Oh god. Mahone's hearing. He has lost all ability to keep his shit together and is just a total crazy person. Sullins sees that he's scratching his hands so badly he's drawn blood, and actually says out loud, "you gotta be kidding me." At first Mahone tries to answer their questions, but he can't really stay on topic. "But it's all connected. It's a web. It's a web that I got caught in." Oh my. And really, the story is so ridiculous in the first place that he sort of derails into a huge monologue about how they were all just like flies drawn into this trap, and he was just a guy trying to do the right thing for his family, but the government he dedicated his life to manipulated and extorted him. Which it did, and it's really sad that it sounds like the ravings of a lunatic junkie and no one believes him. Sullins is practically rolling his eyes. Do I have to mention that William Fichtner is awesome? Should I just start using an acronym or something? Lang comes in with some little pills but sees she's too late. His goose? She is cooked.

"Agent Mahone, I am genuinely impressed with the thorough display of batshittery you've managed to pull off here in a court of law."

At Sona, Whistler is looking up at a loose ceiling tile when Michael finds him and asks where the hell he's been. Whistler just barely humors him, saying he was looking for scrap metal for their tunnel support. But Michael sees the ceiling tile, and wonders if the claustrophobia comes and goes, cause that's a tight squeeze in there. Whistler gets all snippy about how tough it must be, not trusting anyone, but their little spat is interrupted by Teodoro, who says that Lechero would like a word with Michael regarding his big brother. Lechero strongly recommends that Linc never call his cellphone again, ever, but holds the phone up for Michael to use. Cool! He calls Linc who says he was right, they just tried to take them all out. Michael says Whistler got a visit from the Company and has been acting weird ever since. Linc's like, yeah, know what else is weird, is he told Sofia it was too dangerous to be around me today, and he was totally right. Spooky! Michael finally realizes the Company doesn't need them anymore, because they're breaking him out themselves.

And sure enough, a big scary helicopter shows up above Sona and it means business. (Incidentally, I remember my friend Brian showing me the press release from Fox, warning Dallas residents that they would be filming a helicopter battle during their morning commute, which is cool.) Whistler comes through a trap door onto the roof and holds his hands up, waiting for rescue, but Michael is right behind him. They have a totally awesome fight scene, on the roof, with the helicopter hovering overhead. Another helicopter rounds the bend and shoots the occasional guard, blows up the occasional jeep. Badass. Aw, is that Sleepy Guard there, who radios in just before he's gunned down? Tough week for Sleepy Guard. They lower a ladder down for Whistler to grab, but ha! Michael totally grabs on to him, and they just hang there. It's kind of funny, but it's also pretty awesome, because I don't think Michael cares if he goes along with Whistler or just stops him. The other helicopter is shooting everybody now, taking all the Colonel's men down one by one. Michael's too close to Whistler for them to shoot, and when one of the Sona guys takes out the sharpshooter they have to abort. Whistler and Michael tumble down to the rooftop. "Mission failed." Back at headquarters Retchin makes the kind of face you make when you know you're in deep, deep shit with bad, bad people.

Don't look down!
