A 'LINC SMASH!' special this week.
Where to go now though?
What do the people actually trying to buy Cilla for a Lorra' lorra' money actually plan on doing with it?
Will they bring the company down, meaning theres no reason Schofield et al couldn't just sell it and everyones happy, or do they have more nefarious deeds planned?

Where did "LINC SMASH!" originate? Since I first heard it, it's made Dominic Purcell's "acting" so much more enjoyable. :lol:

Didn't like this episode that much, after the previous two it just couldn't top it ! Poor Mike Novik, gunned down in the office (which rocked)...
If only Brad was in this episode.... BRAD :(
I thought it went up to 13 episodes then going on a break, turns out 3 more to go before Chrimbo !

From The Incredible Hulk: HULK SMASH!! Linc isn't as intelligent as The Hulk though!
I started to nod off during this one last night. What was the summary of who's working for who, with regards to Self's boss (with the tash) and the other guy who came in to 'investigate'? I think I need to read up to fill in my sleep-filled blanks.

Self's boss was genuine FBI, and the skinny older guy was an "uncorrupt" Senator. The US Marshall (the younger guy who tagged along) was the only one working for the company.
Prision Break is a good Show.This show take the Top 4th position in my Favorite List.Prison Break is awesome.

Cool - ta.
Liked it when Self told T-Bag to cock his gun while on the phone and he does it off camera. Was hoping to see him fumble around for half an hour with his prosthetic hand :(

Looked like all he had to do was slide the top back, wouldn't have been an issue for his prosthetic hand.
Having never cocked a pistol I imagine it would involve some sort of spring loaded action requiring a degree of grip to pull it back? No idea really but the fact they didn't show it got me wondering ;)

Ah. well i'm no gun expert either, but I don't think it'd be difficult for a man with one prosthetic hand to load the chamber with today's semi-automatics.
Selfs face at the end when the guy told him he was missing a piece was priceless
I too found myself shouting "LINC SMASH!" on several occasions this week. It's all silly fun, but if it ends this season I won't be disappointed. Although I quite liked the cuts between similar scenes in this one (ex-cons planning stuff over here, and The Company planning stuff over there).
Immunity: am I right in thinking that our heroes were all free at the start of the season, and Self manufactured a reason that they had to pay off a debt? So they wanted immunity for that, and for the crimes they committed in pursuit of Scylla -- but with the operation shut down and records erased, nobody knew they'd done anything bad (apart from any witnesses who will be conveniently ignored)? I didn't really get it.

Almost, but I believe Self and his boss work for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS).

I can't remember who has been acquitted of which crimes now. I thought Linc was cleared in S2, Sarah has no crimes and Michael is on the hook for the original bank hold up and breaking Linc out of prison. Is this right?
A bit more of Stacy Haiduk in the series would be great

Linc - Jailed for not killing the former Presidents brother. Acquitted for that, but arrested for something either at the end of S3 or beginning of S4. I think thats what he's still threated with going to jail for.
Michael - Jailed for the bank robbery. IIRC he's never had his charges dropped?
Sucre - Can't remember why he was in prison, but has never been acquitted. Irony is he would have probably been released and free after serving his term had he not gotten involved in the whole Prison Break thing.
Mahone - Was he actually convicted of anything, or was he just put in SONA by the company? I thought he was just out for revenge this year.
T-Bag - Should be still in jail. Can't think of a single instance where he'd have been in a position to be granted immunity.

I can't remember if Linc is wanted for a new crime, if he is then it should only be in Panama when he killed the company agents who went after him. I don't think he has any outstanding crimes in the US. IIRC Mahone was jailed in Panama for the murder of that Asian chap from the company who was ordering him about in season 2. I think he's also wanted for murder in the US as well, for the guy he killed and buried in his back yard, and maybe for the murder of the young lad who broke out of Foxworth.
Again, IIRC the ones who were previously wanted in the US are still wanted, Self never got them immunity from their existing crimes when he started the operation, he just gave them new identities and a facility to take down the company.

Mahone was jailed in Panama for the drugs on the Boat, that Michael Set him up with.
