How about piper's other lover, Larry? He's got another lover: Piper's best friend Polly (yikes). Piper finds out that he's cheated while on leave for her grandmother's funeral, Piper figures out it's Polly, and then Larry and Polly visit Piper in prison to ask for her blessing. Her response: "F—k you. F—k both of you."
Don't forget about the prison personnel. Pornstache returns, gets framed for Daya's pregnancy, and is fired. Figueroa is busy embezzling money from the prison to her husband's (who is having an affair with a man) political campaign, which Caputo discovers (with help from Piper). Caputo nabs Figueroa's position as a result (but not before nabbing an, ahem, oral parting present from her). And Bennett (Daya's real baby daddy) confesses to Caputo—who doesn't want to hear it.
Back to the prisoners: Vee and Red's showdown. First, Red strangles Vee with a piece of plastic wrap but lets up short of killing her. Vee lets Red think that they're going to form a truce and then shows up in her greenhouse with a lock in a sock (and you can guess what happens next). The worst part of it all? Vee makes Crazy Eyes take the fall for the brutal beating.
