Aha!  So it is the case.  Michael (Wentworth Miller) and Lincoln (Dominic Purcell) are not brothers.  Four years of keeping this up, huh?  Nah, I'm not taking it against anybody.  It just felt that the development should come out of Prison Break at one point or another, although you can just take note of their close bond and their very distinct differences.  Two literal prison breaks, one elaborate get-away-from-the-authorities plan, and then the hunt for Scylla.  All for this.

So that explains why Christina (Kathleen Quinlan) doesn't exactly feel much for Linc.  All that treatment, all those cryptic phone calls, even that attempt to kill him with a clean sniper shot--I never would've guessed he was part of the plan, as the unwitting fall guy.  Catch is, he's somehow figured it out--with his, uhh, "brother" Michael figuring it out for him.  That should set up the last three episodes, although the final two are clumped together into a two-hour package next week.


On to the matters at hand, then.  We know Christina wants to secure Scylla, and take down the Company.  What's been confusing is the things she plans to do to get just that.  She just blindsided an ally by assassinating him.  She wants everything for herself?  Yeah, that makes sense.  What about the other parts of the plan?  How do they all stack up?  I'm guessing it's hard to read her mind--where else would Michael get his intellectual prowess?--and it should make for some surprises come tonight, and next week.

So, on tonight's Prison Break, she puts the final touches on her plan.  A chaotic energy conference, Scylla in her hands, Linc and his gang framed for murdering a prominent man, what else?  Also, there's the General (Leon Russom), who'll finally push through with his threats--I'm guessing that's where the framing comes in.  Finally, a big decision for Michael, as both Sara (Sarah Wayne Callies) and Linc get into trouble.  He's only got to save one of them.  I'll guess she'll have to reveal her pregnancy to him.  Just a guess.

That should set things up for next week's two-hour series finale.  But there's still tonight.  Prison Break airs at 8pm on Fox.  The photos are below, in case you haven't seen them.
