Four months ago on Prison Break: Gretchen was shot trying to double cross her team to get Scylla.  Lincoln got a phone call from his allegedly dead mother, the woman responsible for the plot to steal Scylla.  Sara rescued Michael from his Company brainwashing.

It's been a while, so let's take some time to remember a few important things about Prison Break.  Don Self and T-Bag are the comic relief, Mahone is a total bad-ass, Sucre outlived his usefulness a long time ago, Lincoln is indestructible and Michael is pretty.  As for the ladies, Sara came back from the dead more determined than ever while Gretchen double-crossed about 47 alliances in the first 16 episodes of the season.


Meanwhile, this season's MacGuffin is Scylla, the Company's master directory, and while the Fox River escapees thought they were working for the government, Self was just in it to sell to the highest bidder, namely Michael and Lincoln's mother, a former Company employee everyone thought was dead.

Four months is a long time, so I just wanted to make sure everyone was up to speed before diving into the first of Prison Break's final five episodes.

Lincoln and his band of misfit rebels are looking into who has Scylla using some keys they took from the man they killed.  Unfortunately this isn't fast enough for the General, so he tries to speed them up by sending threatening photos of their loved ones.  T-Bag's sweet old wheelchair-bound mother is in his photo, and he vows to do everything to save her.  Aww, I always knew there was a sweet mama's boy inside that cannibalistic psychopath.

The keys have a computer chip in them.  Of course they does, because there's always a computer chip on this show.  They track the owner to two different locations, so Self and T-Bag go to Little Havana while Mahone and Lincoln search a nice house.
