DrForester said:Meh episode. Nothing seemed to happen. The receptionist is a mole. Big deal, doesn't really change anything. Waste an episode with Sucre on a mine, and the continuing adventures of the stupid subplot of them all, "Michael is sick".
Question though... When did T-Bag ever meet Self? I'm sure they must have, but with this show you never know.

http://tv.ign.com/articles/929/929731p1.htmlNovember 13, 2008 - Usually when a network orders two additional hours of a series, it's because it's doing well and the network wants to build on the buzz. However, this isn't exactly the case with Prison Break, which is down in the ratings this season. Many have speculated this could be its final season, and now it's looking more likely.
The Hollywood Reporter says that producers have been informed two additional episodes may be filmed this season, and it's assumed those two hours will be used to wrap up the series. What's unclear is when these two episodes, if made, would air The Reporter says it's looking unlikely that they would air in the spring, due to the low ratings of the show. In fact, it's not clear when the final six episode of Season 4's initial 22-episode will air, as Prison Break goes on hiatus when 24 Returns.
The Reporter says it's possible FOX might air the final two episodes as a TV-Movie event next fall, akin to their upcoming 24: Redemption special. They also say the episodes might end up debuting on DVD.
Personally, I think that for fans of Prison Break, it's probably nice to hear that a network is for once working with producers to figure out a way to properly wrap up a series - rather than the scenario we've seen many times before when a season ends and only then is everyone told a series won't be coming back, without any closure for the characters or storyline.
Definite mixed feeling about this. Obviously I'm sad to see the show end but what I wanted more than anything was a proper conclusion to the show and we'll be getting it. This has been the first show I've watched from the very beggining until the very end and will go down as my all-time favourite.Costanza said:
That's what I've been telling my friends too! Each episode feels like a heist movie and despite me hating the fact that Prison Break has overstayed its welcome, there really isn't anything like it on TV right now...dLMN8R said:dammit, this season has been so entertaining. I love the "Ocean's 11" style each episode has.
Well, they did acknowledge that the doctor recognized Michael in the last episode.Spider Silva said:This has been one of my favorite shows since I started watching around the middle of season 1. It's definitely at an end though, besides the obvious stuff of not being in prison or technically even on the run anymore and there's nothing left to do, there's a lot of odd stuff here.
- Little or no connection to some of the crazy events in the past with the women's President, Michael and Lincoln's dad, Veronica, the whole Presidential plot, the former Warden, etc. After being spotable people every place in America after season 2, all of the sudden they're free to do whatever they want in season 4.

Season 3 had lots of ridiculous twists but it was enjoyable enough. Season 4 is just plain fun to watch. Every episode is like a mini-heist movie.Fox318 said:The last time I watched this was the end of season 2. How was season 3? I'm not sure if I want to get reinvested back in this.
Well it was planned for only 12 or 13 episodes.Trevor360 said:ya its a pretty shallow show. This is the one example of a series that would have been better served by going the British route and being designed to only last 2 seasons.
DrForester said:Self's an idiot....
Nice ending, to bad they gave away the big reveal for next episode that Michael wanted to trip the alarm.
lil smoke said:Ah they got carried away with it. The show is called "Prison Break". People like me, watched because of THAT. We quit once they got out of prison, and are suddenly fake cops n shit. That is not what I want. The show was good from WITHIN the Prison. The fights, the scheming, double crossing, etc was what made the show good.
The alarm went off when he touched it.M3wThr33 said:Wasn't it obvious? He set off the weight alarm on purpose and just hung around there.
But holy shit. This is the episode it all built up for. God damn.
Remember the whole 2 pounds thing? He set everything on those panels.Shalashaska said:The alarm went off when he touched it.
Wasn't that just for the floor outside the glass case? You could be right but they showed those flashy lights right after he touched it.M3wThr33 said:Remember the whole 2 pounds thing? He set everything on those panels.
Completely agree.dLMN8R said:Was I the only one extremely impressed with how they handled last week's episode? I thought in particular that the one entirely silent segment was one of the best-executed scenes in the whole run of the show.
Blader5489 said:I missed the first couple minutes, how did they get the drop on the general? At the end of the last episode he was going down into the Scylla room with a bunch of security guards.
Also: that Jack Bauer scene with Self might be the first time I have ever been impressed by the guy. :lol
fistfulofmetal said:I thought it was gonna be the other guy. The guy who told Self he didn't think Self would get this far.
agrajag said:I felt sad for the hot FBI agent chick. She was cool. D: Is it safe to assume Bagwell is done for as well?
DrForester said:Probably not, there's apparently a large portion of the fanbase that seem to still think the character is entertaining. Self will probably torture T-Bag till he gives him a buyer.
Great episode till that ending. Self going bad made no sense whatsoever
