To Courthouse and to Utah
claudio_carvalho11 October 2008
Michael and Lincoln split from Sucre, C-Note and Abruzzi, and plan to rescue LJ from the Cook County Courthouse in Chicago. However, agent Mahone unsuccessfully presses LJ to betray his father and his uncle and make a deal; then he escorts LJ and spoils their plan. Meanwhile T-Bag kills Dr. Gudat after the implantation of his hand, dyes his hair and uses the car of the veterinary surgeon to head to Utah. Tweener pretends to be a college guy and gets a ride to Utah in the car of a student. Warden Pope and Captain Bellick are interrogated in a hearing of a justice commission and Geary denounces Bellick of selling the Prison Industries to Abruzzi; the panel fires Bellick and suspends Pope, who quits his position.

In "Otis", it is clear that the smart agent Mahone, who is trying to get into Michael's head, will foresee Michael's plan and will be on his tail. The running to Utah will certainly be another subject of this Second Season. And the motivation of Brad Bellick will be also to chase the fugitives. The show is good, but the physical resistance of T-Bag seems to be exaggerated. My vote is eight.

Title (Brazil): "Tentativa de Resgate" ("Attempt to Rescue")

A Great Show
mithrandir_rc31 August 2006
After escaping from the cemetery with FBI Agent Mahone on their tail, Michael steals a bag of food from a couple that were on a picnic. After they ate, Michael gives Sucre and C-Note money to start a new life. Abruzzi asks for Fibonacci, but Michael refuses to give him this information. They end up leaving. Liconln learns in the newspaper that his son, LJ has a hearing in a courthouse to decide if he gets tried as an adult and he believes is the only chance to get him out. Meanwhile, Mahone attempts to use LJ to lure Scofield and Burrows. Warden Pope and Brad Bellick begin to feel disappointed once the case is handed over to the FBI and also when former CO, Geary tells on Bellick for selling PI to Abruzzi, which was the main reason why the inmates escaped in the first place. LJ receives a phone call from Liconln saying "I'm the third look out for Otis right" This is revealed later as a plan to get LJ out once he is on a elevator. Mahone tracks the call and knows that Michael and Liconln are trying to pull something off. He realizes it when he looks at a sign saying "Otis Manufactoring". Michael and Liconln try to get LJ, but Mahone sounds the alarm and manages to keep LJ with him. The police begin to pursuit Burrows and Scofield as they get into a car. Burrows is hit in the leg and bleeds really bad. Mahone is getting closer. Finally, T-Bag fixes his hand and then kills Doctor Gudkat. He changes his hair and takes a car to drive to Utah. Meanwhile, Tweener arrives to St. Louis and infiltrates a bunch of college students on their way to spring break.

Season of Stupidities
jitmehra10 October 2017
So, the second episode in the season of stupidities. First stupidity when Veronica walks inside Terence Stead man's house saying hello to him, without any weapon, without any protection, thinking she will be allowed to stroll in there and call the cops after a cozy chat and thus gets herself killed. Episode 1. In episode 2, Lincoln and Michael decide to rescue LJ from the courthouse, except just near the courthouse Lincoln decides to stand openly on the streets outside a shop from which Mike is buying supplies, without a hat, without his goggles, without any kind of disguise and wink and nod at passing ladies. I mean, seriously? Is that what two guys, whose photos have been plastered all over newspapers and walls and one of whom is on death row for murdering the President's brother for God's sake, about to run off with a lad from the courthouse do? Which world of stupidity do they come from? Which person about to break into a courthouse and steal a criminal nods and smiles at passersby, especially when he himself is on the most wanted list? Height of nonsense.
