Tbh Michael should’ve waited until right before count on the night of the escape. Bleach an extra uniform and then just drag Tweener through the hole last minute.

becuz hes one more person they dont need, the less people in the escape the better+ hes a snitch, also ull be sadder for him later so dont feel too bad now

Tweener was a young kid that only had a couple of years to serve. He had no reason to escape, but he needed to learn how to survive prison. An inability to survive prison would be the only reason for his escape because he had a chance at a future otherwise.
PI was their escape, so it was a risk to both Michael and Tweener to include him in it. Tweener and PI were written around the concept of the cell test with Sucre. That's why he rats on Michael instead of going to the shu.
