[edit] Summary
After Michael is bandaged up in the infirmary (after the two smallest toes on his left foot were cut off) he meets with Veronica Donovan to talk about Lincoln Burrows' exoneration. While painting a room, Michael hides a cell phone in a small power box in the wall. Sucre sees this and starts to imagine if he could use it whenever he wanted. However, Lincoln tells a guard that Sucre has a cellphone in his possession. When Sucre is asked about the phone from a guard, he denies it, even to the point of losing his conjugals. This proves to Michael that his cellmate can hold a secret.
However, Sucre bargains with Michael for use of the phone, until Michael reveals that it is just a replica carved out of soap. Michael then approaches a dismayed Sucre with the breakout plan. Sucre doesn't like the plan because he says he can get out in 16 months and Maricruz, his fiancee, will wait for him.
Meanwhile Veronica Donovan meets with Leticia, the girlfriend of a late friend of Lincoln's, for some information about the Lincoln Burrows case. Leticia is skeptical and thinks Veronica is working against her. Agent Paul Kellerman, from the secret service, later visits Veronica. Veronica is having difficulties meeting her fiance, Sebastian, for a meal. Sebastian is disappointed and is getting tired of Veronica being unsure of their impending wedding. Philly Falzone meets with John Abruzzi in the meeting room to try to get Fibonacci's name. Abruzzi disappoints him and recommends trying a different method of getting it.
Sucre requests a cell transfer so he won't have to be caught trying to break out. Abruzzi tries to make amends with Michael by beating up T-Bag. Lincoln Burrows talks with his son L.J. to try to inspire him. He agrees to witness his dad die. Michael's new cell mate, "Haywire", joins him in his cell.
Michael plans to dig in his cell while his cell mate is sleeping, however, "Haywire" has a medical condition which means he does not sleep at all.
