The Art of Deal 313

Prison Break, season 3 finale. "The Art of the Deal." Figures it's the last episode of the season that finally steps it up and hits us back where we used to love it.

I'm actually sitting on my bed infront of the tv instead of at my computer sideways. In short it's been a while since I've given PB my undivided attention. But something about tonight's episode (maybe the Michael & Gretchen anticipation) begs for it.

1. The brothers running to a car and speading off. Very season 2-esque. Are you kidding? The previous episode ending that way just to have them tail him and probably catch him in a chase. Lol. Mikey knows how to run and stop himself. Lol. Ohhh, he went the wrong way. Whistler calls Gretchen to pick him up! I knew he wasn't scared of her. And Linc knocks him out and guesses who was on the phone. Haha. Ooop, Linc hung up on her cause his plan is shot, she's already there. "You were calling them to pick you up!" Thank you Michael, for not buying into his cracp. Ohhp, cops are coming.

2. Please let innocent McGrady go free.

3. Poor Sucre's beaten to all hell. That sucks.

4. Michael calling Gretchen! She's actually rather honored to be talking to the brains. Lol. He's thinking public place, no funny games. She's thinking public place and being exposed. Haha. Is it bad that I really enjoyed this banter?

5. Of course w/ Lechero down Sona is in chaos. T-bag wants to help him. Legitimately. Wow. He seemed so desperate there and honest. And Bellick's helping just cause he needs friends. Lol.

6. Mahone and a Indiana Jones hat. And a club soda. Good boy. Awe, he's inbetween jobs. Lol. Is he going to rob the banco or something?

7. They want Sucre to dig his own grave. That's just wonderful.

8. Gretchen smirking when she leans up in front of Michael. And he has his own unique smile on his face. Kind of sexy. "You know you're the first to ever break out of Sona." The woman is propositioning him to work for the company. To be on their side. LMAO. RIGHT! Michael getting up, looking like he's ready to grab his nephew when they come around the corner. Ahh, Linc's got a gun on Whistler (who's eager to get to Sofia) and the company has a sniper on Linc. Michael looks like he really does just want Lj safe with them but instead he has to wait, he gives Linc a look and they move. It's not the exchange point just a comformation. Michael kind of rocks! He'll call her with the next location. Then when Lj is safe, him and her are going to spend some quality time. AHHH! She rebuts with he better run for his life. And cut! That gave me the chills. I won't lie! Pretty good scene there!

9. They're not going to find McGrady. We know this. It's standard PB tension builder. Yay. McGrady safe. One more stop. No, you shouldn't be stopping.

10. Lechero's not scared but Bellick is. Peroxide in a bullet wound. Oww. "Maybe you've been to busy dying to notice." LOL. Ohh, apparently Suzie Sona is taking bribes.

11. Gretchen answereing the phone with "Michael." I kind of love it. That she's dealing with him now. Michael stole a flecha from the gift shop. Why? Haha, it's the art museum cause they have metal detectors. She was not happy. I love it. Lj! "You, thinking you can out smart my uncle." I think that was the best line ever from him! Back on the phone. She makes another neck threat. Seriously woman. I'm gonna kill ya! Bitch! Sofia's working on her last nerve too. Lol.

12. Linc seeing Lj from across the room. Smiles, looking ready to hug. Sofia looking at Whistler like she's not sure what she's feeling about him but he's happy to see her. Michael demands Lj first. She lets him go with her snarky smile nicey nice voice. Linc and Lj hug. Yay. And Whistler walking over to Sofia. Gretchen actually looks like she has feelings here though. But then I think about Michael and how he hasn't anyone to hug. Sofia's a bit reluctant in her hug with Whistler but he's happy to have her back. Linc brings Lj over and ushers him into his uncle Mikey's arms! It was sweet! The dynamic of that shot. And so when all the hugs are done I'm missing Sara. Ohh Sofia is badgering them about the coordinates and she's definitely annoying Gretchen. And they lie to her or something but she doesn't like it. So she walks away from him, and onto Michael, Lj, and Linc's side.

13. Michael knows she has agents outside the doors. He points out that it's locked in case of an emergency. "What emergency? This one." Mikey crashes his elbow into the glass case. YESSS! That was perfect. He walks up to her and they look at eachother. "We're all walking out of here. Together." That smirk, and cut! Michael Scofield it's damn good to have you bakc. I love you. And Gretchen has to be a little impressed. He is smart.

14. All of them walking together. It's hot. "They're not looking for a con Gretchen, they're looking for a thief." Haha. Whistler trying to reassure Sofia. And Linc and Lj behind them.

15. Sucre lays down. Even if he knew...

16. Ohh, T-bag smothered Lechero. Brad was a baby.

17. They're getting patted down. Michael set up Whistler. I knew he stole it for a reason. But Gretchen knocks it off as plastic. Still they want identification. Gretchen gets one of her goons to try to shoot but they're taken down as a gun shot fires and there is chaos. Whistler and Sofia on ground. Linc ushering Lj back then yells for Sofia! OMG. She got shot in the side. Whistler has to abandon her. But Linc doesn't. He runs up to her. OMG I love it! Lj is there but telling him he can't do this that they have to go. But he's not leaving her. OMG. I loved that. He's really got to care about her if he's not listening when Lj's got a point. But still we (I) love Linc and Sofia so I'm proud he's trying to help her, cause he really cares about her. Just remember the Eiffel tower!

18. Michael ran off too though. To the car. To get a gun! It's always been him having to grab one in a tussel for his life but here he went for it. Whistler wants to hurt Gretchen for all the pain she caused Sofia. Still we don't know exactly what they're relationship is too eachother. They're getting in the can. Michael sees them and raises his gun to Gretchen's figure standing behind the can. His arm is shaking. He won't be able to do it. Though his eyes really tell of his motive here. Gun shots fly though before he can. So they get away.

19. Lj's still trying to get Linc to leave but tells him he'll stay with Sofia but he CAN NOT stay there with the police showing up. I love this side of Linc! He looks at Lj, because he's got to be seperated from him again and because he wants to know he'll stay with her. Hopefully they won't be parted for long.

20. Whistler wants to go back for her. But Gretchen says how she already left him. Ohh, and he doesn't have the book. Woops.

21. Stopping for McGrady's welcome home part. AWE! That's really awesome.

22. Sucre's out of the grave. Told to find out where they are. Instead he makes sure every one's okay and than says his last words to Michael like they're a goodbye but also proudly. I really thought he was gonna get shot. Nope. They're just sticking him in Sona. That can't be legal. And T-bag's running it. Just great!

23. Sofia's awake. And Lj's checking on her. Yay! Ohh, she whispered something to Lj to tell Linc.

24. OMG. I couldn't write about this scene until the entire episode was done because once this one had me crying. I really didn't stop. Cause I knew about this scene ahead of time, and that it was gonna kill me. But the flashback! That was a fast one. That threw me for a loop. It was just too much. So I came back to write about it and started crying all over again. I liked that Linc was right there making sure Sofia was okay. Then that Lj turned right to Michael and was really good with the sensitivity of the issue he was about to talk about. He's turned into a very good young man. He says he found it in the room where they were keeping him and Sara, and he though he'd like it. And he hands him the origami rose, flattened. Michael slips it into his fingers, just looking at it sadly. I think I heard LJ apologize either before or after but I can't remember because my eyes were welling up and I was saying OMG. And then my upper body literally jumped back when they cut to the flashback. When he walked past her desk in the infirmary and she found it. I wasn't expecting it. It came so fast and brought back so much and just how badly I miss those scenes and the fact that he's reminded of how she's gone and how much he loved her. And back to an even sadder Michael. The emotion coming over him. He taps his hand on Lj's shoulder as thanks him while he passes by to lean against the wall with Sara's Requiem playing for music. And Lj is coming up to Linc in the background and telling him that Sofia told him about something in her apartment about Whistler. Linc wants to let it go, says he doesn't care. But Michael's fierce eyes come back (you know the ones he had when he asked Sara if somone had hurt her in season 2). They lift up and he's interested in knowing what she told him. Linc tries to convince him that it's done but Michael snaps sternly back on him that he wants to know. Damn right. It's not over Linc.

25. Mahone still at the bar. Someguy comes in and pays it's tab. Ohh, It's Whistler. All of a sudden looking like he's in charge again. But saying "she" handles the money. She being Gretchen waiting outside. Mahone makes a crack about her better being able to handle more than that. After what she did to Sara. If it's true or something like that. Did this not sound like she may have done something other to Sara than what she says she did? Because then Mahone goes onto say that because of it, Michael's going to come after her, and he doesn't want to be cleaning up Whistler's mess. But he's still in. Ohh Mahone. I thought you were going to clean up your act. Nope. And Whistler's apparently forgotten all about Sofia and ready to do his job, whatever that is, with the company.

26. Linc, Lj, and Mikey at Sofia's apartment looking around. Michael finds the case but it's locked. "Linc, I need your gun." Lol. File on Jason Lief. They don't know who it is but if it's important to Whistler than he can use it to find him, and then Gretchen. Linc tries to stop him saying that they're all finally together, but Michael's on a mission. He reminds him that they killed Sara. And that's the first time I think Michael's really said it like it resonated with him. Like he believed it and it was his reason now. We finally get a serious brotherly scene where they really reflect on what this has really cost them. Linc says he's really sorry and he did everything he could. Michael knows. And he accepts it. I think he forgave Linc for lying here. But now he's got to leave them. Linc gives him the keys, understanding he has to do this for himself but I think also realizing this may be the end of the brother he knows.. And Michael throws his arms around him and Linc brings his up too. Michael's eyes look around and then close. And I thought this was going to be quick. But then they really held on and it really got to me. Closing their eyes and just holding onto eachother. And then Michael's tightened, sad, eyes are closed before he sniffles and just pulls away from him and walks off. Cause he needed to break away quickly, to leave them behind. For some reason, when the hug ended up be longer and more endearing than I expected it reminded me of the riot hug for some reason. No clue why. It just did. And that spanish song starting during the scene, very beautiful and poignant.

27. And then we get the beginning of the end.

a. Gretchen, Whistler, and Mahone in their car.
b. McGrady and his basketball hoop. Bellick, T-bag, and Sucre in Sona. Poor Sucre. He really doesn't belong there.
c. Linc putting his hand into Sofia's, Lj watching behind him, noticing his father really cares for her I think. And then Lj caresses his hand over her head and she sweetly smiles at him. That was really sweet. I can't really express the way I really liked his affection for her.
d. Camera cuts to a floor view of Michael driving. And then to the flattened origami rose, and a gun on the passengers seat. That shot was too iconic. It's who Michael Scofield is now. A man on his way to avenge the woman he loved. A gun and a rose. I was crying a little cause of the music during the goodbye between the brothers but here I started gasping and bawling all over again. Holding my hands over my mouth. Tears silently streaming down my face.
e. More McGrady and his hoop. Those left in Sona.
f. Sophia turning to face Lincoln who's looking out the window. With a look on his face, like he knows his brother is out there, about to loose himself. And behind him you see Lj walk over to Sofia's side and she smiles at him. I'll admit, I was thinking of a kind of family moment there. Future icon material.
g. And finally Michael, driving on his way to find them. This definitely felt like a finale with the big new cliffhangers being who the name is that Michael found and what exactly Mahone, Gretchen and Whistler are doing together.

Who knows if there's gonna be a 3rd season but I feel like they could really go somewhere from here. Especially if they bring SWC back.

Prison Break - Nick Santora Answers Some Questions!

Prison Break Episode 3.13 left us with some questions, some of which Nick Santora kindly answered over at PBreakFans!

Why is Lincoln still running??
Linc is running from the cops because about a half dozen witnesses saw him hijack a bus in episode 11, remember? He is hardly the #1 priority in Panama considering there was just a prison break at Sona, but he sure doesn’t want to be recognized.

What is up with Mahone/Whistler??
I can’t tell you what the Mahone/Whistler conversation leads to, you’ll have to watch next season and feel free to rewatch the scene because those 2 actors play great off of each other.

So what DOES the Bird Book Contain?
I can’t tell you what Whistler’s book was really about (you’ll find out if you watch next season) but as we all learned tonight, there were no coordinates - that was all a ruse — which, if you go back and watch older episodes, you’ll see that Susan was torturing Sophia for no reason other than convincing Michael that Whister was also in a bad situation with Susan — i.e., to convince Michael that if Whistler’s true love was being tortured, then he must be an innocent pawn as well. It was all a show for Michael — a show that Whistler did not agree to — so his reaction to the torture was genuine anger, which only served to make the lie even more effective. Wow, Susan really is a bitch.
