They killed hottie tank-top, high heel wearing, red-haired, nice creamy skin and lovely breasted secretary/agent girl.

I am. Sad.



Good episode, though I saw Self's turncoat coming between the episode's title and the preview saying a turn we won't expect.

For that alone, Self should die!

So he's played Michael and Co. from the start? Bastard! Still, a little sloppy for Michael not to check those papers when Self handed them to him.

Good episode. I wonder where they go from here. I guess Self will now start killing all the Company's Agents, or sell Scylla to the highest bidding terrorist group/Knight Rider baddies of the week.

Excellent. Self wasn't the one I would have pegged as the turncoat, but he certainly was a less cliched choice than the other options (his boss and his redheaded partner). That twist certainly explains why he was peeved that Red wasted the Chinese guy - he was the guy Self was going to sell Scylla to.

Given the ratings, this is the last season, but that's fine with me. This feels like a story that's just a dozen episodes or so from a final wrap-up. I have no idea what they could do with a fifth season that would be worthwhile. Let's have that final mano-a-mano between Michael and T-Bag, and go out in high style.

Left standing at the end of the final episode, pretty obviously: Mikey, Linc, Sucre, Sarah. If they want to be radical, kill Mike in the final episode.

Still, a little sloppy for Michael not to check those papers when Self handed them to him.

And sloppy of Self not to fake up some authentic-looking papers. It's not like they'd have to hold up for longer than it would take for him to get out of the parking lot.

Voted Excellent as well. Kept me on the edge of my seat throughout the hour. Outsmarting the General and then being outsmarted by Self. I didn't think he had it in him to be honest. I wonder if he's going to kill Theodore. If I were Self, I wouldn't be so smug. Not only will Michael and Co be after him, but Gretchen and probably the General too. He's not clear yet.

I voted good. Almost voted excellent but this show has set itself some high standards.

Will miss the hottie red-headed agent/ secretary like I haven't missed a tv character since Cordy left Angel. BURN IN HELL SELF, BURN IN HELL! I actually would have preferred it if she had killed Self and not just for pervy reasons. But I suppose Gretchen has the manipulative sexy female role filled.

Oh and loved T-Bag's face when Self killed her. I can actually see him avenging her.

What will the boys do next and how will they get out of this one? I look forward to finding out next and I'm glad that the mid-season break isn't coming up just yet. But I'm definitely in the 'end the show this season' camp. It's been a great season but the show has run it course and I'd rather they ended on that high than after another weak one like season 3.
