Come and get it

Warning: Spoilers
"Deal or no deal" features the aftermath of Self's betrayal. We find out that not only did he double-cross them, he makes Stanton believe that the team has killed him and seized Scylla. Woo that cold Self so cold! The team is force to work with Gretchen to find Self but she is made to betray them as Self and Bagwell holds Rita and Emily hostage. And that's kinda ironic as Gretchen is known for taking hostage and threatening people's loved ones inorder to get what she wants ( which rarely happens). I can't remember the last time she gets something done, the writers never gives a Gretchen a chance, she does something and it always never pulls through. Anyhow, The team is attacked by DHS agents and Burrows is captured. Burrows manages to convince Stanton and Dallow of the truth. They offer a new deal for the team to testify against Self. But Stanton and Dallow have other things in mind; to get rid of the brothers so that the whole thing won't blow back at their faces and ruin their lives. A shootout is ensued and at this point there's nothing to worry about as our protagonists have 9 lives. A bullet dares not to get in their way. They go into gun fight, they come out clean without a scratch. They get caught up in a tricky and seemingly inescapable scenarios, worry not! Something is coming to save them out of nowhere. Anyways, The Company mole kills Stanton and other agents before Sucre "conveniently" arrives and saves them with the mole being killed. This episode ends with Self realizing that part of Scylla is missing which leads to my favorite line of the episode by Michael "Come and get it"

Come and Get It

Please read only after watching the episode

Self calls Herb and tells that Lincoln has killed Miriam and simulates that he was also shot by Lincoln. The disturbed General Krantz recalls Michael's words; during a meeting with the board of The Company, he is questioned by Howard Scuderi and he unexpectedly kills him and asks if there were any further questions from the other participants. Lisa is shocked with the attitude of her father. Herb calls Michael believing that Lincoln has killed two federal agents. Self brings T-Bag seeking out Gretchen. Michael faints in the toilet, Lincoln helps him and Sara injects a drug and tells that he can not have any physical stress for eight hours. Lincoln calls Gretchen and tells that Self has double-crossed them and stolen Scylla. They schedule a meeting at the Grand Hope Park in one hour; however Gretchen's sister Rita calls her with Self pointing his gun to her head. Meanwhile, Special Agent Richard Sooter comes for investigating the case. Gretchen arrives at her sister's house and Self forces her to call the National Security and tell where Michael and his group are. Lincoln is arrested in the park, but the rest of the group escapes. Self forces Gretchen to contact a buyer (actually a conduit) called Viking, since there are only five potential buyers in the world. T-Bag stays with Rita and Emily, while Gretchen and Self go to a meeting with Viking. Meanwhile the truth about Self is disclosed through a deleted file in the name of Robert Walker, and Senator Conrad Dallow apologizes to Lincoln. He calls Michael and the group and the senator promises full immunity if they agree to testify against Self. Michael asks Mahone, Sara and Sucre to travel out of Los Angeles and he goes to a meeting with Herb and the senator. However, Herb and Senator Dallow discusses about the consequences of the unauthorized operation, meaning at least fifteen years in prison, and they decide to eliminate all the evidences of the operation. However, Michael and Lincoln are saved by Agent Sooter that kills Herb but discloses that he works for The Company, and brings the brothers to "an appointment with the General". However, Sucre appears out of the blue and saves Michael and Lincoln that kills Sooter, but let Senator Dallow go. The Senator leaves all the documents and tells that the operation has never happened. Meanwhile Self and Gretchen meets with Viking, but he tells that there is one piece missing in Scylla that Michael has secretly withdrawn. Self calls Michael that invites him to come and get it.

When I saw "Selfless", I believed "Prison Break" had reached its climax. However, this sequel is spectacular, with many almost impossible twists and surprising situations. It is impressive how people are double-crossed in this series. Mahone mentions that he has a friend in FBI (I believe he is referring to Agent Lang) and he disappears. In my opinion, he traveled to meet Agent Lang, who also helped him when he was addicted with the picture of his son. The alternatives of any deal with Michael and his friends to clear their names are narrowing with the death of Herb, the negative of Senator Dallow and the betrayal of Self. I guess that the fates of T-Bag and Self are in the hands of the evil Gretchen. Let's anxiously wait for the next Monday to see if Self will come to get the missing piece with Michael! My vote is ten.

Title (Brazil): Not Available
