** The buildup to Beecher fighting back is awesome as well, as Beecher stops fearing him and starts defying him. When Schillinger forbids him from using drugs, Beecher continues getting them from O'Reilly anyway. O'Reilly says "But Schillinger said you can't have them anymore," to which Beecher responds "[[PrecisionFStrike Fuck Schillinger.]]" When Schillinger rips out the pages of a law book and tells him to eat it, Beecher says "No." and slaps his hand away, causing Schillinger to have to force them to eat it.

** Said returns to Em City with a hero's welcome and everyone chanting his name.



** Father Mukada (a liberal, Asian, Catholic, "hack in black") convincing white supremacist Vern Schillinger to release Beecher's kidnapped daughter.
** Beecher killing the white supremacist guard with [[WolverineClaws his sharpened fingernails]], then casually clipping off the evidence.
** Wilson Loewen delivering an absolutely devastating ReasonYouSuckSpeech to a thoroughly deserving Schillinger.
** Keller snapping the neck of the Aryan who killed Beecher's father.
** O'Reily smashing the head of Dr. Nathan's rapist in with a dumbbell.
** Keller tricking Beecher into killing longtime enemy Schillinger.
** O'Reily manipulating events to get SmugSnake Jia Kenmin, who got his brother Cyril sent to Death Row, beaten to death by guards.
** Said's Speech in Episode Eight: "We don't need more prisons, bigger prisons, better prisons. We need better justice."
** Moses Deyell punching through a stone wall he'd been chipping away at and choking racist killer Mark Miles to death.
** Schillinger finally getting his karma when Beecher unwittingly shanks him during the play. Particularly great when he realizes he's been duped and when Keneniah shouts [[SugarWiki/FunnyMoments "THAT MOTHAFUCKA'S DEAD!"]] to [[AndThereWasMuchRejoicing thunderous applause]].
** Beecher, high on PCP and having had enough of Schillinger's torture, smashing the window and sending a shard of glass into Schillinger's eye. Both the prisoners and audience at home really couldn't help but cheer.

*** Burr Redding still grieving for Augustus, Alverez and Guerra who hated each other for so long standing together, one of the homeboys loyal to Poet with no reason to care for the brothers, Busmalis and Rebadow showing that they still are as big hearted as they ever were, even Beecher who should've given up all hope and compassion by this point. For me it was the pinnacle of series, and a hope spot for all the failures of OZ and Em City.

* The riot in season 1 has several as all hell breaks loose. As Said leading his men out to charge the riot, they find some convicts circling on Diane who flee as soon as the Muslims come at them. Diane is naturally worried but one member of the Brotherhood actually seems to comfort her, showing Said's morals at not wanting her hurt (or more likely sexually assaulted as all the other guards and Father Mukada are beaten).
