I enjoyed this episode. I'm glad the rest of the guys found out about Mahone's son & this has forged a kinda strange bond between him & Linc.

Michael is still getting dizzy spells I hope we get some clues about that sooner rather than later.

All in all a good episode

Remember, getting the cards is only one part of the puzzle. They then have to get the encoder to read them. Should stretch it right out until the end of the season !!

shinny

No, I don't mean copying it. The cards are all encrypted so they need to figure out how to decode it. That's part of it too. So the gadget the new guy has only copies it, but it copies encrpyted data !!

That's what the book was for, the one T-bag has. It has the details of where this decoder is. It must be in that building he's in now (T-bag)

Got a chance to catch up on this episode too. Yeh, I'm glad to see Gretchen back too. And she has a daughter, who thinks she's her Auntie. You can see why she asked her sister to take care of her though.

I felt so sorry for Mahone. He really wanted to hurt Wyatt but what could he do at that point. That will be some good showdown.

All in all the show is starting to pick up. Gretchen & T-bag are going to have to join forces here. I bet that guy who's hassling T-bag gets the brunt of Gretchen at some point !!

shinny

Yeh I get that, but I find it hard to believe that the company didn't have pictures etc of the rest of the Fox inmates. Besides, it was all over the paper when T-Bag went to jail. I agree with Spratt, a little unbelievable !!!

I enjoyed this episode but it's put them almost back to square one. They are going to move Scylla ! So it doesn't matter if they get/copy the general's card, now they have to find Scylla which was the one thing they knew they had (it's location) !! We've just gone about 5 steps backwards ! I felt sorry for Roland at the end and it shows us that, even through all of this, Michael hasn't lost his caring ability. I think that was nice. Roland did get what he deserved for betraying the others, but I still felt sorry for him. Wow, they have Wyatt now and when Gretchen finds out, well there will be sparks !!

Sneak Peak of episode 9 (won't be aired until Nov 3rd)

shinny

It's 4 minutes long, so lots of spoilers. Beware, don't watch if you don't want to know !!

shinny

I just feel like the show is going nowhere. It's like we've gone full circle and are back to square one, but this time around I don't care.

I think the writing has gotten very lazy on it. When you compare this to say Heroes, it pales alongside of it.

shinny

We really are going around in circles here. So now Lincoln is at the helm. I wouldn't hold out too much hope so!

I felt sorry for Alex too. I hope they are not getting rid of him out of the show.

T-bag should have known not to trust a man that was able to recite the same psalm as his father !!!

shinny

Is this the point where they are turning the episode as to lead into a new season? I'd be all for a 5th season if I really thought it would make the show end well. However, if it's more of the same I just wish they'd end it now and end it well.

When did Lincoln become such a thug? I know he was always hard headed, but he was still ultimately a good person underneath it all. Now he just seems like a silly thug.

I liked the "spiritual" visit with Charles (DB) - It was a bit odd alright, but it made the show a little more interesting !!

shinny

Who knows? All I know is that they all signed up for 6 seasons, per their contracts !! I know that doesn't mean there will be six, but even if the actors don't want it to go any further or they don't have much choice!

shinny

Yeh, it would be good to go out on a high rather than letting it drag on and on and on !

shinny

Just watched the episode. I think Christine wants to take Lincoln out of play, not kill him, but for his own good. I bet he gets shot in the shoulder or something like that !!

It's good to have this back, but I think it is right that it's ending this season. Perhaps we'll get it wrapped up well !!

shinny

So Michael has to chose between his Sarah and Lincoln ! Will he find some way around this or will one of them die?

I've been thinking about the story Christine told Michael about how Lincoln came to be in their family. She said their father brought him home after his parents had been killed. I'm wondering though, maybe he is also Lincolns father, so they would be half brothers. It would explain why Christine is so hostile to him. Raising your husbands love child

shinny

You've been watching too much heroes. I think you mean scylla !!

shinny

Am I the only one who has been left feeling really cheated with this ending?? How incredibly sad. Everyone else gets a happy ending (except the bad characters!!) but the man who made it all possible dies? And pretty soon after by the date on the headstone. Looks like he didn't even get to meet his son.

Maybe we'll get some answers in the DVD episodes.

7/10 for me. All seemed a bit rushed and manic towards the end.

shinny

Yep, we'll get to see the "DVD Episodes" which is being billed as a movie on Sky One.

Quote:

On 27 May, Sky1 will premiere "The Final Break", and that two-hour special will reveal what happened in that missing four year period. US audiences will have to wait until 21 July for "The Final Break" on DVD/Blu-ray, as it won't be screened on television.

I don't agree. The reason he did what he did was for his brother and then later on Sarah. That had all been resolved. They were exonerated so nothing else needed to be done. Besides, when he found out he was going to be a Father, that was a huge thing for Michael. I think they could have just let him live out his life with Sarah and Michael Junior.

shinny

I do understand why he died though. I'm guessing that the general took out some insurance on Michael by only staving off the tumor, not fixing it completely. If Michael had come to work for him then he would have removed the tumor fully.
So basically he died because of his principles. I'm guessing.

shinny

But when you say "They" who do you mean? The General was about to be fried. Christina is dead there is nobody to come after him and why would they now? The UN has scylla. If this magic "they" were going to go after anyone it would be Kellerman or the guy from the UN. It could have wrapped up nicely then but they had to add in the little extra piece about the tumor. Besides, are there no other doctors in the world besides the Company Doctors!?

What bala, afraid of a little debate??? You're taking the easy way out. You can't just say that's what I think and not argue why you think it

Too many holes in my opinion.
