After they came up with a plan to break through the impossible to get through Scylla security system, taking extra special care to not set off any alarms and alert the general, Prison Break Season 4 Episode 11 ended with the general being alerted and on his way down to see Michael.
The general arrives to a group of ex-cons holding guns at his head. He asks his team to lower their weapons. Michael’s got news for the general. He just brought them the one missing piece of the puzzle: his sixth Scylla card. The general’s not overly concerned about handing over his card, seeing as they need five more.
Trishanne’s not happy being held hostage, and she starts taking it out on Self. The yelling is all part of a plot to distract them, though. Self grabs a gun, starts shooting, and they both escape. In order to save Self, however, she has to shoot Fang, who they needed.
T-Bag’s boss comes in and notices that they’re holding some rather large guns. He’s smooth about it, but Gretchen doesn’t buy, knowing their cover’s been blown. She runs through the office, gun in hand, and creates mass chaos.
With their hands on Scylla, the boys escape. The general tells them they’re not even close to getting out. They’re not taking any chances and will be taking him with them.
The general tells Scofield that the whole building is under lockdown, that nothing will get in or out, and whatever he’s waiting for isn’t coming.
Trishanne arrives to see Gretchen and T-Bag’s little hostage situation. T-Bag wants to get out of there, but Gretchen tells him to just suck it up.
The general has Lincoln pull out a photo from his desk. It’s his father. He warns him he doesn’t want to make the same misguided fatal mistake he did. Then he tries to get to Sucre by promising to pay for his little girl’s college education. Then Mahone and how Pam needs him. Then Michael and some airline tickets for him and Sara. They don’t want any of this, though. Michael wants to see the company burned to the ground and the general in prison.
He warns them that if they shoot him, they lose their leverage. Seems Sara’s been getting them some leverage of her own, as she’s kidnapped Lisa and has her call to tell him that he either needs to let them leave or Sara will kill her. “Dad, please.”
Michael agrees to leave Lisa alone as long as the general holds up his end of the deal. He agrees to walk them out.
Trishanne sneaks in and wants to sneak people out two at a time to see how many she can get out before they notice. Unfortunately, T-Bag’s boss is a bit of a dumbass who insists on running out without even trying to hide it, which causes Gretchen to begin firing. In the ensuing firefight, Gretchen and T-Bag leave, but not before the boss is shot.
Lisa wants Sara to realize that Scofield and Burrows are bad men. Apparently she’s an innocent woman who just so happens to work for a homicidal company.
Gretchen convinces T-Bag to put down his weapon. Then she pulls hers on him. They can ID him, but without him, nobody knows who she is. He manages to get away as Trishanne’s car approaches and Gretchen gets distracted. Gretchen flees while T-Bag gets grabbed.
When they get outside, the general’s got some news for them. Their father was an executioner, who trained the men who will be coming after them.
The men who were with Lisa are getting suspicious, so they barge into the ladies room to find her tied up. Sara just left. Michael and the boys are on their way to the rendezvous in the company’s armored truck. When they arrive at the airport, every single flight is delayed. Scofield and Burrows stick together inside the airport, while Sucre and Mahone are outside to place a phone call. Michael hands over his bag to the general’s guy as requested, and as the guy holding the bag, the security people want to talk to him. When they empty out his bag, he doesn’t have what he wanted, but he does have a copy of the book All’s Well That Ends Well.
They hand over Scylla to Self, who agrees to live up to his end of the bargain. Some vans will be meeting them, along with an ambulance so Michael can get some medical attention.
Sucre and Mahone are looking forward to simple things like going to a restaurant or a game.
Burrows tells Mahone that things are okay between them.
Sara starts to get worried that it’s been an hour and the convoy has not yet arrived. Michael calls Self. His number has been disconnected. Meanwhile, Self is busy eliminating Trishanne, as he has no more use for her since she doesn’t know of any more buyers for Scylla. Michael opens the envelope they were given and sees nothing but some blank pages.
