Seems that head in a box was a fake as E! Online reports that Sarah Wayne Callies will be back as Dr. Sara Tancredi for the fourth season of "Prison Break".
The actress bowed out of participating in the third season of the hit show due to a pending pregnancy amongst other issues. The character did appear in the third season, but only from the back and in a photograph (which was taken at a wardrobe testing session). She was quickly, and apparently, killed off with Lincoln being posted her head in a box.
Hmm missed the enitire 3rd season as it moved channels.
Perhaps I might be interested in becoming a channel hopper
Seeing that it is Prison Break, I don't care. I missed her. I think I even called it in the last thread that the shadow organization could have rigged up a Hollywood-level fake. Cover it in some real blood, and Linc would be too grossed out to be able to verify.
This season jumps a forward in time a little. Flashbacks in the first few episodes will reveal how characters get to where they are in the present. Executive producer Matt Olmstead says "There will be a bit of a mystery period where we cover what happened. It becomes about Michael trying to figure out what happened to her. It's his attempt to reclaim her, and her trying to figure out what happened and dealing with it."
Personally, I'm happy. The idea of bringing that character back is absolutely absurd, but this is Prison Break, absurd is what they do. And I'm glad they're back.

(I'll use spoiler text but I can't imagine that anyone reading this isn't aware of who is coming back)
Spoiler:
...that was a pretty brutal exit for the Sarah character (having your head chopped off and stuffed in a box would be fair to happen to T-Bag but not to Sarah) so in the end, I guess I'm glad that they're 'fixing' that and having Sarah come back.
It'd be funny if they just went crazy and it was still her head in the box and they've just reattached it to her body. She could have stitches all the way around her throat.
