Prison Break

The Gang's at the race track, acting all Cut-Rate Ocean's Eleven. Ocean's Six? It's a typically-convoluted way to get one of the cardholders into a room that has the data-copier-thingy.

Mahone gets caught and arrested when he punches a cop at the track. Not even Michael Rapaport can get him out of jail; he just gets the data-copier-thingy from him and abandons him. No sympathy for Mahone - the gang moves ahead on the plan without him.

Gretchen, who escaped her torture last week, visits her sister in California. She picks up a gun and some cash that she had stored there. VENGEANCE! I, unfortunately, do not have such a stash at my sister's house. And also Gretchen stashed her kid there, for her sister to raise. Lucky for the kid.

The Gang has a conscience, as ever, and they go to the court house to rescue Mahone from his arraignment. The assassin dude shows up to the court house and he and Mahone have a Stare-Off. In my opinion, Mahone wins. Mahone always wins.

How do you break someone out of a court house? Duh - stage a blackout.

I'm really hoping that by the end of the season Mahone has his vengeance and kicks the assassin's ass around a bit. That's the most interesting plot line of the show for me now.

Next week: They actually go for the full Ocean's Eleven rip-off - in Vegas. With Sucre used as bait for a gay dude. Awesome!
