"Escape Plan Bravo", also titled "Episode 4", is the fourth episode of Telltale Games' Tales from the Borderlands.
Synopsis[]
In this penultimate episode of the season, captured by Vallory and her goons, Rhys and Fiona are forced to continue the search for the Vault beacon - at gunpoint. The beacon is on the Hyperion moon base - Helios - while our heroes are on Pandora... so there's the pesky cold void of death known as 'space' to overcome. Even with assistance from a familiar face, and with a worryingly helpful Handsome Jack hitching a ride in Rhys' head, getting on board the ominous 'H' is going to take every drop of guile, and quite possibly all the spunk you've got. There is ONE last thing we can tell you about this episode... sacrifices will need to be made. Can you make the tough choices required to succeed?

Trivia []
- The original image of Escape Plan Bravo shows two Loader Bots engaging in combat, however nothing like that happens in the actual episode. It is possible that a scene like this was supposed to happen but it was scrapped sometime in development.
- If the player prevented Athena from killing Cassius in Episode 3, this will be the only episode where Vaughn does not appear in.
- Escape Plan Bravo is the only episode where Rhys is not completely voiced by Troy Baker.
- Troy Baker's impersonation of Patrick Warburton (the voice of Vasquez) was reportedly so accurate in the initial recordings that he was asked to re-record it when test players could not hear the difference.
- In the middle of Rhys's line for the option "I know what we have to do" when he interrupts Fiona and Sasha, he lets out a sudden burp: this was an actual burp accidentally made by Troy Baker during recording that was left in the episode, along with his apologetic "Sorry, that was breakfast."[1]
- Cut Content: Originally Episode 4's intro did not begin with Rhys and Fiona discussing a plan of escape. Instead, the group would be at a camp already, with the Stranger and Rhys awake while Fiona slept.
- The Stranger would mention they reached part 4 of the story, which Rhys doesn't understand what the Stranger means by this. The Stranger starts to imply part 4 is mostly filler (this being a meta joke as many Telltale fans believed episode 4 to usually be the weakest episodes of Telltale Games') in which Rhys denies it saying all he is saying is true and he wouldn't waste time or fabricate anything. The Stranger begins to lecture Rhys on the importance of story telling, followed by Fiona who wakes up and agrees with the Stranger's views on how to tell a story and joins in mocking Rhys.
- At the quick-change Rhys would talk to Fiona about her outfit instead of Sasha.
- Once in space, the problem originally consisted of an oxygen leak in which Fiona would be guided by Janey on how to fix it.
- Later in the episode where Fiona needs to meet Rhys in the jail, rather than getting arrested, she would instead pose as a janitor.
- The largest change of the episode is the reveal Felix would still be alive and kept in one of the prison cells. Hyperion would have caught him thinking he had the money, where Felix would reveal he faked his death and the money exploding to get Hyperion off their backs.
- The Stranger would mention they reached part 4 of the story, which Rhys doesn't understand what the Stranger means by this. The Stranger starts to imply part 4 is mostly filler (this being a meta joke as many Telltale fans believed episode 4 to usually be the weakest episodes of Telltale Games') in which Rhys denies it saying all he is saying is true and he wouldn't waste time or fabricate anything. The Stranger begins to lecture Rhys on the importance of story telling, followed by Fiona who wakes up and agrees with the Stranger's views on how to tell a story and joins in mocking Rhys.
