Back inside, Stanton's sitting down with a couple of other agents and the US Marshall from earlier, all "so I thought you said your friends were coming? Cause you know, I just want to make sure we have enough cookies and I'd really love to meet everybody and totally not kill them at all." Michael says nope, he and Linc will talk and that's all they need. Everybody else stays out of it. Stanton says that's not what the deal was, and Michael's like, ptthbbt, there never was a deal, was there? Stanton I guess has had a long day so he doesn't even bother feigning innocence. When they won't give the others up, he pulls out a gun and tells the Marshall and the other agents to step out a moment. He has the gun at Michael's head, counting to five. One, two, three, POW POW POW! It's Stanton who gets shot. Michael and Linc turn around to see that their hero is the US Marshall guy. "You have an appointment with the General," he says. Well, shit.

Sucre and Sara are back at the warehouse. Sucre goes in to check it out, and Sara stays behind cause she's the girl. Or she's the only one who's not an experienced criminal, that works too. Anyway, Sucre hears the fake (or real but evil?) US Marshall ordering Michael, Linc and Senator Dallow out, and sneaks up behind him. Linc is able to swipe his gun, and immediately shoots him - wait for it - in the gut. I mean, that's self defense, sure, but man, he did not hesitate, and he does not stop to think about it. In fact, he turns the gun on the Senator, who's all "it was Stanton who was going to kill you! I was just going to watch! No hard feelings!" Michael talks Linc down ([dog whisperer] Tssschhh! [/dog whisperer]) and the Senator is all "Christ on a cracker, can't I just go home?" He says look, it's way less complicated now that one less person knows about it. And he's not saying a word. So, change of plans! Nobody kills anybody and I go home and eat some Cheerios, for fucksakes. He tells them where to find the only surviving evidence of this whole thing, and if they destroy it then poof, it never happened.

"Okay, yes, so I was going to just sit there and let him kill you. But I was totally bummed about it, I swear!"

So now we're back without a deal. Linc's all "so does this mean we can run away now please?" Sara runs up and tells Michael she'll kill him herself next time he pulls that crap.
"Where's Mahone?" Linc wonders. Sucre says he's gone. Wait, what? He is not! He better be hitting up Agent Lang for a big favor, again, and coming back toute suite. I had to come to terms with losing Kellerman, but I don't know if I'd survive without Mahone.

Self meets up with Gretchen's Scylla buyer hookup guy. Turns out he's eager to piss off the General. He asks to see it. Self hands it over and eventually the dude says yeah, he'll buy it, as soon as he gets the rest of it. [nelson muntz] Ha ha! [/nelson muntz] The rest of it! It's missing that teeny little nubby thing Michael snagged and hid in the ceiling! Awesome. When Gretchen hears this, she smiles just a teeny bit. Michael, you rascal! Who wins the smartypants contest now, Don? He calls Michael, "I believe you have something that belongs to me." "Come and get it!" Michael snarls theatrically.

Awesome. This is getting fun. I mean, it gets boring when Michael et al are always behind the 8-ball, so I like that they're sort of evenly matched now, and might even get an advantage if Mahone can pull some strings at the FBI. And I like how the alliances keep, um, realigning. Gretchen's reaction to T-Bag and Self's little hostage situation will certainly be very entertaining to watch!
