I’m not exactly sure how it happened, but C-Note and Sucre found out where the gang was digging and crashed their little party. When C-Note met up with Sucre on the highway, he held up a map (from Westmoreland?), presumably leading to where the money was buried, but it’s not clear how that gets him past the problem of finding the Double K. I guess he and Sucre could have spotted Tweener as they were driving around, but how did they find the subdivision?
Anyway, Mahone is hot on the gang’s trail and he used some actual detective work to find out where they were headed. I liked the re-interview of the witness and his little math equation to figure out the radius of the circle in which Westmoreland’s money could be buried.
I actually felt kind of bad for T-Bag. The woman was really spreading it on thick and had to know that he’d be a bit pissed off about playing second fiddle to the “big guy.” But it looked like he kept his temper in check, at least until that cop arrived at the house. I’m not sure why the gang went through the elaborate ruse of convincing her to let them dig up her garage when they could have just tied her up like they did the storeowner. Of course, had they done that, there wouldn’t be a cop coming to the house, providing the necessary cliffhanger at the end of the episode.
I think Tweener could get quite the deal from Mahone right now. He really isn’t a dangerous criminal – after all, it was a baseball card that landed him in prison. He could tell Mahone where the gang is and maybe get immunity for his previous crimes. But it looks like Mahone wants to scare it out of him before backup arrives – I wonder if he’ll sing like he did in prison.
It’s good to see the Governor giving the heads up to Sara. Will they put the pinch on Agent Evil? I’m also curious to hear what else her father knows about him. AE seems to be having trouble dealing with his new lot in life, now that the VP is the President. Her assistant really seems to have a hard-on for AE.
And then there’s Haywire. There was no way that he was going to hurt that poor woman. I’m guessing his current mission is to get to Holland as soon as possible. Can you imagine how he’d react in Amsterdam? With all those people speaking Dutch or German, the miles of canals, the Red Light District…his head would explode.
