After recent deaths in the prison yard caused a whole lot of chaos for everyone associated with Litchfield, things at the female department of corrections finally returned to normal, or so it may seem. While Taystee and the others of the black community must deal with the heartbreak of losing good friend Poussey Washington; Alex, Piper, Red, and Lolly must deal with the burdening secret that's been forced upon them. Riddled with guilt from her recent actions, Alex is left in a dark place. When things take a turn for the worst, Piper must try to figure out how to save her complicated lover. The task proves to be difficult to fulfill when all of your inmates hate your guts.... "Don't you fucking leave me, Piper." ~ Alex Vause Also includes other inmates stories periodically, maybe.
