Goofs

When Michael hands Sucre the note saying ''bolshoi booze'', the b's are capital ''Bolshoi Booze''. In Michael's tattoo the b's are small ''bolshoi booze''. Capital B would make an eight rather than nine (small b), so Sucre's coordinates would be a little different.

Due to the road block, they try to escape through the river, but Sucre's foot is hold under a trunk of a fallen tree and they need to wait the opening of a floodgate of a dam to raise the level of water and release Sucre. Meanwhile Sara is attacked in her home by a killer from the Company that wants to kill her with an OD of morphine, but she manages to escape through the fire ladder. Later she calls Bruce and a woman is mistakenly taken as Sara in the spot where she was supposed to be and executed; Sara discovers that Bruce is also a conspirator. She takes the documents of the victim, Kelli Foster, and deciphers Michael's message in the origami. However, she recalls that she forgot the last letter in her apartment. The Internal Affairs interrogates Mahone in the Chicago Field Office, disclosing his profile of psychopath. Lincoln heads to Arizona to rescue LJ, but the teenager is under watch of Kellerman's men.

In this episode, Sara discovers that her father has not committed suicide and how huge the conspiracy is inclusive with Bruce taking part. Mahone is really a psychopath protected by Kellerman assigned to kill the escapees. The despicable Bellick and Geary are back trying to get into T-Bag's mind.
