They've obviously been working on Sucre for some time now, because he's almost completely buried. They're barking at him to tell them where Michael is, and only his face is sticking out of the dirt. Finally, the General realizes this isn't working. They pull him out of the dirt, much to his old sadistic-but-kind-of-hot boss's chagrin. We all breathe a sigh of relief, for the four seconds before Sucre's phone starts ringing inside the guard's pocket. "If it's him, you find out where they are," he barks, then gives Sucre the phone. This whole episode has reminded me why I like Sucre, and it's downright heartwarming to see him smile and tell Michael that everything is fine. Michael is relieved to hear that - he was worried when Sucre didn't show up with the boat. Sucre understates that he just got into a little trouble at work. He asks about LJ, which, aww, and when Michael asks him again if everything's okay, he says "I'm fine. Everything worked out!" He smiles like he means it. He then quickly says "I'm about to get on a bus, Papi, take care," then immediately crushes the phone underfoot. So badass. This act of defiance pisses the guard off and he shoves his gun into Sucre's neck. Sucre's like, pthhbt, kill me if you want, but he doesn't. They have something much less pleasant in store for him, i.e., the other side of that Sona fence.

"YOU get a dollar! And YOU get a dollar! And YOU get a dollar!"

T-Bag stands on a crate in the middle of the yard and proclaims: "Lechero is dead!" He then proceeds to convince everyone that having one of their own dictate them is not how things should work. All cons are equal! Universal healthcare! School vouchers! Vote Bagwell in 08! Oh, also, here's this blood money he made off of you, and T-Bag's giving it right back! There you go, stimulate the economy. He's just throwing bills around everywhere and they're eating it up. A broken, battered, and dirty Sucre is led in at this exact moment, and just think for a few seconds about what he's looking at: not only is he in a nightmarish prison, he's in a nightmarish prison being run, apparently, by freaking T-Bag. You poor bastard. Wanna change your story about Michael?

LJ checks on Sofia in the hospital and reports back that she's okay. And dammit, I didn't see this coming and it totally makes me weep like a girl. "Uncle Mike," LJ says. "I wanted to wait till we were safe to do this." He says he found something in the room where they kept Sara, and he thought Michael would want to have it. You guys, it's the goddamn origami flower. Like, the first one. We get a heartbreaking flashback to when he left it on her desk for her, back when she still had a job and a dad and a head. Gah! This totally kills me, even though I really should have seen it coming. Michael is all shiny-eyed himself, but he also looks like he's remembering "oh right, I have a squinty, knife-happy bitch to exact revenge upon! I better get on that." He's sort of lost in thought but he overhears LJ telling Linc that Sofia hid something under her bed. Something to do with Whistler. This gets Michael's immediate attention. Linc wants to drop it but Michael isn't finished with this thing. He wants to know what it is.

Mahone and his fishing hat are still drinking ginger ale, which is really annoying when you're a bartender so I hope he's tipping well. He's staring pointedly at the Banco Sol across the street. The door opens and someone approaches. "You're late," Mahone says, "and you owe him for my drinks." Please let it be Kellerman, please let it be Kellerman, I think, hoping against hope. But no, it's actually...Whistler! Which is interesting, since he has "Alex Mahone" scribbled in the bird book T-Bag is currently carrying around. He gives the bartender a hundred to give them some privacy, so whew, I feel better for that guy. When Mahone remarks that it's a nice tip, Whistler gestures outside to a squinty bitchfaced Gretchen and says "she handles the money." Mahone says she better be able to handle a lot more than that. If she's really done what Whistler things she has, i.e., Sara, then she's the weak link. Michael will find all of them, and Mahone's not paying for Whistler's mess. Huh? Whistler just asks if he's in or out. He's in. In what? In what???

shitting bees! hahahahahaHA!

... shitting bees.....

crypticquill:

Ah, how I hope pleasegodplease that your version of the ending comes true. From some Sara/Michael lovin' right down to Bellick getting grounded.

According to TVGuide.com, a fourth season is looking very possible. Half, full, who knows, but either way we'll *hopefully* get some answers.

akgirl7:

I love how Bellick was such a mean ass guard in Season 1 and now he's such a total wussbag!

And poor Sucre, I was so worried they were going to kill him. They can't kill Sucre off the show, ever!

When Michael had the gun pointed at Gretchen I was jumping up and down yelling shoot her! Shoot her!!!

I'm dying to find out what happens. I really hope somewhere out there are the remaining episodes to this season. They can't just leave us with 13!!!

And no way is Sarah dead. She just can't be. I think they found a look alike and cut her head off to make us all believe it was Sarah.

duckncvr:

I'm pretty sure the spanish song at the end was roy orbinson's "crying".. lovely. Gosh how I wish Sara were here..!! and everytime i saw gretchen i was like "shoot her! will someone punch the bitch in her face already!?" this cannot be the end!!!

duckncvr:

sorry if this is a double post, had trouble the first time..

the spanish song at the end is roy orbison's crying.. i'm now listening to it on youtube.. it really is a lovely version. i want to download it now! no idea who the singer is...

and gretchen gave me murderous thoughts every time i saw her.. grr.. michael needs to kick her ass. I was hoping Sara would return, but even LJ knows she's gone.. :(

loula:

Wow, duckncvr, thanks! I can't believe I missed that, and now that I think about it it makes that ending seventeen times sadder.

Also, josef, ha, your laughter made me laugh out loud. I concur that "shitting bees" is completely hilarious, and props to my friend Brian for getting me started saying it. Now go and spread it around the world!
