MFEO?? lost on that one.

Also, is it just me or is there morse code under the writing on the origami crane?

I was just about to point out the little dots/morse code under Micheal's message also.

I thought the first episode was excellent, it delivered

Excellent recap Umnata. And posted so soon! I'm not disappointed either. They [i]might[/i] have set up Mahone as Michael's mental match a little too soon, but it's Prison Break, and their trying to outfox each other will make the season a lot more interesting. Those dopes "guarding" the prisoners at Fox River don't even compare to Mahone.

juxtapoeser (#1), I thought the same thing about morse code, and I think it's definitely some kind of code for Dr. Sara to crack, but in morse code it spells:

S I I E H S S I H
H S S E S E I I S E
I S E S S E I E

Maybe Dr. Sara understands that, but I don't :)

By the end of this season, there will be no characters left. They will be all dead.

I thnk Robin Tunney's a honey. What's wrong Umnata, did she throw a drink at your face in a LA bar? :)

This episode delivered. I like the new 'arch nemesis' character that *gasp* has half a brain to decipher the tatoos, etc.

Where to begin with this show? Don’t get me wrong, its entertaining, but Christ it’s written by a 3 year old. I’ve never seen so many plot holes in my life and I’m a huge 24 fan.

sg-dub and I hashed out our issues with it via email, so I’ll just paste it in here. Saves me typing.

Sg-dub:
The guards were right next to them at one point and just called off the chase b/c of the train?

Why did they get off the train?

They were allowed drive so long in a stolen car - whree's the dragnet?

The whole FBI vs. locals cliche

The fact that PRISON GUARDS were chasing and not police? Huh?

The FBI guy figuring everything out so easily, like that blue pill gave him special powers somehow.

The HD into the river? Huh?

Everyone looked creepy from the 2 fbi guys, to tbag's paleness to steadman to the murderer in MT to the little girl. Freaky.

Stupid Veronica believing her phone call would be a good thing.

The 32432th Prison Break misdirect with the storage garage - we all KNEW that's exactly how it would play out

If they wanted to get rid of Abruzzi, methinks 4 guys with shovels could have done the trick
Scared of a small man in shock with one hand who threatens with a screwdriver? Huh?

Michael's suit looked freshly pressed after being in a bag underground for 3 months.

8 escapees with a few murderers and ONE GUY is chasing them in the populated Oswego? Huh?

Sigh. No one can make a good TV show anymore. I'll trust you that Lost isn't this inane.

Me:

I liked it and all, but so many plot holes. I half expected then to about to be caught and then cross the county line and have the cops stand their looking defeated cuz its out of their jurisdiction.

A guy with one hand and a massive amount of blood loss has a screwdriver in his hand and people act like he’s got dynamite strapped to his chest.

Also its nice to know that they had just enough clothes to fit all 8 of them even though the original plan as for just Michael and his brother. Funny how that worked out. And the other cons didn't ask "what else did you bury in here besides clothes?"

The best part however, was watching the guy at the animal shelter attempt to reattach his hand. even though its a huge operation needing advanced microsurgery equipment in order to reattach every major vein, muscles, ligaments, etc. then months of recovery time. But a guy in an animal shelter with a few knives and no anesthesia is gonna give it a go.

And of course I like how no matter how hot it gets with them running in the 90 degree heat, Michael will still only wear a long sleeve shirt because it takes to long to put on the fake tattoos.

Or when they get lost in a crowd it just happens to be the busiest street corner in small town America? Times square doesn’t have that many people. Or when the guy grabbed him violently and Wham!, it was just a guy wanting to know what time it was.

And Tancredi is alive? Even though we saw her lying dead, and I mean purple skin and drool coming out of her mouth, at the climax last season? I specifically remember the cop saying she was DOA and asking for the morgue to show up. You can tell they changed their mind at the last minute and wanted her back.

Veronica getting killed was the only cool part. You think in heaven her eyes look normal?

I can forgive a lot of the plot holes, but the train one was one of the worst in the history of this show. They give up because a train is going by? Please...

I think T-Bag is going to get caught when he passes out mid-butchery. I could then see him breaking out of a hospital situation quite easily...a second "Prison Break" if you will.

I agree that some of this story is both riduculous and unrealistic, but it's been a long time since I watched an action/drama on tv that I wished was on for hours at a time. They do a great job of getting the viewer to want to root for these guys.

And I will be the first to admit my totally heterosexual man-crush on Wentworth Miller.

T-Bag should forget about the hand and just get a prosthetic hook. Then he can run around and scream, "I'ma monster!"

Like I said in the forums, best line of the night "You want variety? Go to Target." Bust out laughing at that one!

Oh yeah, thank GOD Veronica is gone! I haven't seen a face that crooked since Shannon Doherty!

There sure were plenty of plot holes, but smart, creepy sheriff from Invasion bothered me more than the train. I was surprised that he didn't follow the cliche of studying the Michael's case every waking moment for the past few months so he could get inside the criminal mind. The way he figured out the tattoo within the first half of the first episode was like something out of House.

Doctor/random person #1: The sky is blue.

House (light bulb turns on): The man has an extremely rare form of strep throat that only occurs in young girls from Siberia. How did he get it? His wife is a whore who slept with an Eskimo who has a Siberian girlfriend, obvs. (Yes, I do like House, but the show is far fetched.)

Seriously, when he was running his hands over the wall and having a vision of Michael's planning sessions, I was expecting him to make the hand pistols and yell, "There was a firefight!!" F you Boondock Saints!

Anyway, I was kind of glad that Veronica died, not because I hate Duckface (hilarious caption on the picture of her corpse BTW), but because I would have been uber pissed if they had done the old gunshot-off-camera-didn't-kill the-person-it-logically-should-have routine. Good job on that one writers.

I'm in the Dr. Sara love club too, Umnata. I'd give myself a disease that requires daily treatment AND go to prison if it meant I could be treated by Dr. Sara. It was cheesy to bring her back from the dead, but I'm so much happier to see her back among the living. Swoon.

Finally, whiny Stedman is annoying. Bring back the creepy, evilish Stedman.

I'm so happy I can still get my fix on Invasion sherrif. I have a theory to patch up one plot hole. There are prisons who take pictures of inmate's tattoos. They do it because some tattoos have certain meanings, ie gang symbols. So it is possible to have taken that many pictures of Michael's.

Thanks for the recap.

Maybe Veronica deserved to die after finding Steadman alive and instead of calling every news organization out there for a live press conference, she calls the cops (knowing about all the conspiracy crap she's put up with for the past year!) I think after that, she basically was begging for that bullet. LOL

OMG these re-caps and comments are hysterical! Originally I kept watching for Wentworth Miller...but now I can't wait to catch the re-cap afterwards. I've got an ache in my side from laughing so hard.

I'd add my two cents but I think everyone else has pretty much covered all the hilarity.

dodgerfan77 - it's not heterosexual to have a man crush. Take a cue from McGreevey and come out already!
