Abruzzi's demotion in the prison hierachy puts the entire escape plan at risk. Michael finds himself in the uneviable position of trying to protect T-Bag's new "fish" and facing the threat of T-Bag exposing the plan to the guards. The inmates dig themselves into a hole.



Sara: What did you treat him for?
Dr. Brighton: Well Michael suffered from a couple of things. One was a condition called low latent inhibition.
Sara: Sorry, I’m not familiar with the term.
Dr. Brighton: Well, people who suffer from low latent inhibition see every day things just like you or I do, like this lamp for instance. But where we just process the image of a lamp, they process everything. The stem, the bulb, the bolts, even the washers inside. Their brains are more open to incoming stimuli in the surrounding environment. Other people’s brains – your’s and mine – shut out the same information. We have to do it, in order to keep our sanity. If someone with a low IQ has low latent inhibition, it almost always results in metal illness. But, if someone has a high IQ, it almost always results in creative genius.
Sara: Do you think Michael’s a genius?
Dr. Brighton: Well, I think that word’s been derogated in the media these days, but in the classic sense of the word, yes I do.
Sara: You said there was something else you treated him for?
Dr. Brighton: He came to me with absolutely no sense of self-worth. The loss of both parents very often does that to a child. But, with the low latent inhibition, something interesting happened to Michael. He became very attune to all the suffering around him. He couldn’t shut it out. He became a rescuer. One of those people who are more concerned with other people’s welfare than their own.
Sara: I didn’t know all this about him.
Dr. Brighton: Then maybe you don’t know Michael Scofield.
Sara: Yeah...

Sara: I, uh…uh, just wanted you to know that if you’re lookin’ for someone to talk to in here, you’re not alone. It’s part of my job to counsel inmates and help them with their problems.
Michael: I think I have things pretty well figured out.
Sara: I sort of backed into some information about you. I hope you don’t mind. But you have to understand that there’s a reason I became a doctor. It’s in my nature to want to help. From what I understand, it’s in your nature too.
