TV Review: Prison Break - "Rendezvous"

Written by Douglas A. Waltz
Published November 07, 2006

Michael is finally able to connect with Sara from the clues he left her in the paper swans. Unfortunately, Agent Mahone has enough of a clue to track them down and Michael has figured out that Mahone is trying to kill them, not capture them.

Lincoln and his son LJ are saved from the cops by a group of people in a mysterious black van who turn out to be people working with his father. Lincoln's father believes he has evidence that will exonerate both Lincoln and Michael. Unfortunately, no organization is mole-proof.

Sucre is still trying to get a hold of Maria Cruz, to no avail. The one chance he has of talking to her on the phone is taken away when the cops park next to the pay phone where he is waiting.

Bellick and Geary find the key to the locker and have to get it from T-Bag in a most vile and disgusting way. They leave him chained by his bad hand to a radiator and call the cops on him as they make their way to the money.

There, did that seem scattershot enough for you? I did it on purpose because that was the way the episode played out for me. It was BAM — here's one thing! And then, BAM — here's another, and... Well, you get the idea. This was not a bad thing and we did get the opportunity to see Michael thinking on his feet and outwitting Agent Mahone.

You know they are piling on the tense drama because, according to IMdb, there are only two more episodes listed. That would give us a 12-episode season and last season was 17 episodes. So, I hope there are more episodes to be listed because I can't see this show wrapping up in two more episodes. At least, not to a satisfactory conclusion.

Once again, the people who give us Prison Break know what they're doing and manage to keep putting out a show that keeps me screaming at my television. I know they can't hear me, but I just can't help it.

Oh, and one last thing. You just know next week T-Bag is yanking that damned hand off. It makes me cringe to think of it.

Douglas A. Waltz reviews films. Some of which are so bad that he has received special training. If a normal person would be forced to sit through what he has endured, they wuld be stone cold dead.

There are two more episodes left before Prison Break takes its long hiatus like it did last season. It will likely be back sometime in February or March with the season's remaining episodes.

I find it kind of funny that ABC is following FOX's lead by having Lost take a similar hiatus so that there won't be any repeats.
