Episode Report Card Sobell: B+ | Grade It Now! YOU GRADE IT The Fool Of The World And The Flying Ship
By Sobell | Season 3 | Episode 8 | Aired on 11.11.2007
Meanwhile, on the outside...Susan B. is sitting in her hotel room staring straight ahead dully and ignoring her ringing phone. She takes a belt of expensive whiskey. I would feel worse for her, except there's the whole "kill 'em all" thing.
Inside the courtyard, the head honcho of all honchos has strolled over to Scofield and ordered him up. Whistler and Bellick take note of this. The warden says, "Mr. Scofield, there have been two escape attempts in the past two days. Somehow, I don't think it's a coincidence that you arrived shortly before they happened." When Michael protests that he had nothing to do with that, the warden belts him and explains, "You cause too many problems here in Sona." (We get a shot of real problem-causer T-Bag slyly checking out the scene.) The warden concludes, "Maybe you shouldn't be here in Sona. Say good-bye to Sona, Mr. Scofield." As Bellick, Whistler, and T-Bag (all lined up, natch) watch, Michael is hauled away by guards. The doors close behind him -- and the episode ends.
Gosh, I'd be all worried about where Michael would end up, and I would spend the next eight weeks or so on tenterhooks...but stupid FOX ruined all the suspense by immediately displaying where Michael will end up. So, way to kneecap your own show, network promo monkeys! Thanks to your gift of revealing, I can now enjoy my Thanksgiving and Christmas speculation-free. And to you few, you proud recap readers...have a good holiday season, and I'll see you in 2008.
