Prison break season 3 episode 4
Ramal's got an exposed bar in his cell which he uses to free Michael, who frees the rest of them - but if breaking out of the prison was so easy, then why wouldn't other prisoners have figured this out already? Michael's kind of a big deal when it comes to breaking out of prisons, if you haven't heard.The third season of Prison Break, an American serial drama television series, commenced airing in the United States on September 17, 2007, on Mondays at 8:00 pm ( EST) on Fox. It's a pretty good, dramatic scene even if the writers don't do a great job of explaining why, exactly, the cells are so easy to break out of if the two prisoners can just find a way to overcome their differences and work together. "Or would you rather be their insurance?" Michael says, pointing to the angry crowd. "You're going to be our insurance," Michael says, demanding Ramal's help - and the help of ISIS - in getting out of the country. That prompts Ramal to help Michael instead of waiting for ISIS and his friends in the prison to take over. Luckily for Michael and his compatriots, when disorder descends on the prison, a pugnacious Christian fundamentalist is the one who seizes on the chaos and takes control. As expected, ISIS has continued advancing on the prison and eventually the guards flee. Unfortunately they seem to come too late to save Kellerman.īack in Yemen, Michael successfully breaks out of Ogiya with former cell mates, Ja (the surprisingly sophisticated South Korean drug dealer), Whip (a Sucre-like figure which, by the way begs the question, where they hell is Sucre?), and Ramal. Bagwell is now helping Sarah and with a heavy dose of irony - "there's a time for everything!" - is the one who ends up calling the police, which scare the assassins away. By now that gives us a good rubric for good guys and bad guys: Are they from the previous series? Kellerman has died for the cause. The fact that the information Kellerman shared got him killed also suggests we can trust it. If you'd watched Kellerman go from being a ruthless killer, to one of the moral centers of the show, to seeing the possibility of him having been corrupted again - it's a relief. "I was once you, killing for a lie," he says to the operative, before expiring. It also seems like we're supposed to see Kellerman as a martyr. That said, it seems clear at this point that at the very least whoever the bad guy is, he's plugged in. The assassins from the previous episodes appear to be waiting there, but that's all we get. We do get a quick clue: At one point in the episode, an anonymous and important-looking government official takes a phone call and then walks out into a lobby of a government-looking building. We don't know whether it's a single person or not, but we know from the two assassins who take out Kellerman in the middle of his explanation that Poseidon doesn't act alone. Kellerman explains that Poseidon is so deeply embedded, you couldn't find him with a nuclear submarine, hence the name. Kellerman theorizes that Poseidon wants Ramal broken out of prison, a theory that jibes with what we've learned on Michael's side. Poseidon, we learn from Kellerman, is the pseudonym for an ideologically driven member (or members) of the intelligence community who engage in subterfuge to pursue their own ends overseas, by swaying an election, for instance.
