In the later seasons, particularly Season 2, the ghost of James Bagwell looms large. After escaping Fox River, T-Bag doesn’t just run for the border; he attempts to "fix" his past.

In a cabin deep in the woods of northern Kentucky, a fire crackled in the hearth. James sat on a rickety wooden chair, his hands still raw from the tunnel’s concrete, his clothes still damp from the rain. He stared into the flames, the orange glow reflecting on his tired eyes.

He pressed harder, the drill biting deeper. The concrete finally gave a soft crumble, revealing a dark void. He slipped his hand into the opening, feeling the cold, damp air of the tunnel beyond.
