the way they were fixing the camera on him, i was also thinking he's not dead..

and didn't we see t-bag move a finger or 2 before he threw up?

Like 24, you have to suspend all sense of reality while watching this show. Aside from the ridiculousness of the vet performing successful microvascular surgery at a fucking animal hospital, there's no way T-bag would have been in shape to overpower anyone moments after said surgery - without any anesthetic. He even grabbed the doc by the throat with the bad arm!

I think Michael and Lincoln will try to intercept the van transporting LJ before it gets to AZ. And they'll be close to Utah, where they need to be to get the money anyway.

It is pretty sad when Tweener is the smartest one of the bunch.

I hope the Fichtner character isn't a know-it-all L&O:CI Goren clone. That will get old really fast.

At least the Vet went out on a career high.

Great episode ! I can't believe people are complaining!

Accept the show for what it is, fun, farfetched escapist drama

I like how this has turned into It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad Mad Mad World as everybody rushes off to Utah. I hope Phil Silvers shows up to give Haywire a ride.

If Fichtner is supposed to be a pill popping super FBI agent, how did he not realize that Lincoln was pointing a fake gun at him? The water gun doesn't have a barrell like a real gun, and the toy looked like it came from the $1 store since it was made out of yellow plastic. Still an enjoyable episode nonetheless.

I still can't believe that was considered the best drama on television.

I don't know how smart it is to stroll thru a bus station with no disguise. Not even a baseball cap.

Well, he did shave his hair, so that's something. I personally think that T-Bag's "blonde highlights" disguise is far, far worse.

Really wonder exactly what happened with the vet, too. He either knocked him out so that he could kill him how he wanted with no fuss (we never did see the rest of the doc's body after the injection), felt some sort of gratitude and knocked him out long enough for him to make a getaway, or just killed him with whatever he injected him with.

too bad Bellick didnt pull the trigger

I didn't say he was smart. I said he was the smartest of the bunch. It's all relative.

The irony of this show is that Michael has left a trail of bodies all over the country in order to rescue one guy.

I'm with you. I would think with all of the planning Michael did and all of the money he sunk into this, he would have had the thought to come up with some better disguises than a suit, cap, and glasses. His brother has done nothing but change clothes.

That may be ridiculous, but I thought it was just as bad the way the guy made NO plans whatsoever to make a break for it. Granted he wasn't Ving Rhames, but he at least couldn't thrown something and outrun T-Bag in his depleted physical shape. Instead he ends up strapped to a table like a death row convict.

Yeah, and he also used that hand to dry his hair I believe.

Doc should have just grabbed the hand and pulled it back off.

Linc has a sport jacket with the top 3 buttons on his dress shirt opened up - He is disguised as SEXY!!

They painted it black, see. You would have been fooled too . Although I agree with someone else, I have no idea why dropping the FAKE gun when Michael had the REAL gun had any effect on the elevator tussle .

That must have been quick-dry paint since they sprayed it about 10 seconds before busting into the elevator.

That one made me as well.

William Fichtner made some comment like "I know you won't shoot me!"

I guess even though he has only been chasing after them for a day, he already knows that they are really good guys despite being escaped convicts.

Perhaps he watched season 1 on DVD?

I think this is gonna end up being kinda like The Fugitive in that Fichtner will slowly come to understand that Lincoln did not kill the prez's brother.

I don't care!

My DVR cut off before the preview. Can someone briefly spoiler next week's preview? Thanks.
