The story

Spoilers ahead. Coverage follows the scope labeled below.

Plot summary

Suzanne has hallucinations while getting back on her medications. She is the first to be interviewed for a federal investigation into the riot and murders. Those found in the bunker are held in isolation at Litchfield's maximum security prison, and they face various abuses from the guards and inmates. Frieda attempts suicide, while Red confronts her roommate, Badison, to protect her family. Piper desperately tries to find Alex, and fears the worst when she learns a prisoner had died in the riot. Gloria tries to attack Maria, but they are handcuffed and forced to kiss by the guards.

Taystee is visited by CO Tamika Ward, who had been her friend on the outside. Suzanne is released from questioning and is brought to the prison, which she realizes is not her "home" anymore. Flashback: Suzanne and Cindy hide in the pool and witness CERT officers stage Piscatella's body as if the inmates killed him with his own gun. On the bus, Red provides a story that Piscatella brought them in the pool to torture them. Suzanne snaps at the false version of events, but Cindy insists they lie so the guards won't kill them.
