Great questions. I too remember the initial days of "Crazy Eyes" seeming like a different character - could not imagine the peeing thing happening now. Although maybe it was a tick as apart of a coping mechanism for her before that she has grown out of, or therapy has helped in some way?
Either way I think you make…

And wearing a cape.

And in this season, the inmates can't even get to Caputo to talk. Her only option is Piscatella whom she knows only defends his men and manipulates them into sexually harassing Latinas.

Around these threads, yes. Which is ridiculous.

Also - can Piscatella, a GUARD, even add 3-5 years to her sentence? Seems like this is the kind of thing only a judge can actually do. Also after reading the prison expose' piece by Bauer, it seems like even write-ups basically get thrown out unless they actually stab someone (and even then).

As I've never seen such a disclaimer from you, especially when you enjoy making such broad comments that their theme failed/did not work (not just "for you" or "in my opinion") with stupid capitalized titles like Big Important Statement, then yeah.. I guess you do.

And I felt very vindicated just a few episodes later, when Piper has her crew again :)

Creepy.

Funny how no one had these comments in the early seasons during their romance, only after he left and Red's line in episode 3 about guards and prisoners. It's not illegal in all states.

I don't find either man a "complete" asshole. Everyone can be one, sure. But both struggle internally with who they are and the choices they make - true blue assholes don't have any turmoil over the consequences of their actions (i.e. Piscatella).
I think Healy just wants so desperately to be loved and respected,…

Agree, but it was no less frustrating and disheartening.
I really hope they deal with this next season and not pretend the interrogations, treatment of the women (standing for days, lack of sleep), inmate fight club, etc. is swept under the rug.

Didn't know Matt Weiner from Mad Men directed it - so different than that show. Awesome.

Ok, but how would more black writers in the room change the amazing finale of this show? Would the black writers have raised their hands and said, "No! Don't kill Poussey, she's too near and dear to us!" and that would've been the right answer?

But why did it fail, because "underscorex" says so? It caused people to grieve a character based on a death we've seen so many times in the news. But this time, there is no question of what happened for the viewer, and there's no question it was negligence on the men in uniform.
Seeing the way MCC nearly tried to…

Days ago I was looking at some random's person's Twitter timeline and they re-tweeted "RIP Poussey Washington". I clicked X and sat in disbelief - then hoped it was some kind of joke.
Felt the same as you did when it happened.

Anymore? Yes. Any more? Probably not.

I think he's also easily persuaded by figures he deems stronger than himself. For example when he marches into the guard rec room and suspends Humphreys for forcing inmates to fight, yells at P. for interrogating them, etc. - I was cheering inside - and then P. immediately talks him down with eye contact and threats…

What's heartbreaking is I think Healy was actually doing his best counsel with Lolly. He just made one misstep in assuming she really couldn't have killed anybody in the middle of the yard, which he took very hard in reference to his mother leaving.

I agree, and don't find him a vilian at all. An idiot? At times. Selfish? To be sure. But the simple way that he flinched and growled when Humphreys called the inmate a name post-fight was proof he has a good streak. Whether or not he's a strong enough man to be in the position he's in is a whole other story.

Yeah - their Colgate smiles and bright purple suits, really?
