Previously on Prison Break:

When we you planning on telling me that your mother was behind all this?

You have today. One day.

When Burrows brings Scylla back to us...

...you will be the one to put a b*llet in his brain.

Naveen Banerjee?

The son of Prime Minister Nandu Banerjee.

Soon this will all be behind us.

-Maybe I could meet my grandson. -Where's Lincoln?

There's an energy conference at the Panda Bay Hotel. He'll be there.

Christina's plan. What she needed to profit from Scylla.

An incident that'll domino into global warfare.

No!

Rented in Linc's name. Look at this.

It's a setup.

His hands were all over the shells.

Lincoln's back where he started. Too bad about Michael.

We gotta go. Come on.

We need a doctor here.

We need a doctor!

-Somebody call 911, get a doctor. -There they are.

-They're up there, they're up there! -Everybody upstairs, move it.

-Look, just blend into the crowd. -No, we can't go that way.

Door's locked, Michael.

Stand back.

Let's go, let's go.

Get those people back.

Down the stairwell! Go, go, go!

Clear.

They went that way.

Down here. Move.

God, this whole thing is falling apart.

Is it? Is it really?

Do you think this is funny?

How long before the General sees this on the news?

If we can't get Scylla, how long before he comes after us?

And then he comes after our families. Yeah, it's really funny, isn't it?

Michael, where are you?

In the hotel. Is there a way to get out without being seen?

There's cops and feds all over the place. Did you get Scylla?

No. Some guy got assassinated.

-And guess who got set up for it. -We need Scylla.

Scylla is gone. The only thing I care about right now is getting out of here.

Where are you gonna go?

With the Company breathing down our back again.

-Scofield, it's Don. -What do you want?

-To try to fix this. -How? By stabbing us at the back again?

Put Alex on.

He's a little preoccupied right now.

You wanna be mad at me, be mad after we get Scylla back.

Listen, take the southwest loading dock. It's a large industrial door.

It's not conducive to a quick exit. They only have one cop on it.

If you get to the door, I can incapacitate the cop.

We're on the other side of the hotel. They've got the ground floor covered.

What else can you see?

Nothing, just a cop, a couple of dumpsters...

...some jack pallets and some laundry bins.

That must mean the onsite laundry's on the other side, near the door.

If we get to the laundry, we can get to the door.

You said we can't make it across the hotel.

We can get access to the roof.

Hotels use rooftop ventilation...

...80 the guests don't smell the laundry fumes.

Take the ventilation system to the laundry room.

If you get to the laundry room, you can get right by the door.

Put me on speaker.

Alex, you wanna get the Company off our backs?

Go to 4 Dunn Place.

Sara's holding my mother there. Make her tell us where Scylla is...

...and clear our names in all this.

Mahone, you do whatever you gotta do to get her to talk.

Do you hear me? Do whatever you gotta do.

Got it.

Come on.

It is complete mayhem at the Panda Bay Hotel...

...where Naveen Banerjee, son of India's prime minister has been assassinated.

There have been unconfirmed reports...

...Identifying the assailants as Lincoln Burrows...

...suspected of murdering Terrence Steadman...

-...and Michael Scofield-- -Christina sandbagged all of us!

It is believed they're still in the building.

If the brothers are caught...

...we have no control over what they might say to the authorities.

Get down to that hotel and make sure they don't have that opportunity.

I'd be more than willing to take on that assignment, and I assure you...

...will dispatch of it efficiently.

This is not an Alabama co*n hunt, Teddy.

Don't judge me by actions taken when there's been a g*n to my head.

I ran an entire prison g*ng syndicate.

Hardened felons called me "mister."

I'm so much more than a snitch.

And if you continue to treat me as such, it will be your loss, General, not mine.

Son, I have the fate of a multitrillion-dollar enterprise...

...in my hands...

...and you want me to let you earn your stripes now?

Take care of the brothers.

This should be it.

Perfect.

S.AR. should be here shortly.

I want you guys on full alert. Get all geared up, all right?

It's them. Stop!

They could be on any floor. Can you override the door locks?

They're electronic. We control everything.

I want every room in this hotel locked down now.

-Why don't we just take the stairs? -Because we'll set off the fire alarm.

The ducts and the crawlspaces above these top-floor rooms...

...that's how we get our roof access.

Once we find the laundry vent, we take that down to the loading dock.

That should do it.

What's going on?

They locked us out. We can't get to the roof.

-Let's head back down. -There'll be cops.

We can't go up, we can't go down.

We're trapped.

There's been a new development in the Panda Bay assassination.

An anonymous source has provided Fox with documents...

...showing a wire transfer from Chinese operatives...

...To Burrows and Scofield.

The fallout from this from a geopolitical standpoint is staggering.

Relations between China and India--

Nandu reached out.

He wants to meet with you. This couldn't have worked out better.

Nice side of bull in the Chinese document.

Thank you.

Now we just watch the dominoes begin to fall.

I just wish they weren't falling on Michael.

Christina, you gave him options.

He made his choice, he picked his side.

Yes, but he is my son.

One must wonder if all progress will be lost...

My only son.

Right now, it is believed both Burrows and Scofield...

...are still in the hotel, but it appears police are closing in.

Live just outside the Panda Bay Hotel, I'm Jane Yamamoto, Fox News.

No, no, no, you see, that's the problem, there's cops everywhere.

It's like a freaking cop anthill.

It's just a matter of time till they find you.

Find out what their plan of att*ck is.

Sure, you know what?

I'll just go up and ask them, all right? They look like a real friendly bunch.

Look, we don't have much time, so get it done now!

Burrows and Scofield could be armed.

-So I don't want a lot of sh**ting. -This guy's from Homeland Security.

I'll file my report as soon as I've apprehended the sh**t.

Whoa, let me be clear here, captain.

The sh**ting wasn't your typical...

...gangbanger public-service k*lling you're used to in Miami.

This was an international assassination with ramifications...

...that affect the security of this country.

So if you turn your back on me again...

...I'll jam you up for hindering a federal investigation, you understand?

Fine, but I want you on my hip.

I'm not gonna have you playing warrior So you can go back to your buddies...

...and tell them you saw some gunplay.

Not a problem.

Tell me how you're gonna diffuse the situation.

Gas them out floor by floor until we find them.

Hold on there. If you use gas, you're gonna compromise visibility.

I can't afford another diplomat getting sh*t in the fez.

We're using chloropropane. It's colorless, it's odorless.

They won't even know what hit them.

Listen, I want two men in the east stairwell with the gas.

Two at the base of west stairwell, in case they come back down.

And backup detail ready, all right?

Let's go, move, move.

Sara.

Oh, my God.

Come on, Sara.

-You hurt? You okay? -I'm fine.

Christina's gone. There's a Kn*fe in the last drawer.

You have any idea where she went?

No.

She has Scylla.

She set up Linc and Michael. She could be anywhere.

-Michael and Lincoln? -Yeah, they were framed.

For the m*rder of an Indian official. It's all over the news.

-It was Christina's plan and-- -Where are they now?

They were trapped at the Panda Bay Hotel.

-Police are looking for them. -Okay.

Whoa, you can't go there. The cops are everywhere.

-I really need you to get out of my way. -Well, that's not gonna happen.

You don't care for me, I don't care for you much either.

But I owe Michael, okay?

Run. He's in a sea of trouble--

-I'm not abandoning him. -I'm not telling you to abandon him.

There's nothing you can do. I'd run if I could run.

But if I run, they go after my wife, so I have to jump back in.

-You don't. -I'm not running.

I'll stay here, okay?

That way, Michael knows where I am.

So does Christina.

If she wanted me dead, I would be already.

Suit yourself.

Alex?

Thanks. And if you see Michael, tell him I'm here.

Yeah.

/ know how difficult this must be for you.

Mr. Prime Minister, I too lost a son, when he was just a child.

Was your son m*rder*d by an assailant's b*llet?

Of course not.

I've heard the news that the Chinese are behind this.

Yes, I've heard that as well.

And that's why I'm here.

Not to discuss how my son d*ed, but how to avenge him.

Your technology, as you put it...

...I've heard rumors of its varied applications.

-Nandu, let's take a breath here. -No.

The time to take a breath expired when my son d*ed.

Your son and I planned to use the technology...

...for humanitarian endeavors.

Warfare applications were not our goal.

But now they are mine.

You are a businesswoman with a product...

...and I am a buyer.

I want to commit to all the intellectual property you possess.

I want the People's Republic of China to feel the pain I feel right now.

Do you comprehend the ramifications of what it is you're proposing?

More than you know.

If it is what you want.

I must go now...

...lo make arrangements for your payment...

...and arrangements for my child's burial.

-Yeah? -Congratulations, you're famous again.

You're all over the news for k*lling Gandhi.

I figured as much. -Yeah, well, it gets worse.

They're gonna gas you out.

-When? -Already started.

They're going floor by floor. They're at the third or fourth.

Why are you just telling me about this now?

! had to leave the lobby. ! can't make anybody more suspicious.

Hello? Michael?

Michael?

Linc, I need your help.

When I was in fourth grade, I got an A for guessing all the answers on this test.

I never thought I'd b*at those odds.

What kind of loser gets set up...

...for two high-profile assassinations within five years?

This is not your fault.

They didn't get away with it then, they're not gonna get away with it now.

But I need you to focus.

I need your help, Linc.

All right, let's get out of here.

Darrin Hooks, Homeland Security. Point me to whoever's in charge here.

Homeland? How many of you guys are they sending here?

-Agent Self's already inside. -Who?

Agent Don Self.

Got here a little while ago.

Yeah, it's Hooks.

The name of that agent that was supposedly k*lled recently in L.A.

Was his name Don Self?

It's all falling out exactly as Christina planned it.

Now she's going to have everything she ever hoped for.

She's trying to reignite the 1962 China-India border w*r...

...which ended in an uneasy truce when neither country could withstand...

...the losses they sustained in those remote and desolate mountains.

If she succeeds in provoking another w*r--

And framing China for the k*lling of India's prime minister's son...

...is certainly provocation enough.

--She'll set off a m*llitary conflict that will last for decades...

...and may never be resolved.

Why didn't you do it yourself?

Power, money? Seem to be things you love.

Because if India's involved, that drags in Pakistan...

...then Russia's gonna defend its borders.

Then within a year, Europe's in it, and after that the United States.

It's an apocalypse in which everyone loses.

And Christina has always been foo prideful...

...and too unstable to accept that.

Got it. - All Metro Dade units:

Hotel security is requesting confirmation that all levels of the hotel are secure.

Can I help you? Hi.

Yes, I think you can.

Agent Self.

Donald Self?

Agent Darrin Hooks.

It's good to see you.

It's good to see you too.

Hold it. Hold it right there, don't move.

What the hell are you doing, Hooks?

You always pull g*ns on fellow agents?

Yeah, on agents that are supposedly dead...

...and are found later in a hotel with the guys that k*lled them.

You mind telling me what you're doing with Burrows and Scofield?

My cover called for me to be dead.

People were catching on to what we were doing, and my death freed me up.

Burrows and Scofield have been set up. Okay, I--

-There's no record of you in covert ops. -That was by design.

When this is over, we'll call home office...

...I punch in my clearance code...

...and we'll share some laughs about this.

But right now, I need to do my damn job.

No.

You're gonna follow, and we're gonna clear this up right now.

Okay, but what I said about Scofield and Burrows is true.

They've been set up. You need to look into this.

Oh, I'm gonna look into everything, as soon as we get outside.

Let's go.

Did you clear the loading dock doors?

No, but someone else did.

What do you mean?

Someone must have taken him out.

There's someone in the hotel other than the police that's looking for you.

Linc, we gotta move. We've got more than just the cops after us now.

Whoa. You know what you're doing?

Nope.

Let's go.

I want everybody with full gear on. I want you guys to...

Captain Hutchinson. All right.

We've got a room breach on 16.

This is Hutchinson. Scofield and Burrows are on 16.

I repeat, Scofield and Burrows are on 16.

Come on, go, go, go! Move, move, move!

-This way. I got it.

Make sure the door can shut. We need the pressure to build.

They're coming.

They're coming.

We're on 16.

Copy that.

On my mark, go.

Go.

Backup detail, move.

Go, go, go.

Move, move, move! Go, move!

Move, move!

-What the hell happened? -They booby-trapped us.

-They made a move for the roof. -Get him to a hospital.

All right. Let's go! Move, move!

Stop right there.

Don't make a move for that w*apon, Burrows.

Take the masks off.

Take them off now.

Hands behind your head.

You better pray to God my men are found all right.

It was a concussive blast. They're just unconscious.

Shut up.

Easy.

Easy.

You're gonna follow that advice about not going for your g*ns.

The General would like you back at the loft.

Now.

Did all go well at the hotel?

What's going on with Sara and my mother?

Christina escaped.

Sara's okay. She's in the condo.

Excuse me, would you boys like a little alone time to catch up?

What exactly do you expect from us?

You need to take responsibility for your failures.

Hey, we failed nothing. This whole thing was a setup.

-You know it. -Lincoln Burrows was outsmarted.

Who could have anticipated that?

I think you need to accept that this is over.

I've been holding a chip for far too long.

It's time to play it.

I made you boys a promise.

You would find Scylla, and I...

...would see to it you got some cash and had the slate wiped clean.

I intend to keep that promise.

However, if I keep one promise, I have to keep them all.

Now, I wonder who the big winner will be.

-Don't do this. -Don't do what?

When I sent you those envelopes, I wasn't just playing games.

I made it very clear...

...that you had one day to accomplish your job...

...or there would be consequences.

-What's that? -The consequence.

Call our man in Queens.

Queens? What are you calling New York for?

Put it on speaker, please.

Yes? Move on subject four.

I'm a block away. ETA is less than two minutes.

You son of a bitch.

You son of a bitch. My wife is a defenseless woman.

Mr. Self didn't inform you that he had a wife, did he?

I wouldn't talk about my wife either if I had too many bourbons...

...got behind the wheel and turned a beautiful young woman...

-...into a piece of broccoli. -Don't do anything.

I assume that is why you tried to run away with Scylla.

To screw the government giving you benefits that'd only pay...

...for a county facility overlooking the Belt Parkway...

...and sell it, so that you and she could disappear and be hidden forever.


C'est la vie.

! have the subject in sight.

She's in a wheelchair under a tree in the hospital--

Please don't do this, okay? Please, you can k*ll me.

Okay, you can k*ll me right now, please.

-k*ll me. -Don't do this, we'll get Scylla.

-That's what I want to hear. -We're trying.

You have to know...

...what awaits you and your loved ones if you don't.

-We understand. -Execute the order.

Please don't do that!

- Oh, my God. Get help, get help.

I believe you made a request.

Get him!

Bagwell, make sure he's dead.

Does everyone understand now?

Are we all on the same page?

Good.

Let's get down to business.

Three quarters of a billion dollars in a numerical account in Luxembourg.

If you are still worried about humanitarian efforts...

...write a check to UNICEF.

All the data will be delivered within 24 hours.

That's what I expected.

Played it perfectly.

Reach out to our contact in China.

I have a feeling they may be interested in what we're selling as well.

Christina, I don't advise playing both sides of this coin.

Pigs get fat, an ox gets slaughtered.

Reach out to China.

No, keep our people in every private airfield in Florida...

...and in Georgia.

We can't have Christina leaving the state.

She played on India's emotions, which probably means...

...she'd wanna meet with one of their emissaries.

She could still be in Miami, maybe at the embassy.

No, she's not at the embassy.

Any deal she makes with India will be off the radar.

Right now, she's concerned with two things:

One is closing the deal on Scylla, which I'm assuming she's already done.

And the second is getting paid.

No sign of Self.

-How much can she get for Scylla? -Half a billion from India.

The same from China.

Overseas account, foreign wire transfer?

I doubt she's taking any food stamps.

She's gonna want confirmation that money is safely overseas...

...before she leaves the U.S.

We find the money, we find my mother.

Normally, it takes three business days for an international wire transfer to clear.

Unless the bank is a federal reserve signatory.

-The transfer is immediate. -You think she'll head to the bank?

All she has to do is withdraw a few grand from the millions...

...that that buyer has probably transferred overseas already.

She'll know it's all there.

So let's find a federal reserve signatory bank in Miami.

-And we'll have a sh*t at finding her. -And Scylla.

There, Michael. You see, that's why I didn't put your name in the bowl.

You're the only one that's irreplaceable. Agents, informants, muscle...

...they're nice to have, but, finally, they're replaceable.

There's a branch 20 minutes away.

That mind of yours is one in a million.

Nice to see it finally working for me.

I do not work for you.

Not yet.

It's legitimate.

I assure you.

Oh, okay.

I just wanna withdraw the $10,000 so I can be sure...

...the Luxembourg account is properly set up.

Of course.

Is she in there?

Yeah, I saw her through the window. She's talking to a tall dark-haired guy.

Same guy that set us up at the hotel.

We'll wait until she comes out, we just jump them.

What do we do about her security?

I mean, we jump her, we gotta jump the guy she's with...

...and God knows how many other agents are gonna come crawling out like ants.

Look, I hate to bring up the obvious...

...but last time I checked, you two still disagreed...

...as to what to do with Scylla if we actually get it.

-Yeah, that's what I thought. -Let's get the damn thing.

Who's gonna stop us? A 70-year-old security guard?

No, probably the guy with the g*n.

He'll open fire as soon as he sees our faces.

Then maybe they shouldn't see our faces.

The pizza guy showed up...

...and Wayne jumped out of the bushes and tried to grab the pizza, but the guy--

Oh, my gosh.

Are you okay, mister?

-Go call 911. Go, go. -No, no.

Don't call anyone, okay?

Don't call anybody.

Don't call anyone.

You know, once baby brother has got his little hands...

...on that magic box, I don't think it's gonna be hard...

...for him to trick Magilla Gorilla, if you know what I'm saying.

No, I don't.

You think that Scofield's gonna risk his nephew's life?

He's gonna figure out something before he hands first prize over to the bad guys.

Scofield thinks pure like a little Cub Scout.

Burrows, he just thinks like a cub.

I don't feel comfortable having Scofield out there with something I want...

...when I'm stuck here with nothing he wants.

I need leverage.

You saw the way Mahone pulled Scofield over when they first got here.

Bet you they was talking about little Dr. Underpants...

...and her whereabouts.

Too bad we don't know where that is.

Wrong again, Curly.

While everyone was here flapping their gums...

...I took the liberty of toddling down to Mahone's car...

...checking out the last address he put in his GPS.

There's a gambler's chance...

...we might find the leverage you're looking for right here.

-I'm on it.

You wanted to get in on the action, here's your chance.

Okay, I'll just count this out for you.

That won't be necessary.

Alrighty.

Here's a printed record of your transaction.

With a balance that high...

...are you sure you don't wanna talk to our investment specialists?

No, thank you.

Everybody down on the ground now.

Nobody move, nobody gets hurt.

You, down.

All the banks in Miami. What are the odds?

Don't.

The case.

I'll take that.

Hi, Mom.

Scofield and Burrows leaving the bank now.

Go!

Run, run!

-Take Scylla and go. -We gotta stay together.

I said go. -Come on.

Run, get back inside.

I think he's out. Move in, move in.

After today, how many eggs...

...does the U.S. court system have on its face...

...for exonerating Lincoln Burrows?

An omelet's worth, Paula.

If you remember, ! was never in favor of the exoneration.

Lincoln Burrows is a thug for hire, and his little brother is no better.

I'm amazed that the court system Just glossed over the warning signs.

Such as?

For one, they should have never let Burrows and Scofield in the same prison.

They should've looked at Scofield's past. It's clear he had no criminal background.

Why would a brilliant structural engineer rob a bank?

PAULA. Maybe he needed to pay off student loans.

It wasn't about the money.

What do you think the judicial system is going to learn?

This has been a huge wake-up call for the counts.

Judges will have to look at all the relationships in an inmate's life...

Shh, shh, shh. Easy now, doc, easy. It's just your friendly neighborhood T-Bag.

I'm gonna need your cooperation.

Ah!

-Get your hands off of me, you son-- -Hand.

Not hands. Thanks to your boyfriend.

Now, as I was saying before, I just need your cooperation.

Come in here.

All right.

All right.

He's taking too long.

Something's wrong.

We gotta go back for him.

-He said he'd catch up. -No, something's wrong.

Call him.

Call him.

Michael.

Now that we have this, what the hell are we gonna do with it?

He's not answering.

Linc?

I heard about the bank robbery on the radio.

You boys just can't stand to be out of the news, can you?

I assume you've got Scylla.

We're getting close. We'll keep you posted.

I wouldn't hang up just yet if I were you, son.

Michael, we're in the apartment.

I know you have it.

Otherwise, Christina would never have risked a public sh**t.

Now, I'm gonna make this easy for you.

Bring me Scylla, or this time Sara's death will not be faked.

What is it?

What is it?

The General has Sara.

Take it.

I swear, if you touch her--

Hello, son.

I believe you have something I want.

And I have something you want, although I'll never really understand why.

All right, maybe we can work something out.

I gave you the opportunity to work something out.

You rejected me, Michael.

Look, let's meet and talk about this.

The time for talking passed the time you put those ski masks on, don't you think?

So here's what I'm gonna do, Michael.

I'm gonna sh**t Lincoln through the right rib cage...

...just grazing the lower quadrant of his right lung.

It'll slowly collapse, making it very difficult to breathe.

If he doesn't get medical attention within five hours, he'll be dead.

Christina. Mom, please.

Linc!

Second hand spinning, Michael.

Looks like you have a little decision to make.

Scylla or someone you love.
