Tonight’s episode of Prison Break began with Lincoln having a flash back of his old days. He’s in a car with an old friend. He tells the friend that after they are done with this, he’s done. What kind of father could he be always in prison? Lincoln and his friend are working on staging a car accident. The car which carries what they want is spotted. Lincoln slams on the gas, as they plow into the car. The passenger of both cars gets out, and lincs’ buddy opens fire, and kills the other passenger. Lincoln grabs a briefcase from inside the car, as he does a passenger of the other car attempts to shoot him, and as he does Linc’s buddy saves the day once again, shooting and killing the driver.
We’re outside of a gas station where Lincoln was telling this story to: Sara,Roland, Sucre and Bellick. Roland questions the plan, Lincoln tells him now that the devive is gone, his opinion doesn’t matter, and tells him to shut up, and pump. The gas. Sucre is worried about the crash. We’re now taken to a church where Michael and Self are walking down an aisle, in the background we can see the back of Gretchen’s head. The two meet up with Gretchen,Gretchen tells Michael that what happened in Panama was just business, Michael doesn’t want to hear it, he wants to know what Gretchen wants with Scylla, she say’s it’s her business; Michael tells her that they aren’t in Panama anymore, and ask her again; she wants the same thing he wants, to bring down The Company. Michael asks her why doesn’t she give her those missions pages and dissappear, Gretchen would love to, but when Whistler made the copy of the card, it fell under her watch, her name is at the top of the same hitlist as Michaels. Gretchen ask for traveling money, Michael wants to talk about the kind of scumb Self is willing to put on the payrole. Self says they need her, there is no other way. Gretchen says it’s a packaged deal, and proceeds to ask if her and Michael are Partners, Michael ponders this for a second, and agrees to become her partner.
At the warehouse, the gang is there. Roland begins blabbling on how what happened at the Casino he’s sorry for, and Bellick won’t have any of it. He begins choking Roland. “We outta blanket party your ass” Bellick tells Roland, as Michael ask for the device. Can it be salvaged? Michael lays down some new ground rules, gives Roland one of two options. He could either go sit upstairs on his cot, and rid the rest of this thing out, or Michael can call Agent Self right now and have Roland serve the rest of his time. Roland takes the smart move, and goes to sit on his cot. Sara tells Michael that she needs to talk to him. The two are then seen walking along the pier, Sara tells Michael that Lincoln told her about the nosebleeds, and Michael says it wasn’t his place; Michael goes on to explain that when Lincoln was 13 all he did was sit at the side of their dying mother in the hospital, and since then he’s been overprotective, and now is jumping to all the wrong conclusions for all the wrong reasons and it’s over nothing because he’s fine. Sara tell’s Michael that he doesn’t look fine, Michael tells her that’s because he has something to tell her. Michael tells Sara that Gretchen is alive. Sara is now terrified. She begins having flashbacks of Gretchen beating her with a whip on the back. Michael tells Sara that Gretchen is working with T-Bag and that they have several pages from Whistlers Bird Book, and they want in on Scylla and that Self is cutting them a deal as they speak. As soon as they get those pages back, Gretchen and T-Bag are going to get exactly what’s coming to them Michael tells Sara. Sara sucks it up, and agrees that it’s best for the team, and completing the mission. Sara needs a minute alone. More flashbacks of the tortue that Gretchen put Sara through are shown. Saras back is a bloddy mess, as Gretchen continues to beat it.
Roland is seen up in his cot. He knew his role. But he’s hooking up a device to his laptop/cell phone. He’s trying his best to be “sneaky” looking around him every few seconds. On the laptop we see a map of all the cell phone towers. and their location. Whatever he’s doing, it makes a trace route go from one side of the map to the other. Back downstairs Michael tells everybody like it or not, Gretchen is on the team. Lincoln tells Mahone that this thing with Gretchen doesn’t change a thing, they’re still close; Mahone say close to Scylla, far from Wyatt; Lincoln tells Mahone he doesn’t know that, and to just stay focused; Mahone holds up a picture of his son, this is his focus. He’s doing his job, everyday the trail to his sons’ killer gets a little cold, all he does is focus. Back up to Roland where a download is in progress, and it’s complete. Roland is trying to send a text message as Michael walks up behind him: “What are you doing?” Michael asks Roland. “Uhhm, I was just uhh” says Roland, Michael tells him that they’re going to need the laptop downstairs. Rolan disconnects his cell phone from the laptop, and hands it over to Michael. We see that Roland has sent a text message. We don’t see the message, or two who it was sent. Until we see Wyatt sitting in a home, loading his gun. As his cell phone vibrates and Wyatt recceives a text message which reads: “How much for Scofield and Burrows?”.
