New PB Scoop

Here's the latest from Kristin of E! Online.

The two-hour series finale of Prison Break airs Friday, May 15 on Fox, but we just got a copy of the episode and couldn't hold our excitement. A certain mystery guest is making a very important appearance in the finale, so important, everyone's lives depend on it.

Said guest may not have been a fan favorite at the time, but fans sure love this person now. By promise of death, we cannot tell you who returns. But suffice it to say that you'll be shocked because this person has been pretty dead for a while now.

This mystery person is not the only familiar face who returns though. Rockmond Dunbar, Amaury Nolasco and Danay Garcia also come back, along with a new FBI agent named Chris Franco, played by über-creepy Ethan Rom of Lost (aka William Mapother).


Now, we know what you're thinking: Tell us who the mystery person is! Sorry, we can't. But there are more important things happening in the finale you should be wondering about. Like, say, will Michael Scofield (Wentworth Miller) survive?

That is the one question we can't possibly answer because that would take all the heartbreak fun out of the finale! Here are 10 things we can tease though:

* Someone takes a bullet to the chest.
* Someone has a very new girlfriend.
* A man dies.
* A woman dies.
* Two women are held hostage.
* Someone ends up a vegetable, and we're not talking about the yummy, delicious kind.
* Someone goes back to Fox River State Penitentiary.
* Someone ends up in the electric chair.
* Two nemeses have very similar fates.
* Sarah is very dangerous with a gun (see above).

There will be more teases coming in Monday's Spoiler Chat, but for now, it's time for you to put your thinking caps on and hit the comments with your guesses on who the mystery person is and which characters are a part of the 10 teases.

Also, a reader posed this question: Do you know anything about how things will turn out for Michael and Sara?
We'll be answering all your burning Prison Break Q's later this week after we get a peek at the finale. But for now, don't freak out. We've got your back, and we know that the writers do too. Everything is gonna be OK!

Finale News

“We’re doing a little bit of a wrinkle in time, because the end of episode 22 is the end of the journey for these guys, and we do a flash-forward to see where everybody is four years from now. It was a surprising reaction for me. It was an emotional reaction, because you realize the investment in the characters. You also realize how much they’ve been through and, in a way, how noble they are for continuing to fight, So when you see where they are - good and bad and bittersweet - down the road, it’s pretty powerful.”

2-hour Season Finale

Fox announced today that it will air the series finale of Prison Break on May 15 (8-10 p.m.). According to a Fox spokesperson, the drama's two-hour send-off features "two major deaths" and the return of four familiar faces. Prison Break, which is currently in its fourth season, returns to the schedule with a final run of episodes starting April 17.

Now I'm not sure if this 2 hour season finale will actually be the final two regular season episodes or the independent 2 hours that we've been wondering about. I'm still going through all the news so if this is the two hour "movie", I'll come back & update this post later!
