[Movie] Prison Break (Season 2 Discussion Thread)

I just finished watching the season premiere. My first thoughts:

I'm in shock, my mind screaming, "NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!"

Most amazing jew boots

wow just finished watching.
i thought season 2 was going to suck. but first episode was just mind blowing

How ya doing, buddy?

Damn, and it just got even better. Just finished watching episode 2 and that elevator scene was just crazy, easily among the most intense moments of the entire show so far. If they manage to keep up this level of quality and excitement, this season is going to surpass the first by far.

Also, poor Bellick ... -__-

Spoiler:

(damn I almost cried)

The scene with Tweener pulling off getting a ride to Utah was ridiculous. Girlmustbeoutsidehermind. O_o

Wonder what the other characters are up to now... still nothing from Haywire too. It'd be funny if we just see him in the background or something while some other main conversation/event is going on.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Yeah it kind of was ridiculous, but I guess they were just trying to get Tweener and tbag on there way to Utah this ep. I still don't see them forgetting about LJ. And if they do then they will have to go after some type of evidence somewhere to set themselves free of the presidents brother killing. Like Steadmans place.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Last night's episode was definitely awesome.

I really liked T-Bag's scenes, especially the one when he was holding up the Vet. And so far he's had the least amount of interaction with anyone, so I'd say he has the best chance of making it to Utah.

Tweener just strikes me as stupid, and I'm surprised he's gotten as far as he has. I'd be surprised if he actually makes it to Utah, at least with Debra Jean.

As for Michael and Lincoln, they had a good plan to try and get LJ out, but they just couldn't pull it off. If Michael would have at least just shot Mahone in the shoulder or something, they could have gotten away with it, but he didn't want to shoot him at all. Had it been the other way around (Lincoln holding the gun and Michael pulling LJ out), I could definitely see LJ being free now.

They definitely have a lot planned out for this season. Just looking at Michael and Lincoln alone, they have to get some help for Lincoln, try to get the money in Utah, break LJ out in Arizona, and still prove Lincoln's innocence. I had my doubts about where this season could go, but now I don't doubt it at all.

FELIPE NO

I didn't get it, which gun was the one that fell to the elevator? The real or fake one? Why did Mahone react if they still had the other gun?

---

I was surprised to see them running on plain sight of everyone when they were trying to escape. I though they'd be more sneaky! That just adds more action to the series!

Also, I'm looking forward to the new episodes to see what happens with the other guys now that they've gone separate ways. And I *really* want to know what was of Haywire. He's the most likely to be captured first.

How humane of T-Bag not to stab the doctor to death.

Also, what happened to Lincoln's father? Will he appear again?

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

I was under the impression that Mahone saw that it was fake when the gun fell or saw some of the black paint on his hand or something.

Anyways you would think Mahone would have some thought in his mind that Lincoln a supposed big time murderer wouldn't hesitate to shoot him. And maybe he did, but when he saw that Michael had the real gun, and Lincoln had nothing anymore that he should take a risk because he knows Michael really isnt much of a criminal since he put himself in jail on purpose and would be hesistant to shoot.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Yeah, Mahone, yo. He's got a good read on Michael. Good game.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Mahone is badass. Great character addition to the series.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

It was the fake one that fell, and the fact that they had a fake gun at all is probably what lead Mahone to think that they would never use a gun on him (otherwise they would have came in with a real one).

As for their father, I imagine he'll probably come back sometime this season, when the time is right. The actor who plays him (Tony Denison) is one of the main characters on The Closer, and since that show has finished shooting its second season, he should be free to come back and do Prison Break.

Really? So he starts struggling with them while they have the *real* gun? Why didn't Lincoln tell Michael to shoot Mahone, then? It was the moment to rescue LJ! They wouldn't have wasted that chance if they had the means to do it right.

Also, another question: how long does it take for a reattached hand to work again? Since I don't know about severed hands... is it really possible to reattach it? Could a vet really have known how to do that? Aren't there nerves and... stuff that you need to put in place? So, will T-Bag be able to use the hand right away or what?

Mahone knew that Michael hasn't got the balls to shoot him, Lincoln couldn't grab the gun off Michael either as he would have had to let go of his son, but if the gun were in Lincoln's hands Mahone may not have grabbed onto LJ's legs as by the looks of things Lincoln would have shot him to save his son.

We have seen the hand reattached but we haven't really seen T-Bag actually meaningfully use it or move the fingers, its just sort of remained limp.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

Does anybody believe the vet is still alive? After all, we didn't see what kind of injection T-Bag used on him, or did I miss something here? I don't know, but for some strange reason, I simply refuse to believe that he killed him in cold blood after all he did.

I have to agree because they did give quite a few close camera shots on the supposed dead body sort of implying that something would happen, but I suppose we must wait for the next episode. Personally I think he will wake up and call the cops.

Wow! So Mahone really knew Michael wouldn't shoot him! What a good character. He *knew* how Michael would react after all that studying he did!

Yes, even in the car scene. So, is he driving with one hand only?

No way the doctor still lives. The way he was killed was T-Bag's way of thanking him... not butchering him, that is!

Of course I don't know what he used to kill him... I mean, would there be something poisonous in that room he uses to treat animals that T-Bag would have known would kill a person?

What would *that* say about T-Bag? That he can't even kill someone? I really don't think we'll see that doctor again.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

after the first two episodes, i think it's starting to slow down. but the flow of the episodes is pretty nice; pick a few characters each episode and follow their story lines. albeit it does drag it out (i hope it won't drag it out to a third season if unnessecary), but imho it's better than having them stick as a group. i'd really like to see what crappens with tweener.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

How did Belleck get that kind of information? And there's no way police would think someone died in that explosion. It was too suspicious and there are no bodies. Sloppy. Just sloppy.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Yeah, I was wondering why Michael still bothered with the car after noticing the bag was gone. Then it was this explosion crap, okay. But on the radar, the cell phone stopped at that location for a while. Minutes later they see the explosion. That's suspicious, indeed. It was pretty sloppy.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?

Yeah, a bit, but just because a car falls off a bridge doesnt mean it has to explode immediately right?

And what is with that bald guys file. Mahone had it and it seems that it is likely the body parts that Scofield had. How did he get them? How did Mahone have this file? And wtf does he know at the 'crash' site?

I loved the flashbackk scene to the second ep in the elevator. Shows that they knew it was a little weird and will explain it more later.

I was speaking idiomatically.

Eh, last night's episode was alright, but it was kinda pointless for what it achieved in the end. Michael went through all that trouble for something that would, at most, keep the FBI off their trail for about a week. He says they'll be in Mexico by then, but knowing this show, you know that ain't gonna happen.

And now that they're all out, everybody else's stories seem pretty boring. They're definitely dragging those out, because once they're over, they're over. They still have the money to deal with of course, so maybe something good will come of that.

What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now?

my guess. is that three of them will reach the money at roughly the same time.

FELIPE NO

WHO IS THIS BALD GUY ON THE FILE? AM I MISSING SOMETHING OR WAS THIS NOT EXPLAINED YET!?

Double Post:
Also at least one part of Scofields plan is done. One less real crime dood has offed. I think he only really cares about getting rid of TBAG now. I actually though they might carrie out the Fibanacci story a little more.

What, you don't want my bikini-clad body?

It was explained in the last episode at the scene of the car wreck. The bald guy is one that got away, a case that our talented FBI agent never finished.

I feel safe in saying that this episode was better than the earlier ones this season. I only have two problems. Why did the two ex-cops pretty much try to kill the two brothers if they really wanted them to lead them to the money? How does T-Bag, I mean, Clyde beat up that guy using one hand?

Most amazing jew boots

They never tried to kill the brothers. Dude man TBAG is a serial killer. It's assumed.

Oh and thanks for clarifying that. That makes sense now.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
