Prison Break: "The Key"
The only reasons I'm actually posting this on the night of the airing are: a) I am a bad awful cheater and I saw the episode last week, and b) I should be writing a paper right now. Bella = awesome at school. Blah.
Okay, let's get the unimportant stuff out of the way right off the bat, shall we?
Lincoln: You're on death row because your dad won't give up information, not because you did anything. Well, that sucks, huh?
Spy Daddy: Please. Been there, done that. Also, Michael's totally going to end up killing the jerk in some Greek-tragedy-like moment next season, calling it now.
Kellerman: I think I need to start a PB drinking game. Kellerman uses an ice pack because he suddenly sucks at his job = take a shot.
Tweener: Sympathetic until he became a total assface in the last five minutes.
Avocado: EW.
T-Bag: The yearbook line was definitely the best line of the episode. I would really like him if he weren't a child molester, but there you go.
Bellick: Will be dead within the next two episodes, right?
Abruzzi: Scar, ow. Hand thing with T-Bag, scary. Religious conversation with Michael, hilarious. Welcome back, Abruzzi!
LJ and Veronica: Obviously I was not impressed because I have forgotten what they did in this episode. Moving on.
Nick: Why exactly did the writers think they needed to make this more complicated? I already don't understand the escape plan, and I am about to graduate from college, so I'm no dummy. More twists = unnecessary. Hey, let's just replace Nick with more gratuitous Wentworth naked in the shower time, shall we? That's something my educated brain can really appreciate.
Which brings me to the important stuff...
First off, I have to say that if Wentworth Miller kissed me like that (especially the cut during the kiss where he's definitely going in for the kill, if you know what I mean), I would not be able to form coherent sentences for a while. So, kudos to SWC for being a consummate professional and not melting into a big giant puddle of goo -- though I would like to see outtakes if she ever was actually speechless, because damn, Wentworth, damn. Love the conflict. Love love love love love. She's both a pawn in his big giant escape chess game and the woman that he can't help being attracted to. And OMG, the face touching, the pushing-the-hair-behind-her-ear thing. OMG. He totally could have just taken the keys, but he didn't, because he likes her in a totally adorable circle-yes-or-no grade-school kind of way. Sigh. If she doesn't go with them during the escape, I'm going to be really sad, and then I'm going to write fanfic where she does go along to make myself feel better.
Loved the meeting with Nika, loved the "he's a good man" stuff. LOVED her cold-as-ice routine when she figured out what was going on. Now, I haven't seen the previews for next week, but I know that he apparently comes out and tells her that they're escaping. I'd like it more if she just figured it out. After this whole escapade, she knows that he's up to something, and she's definitely been okay with investigating him in the past. Unless she's so super-pissed that the kiss was a game-pawn-thing (but it wasn't, Sara! I mean it was, but it wasn't just that!) that she refuses to even think about him anymore, she could totally put the pieces together at this point.
Okay, so I'm going to go watch the kiss again, and maybe, you know, write the paper I should be writing. Happy M/S kiss day, kids. :)
