Episode 10-30

[carewski]

In literature, there is a concept known as 'willing suspension of disbelief' that means we overlook certain impossibilities in order to advance the story.

The PB writers are really stretching that concept.

And still, I cannot look away.

Another great episode. Michael proves again he is smart and bold, walking into the Mahone's life as a fake FBI agent. Brilliant! And the explosive buried in the Botanical Gardens.... I loved that red herring.

I love that Bellick has T-Bag. You know that's going to get ugly as well as personal.

But I wrinkled my nose when Mahone, with just a slight sweat stain on the back of his dress shirt, was shown four feet down in the dirt, looking at the skeletal remains of Oscar Shales (whose name anagrams to Assholes arc).

Ya gotta draw a line somewhere.

Outside of CSI, Prison Break is the only show I never, ever miss.

What did you think?

I missed this one last night. Would someone with an interest in the show care to give a brief recap? Who figured out the clues to the swans first - Mahone or Tancredi? Is she still on the run? Where is she suppose to meet up with Michael? Did anyone figure out what Bolshoi Booze means? Michael posed as a fake FBI agent and walked right up to Mahone?! How did that work out? And whats-his-face has T-bag, huh? Niiiiiiiiice!

Mahone and Tancredi both figured out the swan thing separately, and are headed toward Gila, NM to meet Michael (the next day - I can't believe how quickly these people can criss-cross the US and get to these remote areas). Michael actually got to Mahone through his ex-wife.

T-Bag was cornered by Bellick in the house of T-Bag's ex. He was there to get back at her for turning him in, but the house was for sale and vacant.

There was a lot of C-Note, too. He managed to elude capture and get together with his wife and child.

Also, Linc and his son were (seemingly) captured at the end of the episode. But you know that isn't going to stick.

I know what you mean about suspending disbelief. This show can take that to the limits.
I can't believe Mahoney's wife didn't recognize Michael. Isn't he on every tv/newspaper? And that ID?
Yet, the waitress recognized Linc & his son.
T-Bag is in for some abuse.
What was Michael going to do with the explosives? Anyone know?

Linc would have not have been recognized if he didn't have to look so damn hot all the time. Button up and look like an average guy, not super hunk (I know he can't help himself).

I missed some of an episode, so who has the money and where is it?

T-Bag put the money in a locker before he went to the (empty) house of his ex. He has the key to the locker in his sock. I think it was locker 84, for whatever that's worth.

That's what we are supposed to think, but didn't Micheal and Sucre switch it up? I'm all confused, but still love the show.

Michael & Sucre thought they had the bag of money, but it was switched by T-Bag for a bag of magazines.

[campfiregirl]

So T-bag has the money and they don't know?? WTF

Micheal seems to have resources set up. I keep forgeting to suspend ....

No, they do know. Michael and Sucre discovered that their bag was full of magazines when they were in the woods, ditching the motorcycle.
