The acclaimed prison escape drama’s second season continues. In tonight’s episode, Michael, Lincoln, T-Bag and Tweener arrive in the Utah town where Westmoreland’s millions are hidden, but finding the ranch where the money is buried proves more difficult than anticipated. Meanwhile, Sucre goes to Las Vegas to get his girl back, C-Note takes drastic action to evade capture, and the single-minded Kellerman continues to close in on an unwitting Sara.
With Abruzzi shot down in the last episode, the remaining escapees are heading west – to Utah and fortune in the form of Westmoreland’s buried loot. When Michael and Lincoln make it to the small Utah town of Toolele, they are confident of finding the ‘Double K’ ranch, which Westmoreland identified as the hiding place of the $5 million. “All we gotta do is get that money and we’ll be out of here by nightfall,” insists Michael.
When it transpires that the Double K ranch doesn’t appear to exist, Michael refuses to entertain the notion that the dying Westmoreland used his last breaths to lie to him, and heads for the municipal building to check the town’s public records. Unfortunately, the map to the property owned by a Karl Kokosing is missing – and its thief appears to be the shifty-looking T-Bag currently exiting the building.
After catching up with him, the brothers learn that Tweener has also made it to Toolele – and has the map. Bearing in mind that this is T-Bag speaking, Michael and Lincoln lock him in the car boot while they go off to locate Tweener. They rescue him from a beating at the hands of a hardware store owner – only to discover that T-Bag was lying. Back at the car, the smirking felon announces that he has eaten the map and committed it to memory. “I’d have tattooed it on my body,” he drawls sarcastically. “But I didn’t have the time.” He continues: “As of this moment, I’m your map.” Repellent as the thought may be, it looks like joining forces with TBag is going to be the only way to find the cash.
While his former cohorts try to find the money, Sucre is on a quest of his own. Having discovered that his former girlfriend Maricruz, who is pregnant with his baby, is all set to marry his slimy cousin Hector, the desperate con is heading for Las Vegas to stop the wedding and get his girl back. He manages to get to the wedding chapel in time, but is thwarted when not Maricruz but the smug Hector greets him – and approaching sirens are heard. Has Sucre let his heart lead him into trouble?
Back in Chicago, Agent Mahone is piecing together the information retrieved from Michael’s hard drive. It’s not long before he connects the newspaper clipping about notorious hijacker DB Cooper – AKA Charles Westmoreland – and the fact that the escapees are heading west. “The money’s in Utah,” he informs his team. “And they’re all going to get it.” With this in mind, Mahone decides that there’s only one thing for it: to join them...
Also this week, C-Note’s journey to Utah is interrupted when he is forced to make a dramatic exit from his train; and Sara continues to be targeted by the smooth-talking, chameleonic Agent Kellerman. With Nick Severinn and Veronica already dead, is Sara going to be the next victim of the shadowy conspiracy that framed Lincoln in the first place?
