Orange Is The New Black: Tall Men with Feelings (Netflix 11 July 2013)

In Tall Men With Feelings the inmates are struggling to come to terms with Tricia’s death, they believe that she killed herself; Thanks to Piper and Alex’s game playing Pennsatucky has been sent to the Psych ward but Piper feels bad and persuades Caputo that it was her fault and gets Pennsatucky back to the prison proper.

Red and Daya’s mother persuade Daya that she can keep her baby by having sex with Mendez and then claiming he raped her, this will also mean that Mendez will get the boot from the prison however things don’t go quite to plan when Mendez uses a condom.

Larry appears on public radio to talk about long distance relationships and with the whole prison listening in makes some unkind remarks about some of the inmates, including Crazy Eyes and Miss Claudette. Piper also realises, from things he says, that he knows she has been having an affair with Alex. During a phone call Larry reveals that Alex did give Piper’s name to the feds after all.

Flashbacks also deal with the end of Piper and Alex’s relationship.

It seems like Piper just can’t quite make any headway, every time she seems to be settling down something happens, in this case Larry’s radio talk.
