8I watched the first half of season 1 a few episodes at a time. Best way to watch it I think. Then they took a huge break in the middle of season 1 afair. Waiting for each episode for the second half of season 1 was a pain. The way they built up the tension to the finale of season 1 was really great tv. I'd prefer to have some double episodes like they used to even if I had to wait an extra week. 1 hour(~40 minutes if you do it right) is not enough!

6Is that Sucre really gone for good now?
That did seem forced and odd to just end his run in the show that way. I do kind of agree with what he said himself though: there's nothing left for him in it any longer... I'm guessing now the government is not involved either, there's no chance of a pardon anyway and he'd have to live his life in hiding regardless...Where did T-Bag go to after the interrogation at the start?
Doesn't the General tell Linc right at the end that T-Bag, Self and Gretchen are going to be his team in retrieving Scylla from the new player?Was that Lisa the man with Scylla was talking to on the phone?
I thought the exact same thing! I'm pretty sure it is, as I doubt she's just the good obedient daughter...
Yay for Mahone getting away! Not sure what'll happen to him now, but at least it's not going to be rotting away in jail.
Still not 100% on some other things though... so are they now implying the company is good after all and wants to bring peace, love, electric cars and bunnies to everyone or what?
And yes, what the hell is Tombstone II
? So one more and then the break? When is it back after that? Anyone know? 0 -
8Is that Sucre really gone for good now?
Don't think so, I'd say he will save brothers assess somehow againWill Mahone get away, and where will he go?
Most definitely he will get away but then I think he might turn bad again and be after Scylla on his own.Has Lincoln really crossed over to the Company's side?
Don't think so, just temporary resolution, don't think he ever betrays Michael...Where did T-Bag go to after the interrogation at the start?
I'm sure he is around and will disturb again... not once.What is the General's real motives?
I'd say there is some story behind him, I'd say something to do with his family, etc.Was that Lisa the man with Scylla was talking to on the phone?
I'm almost sure of it. There was too evident cross with her 'daddy' after he shot dead one of his fellowes, just too evident to leave it alone. She is not innocent and good daughter
What the hell is Tombstone II?
Has to be some 'company' operational files record, something to do with brother's mother... I would not be surprised if she is alive and has something to do with current plot.0 -

8My girlfriend said it was Lisa on the phone too.
Lincoln is the ultimate junk yard dog.
Could be the mother, she has to be alive. After the General said one person had survived the op before.Also there was a woman who lived in the house with him and who helped Mahone escape.. I have a funny feeling she is connected with the brothers. Not basing this on anything I read, just a hunch.0 -

6Great episode. PB has truly redeemed itself from the less than stellar third season. The vision/dream sequences were really well done, and the BARGAIN revelation was very clever (although a bit convenient that Michael knew what it meant). I'm afraid that after next weeks Episode 16, we'll be drip fed the last 6 episodes over the first 5 months of 2009. Painful.
I agree that for the most part this series has redeemed itself in a way I wish heroes would. It's been fairly solid and you can pretty much justify everything that has gone on. The one point that had me thinking was poor before I really thought about it was self telling his boss about the plan before the double cross. Took me a while to figure that self knew that homeland would prefer to kill the brothers and bury the situation rather than go public, which was rather convenient for self The attempted burial of the project didn't seem like they were part of selfs plan.
The one thing that has annoyed me, so much so that I gave the ep a 7, has been the convenience of the new plot devices. Michaels tumour affecting him while he was running with scylla (i know he was under mental and physical stress at the time but it still seemed a bit too convenient in order to further the plot) and especially the BARGAIN thing. It was a word overheard from a huddled group from meters away, and that was the only actual reference to the word. It essentially popped up out of nowhere and wasn't even hinted at.
So now we know that the company is protecting the future. Does that make them good or bad? Why does Michael still want to take them down? The general said that the other patient had lived a long and happy life. Not living. So has the mother died since? What's in tombstome II? That did sound like lisa on the phone but I'm not 100%.
Long shot but say for arguments sake that the general IS the father of one/both of the brothers out of an affair with the mother. Maybe her husband finds out that they're not his and starts his war against the general/company, with the intention of involving the brothers, ironically turning the generals own children against him. It could be a real 'Luke, I am your father' moment
[edit]
seems like I'm not the only one looking to see if there's any truth to BARGAIN 0 -

It was dropped into the water when they were on the boat and caught by the Chinese agent. After it went under, no-on seemed to care or go back after it. It's probably all soggy and deteriorated now, so it's probably useless to them.
That was always something that really annoyed me about the end of season two. The 5 million was a loose end that was never really tied up.0 -
8Maybe Kellerman found it and will come back at the very last episode guns a blazin' and free everyone then get killed (again) himself, leaving the brothers and Sara to pocket the money and go off to Panama to live happy ever after with Sofia and LJ. (Until Linc trips on a kerb stone, smacks his head off the ground and dies, rendering the entire show obsolete). 0
