Baldy takes Linc into the Company's medical facility, which, of course they have a medical facility, and it's actually kind of a nice callback to that scene at the end of Season 2, when we found out the General was a General, and he was wearing a lab coat and talking about how the Sona project was perfect for Michael cause "it's in his blood." We better find out what the hell that means. Anyway, long story short, Michael will die without the operation, and they certainly can't get it anywhere else, and the going price for eeevil brain surgery these days is - you guessed it - Scylla. He says he knows working for them will be hard for Linc to accept, so he hands him some "added incentive:" it's the patented Prison Break Mysterious Folder With A Mysterious Label. This one says "TOMBSTONE II." If I'm supposed to know what that means, well, I don't. Do you?
So anyway, they're trying to kill me here, because while every other show is on winter break, these bastards are in the middle of a really good run of episodes, and they have one scheduled this week AND Christmas week. So I apologize in advance to all seven of you if I'm tardier and/or less amusing than usual, but I'm sure that, unlike every other year ever, I will complete my gift shopping and wrapping well ahead of time and will be able to devote my full attention to my recaps! Starting next week!

"We are prepared to offer you your freedom, in exchange for your awesome limited edition Sleeping Michael sweatshirt." hahahaha--love it!
"Linc no like Bluetooth"--y'know, he really does look (and act) that dumb.
Wasn't the Bible salesman (for some reason I know the actor's name is Rafael Sbarge)in a scene previously that made it obvious he was working for the Company? I have this mental picture of him standing on a bridge talking to somebody--Agent Blocks out the Sun? OK, the bridge part might be wrong. Anyhow, I totally knew he was a fake.

OK, I'll admit it, I remember Rafael Sbarge because he was a regular on The Guardian. That starred Simon Baker. He (Rafael) had less hair then. Simon had about the same amount.

so i know that it's frowned upon to inject unnecessary logic here, but we know Michael has this brain tumor thing going on and should avoid physical exertion. so during the attempt to nab Scylla from Self and Gretchen, why didn't they put michael on the roof with the potato cannon and let Linc handle all of the running and punching? sounds to me like they weren't maximizing their synergies.
BONUS: just before Linc fires the potato-cannon-tear-gas-launcher, we hear the Wyatt Synth Riff of Doom return! boo yah

Loula....I haven't been able to comment until now because everytime I tried to think of something coherant to say, I would start laughing when I thought of your sleeping michael sweatshirt screencap....So funny. I think that might actually be your funniest yet...which is a serious compliment. Just when I think you can't get any more awesome...you do! And I am glad. Show is getting so tense and I am enjoying every minute of it! Thanks for continuing to recap, even when it is cleary tough for you to get it out! You still have some obsessive fans who will wait for it whenever it comes!

You guys are so freaking nice I feel guilty for being tardy all the time! If I ever figure out a way to make watching TV look like I'm working, you'll get it by Tuesday night.
Next week's probably won't go up until after xmas, since 1) I'm sure I'm not the only one with 34423746 things to do that week, and 2) it's also my birthday week, and 3) it's the last ep till spring, so having the recap a bit later will help tide you over! It's a public service! You're welcome.

LOVE these recaps!! I haven't posted before now b/c I've been watching them on DVR and now I'm finally caught up.
I don't know what Tombstone II means either, but Tombstone does sound familiar. Was it something that their father was working on? I'm sure we'll find out soon enough. PLEASE hurry with the next recap. Can't wait!
