Come and get it. -- Michael Scofield
So Self is a scumbag. We know this. Michael and his crew know this. T-Bag and Gretchen know this. Even The Company knows this.
As part of his plan to sell Scylla, he lures Gretchen into helping him secure another buyer. How? All he had to do was take her sister and daughter hostage. Apparently that is her one and only weak spot. Gretchen's new buyer (or conduit) is Viken. She takes off with Self and the two leave T-Bag behind to baby-sit. Maybe they haven't heard, but T-Bag isn't so great with families.
It's too bad that she was tied up. She was supposed to meet up with the boys. Instead, they had a reunion with the Feds. In the mad dash, Linc jumped out of his car to save Michael and pummel a passing Fed. He's a sweet guy, but not too smart. So he was the first one to get pinched. This was actually a good thing because that big lug convinced the Feds that Self isn't the hero after all. In fact, he isn't even Self -- or won't be. He's planning to change his identity to Robert Walker when all is said and Scylla is sold.
However, that's not going to be so easy. See, that little Lego piece that Michael has been holding up to the light? It was a piece of Scylla that he removed, rendering the entire thing useless. Pretty sweet.
The General didn't get too much screen time this week. He is under a lot of stress, which makes him as scary as ever. If you're interested in his upcoming plans, that info could cost you a hole in the chest. Think of it as a Company severance package.
Also, Mahone is missing. Of course, he didn't take off to find Pam. Judging by next week's previews, he's tapping an old friend to help bring this whole thing to an end -- or at least a fall finale. See you all next week. -- Rachel Cericola
