Not everyone makes it out alive
Well, that might be the end ofPrison Break.
But yet, here we are.
I would say, “Who cares?”

Did I love thisPrison Break?
Am I glad it exists?
This isn’t an all-time Mount Rushmore series likeLostorThe Sopranos.
So if they want to make a nonsensical limited series every few years, then count me in.
“Behind the Eyes” picks up six minutes prior to that bloody conclusion.
“You’re too busy trying to be the smartest man in the room,” says Sara.
“And then you met my husband and you realized he’s smarter than you.”
Then, Van Gogh joins the party, making things even more awkward.
This prompts Jacob to slap Sarah.
I mean, as if we didn’t already hate this guy enough, am I right?
Van Gogh looks shaken.
We then catch up to where we left off in “Progeny.”
He’s trying to convince her that they need to be sure they have the right guy.
“We get this done the right way,” he contends.
“Emily, is it really even a choice?”
His pleas for them to disappear together fall on deaf ears.
“No… because there’s no leaving 21 Void,” she declares as she shoots her partner.
Unfortunately, it isn’t all good news since MJ never made it to Uncle Lincoln.
Instead, he’s scooped up by Jacob, which causes Sara to rightfully freak out.
Moments later, Sara and Michael find a bloody Lincoln, which causes us to rightfully freak out.
Little brother doesn’t want to hear it, replying, “You didn’t let me down.
You got me home.”
Speaking of sons, new acquaintances Whip and T-Bag are having a nice father/son bonding trip.
Things are predictably a little weird.
Whip wants some fatherly advice on “dealing with a father that’s… Well, it might not be fatherly advice, but T-Bag does correct his son’s mispronunciation of progeny.
The teaching has already begun!
Next thing we know, it will be time for lessons on how to get someone tohold your pocket.
He did so because Poseidon wouldn’t be monitoring his communication with people he despised.
“Give it to me straight, how you really feel about me?”
cracks T-Bag, causing Whip to smirk.
Awww, he loves his new daddy.
“Someone has to make him let go,” Michael tells T-Bag.
“Do you understand?”
Oh, we all understand, and we sign off on it.
If Trey Songz is"Mr.
Steal Your Girl,“then Jacob is officially “Mr.
Steal Your Son.”
After telling his stepson that Sara is dead, he begins working his sleazy game on the kid.
“Why are they trying to hurt me?”
cries MJ, to which Jacob responds, “It’s because I love you.”
Excuse me while I throw up.
Jacob reveals his secret spy career to the boy, even showing him the not-so-secret lair.
And with perfect timing, Michael calls and sounds pissed.
“He’s not your son and he never was,” declares Michael.
Oh, he heard, you confused son of a genius!
Jacob sure liked that response.
But T-Bag wasn’t a big fan.
“A man like that… you’re right he deserves to die,” proclaims the one-armed convict.
Whip, who has grown quite attached to his dad of one day, doesn’t like the idea.
“I want you free and clear,” argues T-Bag.
Scofield ain’t gonna do it, he don’t got the killing gene.”
Not a bad gene to miss out on.
Theroux is currently pulling double duty, trying to decode Michael’s new tats and tracking his phone.
Theroux then gets to the bottom of job No.
Right at that moment, a scary and creepy owl turns and looks Jacob dead in the eyes.
Quick flashback to Michael telling Jacob, “It’s what’s behind the eyes that counts.”
Best tattoo use yet.
Once in the room, Michael calls Jacob to tell him he’s got the incriminating hard drives.
They agree to meet tomorrow for an exchange.
But it isn’t a lost trip, since she overhears that Van Gogh is upstairs on life support.
She goes to talk to him, and he’s in pretty bad shape.
Probably R.I.P., Van Gogh.
You may have had a corny name and killed Kellerman, but you grew on me a bit.
We finally catch up with Lincoln.
Where was he in such a rush to go?
Maybe see if LJ is still alive somewhere?
Nope; he heads back to Luca’s warehouse.
Upon Luca’s refusal, the real police show up and take him away.
Lincoln manages to sneak away.
The bonding continues for Whip and T-Bag as they discuss the Bible and killing.
You know, classic father/son stuff.
“But for the most part, killing is just bad.
“T-Bag’s Life Lessons: coming soon to bookshelves near you.
His poetic knowledge continues: “I just don’t want you to get the wrong idea about me.
Murder the dark so the light can be born.”
Man, this guy is on fire today.
Their orders from Michael have led them to Blue Hawaii.
You know, classic Elvis stuff.
Before everything goes down, the teams meets up one last time.
You gave me a family.”
And right on cue, in walks Lincoln.
It’s go time!
The action shifts to the University of Ithaca, where Theroux is looking after MJ.
Jacob must be pretty desperate if this guy is now his No.
They grab MJ and get out of there.
Meanwhile, Jacob and Michael have finally come face to face.
In a warehouse, they are talking in circles about game theory and other nerdy stuff.
Just say what you mean!
“Ain’t that right, pop?”
As T-Bag holds his boy, Jacob makes Michael take him to the hard drives.
T-Bag goes back to his dying son.
“I’m glad I got to see your face,” Whip utters with his last breath.
T-Bag smiles and whispers, “Go easy, son.”
Whip dies and T-Bag is arrested, again.
Jacob catches up enough to shoot Michael in the back.
Blue Hawaii to the rescue!
“You’re better than I thought,” says Jacob.
The duo engage in an impressive fight, especially for two brainiacs.
Mike is working Jacob over bad, punching him in the face nonstop.
“This is for the last seven years,” he declares.
The FBI quickly ends the party, though, and Michael is loaded into a police car.
It’s revealed that when he was in Jacob’s office, Michael planted the blood from the jar.
Always Has a Plan strikes again!
Luckily, Theroux cracked and confessed to everything.
“It means you’re free to go, Mr. Scofield,” says the G-Man.
It’s finally time to kick back and relax.
“It’s strange… being alive again,” shares Michael.
“Not running.”
As Lincoln goes to join the others, the brothers share an “I love you.”
No, you’re the one crying!
Surely at Michael’s request, Jacob is the newest inmate at the prison.
He’s smiling, telling a guard that he’s not planning on staying long.
After sitting down on his bed, his new cellmate jumps down to introduce himself.
AND IT’S T-BAG!!!!!
Jacob isn’t smiling anymore!
He’s actually screaming as T-Bag grabs him and the fellow prisoners get riled up.
What did you think?
Did you enjoy this round ofPrison Break?
Do you hope to see more?
