Plot[]
As ISIL takes over Sana'a, Yemen, the guards flee Ogygia Prison.
Michael, Whip, Ja, and Abu Ramal break out of solitary, and meet up with Sid. Cross plans to use Ramal as a bargaining chip with ISIL and attempts to break into solitary. With Ramal's help, they are able to escape the cells just as Cross and the rallied prisoners enter. Cross shoots one of the inmates, who drops a shiv from his pocket. Sid runs out of the cell and grabs it, stabbing Cross in the chest.
Together, they all escape Ogygia as ISIL closes in. Michael fights with Ja and kicks him off of the escape team but it is revealed to be a ruse so that Ja can reach the rendezvous point first and retrieve guns from under the workbench. However, ISIL captures Ja and the rest of the escape team as Jamal turns on them.
Meanwhile, Lincoln Burrows attempts to find Michael in Ogygia, but cannot.
At the rendezvous point, Ramal plans on beheading Michael in front of the world, but Lincoln appears, grabbing the turret of a gun on a vehicle.
Ramal is killed by Whip in the brief fight. Lincoln, Michael, Whip, Ja, and Sid watch a news report on Ramal's murder and learn that ISIL is now declaring war on the five of them in revenge.
Theodore "T-Bag" Bagwell meets with Paul Kellerman to learn about Poseidon, however A&W and Van Gogh show up and murder Kellerman. T-Bag pursues them and pulling out his cell phone to take photos, spots Jacob Anton Ness attending a meeting with the two of them.
