Spoilers ahead. Coverage follows the scope labeled below.

Plot summary

After the shooting, which left Wangler, Pierce and two others dead, Glynn is forced to fire McManus in order to cement his candidacy for lieutenant governor. Keller is in the hospital after being wounded in the shooting; Beecher reaffirms his love for Keller despite Said's insistence that homosexuality is sinful. Beecher also succeeds in setting up a visit between Schillinger and his son Hank. Basil, the undercover agent, has a visit with his partner; when Hill says that the partner looks familiar, Basil worries about being exposed. Said's trial is underway, and he meets again with Patricia Ross, who admits she is attracted to him.

When the time comes for Said to testify, he refuses to wear the orange jumpsuit that is required in order for him to appear in court. Beecher testifies instead, afraid that Said might want the trial to fail so that he can continue to indict the United States legal system. Jason Cramer discovers that his own trial may have been influenced by anti-gay prejudice amongst the jury, and he asks Said for legal help. Ryan O'Reily learns that Stanislofsky has a cell phone, and he attempts to obtain it. Stanislofsky resists O'Reily and has one of the new inmates, Galino, killed in order to protect his secret, but eventually, he agrees to work with O'Reily. Hernandez and the Latinos continue trying to kill Alvarez, but instead, Alvarez escapes with Busmalis through his newly completed tunnel.
