I was wondering why Sucre decided to hop out of the El Camino instead of just putting it in drive to beat the train to the intersection and ditch the cop. But once he reached his friend’s place, it all made sense. Call me disloyal, but if my convict buddy tells me he’s been up for 72 hours straight and he wants to take my vintage motorcycle for a blistering non-stop roadtrip to Vegas, I’m saying, “Heeeeeeeell no! Go steal a car.” Had Sucre driven the El Camino to his buddy’s place, he’d already have transportation, and we wouldn’t get the image of him (which is no doubt forthcoming) making cross-country tracks on a vintage ride to break up his girlfriend’s wedding. Now all he has to do is hook up with the the Flying Elvises (Utah chapter) and he’ll be good to go.
By the way, how exactly did Sucre avoid the repeated glances of the motorcycle cop as he exited the car? That cop was watching him like a hawk.
We found out that Agent Mahone has some demons of his own – namely, a prisoner that’s still on the loose. He’s so obsessed with this cat that he’s resorted to popping pills on the sly. And here I thought he was cool, calm and collected.
I like Bellick’s new role as a bounty hunter, but I’m not sure I like the other guard as his sidekick. I suppose Bellick needs someone to act as a placeholder in conversations as he says his wicked lines, and I doubt anyone else would go with him. Here’s an idea: the writers should have given him a dog to talk to – maybe a big Rottweiler named “Eddie”. Now that would be cool.
C-Note made contact with his family and says that he has “a plan” to get some money. Surely, he’s referring to the millions buried in Utah, but does he have any idea where it is? Anyway, his wife turned the front porch light on, inferring she trusts him, but at the same time she was talking to an FBI agent. Is she going to give him up?
And how about poor Sara Tancredi? Of all the characters on the show, I feel most protective of her troubled soul. She feels betrayed by Michael, but he has promised a reunion, and now Agent Evil is tracking her. How creepy was it when he showed up in her support meeting? Agent Evil is hoping to get a line on Michael and Lincoln, and figures Sara is his best bet. But it’s a pretty big gamble to think that Michael actually cared enough about Sara to risk capture just to “make things right.” He had no idea how deeply their relationship went.
Everyone is making their slow marches West, where Terrence Steadman is holed up in Montana, where Sucre’s girlfriend is getting married in Vegas, and most importantly, where the money is buried beneath a silo in Utah.
