Nostril Domus (OP) User ID: 9357516 United States 01/02/2013 04:56 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Its desperate need to attain control of the country's economy eventuated in illegal dealings through Caroline Reynolds' brother's company, Ecofield. When one of their employees leaked information about Ecofield into the public, "The Company" went to incredible lengths to capture him. This man was Aldo Burrows (Anthony Denison). In order to bring him out into the open, "The Company" masterminded a conspiracy and used Caroline Reynolds' power as the Vice President to convict his son, Lincoln Burrows of Terrence Steadman's murder, thus framing an innocent Lincoln. "The Company" became increasingly worried about Caroline Reynolds chances at winning the presidential elections after her support started to plummet in the polls. After Reynolds lost President Richard Mills' confidence and the support for a key energy bill, "The Company" decided to cut her off and advised her to drop out of the race, or they would have to make her. They were greatly surprised when Reynolds had the President killed shortly thereafter (disguising it as a heart-attack) and was then sworn in as the next President of the United States. The relationship between Reynolds and "The Company" after she became President is uncertain. At first glance, it seems like she severed her ties with them. However, they may still be involved in the plot although Caroline Reynolds is in a much more powerful position now since she became President without their help. If the partnership is still active, it's no longer sure who controls whom. The company's main HQ is right next to The Gate Corporation building and part of the buildings blueprint is shown in episode 4x07 Five the hard way. [link to prisonbreak.wikia.com] |
