'cause it does make you wonder what kind of relationship Bellick and Linc have, if they get along (which they seem to, from the couple of other scenes we've had of them together), especially considering how Bellick randomly hates Michael for no specific reason.

Exactly. Though I'm thinking Bellick knew about Michael before hand (Either as Linc baby bro or just his lack of a record) and that might have something to do with the strong hatred.

[...] He and Sucre seemed alright with one another (allowed Sucre congigals because he stayed out of trouble) until Sucre wouldn't do what he wanted. And he and Westmoreland were pretty buddy-buddy until the riots.

But Michael he hated right off the bat, so that could be something interesting to explore - why he seems okay with certain inmates, what kind of relationship he and Linc have, and why he doesn't like others like Michael.

Oh man. Theories. You bitch. Well, I think I know what I'm gonna do on the way home tonight...

Yeah, see, I can totally get that - like how someone gets to that point, can act so completely...un-human, yet often function normally in society and interact like regular people. On the one hand, it's something I can't at all understand and don't really want to (it's the T-Bag thing again - scary to get inside the head of someone like that), but on the other hand - probably especially for someone like you who's interested in criminal psychology - someone who acts in a way that's so strange and different from what's normal (and in such a violent way) makes you want to know what exactly goes on in their head to make them do such things.

Exactly. It's the unknown factor that gets me. It's just so... I lack words right now.
