    Couldn't wait until tonight, had to watch it on my lunch-break.
    This ep really tugged at the old heart-strings.
    God damn you Mahone,I hate you!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,854 ✭✭✭Sinfonia


    mah gawd whats gonna happen

    can't wait to see
    the killing box
    sounds like a great episode (based on the name alone)

    Thought is was only an ok episode. 7 overall.

    I completely forgot about Bellick's voice message on Geary's phone. Never suspected that he would be charged for the murder.

    Overall nothing too amazing was added to the plot. Kellerman getting creased on his chest was a brilliant scene and Bellick really acted his little heart out in this one while being interograted.

    Should be interesting to see if Sucrue gets shot down from the skies.

    I don't think Mahone is going to shoot the boys. Does he know that Sara has the tape..or at least something linking her to some form of evedience? Is so then i'm sure he will try to lure her out.

    Does Lincon have a gun as well or did they ever get it back from their father?

    But why? He is a fantastic character. He is only doing his job, and a great job he is doing at it so far. I think he's a bit of a hero.

    I couldn't give two ****s if he kills Micheal or Lincon...as long as he doesn't get TBag i'm a happy camper.

    lol rollo he is not doing his job. His job is to be an FBI agent and catch them. Rather he is being blackmailed into murdering all of them,not really his job :D Great character thought,and great actor,he has added a lot to the show.

    Good episode this one,we know Mahone won't kill them,but it will be interesting to see what happenens.

    Will Sucre get shot down?Lets hope not.

    Bellick was funny with his pretend crying,and of course he got arrested for the murder,I saw that coming when they showed his phone call in the "previously" part. Stupid hick Southern cops ;):D

    And the dad died...I think they killed him off too fast. It wouldnt have been a good idea for him to be tagging along with Linc and Mike but they could have had him go off on his own again.

    Where is Haywire? If they can't find anything to do with him they should make a good episode where Mahone kills him off.

    That iron in the chest looked nasty,ah Kellerman,getting what you deserve. A bit stupid though to be honest. He was right hand man to the president (formally vp) for years and then suddenly this other bloke is the go between.

    8/10

    "FBI! Out, out, OUT!"
    Ah Mahone, you crazy cat.

    I enjoyed this episode a good bit. Kellerman's looking in a fair bit of trouble now (that iron burn looked suitably nasty). Wonder how that's going to be sorted out.
    Michael and Link's father dying, didn't really feel too much sympathy here; he was a disposable character. The fact that he had saved Michael when he was a kid struck me as something thrown in there to show he was a good guy. Still though, seems to have shaken Link and Michael into action!

    Also; Bellick got his comeuppance!

    Should be a good ep next. Interesting to see how the hell Sucre's gonna get out of his predicament, and Link and Mick out of theirs.

    that's what I kinda meant about his job. I should have probably said misson.

    "A bit of a hero" How d'you work that one out?
    Let's see, he killed Tweener in cold blood, killed Mike's pop,tried to kill Sarah, and in his past offed a guy and buried him in his back garden!
    Mahone is clearly the bad guy in this season, although not as bad as smiling Oriental guy and ironing-board Kellerman.
    I agree that Fichtner is an excellent actor though.
    Mikey probably hates Mahone with a passion now that he's killed his Dad.
    I wouldn't be surprised if he ends up offing him himself, if he gets the chance.
    He really screwed up by letting that Mexican con live.
    Sarah must have set a world record for holding your breath under water though!

    What a hero!

    I think we're going to see Kellerman make an attempt to reconcile with Sara now that he is being frozzen out by his cronies. Should be interesting to see what happens to his character (another one of my heros btw)

    Another great episode... and the penultimate episode of the fantastic fall season.

    Kudos to DeadParrot for getting the "Sara would pull the plughole out with her teeth" - the daft bitch jumping out the window. I think all her scenes this week had a bit of a "ouch!" effect on me. The crash into the windscreen, her stitching up that massive gash in her arm and worst of all, the trusty iron to the chest... christ, that looked painful! :eek:

    Didn't like the decision to kill off Mike and Linc's Dad so soon.. he may have been disposable and i know it sounds a bit contrived but it's something "Lost" would do.. introduce a new character and throw some interesting plot devices / twists in their way before killing them off.

    Car crash moment was bloomin' fantastic though.. Mahone's one crazy ésé (is that how you spell it? :confused:).

    I'm with Rollo.. as far as bad guys go, Alex "Bang-That-Bulletin-Board" Mahone and Agent Paul "I-Love-Sarah-I-Hate-Sarah" Kellerman are two of the best out there.

    Bellick's in deep doodie now.. T-Bag set him up beautifully and we were all wondering what that piece of paper he found in the bag and was holding last week was... now we know! I can image the torture awaiting T-Bag if he comes face-to-face with Brad again. Bellick could be facing jail time.. and in Fox River - that'd be classic! :D

    The C-Note stuff was all a bit expendable.. but it's been a couple of weeks since we last checked in with him so it was somewhat required.

    Can't wait for next week.. the last one til the end of January though! :(

    8 / 10


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,764 ✭✭✭DeadParrot


    yes I have amazing powers :D
    Bellick in the $hits alright, maybe there might be some loving for him though in the future with
    yer wan.
    I dont know wft C-Note is gonna do, obv gonna get the medicine for the daughter in the trash, but will he give himself up so the missus can go free, which will in turn lead to him being killed by mahone, which in turn will shine a light on him as he gave himself up and then "was shot resisting"

    I think I missed the bit where Mahone figures out Michael isnt on the plane


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,854 ✭✭✭Sinfonia

    Michael and Linc get out of the car at the side of the road and see the fighter plane going by, then Mahone's car appears, driving towards them...then Mahone sees them!

    Anyone expect to hear the terminator drum beats when Mahone walked slowmotion over the ridge? Heh... he looked like Arnie in T2. :)

    Looking forward to next week now. :)

    I thought it was a alright episode but i was slightly annoyed that Sarah is alive and survived because i mean he is a expert assassin he would not leave a victim half drowned in a both tub you hold them there until they are dead then you take out your bag and saw, and what a crap saw as well does he have any idea how long he would be working on her for?

    Sarah defiantly should have died more than once at this stage

    you could really say that about a lot of the characters at this stage though, i mean people like Kellerman and Mahone surely have a lot of long range shooting practice, however they always seem to miss at the right times...

    Did anyone notice what was on the TV in Kellerman's motel room while Sarah was drowning in the bath?
    A fishing show!Heh-heh.

    What's the significance of that?

    dont think theres a significance. Just that with one u kill em by taking em out of water and the other you kill by putting em in water?

    Well it was obviously a little in-joke by the writers.

    I was watching that scene and wondering how anyone could be under water for that long with their mouth open and still have it together enough to pull the chain and survive.
    Not possible!

    Still,
    great episode.
    The only downside was the fact we saw nothing of T-Bag.
    Seriously, we should get at least a couple of minutes of him in each episode!!

    Well Sarah was drowning in a bath full of water and fish can only survive in water.

    B-K-DzR referred to it earlier:

    Even though he said there wasn't any significance in it, I think it was a little joke by the writers.
    Ah, who cares anyway!


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 2,764 ✭✭✭DeadParrot


    àlso they were talking about lures and bait and whatnot
    Sarah = Bait?

    Lures, well there is the obvious connection to the supposed nitro Michael was trying to palm off.
    Actually I wonder did Mahone kill yer man in the hospital.

    Really must rewatch that ep

    I thought there was something fishy about Sara getting out of the bath like that. Ka-Dish!

    Wait a minute...is Sara a mermaid? Interesting...i like where season 2 is going.

    Worst episode of the show so far. It was sooooo bad I don't think I'll bother ro watch next week. Too many plot holes and clichés to go into so I'll just go for this one. How can they arrest Bellick for the murder when he has an iron clad alibi? When he and Roy parted ways Brad was left unconsious until the ambulance picked him up and he was in the hospital until they brought Brads body in. The message was left on Roy's phone when Brad was still in the hospital wasn't it? The writers are just coming up with any old crap to just keep churning out the shows.
