Prison Break

The season opener finds Michael Scofield in Sona, a hellish and deadly Panamanian prison where a previous riot has forced all authority out and has left the prisoners in charge of their own lives (and deaths).

Michael races to find a hidden Whistler before Mahone; searching for clues outside the prison, Lincoln runs into an old friend and makes a new one; T-Bag slithers his way into Lechero's graces as the prisoners threaten a revolt due to the lack of agua (water).

Determined to speak with Sara, Michael enlists T-Bag's help to get to the only phone in Sona: Lechero's; Lincoln attempts a daring rescue; Whistler comes clean to Michael, just as Mahone is tempted to fall back on a dirty habit; and Bellick makes an enemy while attempting to get back on his feet.

After his failed attempt to rescue LJ and Sara, Lincoln receives a deadly warning from The Company; Michael formulates an electrifying escape plan from Sona; Mahone is haunted by a face from the past; and T-Bag crawls up the ladder as Bellick lands in hot water with Lechero.

A new inmate enters Sona, unnerving Whistler and raising Michael's suspicions.

When an inmate is found murdered, Whistler becomes the prime suspect and Michael must prove his innocence in order to save his life.

Michael demands evidence from Susan that Sarah is alive, or he will cancel the escape.

Susan takes the escape into her own hands, leaving Michael's life hanging in the balance; Lechero reveals a secret buried beneath Sona; Sofia uncovers more of Whistler's past; Mahone's freedom hinges on his testimony; and Lincoln and Sucre are targeted by The Company.

After raising the suspicions of the Panamanian Army, Michael sweats out solitary Sona-style while Bellick weathers the fight of his life.

When Lechero loses his authority over Sona, Sammy causes Michael's escape plan to come crashing down.

Heavy rains force Michael to move up the escape timetable and break out of Sona that evening.

Michael and his fellow inmates make their break from Sona, but the escape doesn't go as planned for all of them.

Michael & Lincoln must handover Whistler to Susan so they can save LJ and Sofia's lives;.
