Haha, LJ is a knucklehead. Did they mow Michael's hair once they sent him to the psyche ward of the prison? Loved Haywire's non-recognition of Michael...Doh!

LOL @ T-Bag taking one for the team.

Way to go, LJ. I wonder how they're going to present his defense: "Well your honor, my client only attacked this guy because he's the secret service agent that doesn't exist who killed his parents in trying to cover up a conspiracy to frame Lincoln Burrows for the murder of the Vice President's Brother who's actually still alive. Also, he killed some dude in a well, and we took his cell phone and decided not to notify the police."

A decent episode, but I get the feeling they are really treading water at this point...it's entertaining none-the-less.

I love shows that abandon a character, only to bring them back out of the blue. I did not see the Haywire link coming in like that, but man, that was brilliant.

Great entertainment. Sure, it's not entirely realistic, but what show is? I'm sure there are super secret service agents out there who have saved the world 3 times over in a 24-hour span. Sure, that's real too. Heh. Hell, this is just damn fun entertainment.

Fox has really gotten great this year. House, 24, Bones, Prison Break. All good fun.

LJ is so stupid I hope for his death just for the benefit of the species. Link could have walked by pleading mentally deficient and presenting his retarded son as exhibit A.

It may not be extremely realistic, but it's entertaining as hell for me.

Anybody else want to bone Sara on the show?

Is LJ a minor? If not, I wonder if he'll end up at Fox River too.

You pretty much knew Michael was faking his condition, but I couldn't figure out the reason why. When he snapped to attention and stared at Haywire, that was awesome.

The "wigger" is going to have to toss salad now.

I think they should make the cross-dresser a more prominent character.

I actually enjoyed several parts of the show even though I saw them coming a mile away - Michael's mental breakdown, T-Bag taking one for the team.

Bellick getting a wiff.

Too bad Kellerman/Kravecki didn't shoot LJ in the head.

I've been waiting for something bad to happen to that little tool since they first introduced him. The big bull's lines to him were priceless-

"Awww, he's just a little baby."

"I bet you don't have a hair on you."

Maybe death by buffalo jerk would be too kind a death sentence for LJ for being one of the dumbest offspring ever on scripted TV.

To me the outta the prison stuff is next to worthless but the in prison stuff keeps getting better and better.

Love the panty defence

Sure you have to throw logic out the window and enjoy the ride, i mean as if Bellick couldn't see fresh concrete which had just dried that day compared with the rest of the floor.

T Bag is too interesting a character to kill off

Once they escape, I wonder how they will incorporate all the ones inside the prison, mainly the doc. I wonder if she'll have something to do with helping them escape and go on the run with them?

Well, the LEAST of the issues is that Bellick never wonders how Sucre managed to get out of his cell/avoid not being caught missing during bedtime cell check?

Sucre told Bellick that he hid under the bleachers once yard time was over and waited until dark. As for the count issue, we've seen guards on this show count a lump of bedsheets as a person before, so maybe one of the guards was just slacking off again. We may see Bellick go to the guard who did count that night and ask him what happened next week, for all we know.

As long as we're wondering about plot oddities, though...

Why hasn't anybody filled in the vacuum left after Abruzzi was injured? They made it seem like running PI was a pretty sought-after position when we saw the other guy in Abruzzi's mob knock him out of the spot earlier on. I find it really hard to believe that nobody else in his gang is stepping up to try and get the postition.
