Dude, don't you hate it when you end up yelling at the TV?
Meanwhile, Agent Kim is meeting with Baldy Von Stringpuller in a stretch limo. He says nervously, "The stars are finally aligned, sir. Mahone's got Burrows, and Scofield is on his way." Baldy Von Stringpuller holds up a note reading "SONA?" and Kim assures him, "I will make that happen. I'm going down there myself." Baldy Von Stringpuller reminds him, "Just ONE is needed." Kim says smugly, "I assume we both know which one that is." Baldy Von Stringpuller gives Kim a look that makes me hope he and Michael come face-to-face in season three for a lethal stare-off. Before Kim hops out of the car, Baldy Von Stringpuller gives him an arm squeeze that conveys a thousand words, most of them articulating dire threats.
We cut back to the docks, where Linc is elaborately rolling his eyes during Mahone's attempts to woo his lady long-distance. Mahone is telling Pam, "We talked about getting back together, about giving it another shot." Pam is telling him, "Yes, and I said maybe we could... " If you weren't so crazy hangs on the end of that. Mahone jumps in, "What about Colombia? Cartagena?" Pam is all, "Huh, what?" and Mahone cajoles, "I'm not far from there right now, and I was thinking, why not stick around, have you guys come down?" Boy, I hope we get to see the scene where Pam and Cam discover they're staying. Mahone does the full-court press: "You always wanted to go, didn't you? Visit the homeland?" Pam points out that Mahone didn't. He smiles and says that he does now. Pam dithers about when they can come down. Mahone smiles, "Is that a yes? That's a yes, right?" Pam says, "Yes, yes," as Mahone grins, "Come on! Great coffees, great beaches, wildlife parks for Cameron." What, to take him to or to put him into? Anyway, Pam cautions that this may not work out -- "It can't be like it was before." Mahone sells it with all he's got: "It will never be like it was before. I know what's important now. I know what matters." Oh, Pam's sold: "I could look online." And what she'll find is that she can fly herself and her boy down there for about $1800. That is not bad, all things considered. As she gets ready to get off the phone, Mahone says, "Just come be with me, Pam. Be with me." We cut to Pam, who looks like she's about to say, "Okay," and crawl through the phone to get to him.
We cut to the Hospital San Matias in Panama City, Panama. A heavily bandaged Sucre is attempting to stand over the sink and clean up. It would probably go easier for him if he weren't shaking so hard, and I don't think the flashbacks to this season's insipid Maricruz scenes are helping either. Right then, the doctor comes in and asks what he's doing. Sucre tells her he's doing. The doctor replies, "That's ridiculous -- you're hypovolemic. You're down three pints of blood. That's thirty percent of the blood that's in your body. Kidney damage, brain damage, even death" Well, we all know that Sucre's in no danger of brain damage, because that consequence rests of the premise that he's got a working brain. Does that sound like any guy who's just taken a Phillips screwdriver to the liver, then lurched out the door to go hunt down his dozy girlfriend?
