Wolfram, between that post and your tag, "Part of the PROBLEM since 2002" I'm picturing a whole new career for you. You can advise people who want to break their family out of the joint on which crimes they should commit, and where.
PenDuffy, thanks for the link to www.tvshowsondvd.com.
Wolfram, from what I've seen in the commercials, the older brother (Dominic Purcell) designed the prison he's incarcerated in. His younger brother, convinced that the older brother is innocent, commits a crime, gets put in the same prison with the sole purpose of breaking his older brother out since his older brother helped design the prison. It's just convoluted enough to make my head hurt but if ita and Kristen are right about the shirtlessness, then I may have to handwave. Although, after they break out, it'll be The Fugitive but with more people on the run.
Also, to be clear, the firm he worked for didn't build the prison. IIRC, they were hired to retrofit it with some stuff a few years before the opening of the series.
ETA: And actually I had to go look and it wasn't even his firm that was hired to do the work. It was another firm that was hired in 1999 and they couldn't do the job so they subcontracted, under the table, to another firm. Which is the brother's firm.

If I had a nickel for ever time I get asked to do this...

Wow, I had the whole thing backwards. I thought the younger brother's all designer guy.
No, Wolfram, you're right.
That does make more sense. Otherwise, imprisoned brother could have broken himself out.
Also with the late Allyson congrats. Woo, and also hoo.
Go, Allyson!!! I'm so excited for you.
Allyson, that's awesome, congratulations! Maybe you'll get to buy your own pony!
And Kristen, this
It's like Herb Saunders, Baltimore, became an FBI agent.made me laugh and laugh. Can I steal that and credit you? (So I guess "quote" is more accurate, but "steal" makes it sound more fun.)
I will join the Allyson Yay! parade. I look forward to your book with great anticipations.
