Complete story — includes the ending
Van Gogh is revealed to be the one shot by A&W, having become skeptical of Michael's involvement in Gaines' murder. Van Gogh gives up Mike's location to Sara before dying. As Jacob works to brainwash Mike, Michael gathers his allies, including Blue Hawaii (the Elvis impersonator who Michael contacted in Yemen), to bring down Jacob. A wounded Lincoln escapes the hospital and ensures Luca's arrest by the FBI. Michael enacts a plan where he lures Jacob and A&W to a warehouse to recreate Gaines' murder and prove Jacob's involvement. During the attempt, Whip is shot by A&W and dies before T-Bag kills her and is arrested. Michael succeeds in proving Jacob's involvement and both are arrested. At the same time, Lincoln and Sara rescue Mike and capture Theroux. With the evidence planted by Michael and Theroux's testimony, Michael is exonerated and his identity as Michael Scofield is restored. He refuses an offer to join the CIA and returns to a normal life with Sara and Mike. Jacob is sent to Fox River State Penitentiary, where he ends up with T-Bag as his cellmate, as requested by Michael. The other inmates cheer T-Bag on as he attacks Jacob.
