Goofs:

Factual errors: When Lechero's cronies take Bellick into Lechero's "cell", one of the guys tell him that the match on the television is one from the world cup. But this is not possible as teams at the world cup wear uni-colored jerseys (a notable exception being Croatia), but never the striped ones as we see the players in the match wearing. The match is clearly one from the Brazilian league.

Quotes:

Alexander Mahone: Why do you need a pen?
Michael Scofield: Some documents that need altering. I'll explain to you later. Right now I need that pen, okay?
Alexander Mahone: Okay.
Michael Scofield: And I'll tell you what else I need. I need you to get your act together. I need you to bring yourself under control because you're attracting attention and that, we don't need.
Alexander Mahone: I'm under control.
Michael Scofield: Of course you are.

The Box and the Gravedigger

Lincoln finds the content of the dreadful box left by Susan but he does not tell Michael during his daily visit. Michael asks Lincoln to contact the gravedigger, and he meets with the bitch Susan that tells him that they are just soldiers from different armies. Michael distracts the paranoid Mahone, who is having hallucinations, asking him to get a black pen to forge some documents, and borrows the crucifix from McGrady. When there is a failure in the power supply to Sona, Luchero asks Michael to fix it. Luchero calls the colonel and Michael and he go to the no man's land between the prison and the fence to work. Meanwhile Sofia visits Whistler and she presses him to disclose the break-out plan; then she seeks out Lincoln and tells him that she wants to help him. Lincoln tells the fate of Sara to Sofia and Sucre and then he schedules a meeting with Sona's gravedigger, who asks US$ 15,000.00 to help Michael. Bellick tries to approach to Michael and then he betrays him telling Lechero that Michael is plotting to escape from Sona. T-Bag kills Lechero's drug dealer Nieves and he is invited by Lechero to work for him distributing drugs in Sona. T-Bag gives heroin to Mahone.

In "Good Fences", the impressive fate of Sara is disclosed to Lincoln and I confess that I did not expect such violent twist in the story. Mahone has lost for his addiction and now he is consuming heroin. Michael lures Lechero and now he can count with Sucre's support. Bellick is probably the most despicable character of this series and T-Bag is indeed a deranged cold blood killer. Just as a curiosity, the soccer game between Fluminense versus Grêmio showed in Lechero's television happened in 1996, the year that the player Mauro Galvão played in Grêmio. My vote is nine.
