I've never missed a Burn Notice so I'm strapped in and ready to go.
I thought I was all in, but I don't remember Michael going to prison.
I better scrutinize the last couple of episodes.
[spoiler=Last scene of last season]
As far as I remember, the final scene of the finale was Michael in a helicopter with Carla's boss and Michael telling him to get stuffed after he offered Michael a job.
Michael tells him that he just wants his life back and them out of the picture. Carla's boss tell Michael they can step away, but along with that goes the protection they have been providing Michael from all the enemies he's made over his career. Michael tells him he'll take his chances and bails out of the helicopter, which is low and just off shore. Michael starting the swim to shore is the fade out scene, I think.
I guess the prison angle could have to do with Michael being framed for the bloodbath that resulted in Carla's death(?) and the death of some other red shirt heavies whose connections I don't remember at the moment. But that would have to be laid out in exposition or a flashback. It wasn't really posed as a threat to Michael in the finale if I'm remembering correctly.
