The second episode is tense, adrenaline-filled. While the previous episode is about Linc, Sarah, T-bag etc,, here it's more about Michael himself and the current situation he's in. We find out more about Michael's backstory after the events of the last season. The Michael here is somewhat different from the one we know, he's more cold and mischievous than ever. And the way the plot unfolds in the sense that, we didn't follow Michael to prison but rather he's already an established inmate and even planning to escape, which kinda make the audience feel left out. The sense of unfamiliarity we get from Michael is great, it's like audience doesn't know him anymore. The prison environment is somewhat similar to Sona but the atmosphere is much more dreadful. The vast majority of the episode features Linc and C-note trying to track one of Michael's associate with the help Sheba. In this part, there are some intense action sequences that were very enjoyable as a lot is at stake. Overall, I like the Yemeni wars and political unrest in the backdrop of the story. In a more calming aspect of the episode, we see Sarah perplexed with Michael's news as she tries to make meaning of Michael's actions. There is also the return of Kellerman which was surprising but I like it. Overall, I'm hooked up with what I'm watching so far and I like direction the show is taking.
