MichaelвЂ™s plot is mostly fine but the others donвЂ™t feel specific enough to Prison Break. ThatвЂ™s the problem IвЂ™m seeing creeping into this season. Give us something thatвЂ™s uniquely Prison Break! These characters should be using their smarts before their fists. This kind of action is fun but it feels like it could be happening on any other action drama. Also throwing in a near rape scene didnвЂ™t do much to help. Yeah, last week there was some solid tension but here I was just kind of bored with it. Prison Break Season 1, Episode 3: Cell Test Prison Break Season 1, Episode 4: Cute Poison Prison Break Season 1, Episode 5: English, Fitz or Percy Prison. I could watch that guy doвЂ¦ Well do pretty much anything! Even if it basically amount to вЂњI have some vague informationвЂќ Robert Knepper is so good in the part he makes it work. At least T-Bag was around to sweeten the scenes up. Again, the government plot does nothing for me. Much to their devastation, they soon find out that the prison has been abandoned by the authorities because of the immense threat from the vile inmates. Once outside the prison walls, however, the escape truly begins as the convicts race for their lives while trying to avoid capture by the authorities. Which by the way, can we just take a quick side note? So apparently since MichaelвЂ™s death heвЂ™s been working for the government to bust CIA agents out of prison? Does that mean prison breaking is legit MichaelвЂ™s profession now? If so that is amazing.Д«ut seriously, why has he not contacted Sara before now? Yeah yeah, itвЂ™s part of the bigger mystery but he couldnвЂ™t have rung her up before now? Come on, man! Now locked up in a Panamanian prison known as Sona, Michael, T-Bag, Bellick, and Mahone try to find a way out. In season two, Michael, Lincoln and six other inmates, including pickpocket Tweener and the mentally unstable Haywire, have ultimately escaped from Fox River. With only six episodes left in this season do we have enough time to build up to another huge escape? Prison Break was always about stretching that tension over time and IвЂ™m worried that itвЂ™s going to rush the eventual climatic prison break. Sure, in Panama he didnвЂ™t plan to be in prison but he had a few episodes to figure out a game plan. HeвЂ™s really truly screwed and weвЂ™ve never seen Michael in a position like that. Seeing his reaction at the end and his tearful вЂњfinalвЂќ call to Sara convincingly sold this isnвЂ™t just part of MichaelвЂ™s grand plan.

MichaelвЂ™s old intricate plans were meant to fail so now he has to think on his feet without any backups. The show could be playing with our expectations. Now part of me thinks this was intentional.
