All language subtitles for Prison Break - S01E14 - The Rat

My name is Michael Scofield.

My brother is facing the electric chair,

Framed for a crime he didn't commit.

What is it about this case

That the Secret Service
is so interested in?

The man killed the vice
president's brother.

After his appeals were exhausted,

I knew there was only
one way to get him out.

This is the police.

Put down your weapon!

Michael.

I'm getting you out of here.

It's impossible.

Not if you designed the place, it isn't.

Have you seen the blueprints?

Better than that.

I've got them on me.

I've been at Fox River
nearly a month now.

In that time, I've assembled a group

That has all the resources
we need to not only break out,

But to stay out.

I'm Michael, by the way. Dr. Tancr...

Tancredi like the governor?

While we dig on the inside,

Our lawyer searches for
the truth on the outside.

I have information

That will lead to the
exoneration of Lincoln Burrows.

Somebody on the inside claims
they can exonerate Lincoln.

Someone's been talking.

Anyone that's a threat is expendable.

They're ready for you,
Madam Vice President.

24 hours from now, my
brother is scheduled to die,

But the way I see it, 24 hours from now,

We'll be out of the country.

It's there.

It can't be done.

We're not getting out of here.

Unfortunately, Pretty,

That ain't an option.

You are gonna get us out of here.

Unless you're gonna use your shank

To take out the pipe, put it away.

I'll put it in your neck,
you don't get us out of here.

Bring it down a peg, T-Bag.

Shut your mouth!

Remember, Pretty, I am serving

Life plus one.

So if I get busted for attempted escape,

I'm gonna throw in a
homicide, no problem.

That's like a parking ticket to me.

You okay?

Felt sick again.

Yeah, you took your I.V.S out.

Yeah, I didn't want to
throw up on the floor,

So I just came to the drain.

Just let me walk this off. I'll be fine.

Lincoln, there is no
reason for you to be here

If your I.V. Isn't in.

Everything all right in here?

It's fine.

Why isn't he cuffed to the table?

What's he gonna do, steal a cotton ball?

Can't have him walking around, Doc.

You know that.

What was that?

Put your wrist out.

You gonna turn this into something?

I'm not gonna say it again.

Put your wrist out.

Hey, Keith, come check this out!

Keith?

AKRE We got to go. Now.

Give me the rope.

Give me the rope now!

Tie that off.

Okay, I'm down.

We got to go, Michael.

It's done. Let's go.

Did it break off or
did someone break it?

I don't know.

Here's the other half.

Hey, hey.

What's up, Brad?

Heading over to Sharkey's.

It's two-Fer Tuesday.

Want to hoist a few?

Man, I'd love to, but my
wife is cooking dinner,

And I told her I'd be home.

Wuss.

Anybody else?

Suit yourselves.

Hey, none of the Sheetrock

In front of the break
room's been touched.

Ah, the P.I.'S letting it dry out.

Still?

Westmoreland!

I'm caught on something.

Come on! Come on! Come on! Come on!

Stay there. Stay down there.

Why was this door locked?

Wasn't locked, boss.

The fan kept pushing it open,

So we just had to wedge it closed.

You've been in here all
night not doing a damn thing.

Room is still wet, boss.
Nothing we could do.

It's not like

We were having a picnic.

Bunch of shiftless, no-Good convicts.

You got something to say, Scofield?

Wrap it up.

And all four of you, get
your asses back to the block.

Hey.

Get these nitwits
back to the cell block.

Four...?!

You seem to be one light.

Right here, boss.

Oh, no.

No way!

I should be halfway to
seeing my family right now!

Let's go.

Now!

Keep it moving.

You think he knows?

Lincoln.

I'm here with Henry
Pope, who is the warden

Of Fox River Penitentiary, where
Lincoln Burrows is scheduled

To die by electrocution
at 12:01 a.M. Tomorrow.

Warden Pope, can you tell me

What's going to happen
in the next few hours?

There are strict Department
of Corrections guidelines

That govern every
aspect of an execution.

Measures taken to make
sure that the process goes

As smoothly as possible.

Such as?

The correctional officers
will do a walk-Through.

We'll review the list of witnesses.

The chair will be
checked and re-Checked

To make sure there's no problem.

And Mr. Burrows himself?

Have you spoken with him?

What are his thoughts
in these final hours?

I'd say that's between him and his God.

And maybe the governor.

I understand Burrows' attorneys
are going to request a stay.

I wish them the best of luck.

Does that mean you
believe he's innocent?

It means... I believe in the process,

But I don't relish the prospect
of taking another man's life.

Whether it's just or not,

There's no joy that
lies before us today.

Okay, thank you very much Warden.

And we will be here with
you throughout the night

Watching and waiting to
see if Lincoln Burrows does,

In fact, become only the
13th person to be executed

In the State of Illinois since 1976.

Just so you got one less
thing to worry about,

I want you to know I ain't mad at you.

Thank you.

How long until...

16 hours.

Are his lawyers making any progress?

Is there still a chance with that? No.

There's only one person who
can really stop this execution.

I need to see my brother.

Just to talk, for five minutes.

Yeah. Yeah, I'll try.

Hey.

Um... I'm sorry.

I'm told that you have to
wait until final visitation.

Would you talk to your father for me?

Please?

Believe me, my father knows

Where I stand on the death penalty,

And I'm just as clear on his stance...

Sara, uh, Dr. Tancredi, I'm sorry.

Um...

This isn't about the
morality of the death penalty.

This is...

This is about killing

An innocent man: my brother.

And, surely, your father
can't be in favor of that.

Just talk to Lincoln's
attorneys, just for an hour,

And I swear to God, you'll
be convinced of his innocence.

Michael, I would pick
up the phone right now

If I thought there was any chance

That I could make a difference.

But you have to understand.

I'm the last person in the
world that my father listens to.

He hates what I do, he
hates what I believe in.

And if I'm the one asking
for clemency for your brother,

Your brother won't get it.

Look, if Terrence Steadman
is still alive, Lyle,

Then it can't be Terrence Steadman

Buried in the ground.

Yeah, but a secret informant claims

That Steadman is still alive?

I don't know, Nick, it all
sounds pretty far-Fetched.

You're his clerk, just
get us on the docket.

Nick, you're asking him
to commit political suicide

By granting a stay of execution
to Illinois' most notorious

Death row inmate.

Officially, all we're asking

Is for an exhumation order.

If he grants it, he can order a stay

Until the tests are come in.

An exhumation order?

Well that's better-- Digging
up the vice president's brother.

No way.

Lyle, Lyle, look, we took

Intro to Civ Pro together, remember?

We studied for the bar, day and night,

In that crappy little
apartment of yours,

Talking about how we're
going to make a difference.

Nick, you filed an eleventh hour motion,

And Judge Kessler's docket
is full this afternoon...

Come on, Lyle, everyone
knows you run that courtroom.

You can't adjust things around a bit?

The informant that was killed yesterday?

I was there.

I know firsthand these people will do

Whatever they can to frame Lincoln

For Steadman's murder.

All we're asking is to be heard.

I'll give you 15 minutes
this afternoon-- That's it!

Thank you, thank you!

Thank you. Yeah, you're welcome.

He doesn't even know what happened.

He knows you tried.

Do you think so?

He's your brother; he knows you,

So yes.

I promised I would get him out of here.

You promised a lot of people, Pretty.

Enough, man, all right?

This don't concern you, boy.

You don't get a man's hopes
up like that, and then just...

Back up or I'll beat your
skinny ass into the ground.

And it wouldn't take much to do it.

All right, ladies,

Rec time's over; back on the block!

You owe me a ticket out of here, Pretty.

And I will collect.

I'm really am sorry about your brother.

Thanks.

Look, I know you were
counting on this, so...

Let me worry about my problems.

I know you've got enough
on your mind right now.

For what it's worth, over the years,

I've known a few men
who've sat on that chair,

And as the day gets near,

All you can really do
is pray it goes quick.

Once, about ten years
ago, there was a man

Caught a few sparks,
not enough to do the job.

Had to wait another three weeks

While they reset the whole process.

It may sound crazy, but he said it was

The worst three weeks of his life,

'Cause it not the
lightning that kills you...

It's the wait.

So take solace in the fact

That yother's wait is over.

So if something happens to the chair,

He's got three me weeks?

There's a lot of
protocol in killing a man.

A new death warrant,

Another medical clearance...

A lot can happen in three weeks.

Yo, what the grapes, yo?

Thanks.

What y'all talking about?

Nothing.

Keep it together, come on!

I'm going in.

It's daytime.

I'll hang a sheet.

Do you have any questions about...

What's going to happen tonight?

When I get to eat,

Where I'm supposed to walk,

How it's gonna feel when
they tighten the belts...

Any of that gonna help come midnight?

Some feel it's best to be prepared.

How's Michael?

He's anxious to see you.

Unfortunately, we've been told that

That's not possible
until final visitation.

You've been through this before?

No.

Just so you s, a doctor

Needs to be present,

So, for what it's worth,
I'll be there tonight.

Can I ask a favor?

Yeah. What?

When I'm gone, can you...

Will you look out for my brother?

FO

What were you doing back there?

Hmm. So you like doing that, too?

Dipping the fry in a shake?

Hells yeah.

Mmm. Good times. Good times.

So what's going on out there?

Nothing, you know?

Just staying out of trouble.

I meant in terms of any...

"Office gossip" you might have for me.

So check it.

This one fool has been
trying to cop a joint.

So I'll keep ear hustling for that.

We had an agreement.

You were supposed to bird-Dog
Scofield and get back to me.

I been trying, man, I've
been working the corners.

Trust me. I ain't got nothing.

I seen you talking to him
in the yard and the geezer.

Yeah, I talked to Scofield
but he ain't told me nothing.

Then it's a hundred bucks
for the burger and fries.

Boss, you know I ain't got no money.

Then you better start selling your ass.

A hundred bucks by the end of
this shift, or there's gonna be

A bidding war to see who
gets you as their new cellie.

Beat it.

In the yard today, I did
hear Scofield say something.

And?

He said if something
goes wrong with the chair,

His brother gets three
more weeks to live.

We're squared. Get out of here

How's it going in here?

Ready for liftoff. Chair's working?

Yeah. Why?

Run a test. Already did.

The electrical contractor signed off

On the diagnostic this morning.

We're good to go. Run it again.

Why?

Run it.

Ain't working.

Son of a bitch.

I don't know what could have happened.

So once they redo all the paperwork,

Your brother gets three more weeks.

Right. So we got time.

Not a lot, but some.

Are we still going
through the infirmary?

If I corrode that pipe again,
they'll know something's up.

You got another way?

Right now, I'm just worried
about getting through tonight.

Careful, there's 2,000 volts
running through that thing.

Oh, God.

Give me the strength to walk...

Give the strength to walk...
give me the strength...

Came in here...

Give me the strength to
walk... You came in here.

Give me the strength...
give me the strength...

I want to see my brother.

When we move you to Final Visitation.

When's that?

Right after we do this.

Just...

It's your last day, Linc.

I'd prefer to keep you out
of cuffs as much as possible,

But I need some assurances.

You've always been
straight-Up with me, Stolte.

You have my word.

Your Honor, from the
outset, Mr. Burrows' case

Has been tainted by a conspiracy
characterized by destruction

Of evidence, distortion of the truth,

And witness intimidation.

Again, Judge, I have to object.

These are some serious accusations

With absolutely no proof.

No proof? What have I been
arguing for the past 20 minutes?

You got me.

Judge Kessler,

Mr. Tucci might not appreciate

The weight of what we've just presented,

But surely you must.

As Ms. Donovan stated, a
top video forensic analyst

Has disputed the authenticity
of a surveillance tape

That was the key piece of evidence

In convicting Lincoln Burrows.

That's the tape that
no longer exists, right?

Because your client had it destroyed.

Unless my client is a rusted water pipe

In the County Records office,

I'm afraid you're mistaken.

Judge, Ms. Donovan's apartment
was blown up in an attempt

To silence both her and me.

That was independently corroborated

As a gas leak, Your Honor.

Judge, a month ago,
a Secret Service agent

Named Paul Kellerman visited my office.

I saw Kellerman last night,

When he shot and killed
another agent, Daniel Dan

Right after Hale

Told me that Terrence Steadman was alive

And well.

Your Honor, I'm presenting
to the clerk an affidavit

From the Director

Of the Secret Service agency.

It states that at no time has

There ever been

An agent of that organization

By the name of Paul Kellerman,

Or Daniel Hale. In addition,

There were no other
witnesses to this shooting.

No bullets were found,

No blood, no shell casings.

The only witness to this alleged murder

Is Veronica Donovan,

Lincoln Burrows' ex-Girlfriend.

Now, Your Honor,

I feel for Ms. Donovan.

Save it. I do.

But desperation causes desperate acts.

And that's what we're seeing
here today, Your Honor.

My client,

The Vice President of
the United States...

Judge Kessler...

Do either of you have any
evidence that is admissible?

Even just tangible?

Your claims, if true, are terrifying.

But anything, or
anyone, that could verify

Your story is either
gone, missing or dead.

I know time is of the essence.

I'll reserve judgment for now.

I'll take your arguments
into consideration,

And I'll have a decision
within a few hours.

These little bastards

Are the bane of my
existence, I swear to God.

You get this a lot?

Yeah, they're attracted to the
heat when they're cold, plus,

They got ceylapsible vertebrae
or some deal, so they can

Squeez

And he shorted the wire
just by biting on it?

Not by chewing on the wire alone,

But if the tail touches
metal, it acts as a ground,

And boom, fuse pops.

Along with the rat.

I'll be damned.

So, can you change the fuse?

Yeah, there's another
one right here in the box.

Can do it now?

Right after I notify the State
and fill out the paperwork.

Now, hold up a minute, you two.

Both of you.

We're gonna give more
time to a guy who killed

The Vice President's brother?

This guy's a terrorist.

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Forget about losing our jobs,
we could all face charges.

Only the three of us know.

Real easy to keep it that way.

It's your guys' call.

How much longer?

Six hours.

Open on 40!

Scofield, your brother's
gonna be transported

To Final Visitation soon.

You can meet him there.

You look surprised.

You knew it was scheduled today.

No, I...

You were saying?

They'll be transporting you

To Final Visitation in a minute.

Thanks for keeping your word, Linc.

Linc,

You're gonna have to change into these.

What's that?

At the moment of death,

The body becomes incontinent, so...

It's a diaper?

Yeah.

You need to wear it.

Make me.

It's a good look, huh?

It's, uh, for the electricity.

Hair gets in the way or something.

I did everything I could.

I know you did.

Last time I had my head shaved was

When I was running with Derek.

Remember Derek?

Uh, yeah. Bet me 40 bucks

I wouldn't shave it.

I said, make it 100.

Still owes me.

Have you heard from Veronica?

She's supposed to be coming.

Is there any news on the appeal?

'Cause there could still be a chance...

Stop it. Michael, please.

This thing's gonna happen.

I got to get my head straight.

Let's just share memories,

Swap stories, talk
about the damn weather,

Anything but torturing myself

With the idea of hope.

I can't take it anymore.

All right.

You can't go, LJ.

I don't care.

I have to see him. You
can't go to the prison.

You'll never make it through the gate.

There will be cops everywhere.

Look, you got to wait

Until we get all this
cleared up, all right?

It's the judge's clerk.

Lyle, what do you got?

Yeah.

Thanks, man.

They ruled against us.

Yeah.

I'm going to go and see him.

I'm going to stay here with LJ.

You gonna be okay going alone?

Yeah, I'm going to be fine.

Tell Lincoln...

You know, just, we tried.

Go to the back room. Go!

You're the attorneys
for Lincoln Burrows?

You letting me win, Michael?

No.

Mm-Hmm. Show me your cards.

I'm not going to show you
my cards. Show me your cards.

I'm not going to show you
my cards. Give me your cards.

Gin.

Funny, that.

Three out of five.

How often would you make those for LJ?

Whenever I had him on weekends.

Maybe the only decent
thing I ever did for him.

No.

You were there for him.

Not enough.

I don't know how they can
stomach stuff before...

We lost the appeal.

Your friend Sara came by, though.

Did she hear you out?

She did. Is she going
to talk to her father?

I sure as hell hope so.

It doesn't matter any more, guys.

You've done more than enough for me.

That's the most important thing.

I couldn't bring LJ.

I know.

I can get him on the phone, though.

What do I say?

LJ... it's your dad.

Hey, Dad.

LJ.

So, this is it.

Yeah.

I am...

I want you to, uh...

Stick with Veronica and
Nick and clear your name.

You'll be all right.

I wish I could be there, Dad.

Me, too.

'Cause there's something
I want to tell you.

What's that?

I had a dream last night.

You and me were working
on a house, pounding nails.

And in the dream...

It felt like we were older.

It was so clear.

The whole dream.

And when I woke...

I knew that today wasn't
going to be the end.

That...

That we'll see each other again, Dad.

I know it.

I love you, Dad.

Those numbers support Burrows' claim

About Terrence Steadman's
pending indictment.

Now, with the related murders,

And then the confidential informant,

I just wanted to make sure

That you were fully aware
of the circumstances.

I'm fully acquainted with
the Burrows case, Sara,

But I never heard about any of this.

Well, I hadn't either

Until I spoke with Burrows'
attorneys this afternoon.

And I understand that
most of this evidence

Is technically
considered circumstantial,

But I think you'll agree
it's hard to ignore.

How did you get involved with all this?

These men are my patients.

It's my job advocate for them.

Come on, Sara, how many of these guys

Say that they are innocent?

80, 90 percent?

I mean, it's not like you're asking me

For a new bike here, kid.

Being tough on crime,
capital punishment--

It's all part of a
philosophy that I believe in.

Part of a philosophy that I
campaigned on, was elected for.

I have to go back to Fox River.

I have to be there

When they kill this man.

The least you could
do is review his case.

And, Dad, if it helps...

Pretend it didn't come from me.

I've never given a damn about
what people thought of me.

Never.

The last couple of days...

I gotta admit, you know...

Lee Harvey Oswald,

John Wilkes Booth...

Lincoln Burrows.

I'm gonna go down in
history with these freaks.

Bitch of it all is I didn't do it.

I didn't do it!

I didn't do it.

It's time.

Warden!

What is it?

It's the governor.

Yes, Governor.

Okay.

I understand.

The governor has
reviewed your case fully.

He's not granting clemency.

Let's proceed.

You did your country and your party

A great service.

It won't go unnoticed.

Thank you, Madame Vice President.

Thank you, Governor.

Can't go past here.

Once he's in the death chamber,

You'll be escorted to the viewing room.

Can I...

Yeah.

I've loved you since
the first time I saw you.

Uncuff him.

Let's go, son.

I didn't kill that man, Michael.

Swear to me.

I swear to you.

Preparation can only take you so far.

After that, you got to
take a few leaps of faith.

Don't give up on me.

What if something happens, Keith?

You just have a little faith.

Just have a little faith.

How about every Sunday,

We have our own special breakfast?

Just you and me.

Yeah. Give me your hand.

You got to have faith, LJ.

I love you, Dad.

I came in here a man.

Give me the strength to
walk out of here a man.
