Prison Break: Episode 4.8, "The Price" Recap
Prison Break: Episode 4.8, "The Price" Recap
On tonight's episode of Prison Break, Lincoln is shown in a flashback, with an associate of his, causing a car accident in order to obtain something valuable in a briefcase.  In present day, Michael and Gretchen meet up in a church and form an alliance, but only out of necessity.  When Michael lets Sara know that Gretchen is still alive, she immediately has flashbacks to the torture she experienced while being held hostage.  Sara is shown, tied to the ceiling, while being whipped.  Michael catches Roland acting bizarre and secretive and when he walks away, he sends a text message to Wyatt, offering up Michael and Lincoln.

The man demanding Scylla from T-Bag shows up again and smashes his head into his desk.  Gretchen steps in and offers to work with him.  If she retrieves it, she'll walk away with $125 billion.  Michael starts planning a car crash, where some of them will pose as EMTs, in order to get close to The General.  While getting ready to head out, Michael tells Lincoln to stay out of his business, referring to the fact that he told Sara about the nosebleeds. As Sara leaves, Roland tries to tell her what he did but ends up apologizing for what happened in Vegas instead.  She receives a phone call from Don, who delivers a message from Gretchen.  It seems she wants to meet up with Sara tonight, to clear the air, but Sara turns her down.

Once everyone leaves for the stakeout, Roland receives a text message from Wyatt: $1 million if he can give the brothers up today.  Roland texts back and tells him to consider it done.  Gretchen tells T-Bag that his cut of the Scylla deal will only be $25 million and that Michael and his group will most likely not be around to get their cut.  She also reveals that Scylla is a lot more than The Company's little black book, which explains why it's so valuable to so many people.  Right before the stakeout starts, Sara tells Michael symptoms he should look for if he does, in fact, have a tumor but he says that he's fine.

As soon as the car cash is about to start, Wyatt runs out of his car, firing at Lincoln and Sucre, hitting Sucre.  The plan is abandoned and everyone heads back to the warehouse as Sara begins working on saving his life.  Michael immediately confronts Roland, who gets defensive.  Michael drops it and instead tells Roland to get a license plate number for him.  Don meets with Gretchen and T-Bag, who promises to kill them if they ever step foot on American soil once Scylla has been retrieved.

The General tells Wyatt to bring him the brothers today or consider himself fired.  Sara takes the bullet out of Sucre's side and bandages him up.  Don calls Michael, letting him know that Roland has gone missing.  He took the car, the laptop, and left his ankle monitor to go meet up with Wyatt.  Michael, Lincoln, Bellick, and Mahone go off in search of him while Sara stays behind to take care of Sucre. 

At the meeting, Roland asks for the money but Wyatt shoots him in the leg, asking him where the brothers are.  Sara decides to head to the hotel to meet up with Gretchen.  She offers Sara a whip and 5 minutes to put as many scars on her back as possible, to even things.  Sara puts down the whip and picks up a knife, cutting Gretchen's throat ever so slightly.  On her way out, Sara promises that when this is over, Gretchen will pay for Michelle.  As Wyatt continues shooting Roland, Mahone attacks him from behind with the other guys in tow, dragging Wyatt along with them.

The General meets with top Company associates, extremely concerned that Michael is making a move on his card.  He demands that Scylla be moved, immediately.  Michael tries to head off with Roland's laptop and phone but as he lays dying on the ground, he apologizes to Michael and says he's not ready to go.  Michael holds his hand until he finally dies.
