Prison Break 3X8: Bang & Burn

There isn't anywhere that can be worse than Sona, is there? Where the hell could Michael end up that's worse than this?

So we've decided 4 days, be damned. The bald guy has decided that isn't soon enough and wants to implement Bang & Burn. Susan strongly cautions him against it, as they don't have enough time to pull it all together, but he tells her he pays her to be an operative, not to advise him.

On the inside, Whistler knows they are coming to break him out (in spectacular fashion) at 5pm that afternoon, but Michael (nor Lechero for that matter) does not. Lechero brings them down into some hidden underground tunnels telling Michael that he's an engineer and can dig them out. Michael says he probably can, but he needs 2 or 3 days. And some support beams to keep the whole thing from caving in on them while dig. Oh, right, and Susan has instructed Whistler to kill Michael.

Meanwhile, Michael sends a message to Lincoln via basketball kid's dad that something bad is about to happen. And is it ever. He, Sucre and Whistler's girlfriend (who, by the way, just found out he has a second apartment and second identity) are attacked by two members of the company, but they both end up dead, are our guys are fine.

At 5pm, a helicopter armed with machine gun guys, flies over the prison and starts shooting at everything in it's path. Whistler has managed to get to the roof and is jumping up and down trying to grab hold. As soon as he does, Michael catches up with him and jumps on him. The two dangle for an uncomfortable amount of time on this helicopter while being shot at.

Eventually, Whistler can't hold on anymore and he and Michael both plummet back to the roof. The helicopter takes off as the plan is aborted. The guards storm inside and the inmates all take their positions, kneeling on the ground. Some head guy shows up and drags Michael up. He claims since Michael has been here, there have been two attempted escapes. Michael denies that it's him, but the guy punches him and claims he's being transferred out of Sona. To go where?

Elsewhere, Mahone is supposed to testify, but he's a hot withdrawing mess. He begs Lang to get him some drugs, but she takes too long to get back with them and he needs to testify as is. And it doesn't go well. He's being shipped back to Sona.

Also, I really want some backstory on the basketball kid. What is he doing here? Did he get framed? Is he talking the blame for someone? What is happening here?
