Episode 4.10: The Legend

Recap
Thanks to David G. for his recap:
The last time we left off our heroes, Brad Bellick gave his life for the team. It was sad.
So Michael and Don held a secret meeting with Gretchen. The last time we left her off, it looked like she was back to no good joining up with her boyfriend, the General. But now, she told them that Scylla was being moved. So is she a double agent? If so, why not tell the guys about joining the company again?
At the warehouse, more hidden clues are showing up in the pages of the bird book. Letters, the first three letters found were C, M, and E, obviously spelling out, “See me.” Michael gathered more letters and spelled out the name “David Baker.” Which is who needed to be contacted. So they began to google him.
At Gate, T-Bag’s secretary handed him Gretchens fingerprints and background info. She explained that she was clean, that there were no mentions of anyone on the team, including Whistler. T-Bag went wide-eyed when he heard her say Whistlers name. She tried to cover herself by saying Michael said it once, but T-Bag knew better. His boss then stopped him, asking him to present to a group, using his legendary sales record techniques.
At the warehouse, Michael’s condition returned. He didn’t bleed from the nose, nor did he get shaky and confused, he simply fainted. So Dr. Sara had to rush him to the hospital, hopefully to tell us all whats wrong with him. He had a quick cat scan, and the doctors asked him to wait for the results, Michael wanted to leave, but Sara asked him to stay. His safety was her only concern. When the police showed up, Michael decided it was time to go, and asked the doctor to call them with results.
Mahone was the one to visit David Baker. Apparently, David Baker was a ‘Vincent Price’ impersonator, did anyone hear his voice? Anyways, Mahone was there to ask him for help. He said he worked for the company, but David Baker quickly figured out the truth, as agents from the Company began to surround the building. Mahone had to leave, but before he got away, Baker’s wife slipped him some information on Scylla.
At Gate, Lincoln and Sucre were trying to figure out what to do next when Sucre accidentally stepped on a explosive trigger, if he moves just a tiny inch, a giant boulder would drop from above, and they would have to run away from it with an incredible adventure score…or blow up. Lincoln told Sucre to hold on as he got Gretchen to help. She said she would have to manually de-trigger the bomb.
Back at headquarters, Michael and Mahone were looking at the information Baker’s wife gave him, and realized the land mine was also a trigger for an alarm. So in a flash of lightning, Mahone got from headquarters to Gate, and told Gretchen to stop what she was doing. Then found a manual overdrive to turn off the trigger for twenty seconds. My question was, why didn’t Linc think of that, there was a box on the wall, and no one thought to see what it was? Anyways, after a bit of crying, Sucre stepped off the bomb, and he was fine.
T-Bag, back at Gate, took a look at his secretary’s file. He called a number in the file, which was answered by Don Self. Earlier in the episode, we learned she worked with Homeland Security, hopefully we will learn more about this in the weeks ahead.
Back at the warehouse, the team takes a moment of silence to say goodbye to Bellick, just before he is shipped to his mother for burial. Sucre made the phone call to his mother, as promised. Sara told Michael she got the call from his doctor. He has a tumor, and needs to have surgery right away. Michael explained he needed two days, but Sara told him it had to be one, or he runs the risk of dying.
I loved the Michael and Sara scenes as well. Esspecially when she said she had to say shes his wife, they are so cute, very real compared to other shows. I read on the E-News website that the surprise/twist for Sara in episode 15 is going to maybe involve a pregnancy?? I wonder how that would play out. And then Sara has the risk of losing Michael and he doesnt know shes pregnant or something. Hmm… Anyways I cant wait for the next episode, I hope Michael will be okay.
lol thats ok
why does sucre start babbling in spanish i think hes losing it too he needs an mri
yeah the misa scenes were very touching this week. i like how sara took charge at the beginning. i liked how she was very supportive and acting optimistic for michael with her smiles and reassurances. i liked how she told him she said she was his wife. i thought that her being firm with him and making him wait (before the cops came) was very cute. it’s just too bad that they finally get some time just the two of them (in a manner of speaking) and they spend it bored out of their skulls waiting around in a hospital. i look forward to what this surgery will mean for michael and sara but at the same time saras going to get scared of losing him and then behaving distant again – shes been doing that it seems this season (cant blame her, i know she loves him but i can also understand why she needs to be a bit guarded when it comes to him). but then…matt olmstead said that their relationship is going to start to accelerate. maybe going through all of this will help them both to realize they have to make use of the time they have because who knows when they’re going to go. ok ive babbled on long enough.
shes beautiful and funny.
misa scene was really touching it shows how sara loves him.
btw was tbag acting about belick? is he not tbag anymore?
after watching it again – i have to say i love jlok. she stole the show for me. she just so funny in this episode “i lose a face!”. and that scene with trishanne and self = sooooooo lame! she goes to see him to complain and then he offers to do something about it and shes like no im fine. i kinda liked her better when i thought she was just a selfish little you know what, working with t-bag.
This blog is great..
Beautiful episode..it’s getting better..it’s hard wait for the next week..
It actually looked like Tbag was sad about Belleck.
It was a good episode. Can’t wait for next week though!
hehe ..
Matt works at G.A.T.E. ..
hehe ..
yes Sara is warm
and cute she pretended shes his wife
matt olmstead was in the meeting where Tbag was telling the story in Gate? is it him?
loved the michael/sara interaction in this ep. and i noticed matt olmstead too! thought his cameo was great. gretchen had some great lines, as did t-bag and that trishanne chick is working with self? interesting…
hey what about gretchen and linc ?
is she the reason why mike and linc will fight over?
its a beautiful episode
This guy with glasses in the office with T-Bag was Matt Olmstead.
What an awesome episode!!!!!!!!! The Best!!!!!
Who says they are canceling it in May???? Last I heard they were getting picked up again. Did anyone notice Matt Olmstead was in this episode , he was in the conference room with tbag as he was giving his speech!
Please tell me where u heard that it was getting cancellled????
Michael will pull off the “Ocean’s Eleven” heist of Scylla even though he runs the risk of dying, it wouldn’t be Prison Break if it was that easy..
I like how they plan to get over the pressure-sensative floor by using a suspended ‘cat-walk’ to reach Scylla. I don’t understand though, if there are atmospheric censors to detect and change in temperature or humidity, how the hell is he going to be able to breathe in there if it will set off the alarm??
Anyways, I’m sure it’s going to be the best episode yet to come, It just sucks now because we’re ‘over-the-hump’ now after this next episode.. Grrrrrrrr!!! then they’re going to cancel it in May… So sad..
