Tonight on Prison Break



Michael arranges to meet Christina. It isn't an easy reunion to begin with, then she says something surprising about Lincoln. Meanwhile, Pad Man arrives in Miami with a nonnegotiable demand for his new operatives; Linc races to abort Christina's plan; and T-Bag must prove his trustworthiness to the Company.

S E Here.

This episode totally p'd me off. I wish I could've been an accomplised writer for this show, really! In the beginning, that kiss is so tired. I'm sorry, but it is. The first scene, should've opened with Michael walking in from somewhere. IDK, maybe from a store with some food or something and he's taken aback because he sees Sarah packing up what few things she has. He knows that she's leaving but doesn't understand why, why now. He asks her if everything is okay because he's such a sweet man. Something to the effect of "What's the matter, where are you going?" Sarah doesn't say a word, she just looks at him and gives him a kind smile as she puts her things down for a moment. She walks over to him and gently brushes her hand over his shoulder, down his arm and holds his hand. She gives him a REAL kiss, not the tired one. Michael receives the kiss, but with question. Sarah says, "Michael, come sit down for a moment. There's something you should know." He says, "You're leaving." He holds his head down in self disappointment. With his chin in her hand, she assures him, "Yes, but not because of anything you've done or not done." There's a short moment of silence as she looks at him (with those doe eyes LOL!). He waits for her to speak. "Michael, I cannot do this with you anymore because I can't think about just you and me anymore, I have to think about US, now. Michael, I'm pregnant." Then she leaves his life forever (until the last episode).

That's the way I think it should've gone. Number one, because I WASN'T EXPECTING IT! IMO, Prison Break has always done the unexpected, and I expected Sarah to be stupid and not tell him, so of course, I thought the opposite would happen. Number two, Linc is going to be framed AGAIN?!!! C'mon!!! WTH? You have to to be fraaking kidding me!! I don't know what to think of the show right now. I will continue to watch, but I don't like the direction the show has taken AT ALL!!! :(

I loved your version, SE! It seemed very Michael & Sara-like. I could see her touch his shoulder & arm & I could totally see him with his chin in her hands, eyes closed, taking deep breath as he tried to figure out what her aim was as well as attempt to accept the inevitable! OMG - good job! BUT, we have the other version to deal with :(

You're right, Laila. We've got to deal with it.

I do want to recant some of my earlier statements about the interaction between Michael and Sara/Wentworth and Sarah. I suspect that it's toned down out of respect for Sarah's marriage and maybe even Wentworth's "possible" relationship as well. I'm cool with that. They are grown, serious entertainers and a lot of seasoned actors are toning that down these days. Some married actors have always been that way. I cannot remember a recent time I've seen Denzel or Will all over some co-star.

I know a lot of people say it's strictly professional, they're just acting but it's still physical contact whether a camera is rolling or not. And if I were Wentworth's woman, I'd be VERY okay with that!
