Midseason Finale of 'Prison Break' - The Killing Box Sarah Wayne Callies and Paul Edelstein recap Prison Break Season 2 Episode 13, “The Killing Box,” discussing how midseason finales worked in 22-episode network TV and how this episode pivots the story from running to “turning back into the flames,” with Kellerman joining Michael and Lincoln to go after Reynolds as the conspiracy “onion” peels.

S2E7: "Buried" | Guest Lane Garrison | Auditioning For Tweener | Finding Emotional | Early Fame
Lane Garrison aka "Tweener" stops by this episode! Actually twice (tech issues plagued us as Lane graciously took time out of his busy schedule shooting Mayor Of Kingstown. It's a good thing he did because this was his last chance to join us on the show! Sarah Wayne Callies and Paul Adelstein recap Prison Break Season 2, Episode 7 (“Buried”), framing it as a “reality check” where multiple characters confront who they are, as major reversals occur: Mahone kills Tweener after a wrong-address misdirect, Governor Tancredi is found dead in an apparent setup, and Sarah is targeted next, while the gang finds Westmoreland’s money and Sucre’s hostage situation takes an unexpected turn. They share production context (airdate, director Sergio Mimica-Gezzan, writer Seth Hoffman’s first credited TV script, ratings, and contemporary news), then discuss directing prep/production meetings, prop and story logistics (including how the key is staged), and acting challenges around scripted emotional beats and crying on camera. Guest Lane Garrison (Tweener) recounts his path onto the show, five auditions, being expanded from a three-episode role, on-set conditions, early fame pressures, turning down a series-regular offer, and later sobriety, family life, and career perspective.
