One of the things that came from my "K-Ville" junket was a chance to speak with two of the stars of "Prison Break" on the red carpet. (The two shows are sharing Monday nights on FOX).

 

And they dished out some spoilers.

 

First, here's Dominic Purcell, who plays Lincoln. The brackets are my commentary:

 

"Season three is the best season so far. [I can't wait for the day when a star says something like, "Yeah, we're really phoning it in this season."] We're back to what we do best, which is the whole prison thing. It's a lawless prison, which if you've seen "Midnight Express" is like this crazed environment. There's no structure within the prison walls.

 

You have Panamanian drug lords. You have Colombian drug lords. Mass murderers. Rapists. There are no roles. You have Scofield having to deal with all of that. And then you have Mahone and he's losing his mind because he doesn't have any pills. And you have Bellick, who's wearing a diaper in the first six episodes. [OK, I know I wasn't the only one freaked the hell out at the sight of that last season.] And theyn you've got T-Bag, doing his thing to survive. [T-Bag doing his thing: again, a scary concept]

 

It makes (Fox River) look like a five-star resort. It's just really cool. It's very intense, dramatic. It's highly entertaining. Again, I think it's our best season.

 

This season Lincoln's on the outside, obviously. I'm not trying to break my brother out in an elaborate way like he did me. I'm trying to do it through legitimate means. Whilst trying to break him out and trying to get him out legitimately, Lincoln's being blackmailed by a new character called Susan B., who has ties to the Company. ... She says to him that your brother needs to get out of prison within a week and get another guy out that we need out. If Michael doesn't break this other guy out, Sara and L.J. are going to die. At this point, she has L.J. Lincoln can't tell Michael this,  because Michael'll freak out. As the season progresses, there's some kind of massive wedge between the two brothers. So there's a bit of hostility and animosity. I think Lincoln and Michael are going to go separate ways. Of course, they'll come back -- maybe."

 

Dominic also said, "Lincoln's going to get laid twice." He then semi-backed off on the statement to say that he'd be trying. Apparently, both the new female characters, Susan B. Anthony and  a character played by Danay Garcia, may get a taste of some Linc lovin'. 

 

Amaury Nolasco, who plays Sucre, was also present. But sadly he was not as free with the spoilers as Dominic.

 

He did say, "We're pushing the envelope. The writers are doing a phenomenal job." He even said the envelope's being pushed to the point where it's not even clear if some of the end product will be allowed on TV. "I have to say it's a no-man's world where we are going. It's a prison where guards aren't even allowed, so that tells you a little about what's going to happen. It's interesting in that respect."

 

About poor kidnapped Maricruz, Amaury says, "There are a lot of loose ends we're going to eventually come together with and stories we're going to have to come to an understanding or leave them hanging a little longer. That's one of the stories. Sucre's doing the search for his girl and we'll see in the first few episodes what will happen with that."

 

And finally, he closed by saying, "What I love about the show is it keeps reinventing itself every season into something different. It takes people for a ride."

 

So I'm pretty psyched for Season 3. How about you?
