Ep 7. Part 7

Ben Stiller directs this eight-part limited series based on the real-life 2015 prison break in Upstate New York. "Escape at Dannemora" follows the story of two inmates, Richard Matt (Benicio Del Toro) and David Sweat (Paul Dano), who escape from the Clinton Correctional Facility with the help of prison employee Tilly Mitchell (Patricia Arquette).

In episode 7, titled "Part 7," the search for the escaped convicts continues as law enforcement expands their search area beyond the immediate vicinity of the prison. Meanwhile, Richard and David struggle to navigate the unforgiving terrain and evade the authorities.

The tension between the two escapees begins to mount as they face mounting challenges, including hunger, fatigue, and the harsh elements. Richard's impulsive and reckless behavior also puts the plan in jeopardy, and David finds himself increasingly frustrated with his partner's decisions.

As the search intensifies, Tilly faces her own set of challenges as she juggles her job at the prison, her tumultuous relationship with Lyle (Eric Lange), and her involvement in the escape plot. Tilly becomes increasingly paranoid and anxious, and her behavior attracts the attention of her colleagues, putting her in even greater danger.

As the episode comes to a close, all three characters find themselves on the brink of disaster as the search for the escapees reaches a critical point. "Escape at Dannemora" continues to deliver a thrilling and intense portrayal of the real-life events that captivated the nation in 2015.
