New escape plans bring more problems to the group in the upcoming episode of "Prison Break" season 5.
Titled "Phaecia," next week's episode will see if Michael (Wentworth Miller) and his friends can escape Yemen. According to the official synopsis, Michael, Lincoln (Dominic Purcell) and the rest of the Ogygia gang attempt to get out of jail. While on their way to another location, they find themselves racing through the desert from Cyclops (Amin El Gamal). A&W (Marina Benedict) and Van Gogh (Steve Mouzakis) later question their roles when their pursuit of the group unexpectedly leads them to Graceland.
FOX has unveiled a new promo for the episode and it hints that Michael, Lincoln, and the gang have successfully escaped from jail. Their next plan is to leave Yemen alive, but they become the target of Cyclops in the middle of the desert. The escapees appear to be riding two vehicles as an action-packed chase is shown. Michael holds a pair of binoculars to keep a close eye on the enemies.
At some point in the teaser, someone attacks three of the escapees. Two associates of Poseidon are watching Michael's every move, which means he is still not safe. A&W and Van Gogh deploy a drone and hits Michael's location with a powerful missile.
The previous episode left off with C-Note (Rockmond Dunbar) and several refugees getting out of war-torn Yemen. Unfortunately, his friends Michael and Lincoln were left behind because they could not make it to the airplane on time. Speaking with The Hollywood Reporter, Dunbar said it was probably the hardest decision his character ever made.
"It's heartbreaking and scary at the same time, but it's exciting," he said. "You always have those twists and turns in 'Prison Break.' How are they going to get out of this? How are they going to get out of that? You turn the corner, and it's a sunny and beautiful day — and then it's absolute hell. How are they going to get out of this hell?"
The fifth season of "Prison Break" airs every Tuesday at 9 p.m. EDT on FOX.
