Prison Beak 1X19: The Key

Things really feel like they are heating up now. We're finally getting teeny tiny bits of info. But I need more!

So, Kellerman shows up after the van flip to finish the job on Lincoln. However, a 'passerby' shows up with all the intention to help. Kellerman plans to shoot him, but he's knocked out by the guy first. Then, he drags a barely conscious Lincoln to his car and takes off.

Turns out, passerby is actual Lincoln's dad. Apparently, he used to work for this company and when he got out, they went after his son as a way to draw him out. (To kill him because of what he knows? I'm not sure). Either way, Kellerman and the police show up. Kellerman was planning to shoot Lincoln so he ends up surrendering to the cop, and is brought back to prison.

Michael has worked out a new plan, but now they won't be popping up in the infirmary, but just outside. Meaning, Michael is going to need a key to get in. First, he kisses Tancredi and I assumed he was going to try to steal her key while doing that. Didn't happen. Then he calls up his wife and asks her to do it. She refuses. Finally, he asks Rat Boy and he says okay, but only if Michael kills Avocado for him, which Michael refuses to do.

However, Michael's wife, after hearing how distressed he was, ends up meeting with Tancredi and stealing her keys anyway. She gives them to Michael during a visitation, and he's able to copy the key. But, since the doctor lost her keys, she ends up having the locks changed, so this was all for naught. Also, Tancredi is totally in on this ruse. I don't know what that's going to do for their relationship going forward, but right now, it's not great.

Rat Boy, who is tired of being constantly raped by Avocado, finally slices his dick off (I think that's what happened anyway). He knows that once Avocado is out of the infirmary he's going to kill him. Michael seems to take pity on him and lets him in on the plan. Desperate to get away from Avocado, Rat Boy runs to Bellick and tells him about the planned escape. I have no idea if this is part of Michael's plan, or Rat Boy is off on his own here. Either way, Bellick busts up the floor in the CO room and discovers the truth.

In addition to all this happening, Abruzzi is back. He's made his peace with god now, tells Michael he's still in and calls a truce with Pocket Boy. However, Pocket Boy isn't so willing to let it go and plans to kill him. C-Note stops him by reminding him we need his plane. However, we also find out that Abruzzi is the one who's instructing Nick to keeps eyes on Veronica. How did that play out, I wonder?
