The first season of the Prison Break premiered on American TV on August 29, 2005 and consisted of 22 episodes. It told the story of Michael Scofield and his attempt to break free his wrongly accused brother Lincoln Burrows from prison. This season chronicles the entire six week long stay of Michael at Fox River State Penitentiary. The season opener was entitled ‘Pilot’ which introduces us to Michael who gets himself incarcerated in Fox River State Penitentiary so as to help his brother Lincoln escape the execution he is condemned to face, for a offense he did not commit. His cellmate Sucre gives him a tour of the jail and Michael manages to join Prison Industries run by Abruzzi. He also meets Sara and tries to seduce her with his charms. The warden of the jail, Henry Pope inquires from Michael if he could make a model of the Taj Mahal for his wife for their anniversary.
The brothers reunite and Michael discloses that the strange tattoo on his body is the blue print of the Fox River State Penitentiary which will help them in planning their escape. When the trouble between the black and white prisoners began to foment, all attempts of Michael to stay neutral prove to be futile. Michael manages to catch hold of an Allen bolt and unscrews the toilet of his cell with its help. As the riots kick off in the jail, T-Bag suspects Michael of killing one of his friends. In order to help Michael see Sara regularly, C-Note gives him a medicine. In the meantime, the friend and attorney of Lincoln comes across some evidence which seems to confirm that it was indeed Lincoln who murdered Terrence Steadman.
The episode ends as Michael is ambushed and tortured by Abruzzi for some information about an informer. Next episode was entitled ‘Cell Test’ where Michael checks out whether his cellmate Sucre, could be relied upon with the secret of escape plan. Though Sucre proves to be reliable, he does not want to be part of this break out plan. On the other hand, T- Bag wants to teach Michael a lesson for his alleged betrayal to white inmates. Abruzzi changes his tactics and starts assisting Michael to get the information about Fibonacci’s location from him.
A woman gets in touch with Veronica, claiming to have information about Steadman’s assassination. Before Veronica could get that information from her, the woman is taken out by Agent Kellerman on Caroline’s orders. The next episode was entitled ‘Cute Poison’ where we see that Michael has a new cellmate, Haywire who starts to unravel the secret behind his tattoos. Sucre joins in the escape plans when he comes to know that his cousin, Hector is hitting on his fiancée. Michael arranges for Sucre to be back in his cell and they start corroding the pipes behind Michael’s cell with Abruzzi’s help. When Agent Kellerman learns that Michael is in Fox River jail, he makes arrangements for his transfer to another prison by blackmailing Pope, the warden.
Michael takes the help of the gang to decide the escape route. He makes the authorities believe that he is attempting an escape resulting in police cars inundating the streets called English and Percy, but the street named Fitz remain unruffled. Pope decides to retain Michael in Fox River. Michael’s plan of maneuvering prisoners and guards into prison lockdown backfires when T-Bag initiates a riot. On stumbling upon the escape plan, T-Bag wants to join in and wants to get rid of CO Hudson but is told not to do so. Another riot starts in sick-bay of prison, putting Sara’s life in danger. After watching it through CCTV, Michael hazards his break out plans and goes to save her. Sara manages to escape outside away from the rowdy inmates with the help of Michael.
