Time to share your thoughts on Episode 4.03!
I liked this episode – almost more than the first two, probably because there wasn’t as much information flying at me. I enjoyed the chase scene, and actually really liked the MiSa reunion this time around. It felt more genuine, although I was wondering if she was really going to walk away and just leave Michael to go to jail!

So I’m worried that they are going to link Michaels genious abilities to a brain tumor…remember john travolta in phenomenom(sp?) he had a brain tumor and all of a sudden was really brilliant.
He had the nose bleed, and then the head pain in the tunnel : ( So i dunno, hopefully they are just caused by stress???
I just have a sinking feeling that when this season ends Michael might be doing some kind of sacrifice to save his loved ones…which is perfect with his character but really sad : (
Also I teared up when Linc gave Mahone his word to help him find the ones responsible for killing his son : ( I think that asshole who is killing people needs to go back to grey’s anatomy dammit!

I think Michael is some type of human experiment. Pad Man mentioned how they try it on animals then a cadaver, Michael will be the human experiment.

I agree that it is not in Michael’s character to be extremely angry for such a long period of time like he was in the ENTIRE conversation with Self in the beginning. I don’t care what Self says, he knew damn well that there were 6 cards, and Michael knew this. Just like in S3 with whistler, Michael NEVER trusted him at all, and Michael does not trust Self either. It was extremely noble of Sucre to text RUN to Michael when he and Bellick got caught. It gave them those extra few seconds to get on the run. I love the way Lincoln pushes Roland around too, hehe. And the moment at the end with Mahone and Lincoln, it was truely an emotional site to see. Lincoln being able to look past his vendetta and reach out to Mahone, it touched my heart to see that. And you better believe that Mahone and Wyatt are gonna have a little Chat.. !!!!EXCITING!!!!
Michael, again with the headpains. It happened when he was in the middle of thinking hard. The stress of everybody counting on him and relying on him for so long is finally starting to get to him. Nobody in real life could deal with the stress that he does, and especially not someone with low latent inhibition. His mind soaks up everything, and I believe that his brain is being overloaded with emotion, stress, and constantly having to figure out ways to get himself and others out of these impossible situations. It’s not fair.

I believe that the Company is attempting to assume control of the flow of oil for the entire world.. everything he said, pertaining to the cadaver speech, was about small countries that eventually will lead to bigger countries.

I thought this episode was a nice change of pace for Michael and Lincoln. It was great to see sides of them that we haven’t seen before with Michael yelling at Self in the begining and Lincoln with Mahone. I also teared up a little when Sucre was talking about his baby girl although in the first and second season, it was supposed to be a boy. It was a great episode over all, but for whatever reason it didn’t match the excitement of the premiere episodes for me.

Also Erin, that’s a great guess with the tumor. I was also thinking cancer, but my guess was that it could be lukemia. He definitly has a lot of stress to deal with though, so it could be just that or maybe ptsd? I mean he was willing to shoot Gretchen in the head for Sara. That’s pretty traumatic. We’ll just have to wait and see.

I liked it, parts of it reminded me of other season. Like when Sara let herslef get arrested so Michael could run…S2. Also the funniest line Sara said, hell I use to be dead…so funny. I also think Roland is funny, he called sara Dr. Feelgood….some 80s humor

I think ep. 3 was the best so far!!
It reminded me somehow S1 where Michael finds out things and makes plans!
I was really disappointed of Sara. She didn’t even wait to see what we’ll happen to Michael. She went to the warehouse to pack her stuff without saying a word. If Michael had come a minute later she’d have been already gone.
I felt sorry for him when he saw her getting out of the warehouse holding her stuff.
I felt more sorry when he went to her having that sad look on his face. I don’t know how to explain it… She was about to leave him. I felt like he was begging her to stay by saying the things about the boat (although I hope and I wish this will happen one day; maybe at the last episode!)

Sara was getting out of the warehouse because she was forced to. The mission was aborted, the boys were going to prison, the warehouse was going to be closed by Self. Sara had to leave.
Also she knew Michael had run e she probably was packing her stuff to leave to go after him.
She was not leaving Michael.

Yeah but I didn’t like the fact that she was so cool and calm while she was leaving. Moreover she looked suprised when she saw Michael again. She could have called him or something just to make us understand she wasn’t goint to leave like this.
I hope she really wasn’t leaving Michael!

Sara his not in herself.
Sara is suffering from post-traumatic stress because she was a hostage that was tortured.
That is the reason why she seems not to have emotions.
We`ll see her change with time, I hope.
And I hope Michael will help her to accomplished that. Also she must help Michael to do the same achievement.

Interesting idea about Michael being that experiment (comment from JEH)…quite possible. You know this is just one of those shows where it just doesn’t seem possible that all our favorites are going to come out alive. : (
Sara was prob surprised that he showed up she was prob expecting him to leave and run and then contact her when it was safe??
Also Nikki I’m curious(kinda) at the peoples reaction to sara being back. I know there were a lot of people hating on the idea of saras death being faked and her coming back..so i’m kinda curious to how they feel about the situation after seeing a few episodes…
GO OBAMA…sorry just had to throw it out there hehe
