[cl8badb]

**Finished the WHOLE season**
If you havent finished the whole season X out if you dont want to hear spoilers!!
Id hate to ruin it for people still mid season.

Anyone finish the whole season yet? I just finished it tonight.
Im not really going to post any spoilers yet. Id like to see if anyone else finished it first. I just figured id start a thread for it.

[madlizmom]

Finished it yesterday! I didn't realize I was on the last episode and went to the menu for the next one... argh! Now I have to wait forever to see what happens!

[colieann31]

I finally finished it last night too. I'm kind of disappointed with this season...

[cl8badb]

Im disappointed too. Where is Bennett?? (Besides for off filming HTGAWM) How do they not address that again?

Maybe he turned himself in and hes locked up? That part of the plot is bothering me.

Admit it.... Did the idea if selling your panties cross your mind?? Haha

Yeah I thought the part about Bennett needs some more explaining. They left it off too weird. What about Nicky? Is she gone for good?

I do like that Piper became a total bitch to people though. She's finally not as pathetic as she was!

I feel like theyve been discussing max a lot. Now the aussie girl is going too. Maybe theyre going to have some scenes there next season?
I cant wait to see the girls react to the bunk beds and new inmates. Its going to be so crowded.

Piper is starting to annoy me. Even her facial expressions. I think its the "acting" more than anything.

Yeah, the fact that they didn't discuss Bennett at all after he left really pisses me off. We need to at least know something! And what happens to Alex??? Gah, and now we have to wait forever for the answers

I dont think theyll kill her off. Something tells me she will end up in trouble (maybe in max with everyone else) for fighting/beating/killing a guard.
I hope the new season doesnt take forever to get here!

[madlizmom]

Maybe everyone will just get in trouble for something and they'll move them all to max and do the show there?

Never mind. Then what's the point of the bunk beds and new inmates? Ignore me. Move on.

[anustart1]

Not knowing where Bennett is is killing me also. It doesn't seem in character for him to just take off. I'm not sure what the point of showing his time in the service and the way her reacted to stress or trauma as it doesn't match up or tell us anything about the person he is now. I felt that even when we do find out what became of him it was poorly written and out of character.

I didn't have strong feelings about any other story line. I did like that Piper wasn't a whiney doormat in the end.

But seriously why does she have all these hot lesbians lusting over her? Alex and the one who looked like Justin Bieber are like 4000 times hotter than her.

The only thing that stuck out about Bennetts flashback was that when the guy threw the bomb in the tent he ran while the other soldier jumped onto the bomb. Now he ran again?

See to me it wasn't even obvious that he ran. Didn't he like stay in the tent on the ground? Did he fall and end up stuck in there? I'm not an idiot so if I have to question what happened in the tent they didn't write and execute it well. The flashback scenes also painted a totally different picture of him being a good guy for 99.9% of it and then this possibly questionable move. The character development was poor for him and it bothers me more than it should. Probably because I generally think their writing is pretty good.

I kind of remember him standing hovering (eta shouldve been cowaring) in a corner... Maybe after that he hit the ground?
I know the other guy definitely jumped on the bomb bc i thought he was nuts!! Haha

Hmm, interesting observation.  I still think it felt kind of lazy not to show him at all after he ran away.  Like maybe the actor had scheduling conflicts because of his other show and they just wrote him out in the clumsiest way possible?  

More random observations, I just finished the season last night --

I liked this season, but I don't really care if anything super dramatic happens to the characters because my favorite parts are the flashbacks.  I liked the backstories for Big Boo and Leeanne.  

The Norma cult storyline was funny for awhile but I think they dragged it on for too long.

If Nicky is gone for good then I won't like the next season as much, but I'm glad they gave Poussey a lot of screen time this season.

I thought the overarching pressure on the prison caused by the MCC privatization was a good way to create tension and also explore the issues of unions and corporations running prisons for profit.  

I hate Daya's mom with the fire of a thousand suns.  What a sociopath.  The only person I hate more is Piper.  She's prissy and self-involved and probably also a sociopath. 

How long until Lorna goes BSC jealous on her new husband?  

Exactly. Even if he was off shooting his other show the least they couldve done was talk about where he is or where he may be. Its totally annoying that he was never mentioned again.

Piper annoys me too. Just her facial expressions alone are enough to annoy me.

[lizzybizzy]

Alex actually annoyed me more than Piper this season.

I think Bennett may come back into the story now that baby girl was taken into care after the police raid.

I think Nicky will come back but she annoyed me this season too. Maybe they'll all go to max for a bit for 'escaping'.

The nun is still one of my favorite characters.

I like the guy Lorna married and I love the new romances between soso and Poussey and crazy eyes and her superfan.

Quick question. I'm getting ready to start the season finale, but I'm confused..who did burset piss off to put her in shu? I think I missed something there. I seen her glare at the one girl as they walked to her shu but I didn't know if she did something.

She didn't piss anyone off. They did it to "protect" her because the new investors didn't want to spend the money on guard training and classes for inmates about acceptance and tolerance of differences (I think). It's been a while since I watched the season so if I missed anything I'm sure someone will fill you in more

This.
