Quotes:

Michael Scofield: [pointing a gun at Henry] I just want my brother's life back. I want people to know the truth. I'd give anything for that. I'd lay down my life.
Warden Henry Pope: Well that's easy for you to say standing on that side of the gun.
[Michael puts the gun on the kitchen counter and turns it over pointing towards himself]
Michael Scofield: What if I'm standing on this side?
Michael Scofield: I'm not the man you think I am.
Warden Henry Pope: Well I have a pretty good idea of who you are, Michael.
Michael Scofield: If that's true then you already know I never wanted to be in Fox River. I never wanted to meet you, Henry. I certainly didn't want to ruin your life.

Bad Karma

Sara and Michael fail in the Corona de Oro, and Michael discovers that Pope is a member of the cigar club. They pay a visit to Pope's home and Michael makes a deal to turn himself in to force Pope to get whatever is in the safe. Meanwhile Mahone is chasing C-Note in Hennepin County, while the doctor refuses to attend Dede and tells C-Note that the hospital is not a homeless shelter. Mahone let C-note escape because of his daughter; however when Dede's kidney is too sick and needs a dialysis, C-Note calls Mahone and makes a deal. T-Bag arrives in his sprayed and depleted house in Alabama with the intention of raising a family with Susan and recalls how he was abused by his father However, when Susan tells that she is not capable of loving him, he locks Susan, Zack and Gracey in the basement and anonymously reports the hostage situation to the police. In Mexico, Sucre stops in the middle of nowhere twenty minutes far from the airport and gets a ride with a security guard of the airport. Later he is identified and he escapes with Maricruz. Lincoln and Kellerman are watching Pope from the top of a building and Kellerman promises to drag many people in the black hole he is in. When Bill Kim holds Pope, the escapees take an attitude.

I do not understand why Kellerman did not shoot Bill Kim when he has a chance. The desperate situation of C-Note is heartbreaking, but when he promises to turn Michael in, I lost my empathy for this character. T-Bag is a fruit of the bad blood of his family and his karma is very sad. Mahone shows compassion for the first time. Now I am anxious to know the content of the pen drive that Pope brought from the safe. My vote is nine.
