Lastly, the most insensate scene in this particular episode has to be when Mahone, Scofield and Lincoln decide to don ski masks (don’t know where they found some) and get guns (also don’t know where they got those), and pretend to be bank robbers in order to physically take Scylla from Christina. Given all the foolish plot developments so far in this episode “Cowboys and Indians,“ this ludicrous and idiotic scene is the one that probably left viewers bewildered as to how weak and limp the storytelling has become in this show.
It is perplexing too that next week is the finale to this entire series of Prison Break, and at a time when the show should be ending with a bang, offering viewers the best in plot development and storytelling, this episode seems instead to have veered into absurdity and ridiculousness in that area! It really is a shame that a series that started out so strong and prominent in the first season is now going to sink into oblivion because of its closing chapters.

That bullshit...If the Chinese Government paid to have the Prime Minister’s son assassinated. That would be considered an act of war..and of course would trigger at least a conflict.if not a war.. Obviously Sharmila your not a politition so its ok..but its not that ridicules

This show started very strong in S1, and kept You on the edge of your seat in S2. The 3rd season was back to its roots (plotting a prison escape in Panama), but by S4 the storyline started to really get thin. The never-ending twists - just for the sake of a twist - were becoming unbearable as it was clear to any educated viewer that the writers were just reaching for straws! so long Prison Break, the ride was fun, even if it WAS dawn out a year too long!
P.S. No last sighting of Gretchen... WTF?!?

I absolutely DETESTED the end story line of Prison Break. After all this time of watching this show, and trying to follow and make sense of the twists and turns it was continually taking while the writers seemingly tried to make up their minds about the direction to take the show, Michael died in the end!! WHAT?!?!?!? Are you kidding me?? Couldn't they just let Michael walk off into the sunset with Sarah and FINALLY, FINALLY have the life he'd been fighting endlessly for? The end really, really bugged me. Frankly, in the end, I don't think the writers cared or even thought about the audience connection to the characters, or the time that they'd devoted to watching the show, patiently waiting for it to make sense. A real bummer of an end. Quite the let down. Lesson learned for THIS watcher.
