Prison Break: The Final Break is the first and only special 90-minute movie of Prison Break. In this movie, Michael Scofield appears to die. On television, this aired as two episodic parts, The Old Ball and Chain and Free.

Sypnosis

Michael, Lincoln, Sucre, Sara Scofield and Co. may have removed the thorn in their side, the Company, but happiness is short-lived. The two-hour action spectacular begins with a trip down the aisle as Michael and a heavily pregnant Sara tie the knot. As ever, Lady Luck holds the lovebirds in disregard, and the newlyweds have no time to enjoy the delights of marital bliss. Michael is forced to cancel any honeymoon plans when Sara is arrested for the murder of Christina Scofield and, without so much as a trial, sent to Miami-Dade Women's Prison, where the Doc is reunited with Gretchen Morgan.

Meanwhile, General Krantz isn't adapting to his abode, Miami-Dade Men's Prison, but his mood soon brightens when he finds out about Sara's predicament. Krantz decides to while his hours of incarceration by plotting her demise, putting a mark on head for the princely sum of $100,000. Word soon reaches Miami-Dade Women's Prison, and a vulnerable Sara must fight for survival.

Michael, Lincoln, Sucre, and Mahone team up to break Sara out of prison. In the process, Michael is forced to stay behind and seemingly faces electrocution so that Sara can escape safely.

Trivia

General

  • The story follows-up all the events of Episode 22
  • The movie aired on May 27 2009 in the United Kingdom and the United States.
  • Sara is depicted wielding a gun on the cover but she never uses one in the movie.
  • Christina Scofield, Michael Scofield and Sara Scofield appear in archive footage from the episode, Killing Your Number.
  • According to the CO at the Women's Facility, 6 CO's of Fox River lost their job, however only Roy Geary and Brad Bellick were only shown on-screen.
    • Coincidentally enough, neither CO from Prison Break appeared in Breakout Kings, although it could be that the driver's guard appeared in episode 3.
    • She probably meant in addition to those two as Roy Geary lost his due to shaking down cons and Bellick for corruption.
  • Alice Simms recalls the time Michael had two toes chopped off by John Abruzzi's gang, which occurred during the episode "Allen".
  • After receiving a beating from the COs, Sara plays it off to the doctor by saying she just 'caught an elbow playing basketball". This is the same line that Michael used on Sara herself during the episode "Cute Poison" after he deliberately injured himself in order to get rid of Haywire as his cellmate.
  • This marks the only time that none of T-Bag's victims is indirectly used as a key in order to escape from prison, during the fact that T-Bag killed nobody.
  • The lawyer states there is no way to prove the woman Sara killed was Christina Scofield. A simple DNA test would prove beyond doubt she was related to Michael. A simple statement from Michael saying she fired in defence of his life would also exonerate her.
  • Like the rest of the show before it, the movie is set in 2005. However, in Season 5, Michael suggests that it all took place just before he faked his death, which happened in 2010.
