2006-10-30%20untitled2.jpgHi Prison Breakers. I'm very sorry that I didn't have time to recap last week's show, especially since it turned out to be a doozy. Here's a brief rundown before I move on to this week's episode in detail: Last week on Prison Break, Sucre held up his fellow Fox Riverites and escaped with the $5 million, but then we found out that it was all an act; he and Michael were in cahoots to con C-Note and T-Bag out of their share of the booty. The joke was on Michael, though, because T-Bag pulled the old backpack switcheroo and escaped with the cash, while poor little Mikey and Sucre were left with a pile of useless National Anthropology magazines. T-Bag bought an old pickup truck and drove off to find a woman from his past - he seemed to have revenge on the brain. C-Note disappeared. Michael and Sucre went on the run together, and there was major drama when Sucre got trapped under a giant log in a river, and Michael had to pull some serious MacGyver tactics at great personal risk in order to save his buddy's life.

Meanwhile, the Evil Secret Service has one or two of the paper cranes, and they are working along a parallel track to try to decipher Mikey's message to Sara. Also, Mahone got called in by Internal Affairs because they kind of noticed that when he killed Tweener in the previous episode, it was the cold-blooded murder of an unarmed man. Mahone fed them a line about self-defense, but they didn't really go for it, and now he has to toe the line. Except that he can't, because in the biggest revelation of the episode - dun-dun-DUN! - we found out that Mahone is working with the Evil Secret Service. Well, not so much working with them as working for them: They have something on him, and Evil Agent Lance met with Mahone and reminded him of his orders: KILL THEM ALL. Yes, Mahone is under orders to kill all eight escapees. So now we know why he killed Tweener, and Abruzzi's death was no accident, either. Mahone told Evil Agent Lance that he's happy to kill Michael and Linc, but he doesn't understand why he has to kill the rest of them. Er, wait just a second. You want to kill Michael, who is completely nonviolent, but you have moral qualms about killing T-Bag? Whatever. Anywho, Agent Lance tells Mahone not to ask questions.

Linc met up with L.J. in Arizona, by means of a ruse that involved paying some dude fifty bucks to beat the crap out of his son so that Linc could scoop him up from the hospital. There was big excitement at Dr. Sara's apartment when an evil agent (not Lance) tried to kill her, but she sprayed him in the face with Raid and got away. Then she called some friend of her father's and told him exactly where she was, and he sent a car with some guys who promptly rolled down their window and gunned down a woman who looked kinda like Sara from the back. Sara is such a moron that she called her father's friend back to report this, but in the middle of the call, she finally realized that he was in on the conspiracy, so she hung up. Then she started trying to decode all of the origami cranes she's gotten in the mail from Michael, and she figured out that he's trying to set up a meeting with her, but she left one of the cranes back at her apartment, so she couldn't suss out the entire message.

Not Sara Tancredi.

In other, less fascinating news, Bellick and Geary are looking for T-Bag; Sucre found out that Marisol didn't go through with her wedding, so he split off from Michael to go and look for her; law enforcement is pressuring C-Note's wife to give him up; and there was no sign of Haywire. I guess he and that border collie are still on a raft to Holland. Yawn. Pretty full episode, though. Now on to this week.
