Not as good/funny as the previous weeks, but still entertaining. Richard Burgi is a very charismatic guy and made a fun smug and arrogant con of the week.

at Josie Davis

at this being mostly about Shea wanting to get laid badly. I liked his unofficial conjugal visit at the task force headquarters.

Judging by the final scene with his girlfriend, I think they are leading us to believe he may plan an escape in the future.

I did like Julianne's scene at the end with Shea standing up for herself and letting Shea know that she isn't a pushover.

I thought the guy was going to get away this week.

So did I. And I know I say this like every week, but they need to have someone get away to keep the show suspenseful and also establish some recurring villains.

I think there are two ways of looking at the final scene, but maybe I'm reading too much into it. Regardless...

The first is like you said, laying the foundation for a possible escape from Shea in the future. This would make for an interesting development in the show, since it would pit the team against Shea, who has added insight into how they work. The problem there is that it puts the rest of the team's continued existence into jeopardy, but I imagine they could find away around that without too much trouble.

The second, is that the scene was actually Shea proposing marriage to his girlfriend. Since they were talking about conjugal visits and how hard it is to get them, it led me to believe that if you are married it is easier somehow? I mean, he gave her a diamond at the end, right? It seemed like a possibility to me, but I think the first interpretation is the more likely of the two.

I liked that scene as well. While this wasn't the best episode and was lacking in the humor, it was still pretty good. It was nice to see that Julianne wasn't fooled by what Shea and that she stood up to him in the end.

Next week is a recurring villain from last week's episode. The guy with the Florida postcard. They said there was no info on him. He escapes again next week and it's revealed he's a hitman.

I haven't had a chance to watch this yet but my guide had a very weird description for the episode - I had to take a picture of it. I assumed it was wrong, otherwise Breakout Kings was taking a very unexpected turn.

If my guide is to believed, #BREAKOUTKINGS takes a VERY unexp... on Twitpic

">Also the description sounds at least HALF right <img src=">
