Breakin!

With four Super Fantastic Top Secret Keys to the Apocalypse Plastic Swipe Cards to go, the Breaky Bunch prep themselves for next phase in taking down The Company and doing their part to abolish capitalism and help pave the way for a socialist takeover of the United States economy. Of course Brad Bellick would be involved somehow in the end of our country as we know it.

The task at hand: infiltrating a government building, cracking an unbreakable safe, downloading the contents of the next card and making it out before…who are we kidding, of course they’re going to make it out.

Meanwhile, Mahone and Sarah team up to track down African-American Terminator and Gretchen breaks out of her prison to resurface and annoy me once more.

Power Rankings after the break!

1. Michael. Until someone else proves they have a functioning brain, Schofield will occupy the top rung for the foreseeable future.

2. Lincoln. He didn’t get his stab on today, but he came up with the brilliant idea to reduce the RPMs of the drill to bust a safe that was shockingly easy to get into after all. Bonus points for shedding the homeless GQ coverboy look.

3. Sucre. A modest rise for the Battlin’ Latin. His quick janitorial thinking saved the operation from being crashed by a nosy secretary. Okay it sounds lame now, but in the heat of the moment it was pretty intense.

4. Agent Self. Homeboy finally put his money where his mouth is and pitched in to help recover the card, even if it mean severe legal ramifications and a demotion back to doing unbearable half-hour sitcoms for Fox.

5. Bellick. He sure scrubbed the carpet like a champ!

DNP

Mahone. While the other guys were off committing felony breaking an entering, Mahone was chasing down leads on African-American Terminator, hoping to avenge the murder of his son. He’s got that wild look in his eyes. Watch out.

Sarah. Spent the episode apologizing for being in a bar. Next week looks like she’ll have more to do. Joy.
