So Abruzzi finds God and dies because of it – are we supposed to read into that?

It looks like the group is down to seven, but Scofield has to solve two problems before the gang can break out: 1) arrange for an alternate getaway plan now that Abruzzi is not in the fold and 2) somehow get his brother out of the trouble he’ll no doubt be in after cold cocking a guard. What was that, anyway? Is punching a guy the only way to stall him? How about “How are your kids, Bob?” or “Who does your nails?” Hell, instead of hitting the guy he could have hit on the guy and it would have created fewer problems.

Just watched this week’s “Prison Break,” and I have to say, Veronica Donovan may go down as the most inconsistently dumb TV character of the year. Last week, after creatively evading the feds’ wire tap, she logs on to her IM, giving away her location to Scary Bald Guy. This week, after being tied up by SBG, she manages to heat up her plastic restraints on the furnace, freeing herself in the process. She hits SBG with a chair and instead of killing him, she runs off to free her nephew and friend. Of course, when SBG wakes up, the chase continues. Here’s a rule that should be followed by TV characters henceforth: It’s OK to kill people that are trying to kill you. Even if they are unconscious, and you think they might kill you when they wake up. Just go ahead and finish them!

I just got over the fact that the Department of Corrections allows death row inmates to work unsupervised “PI” detail. Now “Prison Break” wants me to believe that an otherwise crafty Veronica is going to have her IM service up and running while she’s hiding out in a cabin in the woods. This is the same woman who had the foresight to give her nephew bogus directions (at the same time sending the correct directions via a text message) when she suspected that the Secret Service baddies were listening in on the conversation. Now she logs onto IM and gives away her location? Come on.
