Whistler makes a run for it, beating Michael down the trap door as the alarm starts sounding. Before he goes out to line up in the yard, he takes his shirt off, presumably so he's not recognized as being one of the guys on the roof. Good thinking, and do that more often. Michael fights his way through the crowd, and okay. He gets to this cell, right? And my brain hears that "Hallelujah!" music as he peels off his grey shirt and we see the tats in all their glory! Yay tats! For like five seconds. Because just when I have time to think "Oh cool, great idea, you go out there with those tats and no one will ever identify you as one of the guys on the roof!" he grabs a COMPLETELY IDENTICAL GREY SHIRT and puts it on instead. So like, what the fuck? Maybe they were shooting another, awesomer scene which required the tattoos and they decided to take advantage of the opportunity? Either way, thanks, and more please.
Retchin's phone is ringing, and boy does she ever not want to answer it. She takes a drink instead. It's kind of fun to see her looking like she's about to be sent to the principal's office. If the principal were the head of a murderous international conspiracy and had just threatened you with horrific torture a few hours earlier.
Mahone's hearing is over, and hey, guess what? It didn't go so well. They're taking him back to Sona.
Some white guy we don't know enters the big Sona prison yard doors, and plods around till he gets to Michael. "Mr. Scofield, there have been two escape attempts in the past two days, it can't be a coincidence that you arrived shortly before they happened." Michael says he had nothing to with that, and gets a nice elbow to the nose for it. The guy says he's made too much trouble in Sona, so maybe he shouldn't be there. He calls his guys over and they lead Michael by the shoulders. "Say goodbye to Sona, Mr. Scofield." And they just parade him right out the door.
So yeah, despite the cool cliffhanger there, this wasn't supposed to be the last one we saw for months and months, but there you have it. So like, what the hell?

Awesome recap as always. I'll certainly miss these more than the show!
Sadly, it was a body double the unleashed the hot back nakedness on our retinas, not Wentworth's. Le sigh.

Ha! It's good to know that I'm not the only one who enjoys my fake words. I believe I have also used the words "asshattery" and "suckitude" here.
And I thought it might be a double, especially once I was watching frame by frame to get that screencap. But either way, what was the point of flashing those if he was just going to put on the exact same shirt? That whole sequence confused me, but maybe it'll make sense in February, or whenever the hell this whole thing is over with.

Does anyone know what T-Mac did to get into Sona?

Loula, I heard making up words is a sign of genius.
Gigglesgirlee, I heard T-Mac is in Sona for stealing "Cutest Sidekick Ever" (and my heart) from Sucre.
From the recap:
"Lechero says that who he calls and who calls him is none of Sammy's damn bidness. Sammy is acting so much like a girlfriend he might as well ask if his Fabio vest makes his butt look big."
Ha! And I think Sammy is planning a coup against Lechero. Notice Sammy didn't just bring in one new guy, but the new guy's whole crew. That officially outnumbers Lechero's crew. Hmm...
