Sarah Wayne Callies Returning for Prison Break Season 4

Posted by Shane on Wednesday, April 2, 2008 at 5:09 pm


Remember how Sara Tancredi died at the start of season 3? And then they found her head in the box? Just kidding. According to E Online, Sarah Wayne Callies will be back for Prison Break season 4 as a regular character.

Apparently, that wasn’t really Sara’s head. Following a lot of people asking questions about why she’d been killed off, the producers got to thinking and decided maybe that wasn’t the right thing to do after all.

We knew internally that when we didn’t get Sarah Wayne Callies to come back in season three and be there to portray her character’s death, as soon as it was written and filmed and we saw it on screen, we knew that it was actually a way you could describe how this wasn’t Sarah’s head in the box, basically. But at that point, we were going forward with other stories, so we kind of put that on the back burner.

But throughout that time we watched how people externally were really talking about what we thought might be the case, internally: The question of, “Is Sara Tancredi really dead?” So throughout season three we were mindful of references we’d make to and who took credit for killing her and all kinds of stuff regarding her death.

Ultimately, we came back after the strike to talk about season four, and that’s when a bunch of things kind of came together, and we then had the big conversation. Is Sarah really alive and can we bring her back? And once we opened it up, it happened really quickly.

Sara’s return will allow her and Michael Scofield to have an actual relationship.

Prison Break Season 4 Confirmed by Wentworth Miller

Posted by Shane on Friday, March 14, 2008 at 6:52 pm


Wentworth Miller, who plays Michael Scofield on the Fox series Prison Break, greeted the media at a press conference in Tel Aviv, Israel, covered by the Jerusalem Post.

It doesn’t appear there is a great deal to report from the press conference. However, Miller said Prison Break will resume production for season 4 later this month and will return in September. Fox has been pretty quiet about the show returning for some reason, so it’s good to finally get this confirmation.

Prison Break Season 3 Episode 13

Posted by Shane on Monday, February 18, 2008 at 7:58 pm


Everybody got out and started running in Prison Break Season 3 Episode 12. Bellick, Lechero, and T-Bag made it all of about 20 feet. Scofield, Whistler, Mahone, and McGrady made it outside the fence. McGrady’s with his father, and we’re waiting to see how they get past the police blockade. Whistler faked an injury and then took off, just in time to prevent Lincoln from killing Mahone.

As Whistler takes off, a chase ensues. He gets a cell phone from a pedestrian and calls Susan, just in time for Lincoln to start punching and kicking him.

McGrady and his father are approaching a police blockade. They stop and ask him some questions. McGrady hides, and his father pretends he doesn’t know anything. They demand to inspect the car.

Sucre’s being tortured back at Sona, but it’s not getting them anywhere.

Michael and Susan talk on the phone. He tells her he wants to meet in 10 minutes, alone. So she rounds everyone up.

Sona’s a free-for-all. There’s plenty of looting and violence for to go around. As Lechero’s being beaten up, T-bag insists on helping him, even though Bellick would rather leave him for dead.

Mahone makes his way into a bar for a club soda. Interesting strategy for someone running from the man.

Sucre’s brought outside and given a shovel so he can dig his own grave. He starts digging.

Susan meets Michael. She suggests he should be on the same side with the Company, since they pay well. He’s got Whistler; she has Sofia and LJ. It’s not time to exchange them, though. Michael isn’t interested in doing that just yet. He just wants to make sure everybody’s alive.

McGrady’s father has fertilizer in the back of his truck. They let him go. After they drive away, McGrady crawls through a hidden compartment behind the seat.

Lechero and Bellick are both trying to convince T-Bag to get lost and stop risking his life for Lechero. T-Bag believes the guards have a price.

LJ finds the concept of Susan thinking she can outsmart Scofield to be amusing. He leads them to a building with metal detectors. Inside, they make the exchange. Everybody else is ready to just walk away, but Sofia demands that he give the coordinates. Susan reveals that there are no coordinates. James wants Sofia to come with him, but she’s not real thrilled with the idea. Susan, meanwhile, expects Michael to just walk into a trap, but he knows she’s got shooters ready at each exit, so he makes an alarm go off so that everybody will go outside together.

Sucre’s done digging his grave. He lies down as the guard demands. Then they start burying him alive.

Once they get the money, T-Bag reveals his true intent. He’s not trying to help Lechero. He wants to take the money and kill him. Lechero hands him a pillow, which he uses to smother him to death.

At the exit, Susan and Whistler are stopped by the guards, since Michael’s planted evidence on them. One of Susan’s goons comes up and shoots. He’s shoved out of the way, and his misfire hits Sofia. Lincoln refuses to leave her there, which should be an indication to her and to Whistler which side is the right side. LJ agrees to stay with her so that Lincoln can run.

Whistler has some bad news for Susan. The book is gone.

McGrady and his father stop for a homecoming party.

Once he’s all the way buried, the guards finally realize that burying Sucre isn’t going to work. Once they unbury him, the phone rings, and Sucre’s told he has to find out where they are if it’s Scofield, which it is. After finding out how everybody is, he drops the phone and breaks it, daring the guard to kill him.

T-Bag makes an announcement in the middle of the yard. He tells everybody that Lechero is dead and gives a speech about how everybody is equal. Then he holds up a fistful of cash, which he starts throwing around to the other prisoners.

Sucre’s not dead. He’s just a prisoner in Sona now.

LJ gives Michael a paper rose that he’d left for Sara back when they were in Fox River.

From her hospital bed, Sofia whispers to LJ that she found something under Whistler’s bed. Lincoln isn’t interested, but Scofield. They find some papers with the name Jason Lief. Michael doesn’t want to just get away. He wants revenge. While Lincoln heads off to the hospital to see Sofia, Michael goes to hunt down Susan.

Whistler shows up at the bar with Susan, and he’s there to get Mahone, who says he’s in. In the process, Mahone also suggests that Susan’s the weak link, and if that’s the case, Scofield will find them.

At this point, Prison Break has neither been officially cancelled nor renewed. Hopefully they pick it up for a fourth season, as there’s still obviously more left to the story. Stay tuned to dingoRUE for continued coverage.

Prison Break Season 3 Episode 12

Posted by Shane on Monday, February 11, 2008 at 7:58 pm


After months of waiting, the gang finally broke out of prison in Prison Break Season 3 Episode 11. The episode ended with the power going out, giving them 30 seconds to make a run for it.

Lechero, Bellick, and T-Bag take their sweet time getting out. Michael knows they’ve taken too long and tells the others to wait. Ignoring the warning to stop or be shot, Lechero gets shot (but not killed). Despite this, Michael doesn’t need to go to plan B because he says this is all going according to plan.

Michael knew the generator was going to kick in sooner than 30 seconds. Lincoln tries to call Sucre, but Sucre’s caught and handcuffed.

Bellick spills the plan to the guards and promptly leads them to the tunnel. While their attention is diverted elsewhere, Michael uses the distraction to head out of the tunnel. Just as the guards reach the tunnel, the last of the guys gets out. Shortly thereafter, they realize they’re four inmates short (Scofield, Whistler, Mahone, and McGrady).

By the time the guards figure it out, the guys are already through the fence and running through the jungle. During the mad dash, Whistler falls and injures his ankle, but there’s no way they’re leaving him behind.

They meet up with Lincoln, who says they have what they need. Whatever it is, it’s buried, and they have to dig it up. While this is happening, Whistler warns that the Company’s going to kill all of them after the exchange, and he tries to convince them to just let him go. What they dig up is tanks so they can be invisible (underwater). Of course, they’ve only got four tanks since McGrady was unexpected. McGrady can’t swim anyway, so Scofield offers to share with him. There’s an added wrinkle. The bird book, with the coordinates Susan wants, was dropped in the escape.

Back at Sona, the guards are kicking the crap out of Bellick, who doesn’t know anything because obviously Scofield wasn’t going to trust him with any useful information.

When they get to where they’re going, there is no Sucre waiting for them because he’s still otherwise occupied.

Using dogs, the guards figure out something’s in the sand. They do some digging and find a cooler with shoes in it, so they know exactly where they need to look now.

They see a boat coming up to them, unsure whether it’s friend or foe. It’s not Sucre, but instead McGrady’s father has taken the boat and picks them up.

Meanwhile, the guards are getting tired of beating up Bellick, so they turn their attention to T-Bag, who just happens to be thrown down in the dirt right near the book, which he grabs.

The other four head off together, leaving McGrady to go home with his father. While they’re driving off, they get a phone call from Susan, who’s right near them. The watch Whistler got from Susan is a tracking device, and they know exactly where they are.

They cause one car following them to wipe out. The second one chases them to a dead end, a cabin in the woods, where a shootout ensues. Eventually, Susan shows up to join in, realizing they’re just faking her out (either that or they’re really bad shots, since they only hit the car three times). She barges down the door to find out it’s just sound effects. They’ve all headed out back and got another car.

T-Bag tells the guards “I know less than you do, which is hard considering how dumb you are.” So then they decide to electrocute him. When he sees Sucre, who’s finally been allowed to go, he tells them Sucre knows everything.

Susan calls Lincoln, who’s stopped at an abandoned warehouse. He demands she meet them there, telling her she’s not calling the shots any more.

McGrady and his father are headed straight for a police blockade. We’ll have to find out what happens to him next week.

Sucre plays dumb, but the information about the escaped Fox River prisoners says otherwise.

Mahone says he’s going to leave. Lincoln wants to shoot him as revenge for his father. Michael tries to convince him not to, but the noise from outside (Whistler escaping) is what actually gets him to stop. He’s running pretty fast for a guy with an injured ankle, and he steals a truck and drives off.

Stay tuned to dingoRUE for another live recap of Prison Break season 3 episode 13 The Art of the Deal, which airs Monday at 8/7c on Fox.

Prison Break Season 3 Episode 11

Posted by Shane on Monday, February 4, 2008 at 7:59 pm


Sammy overthrew Lechero in Prison Break Season 3 Episode 10, but it wasn’t long before Lechero was back in charge with Sammy’s untimely death after Scofield set him up. Sucre got a bribe from Susan, which he immediately sent home to Maricruz, so now Susan knows exactly where to find her.

The plan’s to get out of there by tomorrow, a seemingly impossible task, which means it should be no problem for Michael. He breaks the news to Lincoln that T-Bag’s coming, too, and Mahone, and Bellick, and a druglord.

T-Bag warns Whistler that he shouldn’t trust Michael, the guy who’s broken him out of prison twice now.

While they’re digging, it starts raining. Worried that the tunnel won’t hold up at night, the plans are changed: they’re leaving tonight instead of tomorrow.

McGrady confronts Michael, and once again, he tells him he’s not going with them, saying he’s protecting him from a life on the run.

Susan threatens Maricruz again, which gets Sucre to spill the beans that Michael’s having second thoughts about who he’s breaking out with, since last time he broke out some mad dog killer types.

Bellick wants to be a team with Mahone, turning on Scofield and being a hero. Mahone’s not real interested in the plan.

Sucre shows up at the prison. Michael needs help with the backup generator. He feeds the information on it back to him (manufacturer, model, and customer service number). By calling customer service, he finds out they’ve got just enough dark to make it out.

Susan wants to meet with Lincoln in person. When he arrives, they call Whistler so Susan can drive home a message to him by torturing Sofia. Scofield warns him that if he gives away the information, which he hasn’t figured out yet, Susan will turn on them. Later on, Whistler does figure out the coordinates and warns Scofield so he can plan accordingly. Michael suggests giving them the wrong coordinates to buy some time.

T-Bag wants to be Mahone’s partner, too, which leads to a response involving the word inbred.

Susan, Lincoln, and Sofia come to the prison to get the coordinates. Whistler gives her part of what she wants, saying he won’t give her the rest until he knows that everybody’s safe. She gives them 24 hours to get her the rest.

Lincoln’s going to have to cut the power from the outside. Michael tells him he’s got his concerns about pretty much everybody, but he just wants it to be over.

Michael has another chat with McGrady, giving him the option whether to stay or leave. He obviously chooses to leave, since nothing good can come from staying either.

Everybody finds out just how much time it’ll take for the backup generator to come on: 30 seconds. Not leaving them a lot of time. With that in mind, T-Bag and Lechero threaten to kill Whistler if they’re not first. Mahone’s not interested in moving ahead in line, though, as he doesn’t want his back to any of these people.

While at the prison, Sucre’s stopped and told that, when they ran his ID, they found out he’s got a warrant out for his arrest.

Lincoln runs a bus into the wires outside the prison, knocking out the power, and that’s where we leave things for next week.

Prison Break Season 3 Episode 10

Posted by Shane on Monday, January 21, 2008 at 7:42 pm


After two months on hiatus, Prison Break Season 3 Episode 9 was the first of five new episodes. General Zavala managed to get Susan’s name out of Michael, along with a location of where she would be. She played along as if Zavala had the upper hand, just long enough to take the opportunity to kill him. Meanwhile, inside Sona, the struggle for power continued. Sammy managed to get ahold of a gun thanks to Sucre unintentionally assisting him, a pretty good advantage to have.

Lechero is afraid Scofield’s a hero now, since he survived the box, or so he says. As such, he refuses Sammy’s request to kill him.

Mahone gets a picture of his son in the mail.

Whistler informs Scofield T-Bag’s coming with them. Mahone wants in, too. Michael may as well just accept they’re all in this together whether they want to be or not. Now that last week’s drama’s done, it’s time to start digging again, at least that’s the plan. Michael says it’ll be two days.

Sammy pulls out his gun and lets Lechero know he’s done. Then he lets everybody else know he’s in charge. When nobody objects, he offers a case of rum for whoever brings him Michael.

Lincoln’s trying to find out what he can about Gary Miller.

T-Bag wants to take Sammy out. He doesn’t want to risk his own neck, but he’s got no problem risking Bellick, asking that he chicken foot Sammy and cheat again like he did last time.

Sofia doesn’t want to turn her back on Whistler, even if she doesn’t exactly trust him. She makes Lincoln give her his word that he’ll be okay.

Sucre goes to meet Susan and tells her Lincoln’s not playing any games. She tells him she believes him, then she gives him a cashier’s check for $25,000, with the other half payable later.

Whistler tells Scofield he was supposed to kill him but didn’t. So now apparently he’s supposed to be grateful.

Bellick approaches Sammy asking for the chicken foot. After he does this, though, he realizes he doesn’t have any acetone left, so it looks like the first plan’s out the window. He pretends he made a mistake and wasn’t actually talking about Sammy, but it doesn’t get him anywhere.

Lincoln and Sofia buy some explosives.

Mahone, Scofield, and Whistler use the distraction of the fight as an excuse to come out from digging. They’re quickly stopped by Sammy’s goons. Their location is no longer secret, but at least they’re able to get back into it, well, two of them anyway. Just as Sammy’s about to kill Bellick, they call for him. They threaten to kill Whistler if he doesn’t help them get through the door. Not at all intimidated, Whistler’s request to Michael is simply to not open the door.

Sucre doesn’t bother telling Lincoln the part about how he’s got cash in his pocket. Susan knows something’s up, and she tells Sucre she knows where he sent the money and that if he doesn’t cooperate, she’ll kill Maricruz.

Sammy and his boys get Lechero and go ask him for the combination. Then Michael opens the door. He offers Sammy a deal to go with them. Sammy agrees but not to the part of going with them. He wants their plans all to himself. Michael wants them to take Whistler with them. Obviously a setup. Sammy pokes his head in the tunnel, which comes crashing down around him. Then Lechero kills his goons with his gun.

Bellick wants in, too, and if not, he’ll blow their cover, so T-Bag accepts. McGrady wants to go with them as well, but Michael tells him he doesn’t want any part of it.

Sofia does some digging and finds a briefcase. As we’ve seen before, the show ends with us wondering what’s inside.

Prison Break Season 3 Episode 9

Posted by Shane on Monday, January 14, 2008 at 7:37 pm


It’s been two months since Prison Break Season 3 Episode 8, but now Prison Break’s back with all new episodes. Previously, Mahone went to court and tried to get a plea deal, but he was a wreck without his pills, so they sent him back to Sona. As he was headed back, we finished up the first half of the season with Michael Scofield being escorted out of the prison, after he prevented the Company from breaking out Whistler on their own.

General Zavala brings Scofield into his office. Scofield says he had nothing to do with what happened, which is true for a change. He doesn’t give any answers as to who actually was responsible. They put him in a box to see if they can sweat the answers out.

Sofia and Lincoln are chatting, and up pulls Susan, to grab Link and tell Sofia to get lost. Susan wants to keep Lincoln motivated. She takes him to LJ and gives them one minute to speak to each other, a brief exchange about how “that bitch is crazy” and the next time they meet, he’ll get him out of this.

Mahone’s back. He says that, all things considered, he probably does deserve to be in there. He doesn’t get any drugs, but Lang does give him her father’s good luck charm.

Out in the yard, Bellick and T-Bag see someone vomit. Bellick’s ordered to clean it up. This doesn’t sit well with him, so he shoves the guy. This won’t end well.

Having accepted money for sneaking something into the prison before, Sucre’s stuck doing it again, this time for no money. When he gets there, Michael asks him to just go and not come back.

Lechero and Whistler are trying to break out on their own. It’s not long before they realize this is stupid and pointless.

Scofield tries to convince Zavala he can’t stop them. Zavala tells the story about how he captured Lechero, someone everybody else thought they couldn’t stop. That’s enough to convince him to talk. He spills the beans, but Zavala’s not buying the truth again.

After Zavala’s done some research, he finds that there’s some truth to the story. He believes the other inmate should be able to corroborate it and demands a name. In return, Michael wants him to locate LJ.

Sofia goes to the prison to confront Whistler about what she saw at the apartment. He claims that it was all his plan for them to be together. She doesn’t know how she can believe anything he says.

Of course, once Zavala brings Whistler back, he says nothing and plays dumb regardless of a claim that the story has been verified and all that’s needed is a name of who’s in charge. With some convincing, he claims that he’s working with Scofield… and only Scofield. They’re both brought into the room to discuss it together, and finally he does give up a name.

T-Bag’s strategy this time is to get Mahone to kill Sammy. In return, he’ll cover his drugs.

Sucre’s had an argument with Lincoln, asking for money to continue helping him. Having overheard this, Susan takes advantage. She offers Sucre $50,000 to go back to him and pretend like nothing happened and to continue working with him for a few days.

Michael calls Lincoln to find out when his next meeting with Susan is. With that, he’s able to find out the location to send Zavala to.

Because of the puke incident, Bellick gets a chicken foot. He approaches Sammy to get some assistance. Of course, he gets nowhere. Lechero overhears this and isn’t happy.

Turns out Sucre and Lincoln’s fight was just staged. They were setting Susan up.

Mahone’s not interested in T-Bag’s offer.

Lincoln’s meeting with Susan, and as planned, the general comes and takes her away.

Susan plays dumb, too. They’re doing a good job of that tonight. So now it’s time to torture her as well. Unlike the men, though, she’s not going to be that easy. Despite the fact that she’s choking, she still won’t talk. Whistler and Scofield come in, and Whistler says yes she ordered the prison escape. She claims to be just the babysitter, that she watches the kid and knows nothing about a breakout. She offers to take them to him.

Michael wants to know if she killed Sara, and she says she doesn’t know what he’s talking about, to which he responds, “I’m coming for you.”

Bellick wins his chicken foot fight, even if he did cheat. T-Bag may have himself a new target.

Susan leads them to where LJ is, or at least where he was. When they get there, she kills Zavala and his guard. She calls for a ride, then her next call is to Lincoln.

It turns out the guy Sucre’s been sneaking packages in for is helping out Sammy. He wants Sammy to take control and thinks Lechero’s days are numbered.

Scofield and Whistler are taken back into the prison, since the general has been found dead. So now it’s back to the original plan: break out of prison.

Unsurprisingly, inside the cigar box is a gun. Now Sammy’s got a way to take power.
