunate announcement that every road around Sona for 2 miles is closed. Oy, Michael is gonna be sooooo pissed. The cops let them off with a warning. Linc shows that he’s smarter than he looks and starts to come up with a Plan B.

Michael, meanwhile, is acting like a thief again, only this time he’s lifting a microwave. Unfortunately, he’s not a very good thief and the microwave has to remain for now.

Lincoln purchases some mysterious “supplies” in a blue cooler and tells Sofia they’re going to a beach.

Nun McHoochie tells Lechero that Augusto (Lechero’s cousin, maybe?) isn�t paying for Nun McHoochie’s services anymore. Lechero isn’t interested in paying for sex. But apparently he’s ok with having sex with hookers.

Sucre, the new drug mule, hides the mysterious package in with the food headed for Sona.

Whistler’s afraid that The Company is going to kill him when he gets out, or hands over whatever information it is that they want. Michael tells Whistler that their friendship ends the moment they’re over that wall and he really doesn’t care what happens to Whistler after that. I don’t blame, Michael. Look at what happened to all those other guys he befriended during the Fox River escape. Most of them ended up dead.

We see that the mysterious package has arrived in Sona, but no one seems to notice. T-Bag, meanwhile, continues in his roll of drug-pusher and tries to sell some stuff to Mahone. Sammy retrieves the mysterious package from the crate of food.

Michael and Whistler have managed to successfully steal the microwave while Mahone is tripping out on some drugs. While he’s staring dreamily out of the window he seems to notice something important and takes out his paper cup that he found earlier on the floor.

Michael’s giving Whistler a lesson on EMPs (electromagnetic pulse). Did you guys know that nuclear weapons also contain EMPs? So in addition to people dying horrible deaths, those bombs will also knock out all of the electrical power and machines. Just a little something I know. Looks like Michael is going to use the microwave as an EMP to knock out the TV in the guard tower. And it totally works. Michael’s binocular lens obviously gives off some sort of glare because when he turns back to look at the guard, the man is aiming a rifle at him and shoots.

Pandemonium erupts in Sona with word that the guards are coming in. Lechero orders T-Bag to protect Nun McHoochie and the two of them go off running. The rest of the prisoners assemble in the main quad on their knees. The colonel comes in, telling Lechero that the guard believes he saw a rifle pointed at him (which was just Michael’s binocular).

Linc and Sofia are taking a walk on the beach now. The two of them start digging in the sand. No, scratch that. Sofia takes a seat to sun herself while Linc is digging. Wow, she’s just like me. I too believe that all the heavy lifting and digging should be done by men. We have the babies, it’s a fair trade.

T-Bag is trying to reassure Nun McHoochie about her place is Lechero’s heart and the two narrowly avoid being detected by the guards who are searching the prison. The guards find Michael’s binocular and put a chain and lock to close up Michael’s cell. The guards start beating up guys to find out whose cell it is and Michael finally admits it’s his. Michael takes a beating and the guard aims at gun at his head, demanding to know why Michael was watching him.

The guard starts counting down from five in Spanish and Whistler speaks up, saying the binocular lens is his. He says that he was using the lens to watch birds and takes out the bird book to prove it. The guards buy this story and file out.

Michael runs back to his cell and is very upset to find it locked up. He starts desperately grabbing for the microwave that’s locked inside but can’t reach it.

Lechero goes back to retrieve Nun McHoochie, who’s in a rush to leave. We see that she’s lifted money from Lechero, but T-Bag steps in and says he gave her the money. Lechero doesn’t appreciate T-Bag’s interference and smacks him one good.

Whistler’s badgering Michael about the modified plan, but Michael wants to be alone with his genius brain to come up with Plan…what? C? F? M? How many plans has he had so far?

Lincoln shows Sofia what he bought at the dive shot earlier. Whatever it is, it’s their “getaway vehicle”, which Linc buries in the sand. I’m assuming its diving masks or something and they’re going to escape by going underwater. When they re-enter the jungle to leave the beach we see that they’re very close to Sona.

The drug guy pays Sucre, but thinks that since Sucre muled for him once, he’ll mule for him twice (and maybe more). Sucre starts to regret his decisions, but takes another package.

Mexican Martin approaches Whistler and says that he recognizes him from Nice, France in 1997. Whistler denies knowing him, but Mexican Martin says that Whistler was with an ambassador. Michael and Mahone look at Whistler suspiciously, but their need for a new plan gets in the way.

Mahone reveals what he noticed in his drug-induced haze: that the guard was drinking from the cup Mahone later found on the floor. The boys decide to go after the cup to get to the guard.

Recap from last night

160×120_prisonbreak_crew_s02_paulscheuring.jpgEpisode 305 “Interference”
Airdate: 10/22/2007
Linc visits Michael; the escape deadline is tomorrow. Linc needs to arrange a getaway vehicle for 3pm – the only way to avoid the military jeeps is to be able to see them, so they need to escape in broad daylight.

A new inmate, Andrew Tyge, sees Michael and Whistler talking. He recognizes one of them. Michael asks McGrady for a watch and binoculars. Michael outlines his escape plan to Whistler; but first, he needs to get to know the guards better to find out their weaknesses. Whistler’s cell overlooks the other guard’s tower; Michael asks him to observe him all day, and gives him one half of the binoculars.

An impatient Susan is looking at a blueprint of a large building and labeling it with numbered post-its – steps in a plan?

Sucre is approached by Lechero’s cousin, Augusto – he had an arrangement with the previous gravedigger to smuggle things into Sona. He’ll give Sucre $5000 to do this just once. Sucre agrees.

Whistler finds that there’s a time of day when there’s a blind spot for the guard for six minutes. Michael has found that the other guard occasionally adjusts his TV when there’s interference – and he can build a transmitter to help jam his signal. Tyge is spying; Michael almost catches him, but not quite. However, Mahone has seen Tyge, and tells him to mind his own business.

Lincoln and Sofia try to take an off-road, but it’s a private government road and they’re stopped and bullied by the police, though Sofia talks them out of any trouble. The officer says he’ll remember Linc, though.

After having sex with Lechero, Sister Mary Francis says that Augusto won’t pay for her any more. Lechero won’t pay either – he won’t pay for sex. She’s desperate and broke, but Lechero’s offended.

As T-Bag continues to provide Mahone with drugs, Sammy picks up the package that Sucre has smuggled in. Michael steals the microwave of a particularly tough inmate. He uses it to finish his jamming device. It works – but the guard suddenly takes aim at Michael’s cell and sprays the window with bullets. An alarm blares. Colonel Escamilla and his men enter the prison – a guard reported seeing a rifle scope, and he’s not leaving until he finds the rifle. Sister Mary Francis can’t be found by the soldiers; T-Bag hides her and promises to keep her safe. He seems to have a genuine affection for her.

Susan gets a call from General Pad Man, who is behind her kidnapping and blackmail attempts – and calls her Gretchen. She’s freelance, but he’ll hold her accountable if their plan goes wrong.

The monoscope is found in Michael’s cell. The guard, Hurtado, demands to know why Michael was watching him. Whistler steps up and says the scope is actually his, and he wasn’t watching the guard, he was watching birds. He shows the bird book as proof that he’s a birdwatcher. The General is mollified.

Lechero returns to his cell – to find that Mary tried to steal $30 from his unguarded cashbox. T-Bag steps up and claims he gave the money to her and planned to replace it by the end of the day. Lechero is angry, and roughs T-Bag up, but Mary is out of trouble for now.

Linc buys some supplies at a dive shop, and then goes with Sofia to the beach, not far from the prison gates, where he buries four small scuba tanks. A getaway for himself, Michael, Sofia and Whistler. International waters are 12 miles off the coast. Linc and Sofia start to trust each other.

Augusto pays Sucre for his delivery – and asks him to make another. Sucre resists, but ultimately gives in.

Michael is locked out of his cell, all his belongings inside; his plans are ruined. But Mahone has noticed something else from his own cell – Hurtado has a coffee fix. They and Whistler run into Tyge – who is sure he knows Whistler. He calls him McFadden and says he was in Nice, in 1997, with the Ambassador. Whistler insists Tyge’s insane, he’s just a fisherman. Neither Michael nor Mahone believe him. But Mahone doesn’t care – he just wants to get out.

Last Night’s recap

EPISODE 304: Good Fences
Airdate: 10/08/2007

As Michael starts to hatch an escape scheme, Whistler warns him that if he doesn’t give up the book, he’ll tell the Company that Linc has it. Michael is unfazed. He asks to borrow McGrady’s cross necklace, but McGrady demands to know why.

Linc, still freaked by the bloody box, visits Michael, who asks Linc to make friends with the prison gravedigger. We see in flashback what was in the box: Sara’s severed head.

Michael cuts the power in the prison, then visits a trembling Mahone, going through withdrawal, to enlist him in his escape plan. He asks for a black felt tip pen. Bellick’s watching. Mahone begins to hallucinate that Haywire is there, warning him against trusting Michael.

A man tries to escape; Lechero catches him and cuts his Achilles tendons in front of the other prisoners. Meanwhile, Sofia visits Whistler and insists on helping. Whistler asks her to dig into the Scofield brothers’ pasts. And Linc meets with Susan, who demands Linc give her the real book.
When Sucre refuses to help, Linc enlists Sofia as a translator so he can make friends with the prison gravedigger. The gravedigger recognizes Sofia from the prison gates. Okay, they’re going to have to try honesty.

Lechero, knowing Michael is an engineer, goes to him to see if he can help get the electricity back on. If Lechero’s cell phone dies, he can’t get any food into Sona and they’ll all die. Michael says the electricity can only be repaired from No Man’s Land, the area between the inner and outer gates of the prison, where any escaping prisoner is shot dead by tower guards. If he’s going to trust that Lechero can protect him from the guards, he’ll do it – but only in exchange for a specific corner cell – the first to get sunlight in the morning, he says. Bellick horns in, offering to help dig, and letting Michael know he overheard his conversations with Mahone. On the dig, Michael won’t include Bellick in his plans. So Bellick goes to Lechero and tells him Michael’s planning an escape, and that he saw Michael bury something in a junction box in No Man’s Land. Lechero goes to Michael and demands to see what he buried. It’s duct tape – to fix the frayed wires, says Michael. Time to turn the power back on; Lechero insists on coming along with Michael. They arrive in the main power room. There is a fusebox, where Michael has jammed McGrady’s cross – this is what’s really been keeping the electricity off. The main power switch won’t work while the cross is there, and Michael can’t get the cross without Lechero seeing. So Lechero picks a fight with Sammy, during which he is able to surreptitiously remove the cross. The power comes back on. Lechero, though suspicious, is satisfied for now.

T-Bag kills Nieves, Lechero’s man for smuggling drugs and money into the prison, and makes it look like an overdose. Lechero already suspected Nieves of thievery; this just confirms it. T-Bag takes Nieves’ place in Lechero’s organization.

Linc arranges to meet Susan and get $15,000 from her. Sofia insists on coming along; Linc refuses to let her. And he tells Sucre to get lost already if he’s just gonna run off.

Mahone brings Michael a felt tip pen. Whistler doesn’t understand why Michael repaired the electricity – now the electric fence, which hadn’t been working in the first place – is back online. Michael says they’ll escape by making the fence as deadly as possible.

Susan and Linc meet with the gravedigger; the money is to bribe him. He asks for more money; Susan shoots him dead.

The hallucinatory Haywire begins to urge Mahone to kill Michael. T-Bag brings Mahone some drugs, and he takes them to steady his shakes. He visits Michael in his new cell – which overlooks the electric fence – bringing him the black felt tip pen, which he’d left behind in his old cell. Now why would Michael do that? Full of new confidence and self-control, Mahone says he’ll kill Michael if he’s not included in the escape attempt.

Linc, still hiding that Sara’s dead, tells Michael that the gravedigger’s been killed – but Sucre is now the gravedigger. He couldn’t abandon his friends after all.

Susan sends the bird book back to Whistler, who then visits Michael to find out the details of the escape plan. They watch Sucre bury Nieves. Every body is sprayed with Kesslivol, a chemical that kills the odor of decomposition. And when heated to a certain degree – as it can be by, say, Sucre surreptitiously spraying it on an electric fence – it can corrode steel.

Exclusive Interview: ‘Prison Break’ Star Robert Wisdom

Thursday, October 4th, 2007

robert-wisdom.jpgOn last week’s season 3 premiere of Prison Break, viewers were treated to several new facesm including Robert Wisdom who plays the menacing Sona kingpin Lechero. The Panamanian prison is ruled by the inmates, and Lechero is the de facto leader, the man who tries to keep a group of the worst felons in line.

BuddyTV got the chance to speak with Robert Wisdom at this weekend FOX press junket in Los Angeles, and unlike his character on the show, he could not be any nicer. As an added bonus, members of the press who woke up early enough for breakfast were treated to seeing Wisdom talking on the phone while, right next to him, a TV showed the Prison Break season premiere. Side-by-side, it’s stunning how different the man is from the character.

-Robert Wisdom discussed how he was cast on Prison Break this year, and his feeling that we would get the role because he had a strong understanding of the character.

-Lechero is based on or inspired by a number of historically ruthless dictators, such as the Shah or Iran, Idi Amin and Benito Mussolini. In other words, Lechero is not someone to be taken lightly.

-Having previously played a death row inmate on Boomtown and a member of the Baltimore police department on HBO’s The Wire, Wisdom talked about the different ways in which he approaches characters on either side of the law, and how he always tries to find the center.

-Wisdom respects the other actors on Prison Break, and is impressed how seriously they all take their jobs. Also, though he didn’t watch it originally, when he was hired he got the first two seasons on DVD and sped through them and got hooked right away by the cat and mouse aspect of the first season and the expanded conspiracy of the second.

-In his free time, he is very passionate about music and plays several instruments.

-Wisdom confirmed that, in the fifth and final season of HBO’s The Wire, premiering in January 2008, is character, Bunny Colvin will return, and Wisdom assured fans that this season will be “extraordinary.â€?

-Interview conducted by John Kubicek

Episode 3 Recap

Tuesday, October 2nd, 2007

dominicpurce_cohen_12316275.jpgSo, an update: Wentworth Miller did NOT show up at my apartment and declare his undying love for me, despite the fact that I heaped praise upon the characters and cast of Prison Break in last week’s recap. Well guess what, Wentworth? Two can play at that game. I’d like to introduce you to this week’s recap: “Call Waiting: The one where Clarissa heaps sarcasm and snarkiness on the characters and cast of Prison Break and it’s all Wentworth’s fault.” What’s that? I’m behaving like a petulant child? Yeah…..well…..you smell. SO THERE!

Lincoln’s looking through the bird book he stole off Whistler’s girlfriend last week. He sees various words like “stampede” in the book, as well as numbers. A man slips photos of LJ and Sara under the door. Then Sucre scares the crap out of him. Sucre looks like he’s been crying over the loss of Maricruz. This is normally the point where I’d say something mean, but I love Sucre too much. I can’t do it. Everyone else? Fair game. Sucre wants Westmoreland’s money. The two of them argue, and Sucre seems to not give a crap that Michael (who broke him out of prison) is back in jail. Linc seems to notice something about the photos.

We’re back at Sona Fight Club, where Michael’s toying with the bolts of Sona, much like when he got the bolt from the bleachers at Fox River to use as a key. Michael offers to help out around Sona in exchange for favors from Lechero. Again, not like that. Lechero seems to forget that Michael saved his dictator ass in the previous episode and is not interested in any “help” Michael can provide.

Michael goes to see Linc and takes the opportunity to survey the guards. Lincoln brings Michael up to speed about the bird book and Michael wishes that he had studied something useful in college, like birds, instead of stupid structural engineering. Linc also shows him the photo of Sara. What’s that, Michael? You sorry that Sara’s lost to you? I feel the same way about Wentworth, so don’t expect my sympathy. The boys notice Sara’s pointing at something in the paper: a town called Santa Rita. Michael’s desperate to talk to her. It’s been three days and he’s no closer to escape. Michael tells Linc he needs to get off his non-being-in-jail ass and save Sara and LJ if Michael can’t perform another prison break.

Whistler’s behaving like the anti-Sucre and wants to know why he should trust Michael. Michael wishes he had his cellmate from season 1 back and asks McGrady about a phone. Linc’s also asking Susan about setting up a call between Sara and Michael, but she’s not down with that. Back in Sona, Michael realizes that the only person who has a phone is Lechero.

Lechero’s unhappy with his business dealings on the outside. I don’t know more than that and I actually care very little about it. Meanwhile, Whistler and Sofia are reunited, separated only by a barb-wire fence and surrounded by lots of men with guns. Whistler asks about the book, but Sofia says Scofield’s brother has it. Whistler says the book only has phone numbers in it, but Sofia doesn’t buy it. As she goes to sign out at the guard station, she finds Michael’s name, Lincoln’s name and Lincoln’s hotel.

Back inside, Michael’s trying to score some drugs. I like where this is going. One of Lechero’s men tells him where to score. Mahone’s managed to find the place on his own and is realizing that withdrawal is not a nice place to be. Meanwhile, Michael is eying Lechero and his cell phone and flipping out over Sara’s photo.

Michael threatens to tell the good Catholic folks of Sona what kind of perv T-Bag is unless he hooks him up with Lechero’s phone. I’ve always loved the hypocrisy of prisoners who kill people but then beat up on guys who molest children. It’s all crimes, people.

Whistler’s confronting Michael about his klepto brother, but Michael isn’t swayed. Michael tells him the only reason he’s going to bust Whistler out is to save Sara and he should just shut the hell up and STOP WITH THE PRESSURE!

There’s a conversation between Lechero and his cousin about Lechero’s outside business. *sigh* I DON’T CARE. Lechero’s obviously fake accent is bothering me. Meanwhile, we see that T-Bag unplugged Lechero’s phone and allowed it to die.

Mahone’s being visited by his lawyer. He tells him he’s got a trial date for next year. Oh yes, here’s the wonders of the legal system I know and love. Mahone says that Michael is willing to testify for him (huh, we’ll see about that), but the lawyer tells him the courts don’t care for prisoners who testify on behalf of other prisoners.

T-Bag sends Lechero off to his barber appointment but leaves his cell charging. Meanwhile, T-Bag snags the phone and brings it to Michael. We see Sofia is following Linc, who’s talking with Michael. Bellick’s trying to make friends with a drag queen that he pissed off earlier. This is all completely unimportant. Wow, he’s trying to flirt. It’s hurting my brain, it’s so awful.

Sara finally calls Michael and he tries to set up a code with her. She tries to send him some sort of message, saying that “it’s a lost cause” and “maybe he just needs more time”. Michael’s trying to relay the code back to Linc and says it’s up to him to solve it. Before last week I would have written off LJ and Sara but Lincoln is proving that he might have some brains after all. Michael manages to put the phone back in the nick of time. Lerchero notices that his phone wasn’t put back in the charger properly and he calls the last number dialed, but Lincoln doesn’t say anything. Lechero is suspicious.

Sofia tires to threaten Linc with a knife, but he quickly puts an end to that nonsense. No guy with pecs like those will be threatened by a silly knife. Linc takes off in a cab, trying to figure out the code.

Back in Sona, Whistler’s trying to make friends with Mahone, who spent all of last episode trying to kill him. Oh yes, this makes total sense. Whistler recognizes Mahone as the FBI agent who was chasing Scofield and tries to press Mahone for info on Michael. Mahone whines that Michael will screw the people he doesn’t care about. You know, because Mahone’s a bloody freaking saint.

Linc’s trying to use the cabbie to figure out the code and gets let off in the red light district. Naturally, the women are all over his pecs. Sara spies Linc and breaks the glass of her window just as Linc’s starting to piece together the clue.

Linc goes running into the house while LJ and Sara are dragged out into a van. Ohhh, he looks totally murderous as he realizes he’s lost them. Susan gets a call about the failed rescue attempt and looks ticked off.

Linc’s visiting Michael again, telling him about his spectacular failure. He really should have planned it better. He’s telling Michael “we can do this”. I fail to see the Lincoln part of this “we” yet. So unless Linc’s going to pull a Scofield and get himself locked up too, he’s not doing much right now. In fact, he had one damn job to do and he screwed it up royally.

Michael’s back at his cell, surveying the guards and replaying the failed escape attempt of Bellick’s friend in his mind. Whistler wants to talk and mentions Sofia, saying she’s the reason he’s here. Whistler doesn’t know who The Company is.

Whistler starts telling his story: he was running a fishing charter business. He took out some guy who was taking water samples. He then gets a call from some people wanting to know where Whistler took that guy. He said he couldn’t remember and some government-type people start sniffing around. Meanwhile, he got spooked and moves to Panama to be with Sofia. He then gets into the bar fight where he kills the mayor’s son and gets thrown into Sona. The government-type people show up again and say they want to get him out if he’ll take them to the place he took the water sample guy. The bird book is like a log and he needs it to get back to that place. This is such a weird and complicated story. What drugs were the writers smoking when they came up with this? I want me some. Might make work more tolerable. Michael notices that the only people getting out of Sona are the dead bodies. Oh yes! Capital plan! Just get yourself killed and you’ll be out! Genius.

T-Bag decides to go back to doing what he does best: acting like a complete jackass. In an attempt to destroy Lechero’s other flunkies, who have been making fun of him, he tries to stir shit. Lechero looks disbelieving, but willing to listen, and asks T-Bag to spy for him.

Mahone’s trying to unnerve Michael again and comes out of his withdrawal for long enough to realize that Michael’s skills might be useful to The Company.

Michael spies a man outside who’s digging a grave for one of the recently-deceased fight club victims. Linc returns to his hotel to find Sucre passed out from too much booze. Susan calls Linc to threaten him and sends him to find a present she left for him. Oh god, it’s Sara’s body isn’t it? This is now they’re going to get rid of her character.

Ok, it’s a small box. Linc bends down to open it and we only see a flash of what’s inside. I can’t make it out, but Linc looks horrified. I even played it on slow-mo on my DVR and I can’t figure it out. Many of you will probably say that it’s supposed to be Sara’s head in the box. You may very well be correct. There’s been much speculation that she’s not returning, but everyone’s been keeping it under wraps. If that’s true, I’m pissed. What utter pointlessness to keep her going all through season 2 only to kill her now.

Ok, let’s not jump to conclusions. Maybe they’re just using this whole “Sara’s head” thing to scare us. Maybe it’s something else. Maybe…..

Episode 3 Tonight

Monday, October 1st, 2007

8415566.jpgDont forget to watch PB tonight all. 8:00pm EST on Fox. I really hope this show picks up soon. I know I have said this before and I am a HUGE fan of PB but this season is just plain ole boring. I think alot of it has to do with the Panama Prison. I realize prison is not meant to be glamorous but nonetheless it needs something. Tonight sounds like a good episode though so we will wait and see. Stay tuned for tomorrow for anything you missed.
