Sara's character plays a critical role in the episode "The Key", where Michael must take possession of a key to the infirmary door .

His plan backfires when she discovers that Michael's wife has stolen the keys from her, and becomes very cold towards him . At the end of the episode, she has the locks to the infirmary door changed, thwarting his efforts . Michael is then forced to come clean in "Tonight" and reveals to her his intent to break Lincoln out of prison . Sara is confronted with the decision whether she should help Michael or not .
