Michael Plans a Broad Daylight Prison Break!
Episode Recap: "Interference"
It was an... interesting episode. Some starts and stops for Michael's plan. Michael's plan to bust out of prison. Michael's plan to bust out of prison in the middle of the day. By running for the fence.
OK....
Anyway, Michael had just worked out the guards' two weaknesses - the inability to buy sunglasses, and a borderline unhealthy compulsion to watch Southern American sporting events - when the bulls showed and locked up his birdwatching perch. In the end, though, crazy Mahone came through with The Cup. Turns out that the guard who looks like (is?)
Tony Robbins simply
has to have his java, and in fact downs it and drops his cup in... the same... place. Every day. Now, the boys realize, they just need to get to Hurtado's joe and, I'm guessing, drug it?
On the outside, Lincoln and Sofia scouted out escape routes and - I'll say it - found some sparks along the way.
Dominic Purcell hinted at that in my (blatant plug alert) video Q&A with him last week. Better her than Susan B., I suppose. But what did Linc bury in the sand, their "escape vehicle"? Scuba gear of some sort?
Sucre, meanwhile, has himself caught up in something sketchy, smuggling into the joint an illicit something Lechero's No. 1 (he have a name?) needs. My guess is that ultimately, this sideline biz for Sucre will waylay his ability to help as gravedigger. And/or he's giving Lech's lieutenant something we do
not want him to have.
Lastly, what's up with T-Bag and Hooker Nun? Gen-yoo-ine feelings?!
Just a few bullets:
" Susan B. "quipping," "There's a bad joke about Sara in there, I'm sure."
" Whistler (McFadden?) to Michael: "I'm guessing you always won the elementary science fair?"
" T-Bag working the woo: "In this world we are all prostitutes, sister. You are a queen."
" Didn't
Wentworth do an actually excellent job of looking scared when he had the guard's gun to his head?
