Neri takes Piper on a wilderness outing; Taystee tutors Pennsatucky; Suzanne takes care of the chicken coop; Nicky and Red have a difficult conversation.


This episode provides examples of the following tropes:

  • A Day in the Limelight: Red gets one again to her days in the Russian Mafia.
  • Amazingly Embarrassing Parents: Aleida is this to Daya, telling Daya's gang embarrassing stories, as well as letting her gang know she's the reason Daya's even the boss.
  • Brick Joke: The same chicken that kept breaking into minimum security's yard is back again.
  • Buffy Speak: Aleida says Daya was into the "pretty ponies with the tattoos on their butts" when she was younger.
  • The Cat Came Back: The Litchfield chicken is back and is now part of the coop.
  • The Cuckoolander Was Right: Suzanne's theory on opening up the roof of the chicken coop is this as it helps increase the egg yield.
  • My God, What Have I Done?: Neri has this reaction to killing a domestic sheep that wandered into the woods. On Red's side, she has this for being responsible for Ilya's death.
  • Scatterbrained Senior: Shani tells Nicki of her grandmother going through dementia, which is somewhat what Red has been going through. By the end of the episode, Nicky is starting to realize Red is losing her mind.
  • Screaming at Squick: The hunting trip screams as Freckles the sheep is gutted, and even moreso when they find out she was pregnant.
  • Shipper on Deck: Neri is this for Piper and Zelda.
  • Wounded Gazelle Gambit: Creech trips and smacks her head on the toilet, letting herself get picked up for cigarettes so Alex doesn't get picked up for smuggling chargers.
