Template:Prison Break episode "Flight" is the twenty-second episode of television series Prison Break. This is also the season finale of season 1.
Summary
Template:Pbspoiler Michael, Lincoln, Abruzzi, T-Bag, C-Note, Haywire, Sucre, and Tweener have made it outside of Fox River. The convicts make their way to a van at an old mill. Michael breaks the van's lights so the patrols will not see them. Abruzzi asks Haywire to get the car keys, which are supposedly in a trash can nearby. He then takes the keys out from his pocket, hands them to Lincoln, and they proceed to drive off, leaving Haywire standing there alone. In the van, Abruzzi pulls a gun out from under his seat, but T-Bag moves his hand under his shirt to reveal handcuffs that he had stolen from a guard earlier. T-Bag then handcuffs himself to Michael, ensuring that John cannot shoot him, as he needs Michael to find Fibonaci. Before John can react, T-Bag swallows the key to the handcuffs. Michael and John then warn him of the lengths they will go to get back the key, even gutting it from his body.
Back at Fox River, Pope discovers that the infirmary door was left open, as it showed no sign of being forced or lock-picked. After the orderly tells him that nurse Katie or Dr. Sara Tancredi were the last to leave, Pope suspects one of them of leaving the door open. He questions Dr. Tancredi’s co-worker, nurse Katie, about why the door was unlocked. After Pope threatens her with accessory, Katie reluctantly divulges that "Sara... had a thing for Scofield". Two miles from the airfield, the van gets stuck in a mud puddle, forcing the prisoners to pile out of the van and make their way towards the airstrip. Michael tells Tweener to leave them, since he has fulfilled his promise of getting Tweener out of the prison.
The group find their way to a barn. When Michael and T-Bag arrive, Lincoln forces the cuffed T-Bag onto the head of a car. Sucre grabs a pair of rusty garden shears, struggling to break the handcuffs. This attempt fails, and T-Bag taunts them saying "Guess it was just meant to be, hey now fellas?" Behind him, John raises an axe over his head and sinks the blade into T-Bag's wrist. He screams wildly. T-Bag shakes on the ground, his severed hand lying close to his face. The others, stunned, ditch T-Bag in the barn when they hear a farmer coming with his shotgun.
After Tweener is forced to strike out on his own, he runs through the forest until he comes to a road block. He notices a horse trailer and climbs into the back unseen. The road clears, and the truck is headed for St. Louis. Meanwhile, Haywire has taken a bike from a girl as she plays with it in her garage; he rides it down an empty road into the night. T-Bag stumbles through the woods, attempting to follow the others to the airstrip.
The police arrive at Dr. Sara Tancredi's apartment with an emergency entrance warrant. They find her lying on the couch and immediately report "...possible overdose. Likely DOA". Vice President Reynolds is inducted as the next President, after President Richard Mills dies of a "cardiac arrest". Reynolds was involved in poisoning him. Veronica arrives at Blackfoot, Montana. She sneaks into the mansion and finds Terrence Steadman dozing in an armchair. She confronts him.
Meanwhile, the police are hot on the prisoners' trail, and as they make it to the airstrip, the escape plane takes off. Sucre asks Michael "What do we do now?" and Michael firmly says, "We Run." The season ends with the posse running through a field, with police officers close behind them on foot and in the air.
