I will Drink a Beer to the guys when I get to feeling better.
KC. That was tough to listen to man. Outstanding job putting that Episode together. It hurt more then when Datu was attacked.
Ink did what he did to let them know he is still in control.

RIP Muldoon Carl and Robbins.

I love how Puck sounds like he is in complete pain, physical and emotional, when recounting the events, and how the soldiers were so distraught at losing their own men, their best friends. And Robbins....Man Tony Ray made it sound so convincing..... I agree with everyone else, amazing acting and probably my favorite episode to date.

Wow. Just wow.

The drugs mentioned are basically human growth hormone, testosterone and follistatin.

I am perplexed that we have english script describing the drugs, but we also have hieroglyphs in another part of the prison. An intelligence test? The big dudes are supposed to eat what they have been assigned and not another? More experimentation? The one that had the rainbow mark was not seen as food or a threat and left alone?

It hurt every-time someone said turn back. You knew something was going to happen but not how. The last moments with the soldiers wrecked me. When I heard him starting to call him Greg it felt really real.

Okay, just to get this all out so I can add to the list. My google-fu is not strong today but so far, I've found the following possible meanings:

5. Cross with a triangle
- Christianity

At first I thought this was an ankh but it might be this http://mystic.wikia.com/wiki/Cross_and_Triangle.

I'm curious about the mention of hair on the one symbol room that was missing a door. We have the big one at the end that seems to be the dominant behemoth in the prison but there's nothing to suggest that there was hair on any of the other rooms. There are only five doors for the big ones with the chemicals listed, one of which was the control, and we know Cohen and McKibbon aren't the hairy one due to other parts of the story (at least McKibbon, I'm guessing on Cohen). Is it possible that there's a whole other wing of special ones we haven't seen?

Also, it seems that the common factor amongst most of these guys in solitary is the high level of aggression (excluding Cohen) based on the mention of inmate conflict. Would this be a factor in Ink choosing them for this particular enhancement? The higher the level of natural testosterone, the better the effectiveness of the Folistain?

The drugs mentioned are basically human growth hormone, testosterone and follistatin.

I like the idea of the intelligence test but there's no mention that there were any corpses inside the rooms that they got into. Other bodies were left alone once they were "picked clean" of all of the meat.

Perhaps the one with the rainbow was the control for that group. These ones could be the jumpers or the fast ones. I agree that they can't be the little ones given what we know about them. Maybe the big ones just had to help spring the ones that survived their transformation.

I'm not sure if it's the same symbol, but when googling 'cross with triangle' I found this.
The fish on fire just gave me something about a koi fish.
I have no clue about the rest of them, other than 'the Egyptian eye' probably is Eye of Horos.
Maybe the three arched lines with the five-line fan below could be a symbol of rain? The three could be a Rainbow as Puck suggests, the five others the rain Falling... Or maybe it's just a speaker blasting out soundwaves... Maybe Ink was a fan of really loud music?
