Prison Break 1X18: Bluff
🕑 Added 2025-01-09 23:00:04 +0000 UTCDude. This episode was so good. I'm actually a little surprised because it wasn't nearly as stressful as usual, but it was just as good!
So, Michael is busy trying to get Haywire to puke up his meds so he can remember what his tattoo looks like (or even who Michael is). Eventually, it ends up working, but a little too well, as Haywire remembers that Michael is the reason he ended up in the psych ward in the first place. But, Michael manages to convince him that he's going to take him with him when he escapes. However, Haywire eventually decides that Michael won't and he tries to use the drawing himself and gets caught immediately.
Now that Michael has the plan, he meets with the doctor to have her sign off on getting him out. She says that she knows he's ready to go, but if he doesn't tell the warden who burned him, he's going end up back in SHU and this whole thing is going to start all over again.
Meanwhile, one of the guards is busy trying to sell Michael's cell for the higher bidder to the other prisoners. Of course, the problem is, someone on our PI crew needs to stay in that cell, as it's the way out. At first C-Note thinks he's got it handled, but he's been spending so much time with the others, that his crew no longer respects him and he can't get the money. Eventually, he and Pocket Boy decide to plays cards for the money. C-Note ends up winning and offers the guard $500 for the cell. He takes the money, but says someone else paid $700, so they use DB Coopers watch to make up the difference. The guard also takes the watch, but tells him he's already sold it for $700 to someone else, and makes off with the money.
Just when it looks like we're screwed, Michael tells the warden that it was Geary (the officer who took the money from C-Note) who burned him. Pope goes to check his locker and find the money, the watch, and the burned uniform shirt that Sucre's cousin help us set up. (But, of course, now he wants in and we've already got too many people!) He immediately fires Geary, and Michael and DB Cooper end up rooming together.
Outside the prison, I have no idea what's going on. Are we back to being suspicious of Nick? Does he work for this weird company? Why are we keeping tabs on Veronica?
And speaking of Veronica, she's managed to pull some strings (or maybe not, maybe somebody wanted this to happen) and get Lincoln a face to face meeting with LJ (who is now being tried for murder). However, on the way to the meeting, the prison van is plowed into and rolls over a couple of times (see about about how somebody maybe wanted this to happen).
