Prison Break: Good Fences

So we found out what was in the box, and yep, kids -- someone had been watching too many Brad Pitt movies and pulled a "Se7en."
Guess it's official: Sarah Wayne Callies will not be returning to "Prison Break." Hell, she couldn't even come by for 20 minutes so they could make a model of her head. Could it have been any more fake? According to TV Guide's Michael Ausiello, it apparently wasn't all due to the former actress-previously-known-as-Sara-Tancredi's new baby.
The real shame is not killing off a major character. Hell, that keeps things spicey. I mean, c'mon -- we're in season three here... but c'mon, Linc. How could you not tell Michael? Maybe you could have baked him a cake and wrote something on it. After all, Sona residents can receive mail.
Scofield is still sweaty. It could be the shirt or the fact that he has a prison break to plan and Whistler keeps hounding him about his stupid bird book.Meanwhile, all is not well in the land of Lechero. There's a blackout. Thankfully, Schofield is an engineer -- and the one that caused it. Would any engineer know how to dig and fix the electricity? I'm no rocket scientist, but apparently Schofield is.
Speaking of not well, Mahone is looking like his same freakish self -- but this week, he's having of hallucinations of Haywire (!). Apparently whatever killed Haywire actually did make him stronger, at least in Mahone's mind. Thankfully T-Bag's new afterschool job as drug dealer is helping turn Mahone back into his same self-confident, psychotic self. How he and Michael will team up and get out of there is beyond me. Maybe Michael will throw Mahone to the now-electrified fences.
Aside from Haywire, we had another great return: Sucre is back from the land of totally-annoying. Thank goodness; I was starting to wish him serious ill will. After finding out about Sara's head, he decided to pull his out of his ass and start helping Linc. He's already got himself a grave-digging gig and has begun the fence hole for the great escape, part two. Welcome back, brother!
A few other thoughts...
• Will Lechero and Basketball Jones be in on the escape? If not, don't waste my time with their characters.
• Who pays Lechero's cell phone bill -- and how does it get paid?
• Michael couldn't take his shirt off, even to dig??
• I think Whistler was fake digging. The guy didn't break a sweat!
• Speaking of Whistler, how is this guy involved with the Company? It can't be as simple as he says.
• Is T-Bag's good arm bionic? I want to see that guy wrestle the one-armed man from "The Fugitive."
• Poor Bellick. That's all I can say about that.
So what will be Schofield's motivation now? Rescue his nephew? Get back at the people who took his love? Get more tattoos? Stay tuned. -- Rachel Cericola
