Plot Overview:
Set several years after the events of Season 5, Michael (Wentworth Miller) has finally settled into a quiet life with Sara (Sarah Wayne Callies) and their son, Mike Jr. Meanwhile, Lincoln (Dominic Purcell) has rebuilt his life, running a small business and staying out of trouble. But peace is short-lived when a ghost from Michael’s past resurfaces.
Michael is dragged back into the world he thought he left behind when a mysterious organization, calling itself The Orion Syndicate, targets him for his unparalleled skills in prison escapes. The Syndicate is a shadowy, global network with deep ties to government corruption and private prisons, and it forces Michael to orchestrate a series of complex breakouts for its own gain.
When Sara and Mike Jr. are kidnapped as leverage, Michael has no choice but to comply. Desperate for help, he turns to Lincoln, Sucre (Amaury Nolasco), and T-Bag (Robert Knepper), forming an unlikely alliance to take down the Syndicate and free his family.
