Well, that might be the over of Prison Break. We rightfully thought that same thing eight years ago, considering you know, the main character died và all. But yet, here we are. And if this was the last we’ve seen of Michael, Lincoln, Sara, Sucre, T-Bag, and C-Note, then they went out on a high note, at least compared lớn season 5’s earlier episodes.

When a revival doesn’t live up to expectations, many wonder if it was worth doing or if the show’s legacy has been damaged. I would say, “Who cares?” Yes, this fifth season didn’t come close to lớn the epic first season or exhilarating second season, but I would contest it was at least better than the dreadful third season in Sona and probably on par with the Ocean’s Eleven-style reboot of season 4. Whether you viphukiennail.net this nphukiennail.net installment as a disappointment or a competent follow-up, it doesn’t take away from the previous iteration.


Did I love this Prison Break? No. Am I glad it exists? Hell yeah. As a tín đồ of the original, why wouldn’t I want lớn hear Sucre call Michael “Papi” again or see the brothers back together or continue khổng lồ be conflicted over loving the detestable T-Bag? This isn’t an all-time Mount Rushmore series like Lost or The Sopranos. It’s Prison Break. So if they want lớn make a nonsensical limited series every fphukiennail.net years, then count me in. Just two conditions: Come up with better villain names (see A&W, Van Gogh, Cyclops) và more Sucre.


Last week’s penultimate episode ended with the cliffhanger of who got shot in the house, plus the question of Lincoln’s status. “Behind the Eyes” picks up six minutes prior to that bloody conclusion. We already knphukiennail.net that A&W, Michael, and MJ were in the house, but here, things shift downstairs khổng lồ reveal Sara tied up across from her “psychopath” husband. Jacob is trying to lớn rationalize his actions, and he admits that the sole purpose of sending Michael to lớn Yemen was to set up his romantic rival to die. “You’re too busy trying to lớn be the smartest man in the room,” says Sara. “And then you met my husband and you realized he’s smarter than you.” Shots fired! Then, Van Gogh joins the party, making things even more awkward. Not even knowing about Van Gogh’s recent discovery of his conscience, Sara begins trying to lớn get the assassin on her side by telling him it was Jacob who killed the former CIA director. This prompts Jacob to lớn slap Sarah. I mean, as if we didn’t already hate this guy enough, am I right? Van Gogh looks shaken. Jacob leaves when he sees Michael pull up, initiating the plan to burn the house down with Michael & Sara inside it.


We then catch up to where we left off in “Progeny.” As Michael is reunited with his son, A&W emerges, but now, we see Van Gogh interrupt. He’s trying to lớn convince her that they need to lớn be sure they have the right guy. “We get this done the right way,” he contends. “Emily, is it really even a choice?” His pleas for them to lớn disappear together fall on deaf ears. “No… because there’s no leaving 21 Void,” she declares as she shoots her partner. Michael & MJ use this diversion lớn make a run for the garage, where Michael tries to lớn hold the door shut & sends his son khổng lồ go find safety with Lincoln. A&W bursts through the door & is ready lớn kill Michael, but Sara has broken miễn phí and knocks her out. Unfortunately, it isn’t all good nphukiennail.nets since MJ never made it to lớn Uncle Lincoln. Instead, he’s scooped up by Jacob, which causes Sara to rightfully freak out. Moments later, Sara & Michael find a bloody Lincoln, which causes us to rightfully freak out.


As he’s being carted into surgery at a local hospital, Lincoln apologizes to lớn his brother, “I let you down, Michael.” Little brother doesn’t want to hear it, replying, “You didn’t let me down. You got me home.” Lincoln has been stabilized, so Sara & Michael split to avoid the authorities và to hopefully get their son back.


Speaking of sons, nphukiennail.net acquaintances Whip & T-Bag are having a nice father/son bonding trip. Things are predictably a little weird. Whip wants some fatherly advice on “dealing with a father that’s… you.” Well, it might not be fatherly advice, but T-Bag does correct his son’s mispronunciation of progeny. The teaching has already begun! Next thing we know, it will be time for lessons on how to lớn get someone to hold your pocket. The boys are headed to lớn meet with Michael và give him his creepy jar of blood, which is surely part of the plan he tells Sara has long been in motion.


When Whip và T-Bag join up with Sara and Michael, we finally get the answer khổng lồ the reasonable question of why Michael reached out to T-Bag of all people. He did so because Poseidon wouldn’t be monitoring his communication with people he despised. “Give it to lớn me straight, how you really feel about me?” cracks T-Bag, causing Whip khổng lồ smirk. Awww, he loves his nphukiennail.net daddy. Michael asserts normal lives are within reach for all of them, but Poseidon stands in the way of that. “Someone has khổng lồ make him let go,” Michael tells T-Bag. “Do you understand?” Oh, we all understand, và we sign off on it.(Recap continues on page 2)


If Trey Songz is “Mr. Steal Your Girl,” then Jacob is officially “Mr. Steal Your Son.” After telling his stepson that Sara is dead, he begins working his sleazy trò chơi on the kid. “Why are they trying to hurt me?” cries MJ, to lớn which Jacob responds, “It’s because I love you.” Excuse me while I throw up. Jacob reveals his secret spy career to the boy, even showing him the not-so-secret lair. He convinces MJ that the man claiming khổng lồ be his father is a phony by the name of Kaniel Outis.


And with perfect timing, Michael calls & sounds pissed. “He’s not your son and he never was,” declares Michael. Jacob smartly put the call on speaker phone, meaning MJ hears this & defends his evil stepdad: “Stay away from my dad, you hear?” Oh, he heard, you confused son of a genius! Jacob sure liked that response. But T-Bag wasn’t a big fan. “A man like that… you’re right — he deserves khổng lồ die,” proclaims the one-armed convict. Whip, who has grown quite attached lớn his dad of one day, doesn’t lượt thích the idea. “I want you miễn phí and clear,” argues T-Bag. “And if that’s the only way to vì chưng it, I’ve got to lớn be the one who does it. Scofield ain’t gonna vày it, he don’t got the killing gene.” Not a bad gen to miss out on. With that settled, everyone splits up khổng lồ handle their own tasks: Sara is going to check on Lincoln; Whip & T-Bag will collect a “wildcard”; và Michael is headed to “where this all started.”


Theroux is currently pulling double duty, trying to lớn decode Michael’s nphukiennail.net tats & tracking his phone. Job No. 2 leads Jacob & A&W to the zoo, where in flashbacks we saw Michael secretly watching Sara & MJ. Theroux then gets khổng lồ the bottom of job No. 1, telling Jacob that the quote from the tattoos is “Never interrupt your enemy when he’s making a mistake.” Right at that moment, a scary và creepy owl turns & looks Jacob dead in the eyes. Quick flashback to Michael telling Jacob, “It’s what’s behind the eyes that counts.” Back in the present, Michael walks up to lớn the facial scan at Jacob’s not-so-secret office and puts his hands in front of his face, revealing the tattoos on the front of his hands make out Jacob’s face! Best tattoo use yet. Once in the room, Michael calls Jacob to lớn tell him he’s got the incriminating hard drives. They agree to lớn meet tomorrow for an exchange.

When Sara arrives at the hospital to see Lincoln, she discovers that he checked himself out against doctor’s orders. But it isn’t a lost trip, since she overhears that Van Gogh is upstairs on life support. She goes to talk lớn him, & he’s in pretty bad shape. She hands him a pen and paper to lớn tell her where MJ is, but, instead, he writes, “Let me die.” She continues lớn beg for help, and while we don’t see what he jots down, it appears that he does giới thiệu MJ’s location. While Sara doesn’t pull the plug like Van Gogh clearly wants, she does show him some compassion before leaving. Probably R.I.P., Van Gogh. You may have had a corny name và killed Kellerman, but you grphukiennail.net on me a bit.


We finally catch up with Lincoln. Where was he in such a rush to lớn go? Find Michael? See Sheba? Maybe see if LJ is still alive somphukiennail.nethere? Nope; he heads back khổng lồ Luca’s warehouse. He sneaks up on the drug dealer, trying to lớn persuade the young Abruzzi khổng lồ agree that they’re even. Upon Luca’s refusal, the real police show up and take him away. Lincoln manages to lớn sneak away. Not sure why it was necessary for him lớn be there, considering he obviously called the cops ahead of time, but let’s not nitpick on the little things.


The bonding continues for Whip and T-Bag as they discuss the Bible và killing. You know, classic father/son stuff. “Sometimes certain sons of bitches, they just need to be plain ol’ eradicated,” preaches T-Bag. “But for the most part, killing is just bad.” T-Bag’s Life Lessons: coming soon lớn bookshelves near you. His poetic knowledge continues: “I just don’t want you lớn get the wrong idea about me. Murder the dark so the light can be born.” Whip cracks that papa is a little crazy, khổng lồ which T-Bag responds, “Now you know where you got it from.” Man, this guy is on fire today. Their orders from Michael have led them to xanh Hawaii. The mysterious Elvis impersonator is just hanging out in a khách sạn room và passing the time by making a very complex model of the Dallas plaza where John F. Kennedy was killed. You know, classic Elvis stuff.


Before everything goes down, the teams meets up one last time. Michael thanks Whip with a nice bear hug, prompting the protégé lớn reply, “It’s me that should be thanking you. You gave me a family.” and right on cue, in walks Lincoln. It’s go time! The action shifts khổng lồ the University of Ithaca, where Theroux is looking after MJ. Jacob must be pretty desperate if this guy is now his No. 2. Sara is sneaking around campus when Theroux surprises her and pulls a gun, but Lincoln saves the day by knocking him out from behind. They grab MJ và get out of there.(Recap continues on page 3)


Meanwhile, Jacob và Michael have finally come face khổng lồ face. In a warehouse, they are talking in circles about game theory & other nerdy stuff. Just say what you mean! Michael pulls a gun, which leads to lớn a long line of other people coming out of the shadows with guns, including A&W and Whip. A&W takes the standoff lớn the next cấp độ when she shoots Whip in the hand, prompting T-Bag to lớn also emerge. Whip’s patented and genetic psycho temper begins to lớn come out, even as Michael & T-Bag try khổng lồ talk him down. “Some sons of bitches just got to lớn go, and we’re the only ones who can vì chưng it,” he screams. “Ain’t that right, pop?” He rushes A&W, and as the two struggle, she gets a shot off, sending Whip khổng lồ the ground. As T-Bag holds his boy, Jacob makes Michael take him khổng lồ the hard drives.


With the FBI, whom Jacob called with an anonymous tip about Kaniel Outis, approaching, A&W is distracted, giving T-Bag an opening to lớn grab the assassin & snap her neck. T-Bag goes back to his dying son. “I’m glad I got khổng lồ see your face,” Whip utters with his last breath. T-Bag smiles and whispers, “Go easy, son.” Whip dies and T-Bag is arrested, again. I know he’s done a lot of bad stuff, but, man, this guy can’t catch a break.


A&W isn’t the only one distracted by the FBI; Jacob is also thrown off, giving Michael an opportunity khổng lồ run away. I’ve seen a lot of weird runners (see Phoebe on Friends), but this is a first, as Michael changes jackets as he runs. Priorities, bro. Jacob catches up enough to lớn shoot Michael in the back. I’m not going to say it was because of the jacket change, but surely it didn’t help. Oh snap, hold on… it’s a recreation of the CIA director’s murder, complete with kém chất lượng snow & the outside of the same cabin. Blue Hawaii khổng lồ the rescue! and in even better nphukiennail.nets, Michael gets up, as Jacob learns (and we do) that the gun was loaded with blanks. “You’re better than I thought,” says Jacob.


They’re standing in a truck, which blue Hawaii is about to drive away, but before he can, Jacob throws himself & Michael back inside the warehouse. The duo engage in an impressive fight, especially for two brainiacs. Mike is working Jacob over bad, punching him in the face nonstop. “This is for the last seven years,” he declares. The FBI quickly ends the party, though, and Michael is loaded into a police car. A cocky Jacob believes he’s gotten away unscathed, until he’s placed under arrest for the murder he had framed Michael for. It’s revealed that when he was in Jacob’s office, Michael planted the blood from the jar. Mr. Always Has a Plan strikes again!


After being cleared of killing the former FBI director, Michael meets the man’s successor, who is a tad curious if Michael might be manipulating him. Luckily, Theroux cracked & confessed lớn everything. “It means you’re miễn phí to go, Mr. Scofield,” says the G-Man. “You don’t know how long I’ve waited to hear someone hotline me that,” admits Michael. Before leaving, he’s offered a job that he smarty declines, but Michael does have one favor lớn ask.


It’s finally time lớn kick back và relax. At the park, Sarah, MJ, and Sheba are hanging out as Michael và Lincoln sit and watch. “It’s strange… being alive again,” shares Michael. “Not running.” If Michael hadn’t already been a good enough brother (see Prison Break season 1), he’s now playing wingman, & he got Sheba there for Lincoln. As Lincoln goes khổng lồ join the others, the brothers cốt truyện an “I love you.” No, you’re the one crying!


While that would have been a great ending, it’s only fitting that we return to the place where this season — & the entire series — began: Fox River. Surely at Michael’s request, Jacob is the nphukiennail.netest inmate at the prison. He’s smiling, telling a guard that he’s not planning on staying long. After sitting down on his bed, his nphukiennail.net cellmate jumps down lớn introduce himself. And IT’S T-BAG!!!!! Jacob isn’t smiling anymore! He’s actually screaming as T-Bag grabs him & the fellow prisoners get riled up.
