Who is Michael Scofield in Prison Break?
The engineer with the blueprint under his skin · The Brothers & Allies
Michael Scofield (The engineer with the blueprint under his skin) is a character in Prison Break, part of The Brothers & Allies. Michael Scofield robs a bank badly on purpose: the structural engineer wants into Fox River Penitentiary, where his brother Lincoln sits on death row for a murder Michael believes was staged. His preparation is the show's engine — the prison's blueprints tattooed across his torso inside an elaborate sleeve of devils and angels, every guard's weakness studied, every contingency pre-planned. Low-latent inhibition, the show explains: Michael sees how everything connects. What he can't engineer is people, and the plan starts bleeding the moment it touches them.
