Suggested correction: Both handles are green. The sun is reflecting on the one due to the angle and the glare gives the impression of being silver.

Manhunt - S2-E1

Subdivision - S2-E6

Factual error: Early in the episode, a flyover context shot is made. It is labeled "Salt Lake City Federal Building." In reality, the image is of the Will Rogers Coliseum in Fort Worth, Texas. In the background, you can see the community arts center and the University of North Texas Health Sciences Center.

Answer: Roughly as follows. Linc "kills" Steadman in 2001. Michael robs the bank on March 9th 2005 and is sent to Fox River on April 11th. The breakout from Fox River takes place on or around May 25-31. Michael arrives in Sona on June 17th 2005. More details are here: https://prisonbreak.fandom.com/wiki/Prison_Break_timeline.

That wouldn't make sense because the original grave stone in series 4 has Michael's death date as 2005, which is supposed to be at least 3 years after Fox River.
