Season 2 dealt with the resulting manhunt, set against a wider conspiracy.
This storyline introduced a more dangerous kind of villain toPrison Break.
Most of season 1’s villains were sadistic guards and powerful inmates.
One of these is FBI agent Alex Mahone, whose intelligence and problem-solving ability match Michael’s.
Mahone is formidable, but is tripped up by his reliance on drugs and his growing conscience.
Knepper did not rule out the possibility that Mahone could return toPrison Breakat another point.
Most of the originalPrison Breakcharacters appeared in the season 5 reboot, but Mahone’s absence was felt.
Mahone has so many skeletons in his closet that he could even have his own storyline.
Prison Break’s spin-off may bring original characters back.
Prison Break tells the story of two brothers who must unravel a political conspiracy while escaping from one of the most secure places on Earth. When petty criminal Lincoln Burrows (Dominic Purcell) is falsely convicted of murdering the Vice President’s brother, his own brother, Michael Scofield (Wentworth Miller), has himself incarcerated in order to stage a daring prison break using the blueprints of the facility he has tattooed on his body.
A more true crime-focusedPrison Breakis the perfect place for somebody with as much potential as Mahone.
