Clip 2 • Start: 14:05 shot of Crazy Eyes graduation • Finish: 9:42 ends on Piper turning around to see Vee has influence over Crazy Eyes • Synopsis: We see Suzanne’s (Crazy Eyes) parents and sister giving her a pep-talk before she is supposed to sing at her high school graduation. She freezes onstage and begins to hit herself. We cut to the Christmas pageant, where Suzanne also freezes onstage, and is rescued by Norma and the rest of the ladies. We see her leave the auditorium, high on the Christmas spirit, but she runs into Maritza and Flaca who then make fun of the way she hit herself when she froze onstage, which triggers the memories of her mother pushing her to do things when she was younger. She snaps and runs outside and in a daze attacks Piper (who is in the midst of attacking Pennsatucky), taking out her anger towards her mother. We return to the present, where Suzanne apologizes to Piper for hitting her. Piper explains that she isn’t mad because Suzanne actually saved her because she made it look like a fair fight with Pennsatucky. Piper explains how grateful she is to a confused Suzannae, who then refuses Piper’s offer to see that night’s movie together because of Vee’s encouraging look from the dorm. Piper seems to recognize the influence that Vee now has over Crazy Eyes. • Characters: SUZANNE “CRAZY EYES” WARREN (), DENNIS WARREN (Dylan Chalfy), PAT WARREN (Erin Davie), 13 YEAR-OLD GRACE (Merceds Griffeth), RENEE (Brigid Brady ), TAYSTEE (), MARITZA (Diane Gurrero), FLACA (), NORMA (), LORNA (), JANAE (), POUSSEY (), ANITA (), WEEPING WOMAN (Tamara Torres), (), PIPER (), PENNSATUCKY (), VEE (Lorraine Toussaint)

Frieda seals up the tunnel in the greenhouse, but only after Vee has escaped through it and now runs through the woods. Nicky and Big Boo try to move the stolen so they can get Vee caught with it, but the alarm sounds and they drop to the floor. The ladies in the kitchen, Dayanara, Maria, Maritza, Norma, Aleida, Gloria, Blanca, are all laying on the floor when Bennet comes to check on them and tells them the alarm is sounding because Vee is missing—Norma and Gloria smile to one another, assuming their spell to get rid of her has worked. Lorna, Ford and Miss Rosa arrive back at camp to the chaos of the alarm, Ford leaves the inmates in the van to check on things. Kowalski discovers Nicky and Big Boo on the floor of the laundry room and tells them that an inmate is missing—he sends them back to their bunks for count, Nicky has a hard time leaving the heroin. Maxwell and Bell tell their dorm that the facility is officially on lockdown. Alex is startled in her apartment and, thinking that Kubra’s men are after her, pulls her gun on the man who enters. That man turns out to be her landlord, who has only opened the door because her parole officer, who is with him, has asked him to. Alex knows she’s in deep trouble. Donaldson is giving his dorm the same information about the lockdown—everyone has to remain in their bunks until further notice. Piper retrieves all her letters from Alex, delighting in the fact that she knows her plan will work and Alex will soon be back at Litchfield with her. We see all the girls in their bunks, doing what they do: Sophia does another inmates , Poussey reads a magazine while Janae exercises, Taystee gossips with Black Cindy and her bunkmate, and finally we come upon Crazy Eyes, crying over the deck of Uno cards Vee left her—she is suffering, thinking she let Vee down. While Ford is gone, Lorna decides to give Miss Rosa the van, so that she can escape Litchfield and die in peace. Miss Rosa escapes in the van, with Ford and Lorna running after her. Caputo walks Sister Ingalls out to call off the nuns who are protesting for her, but is interrupted when the van barrels by them— O’Neill scatters the nuns away from the barrier just in time for Miss Rosa to crash through it, to the outside world. Miss Rosa is free—and Caputo looks on, knowing he is in hot water now that he is the new assistant warden. Vee runs through the woods, trying to find her way to civilization. Miss Rosa is cruising down the road, she turns on the radio, rolls down the window—and then spots Vee in the distance.
