Revision as of 19:53, 22 November 2006
Template:Prison Break character Theodore "T-Bag" Bagwell, played by Robert Knepper, is a fictional character from the Fox television series Prison Break.
Theodore Bagwell was born of both incest and rape; his father had sexually assaulted his Down syndrome-afflicted sister, who later gave birth to Theodore. Ever since he was young, Bagwell was constantly in and out of jail, often for vandalism and torturing animals. While in fourth grade, he attempted to set his teacher's house on fire and was sentenced to juvenile hall. During this time, he became a member of the Alliance for Purity, a fictional white supremacist group. As an adult, Bagwell started committing more serious crimes such as battery, assault, attempted murder, murder, rape, and kidnapping. He is bisexual and has sexual interests ranging from young teenagers to adults.
For a time, Bagwell eluded the authorities and pursued a relationship with a single mother named Susan Hollander, who had two children of her own from a previous marriage. This was shown as one of the flashback stories featured in "Brother's Keeper." Upon seeing that he was a wanted murderer and rapist from America's Most Wanted, she notified the police. Bagwell was sentenced to life in prison for six counts each of kidnapping, rape and murder at Donaldson Prison in Alabama.
T-Bag quickly became the leader of the Alliance for Purity inside the prison, and under his leadership the gang became so powerful inside the prison that the warden disbanded it and sent T-Bag to Fox River. Upon seeing that there were no Alliance for Purity members at Fox River, he started a new chapter of the gang; its growth granted him significant influence within the prison. He has no qualms about seeking sexual gratification from other inmates, often preying upon younger men.
In the episode "Brother's Keeper," on advice from her therapist, Susan visited T-Bag once again in prison, telling him she felt betrayed. T-Bag responded, "You think you’re the only one who feels betrayed? I loved you, Susan. Real love. For the first time in my life. And then to have you do me like that, to just throw me to the dogs, toss me out the back door like bath water." He claimed that he had tried changing for her, but once he was back in prison, he reverted back to his old ways. "You know, some day, I’m gonna get out of here. And don’t think I won’t remember what your front steps look like, Susan."

T- burial site using his self-promoted "photographic memory", the escapees pretended to be an electrical repair crew and gained access to the house now built over it.

When Michael entered the house to check on T-Bag's situation with the home owner, he found them both missing. Alarmed, he found her in the master bedroom. A cop was seen approaching the house, suggesting that she called the police. T-Bag promptly took her hostage with a hammer to her throat.
It turned out, however, that the cop was actually the daughter of the home owner. She was also subdued, and both women were tied up, despite C-Note's disapproval. The escapees then proceeded to continue digging, while also watching Fox News coverage of the escape. T-Bag used his "disability" to get out of digging. When the money was found, he expressed interest in going to Thailand and getting a hand transplant, since the reattachment was failing. Along with his fellow escapees, he found himself held hostage when Sucre turns on them towards the end of the episode, "Buried."

Meanwhile, Geary had betrayed Bellick and left with the money, spending it on a high class hotel room, complete with hookers. Little did Geary know, T-Bag had left a tracking device inside the bag. T-Bag easily found Geary, who tried to make a deal with the escaped convict. Unfortunately for him, T-Bag ignored his pleas and instead killed him by apparently bashing his head in with a broken wine bottle before indulging himself on Geary's room service.
