Michael made a deal with the devil in Prison Break Season 4 Episode 8, agreeing to bring T-Bag and Gretchen in with him. Roland, meanwhile, sold them out in a failed attempt to make some quick cash.
Lincoln is trying to force Wyatt into pretending he killed them, but Wyatt doesn’t break. They’ll more likely knock him unconscious than get him to talk.
The general believes that Scylla needs to be moved to a location they don’t know about, since that’s the most secure location. He wants to make sure that they can’t walk down the streets of LA without people noticing them. Because that worked so well for the Fox River boys.
Self has a new idea. He sends Sara in to be good cop and talk to Wyatt. Wyatt’s not afraid of death, though. While they stay behind and try to get something out of Wyatt, the rest of them have a partially formed plan how to proceed, which stops halfway until they get the rest of the pages from Gretchen.
T-Bag’s boss plans to look into the so-called resignation he received. Gretchen tells him not to worry because they’ll never find the body.
Mahone’s not quite as patient as Sara and Self are. He wants revenge right away. Self promises him that when the time is right he won’t stand in his way.
Heading through the tunnel, they hear a noise that they don’t know what it is. What they do know is that they’re probably right underneath the company’s headquarters. So the logical course of action is to proceed toward that unknown noise and right at the enemy. It turns out the noise they heard is a conduit pipe to the LA water supply, which means 30,000 gallons of water are rushing through there every second. They want to dig, but the cement just leads to granite. There’s no way under or over the pipe, but perhaps they can go through it.
Wyatt’s done just enough talking for Self to be able to scramble the words into exactly what they need. Now that that’s over with, Mahone gets some one-on-one time with Wyatt.
Just as the general believes everything’s all done, Gretchen shows up ready for target practice. The general dismisses everybody else from his office, and he’s unconcerned about Gretchen or the weapon she’s brandishing.
Michael tells them about the manual override to shut down the water. He figures the city will respond in about an hour, giving them 60 minutes to do 90 minutes of work. As he’s getting ready to start, Michael collapses.
The general keeps on talking until he gets Gretchen to hand over her gun, then he tells her she’s his girl, and then kisses her, whatever that’s about.
Mahone doesn’t want his time with Wyatt to go by quickly. He’s sadistic enough to know just the right way to torture people, and he’ll use this knowledge to his advantage.
Scofield’s on the sidelines for the time being, but Sucre’s got his back. Michael instructs him on how to take his place and continue the work of getting through to the other side.
Mahone has just one favor to ask of Wyatt, after which he will stop torturing him. He gets him to call his wife and apologize. Once that’s done, he puts a cement block on his arms, takes him to the water, and gives him a shove.
T-Bag decides to turn Andrew Blauner’s (his now dead co-worker) own plot against him. He gets his own sales records and pretends they’re Andrew’s, point out all the irregularities, and suggests he must have been money laundering. He tells his boss that they don’t want any investigations since it will mean IRS backlash, so he tells him to tell the detective investigating the matter a story about irregularities in his expenses to explain his disappearance.
Two of the guys have to grab the beam so that they can guide it through the conduit. Bellick and Lincoln are the lucky two volunteers. When the water starts rushing back and they think all is lost, Bellick isn’t ready to just give up. Brad hops down and grabs the broken beam, lifting it up. The only way for him to do this is to trap himself inside in the process. He’s okay with this, and just as the beam is secured in place, he sees the water come rushing at him.
The general is informed that Scylla can be moved right away, and he likes the idea because, despite the fact that he thinks Scofield and Burrows are dead, he doesn’t like that they came as close as they did.
