Prison Break

‫MALE NARRATOR: Previously on ‫Prison Break:

‫I'm through.

‫See you on the other side.

‫It can't be done.

‫We're not getting out of here.

‫There's only one person ‫who can really stop this execution.

‫Would you talk to your father ‫for me?

‫I'm the last person in the world ‫that my father listens to.

‫The Governor has reviewed ‫your case.

‫He's not granting clemency.

‫Let's proceed.

‫I came in here a man.

‫Give me the strength ‫to walk out of here a man.

‫(breathing heavily)

‫Doctor, you can leave now.

‫It's him.

‫Michael.

‫VERONICA: What's he saying?

‫Michael, turn around.

‫It's him.

‫VERONICA: What do you think ‫he's saying?

‫Michael, turn around.

‫(phone beeping)

‫What's going on?

‫I don't know.

‫What's happening?

‫What the hell's ‫going on in there?

‫(wind howling)

‫(door opening)

‫I can't tell you ‫how sorry I am

‫that you've had to ‫go through all of this.

‫(chains rattling)

‫Lincoln.

‫What happened in there?

‫Judge Kessler called. ‫The execution's been delayed.

‫What do you mean delayed?

‫Apparently, some new evidence ‫has come to light.

‫-What evidence? ‫-I don't understand.

‫How long do we have? ‫One day, two days?

‫That's all the information ‫I have at the moment. I'm sorry.

‫I'll give you a minute.

‫You okay?

‫I need to know ‫how much time we have.

‫I'll go and see the judge ‫and find out.

‫You're with Michael. ‫You'll be okay.

‫-Did you see him? ‫-Who?

‫The guy in the viewing room.

‫No.

‫It was Dad.

‫It was Dad.

‫(theme music playing)

‫It was him. I know it was.

‫That's not possible, Linc.

‫It is possible. I saw him.

‫I don't know how ‫you could have.

‫There were only half a dozen ‫people in that room.

‫Me, Veronica ‫and a bunch of reporters.

‫-He wasn't there. ‫-You don't know that.

‫I do. ‫I would have recognized him.

‫You don't remember ‫what he looks like. I do.

‫This is a man who took off, ‫what, 30 years ago?

‫Why would he come back now, ‫at the very last minute?

‫(sighing)

‫I don't know.

‫REYNOLDS: Why is he ‫still alive?

‫It appears that ‫some information

‫was anonymously slipped ‫to the judge.

‫Anonymously?

‫It was your fat little friend, ‫Hale.

‫If you had taken care of him ‫sooner...

‫It wasn't Hale.

‫How do you know that?

‫If Hale had given ‫Veronica Donovan

‫anything that could have ‫gotten a stay of execution,

‫I think she would have brought it up ‫when she made her argument in court.

‫It didn't come from him.

‫Well, who else ‫on your end knows?

‫Who else on your end knows? ‫Why all the finger-pointing at us?

‫Are you sure that the leak didn't ‫come from your end? From The Company?

‫Hey, we are all ‫on the same team, remember?

‫Absolutely.

‫Just find the leak ‫and plug it.

‫Thank you, ma'am.

‫One more thing.

‫The next time ‫you're in my office,

‫I expect you to stand ‫when you're addressing me.

‫Absolutely.

‫All I can tell is I was working late ‫in chambers,

‫I left at 11:00,

‫and there it was, ‫right under my door.

‫One is Terrence Steadman's ‫autopsy report.

‫In it, his appendix is noted ‫as present and unremarkable.

‫The other paper ‫is an operative report

‫from when Mr. Steadman ‫was 12 years old.

‫The procedure ‫was an appendectomy.

‫That's impossible. ‫Let me see this.

‫I want the conviction ‫overturned

‫and Lincoln Burrows ‫immediately released from custody.

‫Whoa, whoa, whoa, ‫not so fast.

‫These records haven't ‫even been certified.

‫The hospital can tell you.

‫The hospital does not keep ‫records going back that far. I checked.

‫So as far as we know, ‫these documents could be a hoax

‫from some anti-death penalty ‫advocate

‫or, dare I say it, ‫defense counsel.

‫Oh, please. ‫You're preposterous.

‫Let's just all take ‫a deep breath here, okay?

‫I don't know what ‫these papers mean

‫and for that reason, ‫I'd like to err on the side of caution.

‫I'm going to delay ‫the execution for two weeks.

‫That should give us ‫more than enough time to exhume the body.

‫Exhume the body.

‫Your Honor, all due respect, ‫that is a drastic measure.

‫It's also the only way ‫we're going to know

‫if that body in the ground ‫is really Terrence Steadman.

‫GUARD (on P.A. system): ‫Recreation hour will be over in 10...

‫SCOFIELD: So that's not ‫Steadman that was buried?

‫VERONICA: We don't know. ‫If it isn't, Lincoln's free.

‫If it is, we're right ‫back where we started.

‫Take care of yourself, ‫Michael.

‫So, that body, ‫what if it's him?

‫Well, I'm not going ‫to sit around hoping.

‫What does that mean?

‫It means we get back ‫to work.

‫God, I was hoping ‫you would say that.

‫They're digging ‫up the body, huh?

‫To be honest, ‫I've never been

‫in a situation ‫like this before.

‫If nothing else, ‫you can be glad that

‫you've got people who'll go to extreme ‫lengths to get you out of here.

‫No kidding.

‫Warden,

‫um, at the execution,

‫there was a man ‫in the viewing room.

‫Just wondering if you ‫or anyone in the prison had spoken to him.

‫Well, according to this,

‫those present were your brother, ‫his attorney and three reporters,

‫two women and a man.

‫The man, who was he?

‫Um, he was from ‫The Headline Press.

‫William Prall.

‫You know him?

‫No.

‫Guard.

‫Hold it steady, please.

‫What exactly ‫are you looking for in all that ink?

‫A new way out of here.

‫You don't know ‫those plans by now?

‫No.

‫Memorizing it would be like ‫memorizing the phone book.

‫Yeah, but why not ‫just tat up Route 66?

‫Contingencies.

‫Contingencies?

‫You saying ‫you found another way?

‫Maybe.

‫What do you mean, maybe?

‫There's always been another way, ‫but it's suicide.

‫(men chattering)

‫Man, I'm so cold ‫my hands are stinging.

‫You know what they say ‫about weather in the Midwest,

‫if you don't like it, ‫wait an hour.

‫We're still going out ‫through the infirmary

‫and we're still going to ‫do it from the guards' room.

‫It's just the in-between ‫that's gonna have to change.

‫Now wait a minute. ‫Why are you changing the plan, man?

‫We're already through that room ‫beneath the infirmary.

‫That's all we gotta do is get through ‫that pipe and we're home free.

‫There's a reason they replaced it with ‫a 12-inch pipe, Darwin.

‫People can't get through it.

‫The only way we're getting into that ‫infirmary is from beneath.

‫We're going to have ‫to find another way.

‫WESTMORELAND: The psych ward?

‫It's the only building that shares a ‫subsurface line with the infirmary.

‫You telling me,

‫to get to the infirmary ‫we gotta go through the whack shack?

‫Unless you got a better idea.

‫And there's a subsurface line ‫that runs

‫from the guards' room ‫to the psych ward?

‫Sort of.

‫Oh, whoa, whoa. What do you-- ‫What do you mean "sort of"?

‫We can go into that hole ‫in the guards' room.

‫About 40 yards up Route 66,

‫there's a grate and that'll get us ‫halfway there.

‫And what about ‫the rest of the way?

‫We gotta do it above ground.

‫Oh, so it's just ‫a bunch of cons

‫taking a stroll in the middle of the night ‫for all the guards to see?

‫Yep.

‫You're right. It is suicide.

‫This grate that you're talking about, ‫it's hidden, right, partner?

‫The COs can't see it.

‫Not exactly.

‫Well, where is it?

‫You're standing on it.

‫Oh, hell no.

‫When we come up out of that ground ‫there, that tower there,

‫that tower there,

‫that tower behind me ‫is gonna see us.

‫We'll be like ducks ‫in a shooting range. You feel me?

‫Hurry it up, cons.
