was the heart of the show. While everyone else was chasing money or freedom, Sucre was chasing love. His frantic search for Maricruz provided some of the season's most desperate stakes. You couldn't help but root for the guy who was just in the wrong place at the wrong time.

Tweener is the tragic figure of the season. He is a petty thief, not a hardened criminal. Caught between two worlds (he betrayed Michael in Season 1), he is utterly out of his depth. His storyline is a short, poignant tragedy about a kid who made one bad choice and is now running from the FBI. His encounter with Agent Mahone is one of the season's most memorable and brutal moments.
