MichaelFind out who is trying to bury him
MichaelPreparation will only take you so far. After that you got to take a few leaps of faith.
MichaelWe're not breaking out of a Jamba Juice, gentlemen.
Michael[to T-Bag] If you want to sing, then sing.
MichaelThe man you're talking about died the moment I stepped inside these walls.
MichaelI put my blood into this. [starts punching the wall frantically]
Michael[holding a shank to the Warden] I'm breaking out, and you're going to make sure my brother goes with me.
Michael[to T-bag walking on the street] Hey Pretty!
MichaelIf anything happens I love you both.
MichaelYou're mad because someone took a book from you? This is what they took from me. So let's be clear. This is what matters to me. Not you and not your book.
MichaelWell... if you're watching this, I'm glad. Because it means you're safe. And that's all I ever wanted. I wish I could be there with you, but, as you probably know now, I wouldn't have had much time anyway. So... I made my choice and... I don't regret it. Anyway... not that long from now, there's gonna be another little Scofield running around. And Linc, I want you to promise me, no matter what, they're gonna grow up knowing their uncle is never far away. And Sara, I want you to promise me that you're gonna keep an eye on Linc, as you may have noticed his tendency to get in trouble. You know...we spend so much of our lives not saying the things we wanna say, the things we should say, we speak in code and we send little messages... origami... so now... plainly... simply... I want to say that I love you both... very much. And I want you to promise me that you're gonna tell my child... that you're gonna tell my child... how much they're loved every day. And remind them how lucky they are to be free. Because we are. We're free now... finally! We're free!
MichaelMy name is Michael Scofield, and I'm a fugitive. Three weeks ago, I was in a Panamanian prison. While I was there, I was approached by The Company. The Company is a corrupt organization involved in all levels of industry and government. They gave me two options: break one of their men, James Whistler, out of that prison or else they would kill the only woman I ever loved, Dr. Sara Tancredi. I held up my end of the deal, and I broke Whistler out. But The Company... They killed Sara anyway. I don't know why The Company wanted James Whistler out of prison, but I've tracked him here to Los Angeles. He's with another Company agent I know only as Gretchen. The same agent who murdered Sara. This ends today. I came here seeking justice. The justice I now know the system cannot provide. So, if you're reading this letter, you'll know I died avenging Sara's death.
Most guys, you know, for the first time, they start with something small-- mom, girlfriend's initials, something like that. Not you. You got a full set of sleeves, all in a couple of months. Takes guys a few years to get the ink you got.
MichaelI don't have a few years.
Michael[referring to the vault] I'm not playing games. Open it.
Sir, you have a half a million dollars cash in your bag, don't you think it would be better... [Sound of police sirens gets louder]
[Michael fires his gun at the ceiling]
