Orange Is the New Black (season 5)

The prison stays under control of the inmates, who are holding several corrections officers hostage. The Hispanics force the COs to strip down to their underwear in front of a packed chapel and make very intimate searches of the COs. The video of Caputo, meant to spark outrage, instead gets mocked with memes. Humphrey, who is suffering major blood loss, has a stroke in the prison infirmary, which is staffed by only a nurse. Daya, nearing an emotional breakdown worrying over her future, claims she lost the gun. McCullough, however, suspects the gun is gone. Taystee uploads a photo of all the COs, plus Caputo and Josh, in their underwear. It is revealed that Frieda has a secret "bunker" stocked with food that she had built out of an unused pool that was never filled in.

Worried over the public backlash—and Judy King—MCC decides to meet the inmates' demands. Linda tries to fit in with the inmates, but is shocked at the substandard conditions of the prison. Piper and Alex, looking at Linda's phone, are shocked to find photos of her kissing Caputo. The inmates work together to compile a list of demands, which includes reinstating the GED program, better healthcare, amnesty for the inmates involved in the riot, the arrest of Bayley for Poussey's death, and Flaming Hot Cheetos. Bayley goes to the police station and tries to confess for Poussey's death, but the police dismiss him as a drunk veteran and put him in the drunk tank. A frightened Judy King attempts to escape, but is instead attacked by the white supremacists. The COs, locked in a room, plot to regain control of the prison after McCullough reveals that the inmates do not have the gun anymore. As they prepare to attack the inmates, Caputo sees Linda among them.

The COs abort their mission to attack on Caputo's command. Angie and Leanne try to pants Gloria, and the gun falls to the crowd, which they recover. The two meth heads want the COs to perform a talent show for their enjoyment. Suzanne sets up a shrine on the spot of Poussey's death and organizes a séance. Blanca and Red raid the administrative files looking for dirt on the COs; they discover that Piscatella was transferred from a male prison after the death of an inmate discovered in the shower with burns on 80% of his body. Sophia surrenders herself in order to reunite with Sister Ingalls, only to discover that a sick Ingalls had been given compassionate release. Judy King is tied to a board by the white supremacists, who believe she has a stash of food. Judy faints when they attempt to throw her off the prison roof. A news helicopter suddenly arrives, taking photos and recordings of Judy tied up and unconscious.

The video of Judy King is widely misreported as a terrorist attack against Christians. The governor is livid about MCC's passive stance and sends his own team to Litchfield. On the outside, Aleida struggles to find employment. Gloria calls Aleida, but is unable to tell her about Daya. Taystee and her friends free Judy in order to stop the disinformation about the situation. Taystee faces the press with an emotional speech about the truth, including how Judy was kept separate from the inmates due to her wealth and status, before releasing Judy to the press. Angie and Leanne find Coates in the laundry room. They plan to take him hostage, but Pennsatucky grabs the gun from Angie's waistband. She throws the gun to Coates and it accidentally fires, shooting Leanne in the finger. Coates uses the weapon to escape the prison and head outside, but he faints when the CERT approach him with guns drawn.

The inmates receive numerous boxes containing Hot Cheetos and tampons from the governor. Taystee realizes that accepting the treats puts them in a position in which they owe the authorities the release of the hostages; Piper helps Taystee confiscate all the treats. The inmates organize a mock trial for Pennsatucky, as she had helped Coates escape the prison with the gun. Big Boo acts as Doggett's representative. Pennsatucky is ultimately given community service as her sentence. Aleida appears on the local news to talk about her experiences at Litchfield, though the interview is disastrous. Morello and Nicky have sex and Morello realizes she is pregnant. Janae consoles Soso. Bayley attempts to commit suicide by drinking bottles of paint dye, which turns out to be non-toxic. Frieda reveals the existence of her secret bunker to various inmates. Taystee faces the press and sets all of the governor's treats on fire.

Using Humphrey's phone, Red and Blanca send text messages to Piscatella, encouraging him to break into the prison via a window at night. Piscatella takes the information to the CERT, who blow him off. Aleida does an interview with Judy King, who reveals that Humphrey was shot. Aleida discovers that Daya was the shooter. The news about Humphrey reaches the CERT members, who mock Piscatella. Gloria learns that her son is in the ICU after being severely beaten. Figueroa returns to the prison as a MCC negotiator to talk about the inmates' demands. When Figueroa is informed about Humphrey, she states that amnesty for all the inmates is a no-go. Taystee agrees to hand over Daya, who first calls Mendez's mother, asking her to adopt her daughter out of foster care. Daya also asks Mendez's mother to give the child some space, due to Aleida's control she received when she was younger. Piscatella, after texting "Humphrey" that he is opting out of breaking in, enters the prison after dark instead.

Red, coming down from her drug high, is nursed by Nicky, who believes Red's warnings about Piscatella being in the prison are hallucinations. Piscatella, in full riot gear, attacks Blanca in a utility room. Inmates soon begin disappearing one by one, including Nicky and Boo. Gloria begs Caputo—who is locked in a Porta-Potty—to give her furlough to see her son, but Caputo states he cannot help her until she lets the hostages go. After Boo disappears, Linda desperately seeks out Caputo, who is let out by Taystee to back up the inmates' claim of slave labor to Figueroa. Morello, hurt by Nicky's comments that her pregnancy is all in her head, convinces Suzanne to stop taking her psych medicine. Red finds Frieda's map to her secret bunker, and she accidentally discovers Piscatella's prisoners while on her way there. However, while trying to free them, Piscatella arrives.

Piscatella has Red, Piper, Alex and other inmates tied up in a room, where he uses a knife to cut off Red's hair and brutally breaks Alex's arm. Piper gets the duct tape off her mouth and yells for help, which is heard by the other inmates holed up in Frieda's basement bunker. The entrance to the room they are in leads to where Piscatella is. Meanwhile, Gloria tries to free the prison guards, but she is interrupted. Maureen, who has still not recovered from the beating, is found delirious in the bathroom by Suzanne, who takes her to the infirmary. Suzanne, by now in a psychotic state, discovers that Humphrey is dead. Gina lures Piscatella into the basement, where Frieda knocks him out with a homemade poison dart.

MCC makes an offer to Taystee that reaches most of the inmates' demands, but Taystee rejects the offer, as Bayley has not been prosecuted for Poussey's death. The hostage guards—except Luschek—are led to MCC management by Maria. As it was not Taystee who sent out the guards as part of an acceptance of the negotiation, MCC decides to send the CERT into the prison to end the riot. Morello reveals numerous positive pregnancy tests to Nicky, who calls Vince and convinces him to take responsibility. Pennsatucky escapes the prison using the hole in the fence, and she breaks into the guards' cabin. Bayley travels by bus to meet Poussey's father; he tearfully apologizes for her death. Poussey's father refuses to accept, stating that Bayley's punishment will be having to live the rest of his life with what he has done. A distraught Bayley does not use his bus ticket to return home, but instead leaves the bus station to an unknown destination. In Frieda's bunker, Piper proposes to Alex, who says yes. After discovering that the guards have escaped, Taystee attempts to talk to the CERT, but it is too late, as the CERT officers immediately swarm Litchfield.

Dozens of CERT members in riot gear break down the prison doors with smoke bombs, stun guns and batons in hand, causing pandemonium as they handcuff all the inmates. After discovering a dead Humphrey, the CERT escalate their tactics to "by any means necessary." Cindy and Taystee panic as Suzanne is unconscious from the lithium. They get help from Nicky, who takes them down to Frieda's hiding place; Suzanne is revived when they inject her with an epi-pen. Angie and Leanne burn all the prison records to erase their history of infractions. Deciding not to go down without a fight, Ouija, Pidge and the white supremacists barricade themselves inside a dorm and injure some of the CERT members with booby traps before being restrained. The inmates are led outside in handcuffs in front of a crowd of families and the press. Maritza and Flaca are thrilled to see fans of their beauty tutorials on the internet cheering for them. Morello reunites with Vince, and Maria is allowed to see her daughter. Linda tries to tell an officer she is from MCC, but she is ignored.
