Juoni lyhykäisesti:
Juoni pitempänä: vain englanninkielisenä
We're treated to a flashback right off the bat: Michael's getting his tattoo and we zoom in on the words: English Fitz Percy.
Then we catch up with the Pope having a meeting with sneaky Kellerman and nervous Hale. They want to know why Pope blocked their transfer request. The Pope blathers on about state and federal something, his responsibility and blah blah blah. So Kellerman turns to his trusty ally: blackmail. He's much more successful in blackmailing the Pope than he was with the bishop. Anyhoo, Kellerman threatens to spill the Pope's Toledo Secret if he doesn't transfer Michael. Pope says his wife already knows about Toledo (ie-an affair), but Kellerman wonders if she knows everything. He gives Pope a file which contains photos of a dead young man.
And we're outside with Michael, doing a little PI. He proceeds to assemble the Great Escapees in the Garden Shed of Doom and informs Abruzzi that Linc and Sucre will be joining them during the escape. Abruzzi ain't having any of it, he's not working with the "crazy rhino" that is Linc. Sounds funny coming from a mob boss who has no trouble separating toes from their owners' bodies. Anyway, Linc gets in Abruzzi's face and warns him to never touch his brother again. Abruzzi's all, "Brother?" Michael speeds things along and brings up English, Fitz and Percy. He says they need to "take one of them out" and needs their help in getting to them. Both Abruzzi and Sucre think Michael's off his rocker (where's the team spirit, guys?). Michael calmly says he needs five minutes and he reiterates his need for their help.
Michael returns to his cell to find the Pope waiting. Pope informs Michael of the transfer so Michael pulls the brother card. He asks for three weeks, but the Pope says he's not the one behind the transfer request.
Michael joins Linc in chapel and tells him he plans on doing a test-run through his cell wall. Linc calls him on the transfer business, but Michael brushes him off, saying he'll take care of it. Michael-confidence is one thing, denial is another matter entirely.
On the outside, Nick and Veronica check out the tape and find some inconsistencies, so Nick decides to enlist the aid of an AV guy he knows.
Back inside, at lunch, Abruzzi asks Michael about the transfer (word sure travels fast, doesn't it?). Michael, still cruising on through Denialand, changes the subject to English, Fitz and Percy. He reminds Abruzzi that the Pope leaves at 5:00 and he'll need the key shortly thereafter. In keeping with the theme of their relationship, Abruzzi warns Michael that the key better be worth it, or else.
Michael then joins Westmoreland and asks how he can block his transfer. Westmoreland tells him the simplest way is to draft a petition, claiming health reasons, religious beliefs or something along those lines. As long as something might interfere with an inmate's constitutional rights, the courts have to hear the motion and an inmate can't be transferred while they're waiting for their motion to be heard. I should mention that Michael smiles a little in this scene. In fact, I think he smiled more in this one episode than in the previous episodes combined.
Dr. Tancredi hears the news that Linc and Michael are brothers.
Pope gets Michael's petition.
Back in their cell, Michael tells Sucre he's doing a test-run. Sucre points out that it's daytime and everyone can see into their cell. So Michael suggests Sucre do a little laundry (they string up a makeshift line from the wall to the bunks, blocking the back wall from view). Sucre doesn't like the plan: "Just to be clear, I ain't touching your drawers." (Oh, Sucre, if forum posts are any indication, you're definitely in the minority on that one).
Meanwhile, out in the yard, Nameless Abruzzi Thug attacks a guard and tries to get a key. Abruzzi, various inmates and several guards get in on the action. Abruzzi manages to make an impression of the key.
So Michael's taking a little walk through the prison walls. Every so often he checks his tattoo for directions. He goes up a couple levels and finally stops at a hatch. He even cracks a smile (again!). Then he's nearly caught by a maintenance worker taking a smoke break. Michael manages to hide in the pipes directly above said worker. Note that he's oh so very sweaty here. Anyway, he makes it back to his cell where Sucre comes down on him for causing him too much stress (Dude, you're in prison, planning a break-out, it's stressful). Michael calms his cellie down by saying he found his way to the roof.
In Abruzzi's cell, Cellie Abruzzi Thug is melting down the plastic handle of a brush and pouring it into the key's mold. The plastic hardens and voila!-they have their very own key! That was pretty smart.
Nick and Veronica (are they still on this show?) meet with AV Guy who says he can't find visual evidence of tampering. But, he does point out the absence of a gunshot echo. That means the gunshot was not recorded in the parking garage.
He won't testify to that without seeing the original surveillance tape.
Michael's working on the mini Taj and Pope tells him to wrap it up, it's almost 5:00. Michael says he can't let go of the Taj's floor or else the entire thing will collapse. He even throws in some structural engineering speak, so Pope says Michael can stay until the glue's dry. Check in with Becky (Pope's secretary) and there's a guard outside the door who'll escort him to his cell. So Pope leaves, Michael peeks out the door and hears Horny Guard hitting on Becky, which Michael finds amusing (smile!). He closes the door, goes to the door on the other side of the office, finds it locked so he...waits.
Pope returns home to find Kellerman the Snake and Hale waiting for him.
Abruzzi comes through and unlocks the office door with the homemade key. Michael joins the line of inmates filing by on the way back to their cells.
Back to the Pope's house. Pope explains Michael's petition so Kellerman whips out his blackmail card once again. Seems the boy from the photos was Pope's illegitimate son. Kellerman suggests to Pope that he lose Michael's petition, which the Pope does.
As soon as Michael returns to his cell, he tells Sucre he's heading out again, but he's taking the back door. Sucre poo-poos this, saying count is in fifteen minutes. Michael says the less Sucre knows, the better, and he heads out.
And we've rejoined the Nick and Veronica show. They're trying to get the surveillance tape from evidence, but they find that a pipe burst, flooding the evidence room and destroying several case files, including theirs. Only that evidence room was flooded though: coinky-dink.
Time for 6:00 count and Michael's getting a little fresh air up on the roof. Bellick checks the empty cell and, barely containing his glee, shouts, "We got a runner!" Sirens sound, scent dogs are let loose and the other inmates go nuts. Horny Guard radios in and tells Bellick that Michael's in the warden's office. Bellick's response: "Stop trying to nail the secretary and check the damn office!" (Hee!) So Horny Guard glances in, and oops!-Michael's missing.
Throughout all of this, Michael's hanging on the roof. Police cruisers come screaming down the street and Michael just calmly checks his watch. It's here where we finally find out what English, Fitz and Percy are. They're streets (avenues actually). Three separate avenues leading to and from the prison. Ahhh-so Michael's checking out the response time on each avenue. Police are a no-show on Fitz, so Fitz it is! That earlier conversation in the Garden Shed of Doom makes so much more sense now, at first I thought they were talking about killing someone, a snitch maybe.
The Pope shows up at his office, along with Bellick, and lo and behold, there's Michael! He's squatting behind the table, still pretending to hold up the mini Taj. He's all, "What's going on?" In response, Bellick grabs him and throws him against a wall. Michael plays innocent, but Pope says he's not their responsibility anymore since he's transferring tomorrow. Michael doesn't take the news too well, in fact he kind of loses it. The guards have to restrain him and haul him from the office while he begs the Pope for more time.
Again back to Nick and Veronica. They return to her place to find it's been broken into and their copy of the tape is missing, but nothing else has been touched. It's unclear if Veronica's expression here is saying, "Oh crap! They've got me bugged!" Or, "Oh crap! This handsome, crusading attorney is one of them!" I guess we have to wait until next week to find out.
The next morning, Michael's sitting on his bunk looking all lost and dejected (but oh so sexy-let me hold you!). Sucre doesn't want to say goodbye and Michael tells him in a hollow voice that it would've been Fitz. Seems as if he's almost in shock here. Sucre heads out and Michael puts the bolt under Sucre's pillow and leaves an origami bird for his cellie (aww).
As Michael's being led from the prison, in schackles, we overhear Abruzzi tell Nameless Abruzzi Thug to call Abruzzi's wife and tell her to get the kids and get out of the country. As Michael's about to leave the grounds, the Pope shows up and says he can't be transferred, his petition precludes it. Michael looks as if he's about to cry and he's afraid to believe what he's hearing. Before he's led back to the prison he notices a couple of shifty-looking men in their car, watching him. Their presence isn't lost on the Pope either. So he heads home to tell his wife all about his dead illegitimate son.
And we're back to Patricia Wettig, refrigerator covered with Kindergarten Art. She's not too happy with the turn of events so she tells the agents to take out Linc.
Lainattua:
Bellick: I could kill you and the paperwork wouldn't need much more than the date.
Pope: I'm impressed. Not even a week in here and you're already working it like an old con.
Michael: Don't believe everything you hear. I'm not going anywhere.
Bellick: Stop trying to nail the secretary and check the damn office.
Bellick: We got a runner!
