1 | '''"WAC Pack"''' is the sixth episode of season one of ''Series/OrangeIsTheNewBlack''. |
2 | |
3 | Healy reinstates the Women's Advisory Council (WAC), which will feature a representative from each of the groups, and various inmates run for office. Meanwhile, the [=COs=] try to discover the source of a pornographic photo taken in a bathroom stall. Daya confronts her mother about trying to sleep with Bennett. Flashbacks center around Nicole "Nicky" Nichols and her tempestuous relationship with her mother. After her next-to-last overdose on drugs, her mother more-or-less abandoned her, refusing even the slightest sympathy or touch. This is contrasted with her final experience going cold turkey--here in Litchfield, where Red pulled her together and threatened bloody retribution if Nicky ever used again. |

5 | !!This episode provides examples of the following tropes: |
6 | |
7 | * AbhorrentAdmirer: Healy. He suggests Piper run for WAC, but she declines. So he ''ignores the vote'' and awards her the office anyhow. |
8 | * AntagonisticOffspring: Piper to her mother, Nicky to her mother, and Daya to Aleida. |
9 | * BiggerIsBetterInBed: Discussed when the Latina inmates talk about the "black male" myth. |
10 | * ChekhovsGunman: Alex' connection is introduced, and he name-drops Kubra. |
11 | ** Likewise, Bianca, the Hispanic inmate who spends long periods in the only toilet stall with a door on it, talking to "el Diablo" (IE no one). |
12 | * DoubleEntendre: Caputo says "I'll get to the ''bottom'' of this" about the cell phone picture. |
13 | * TheReveal: Bennett ''didn't'' succumb to Aleida's advances. |
14 | * SexEqualsLove: Once Daya finds that out, she goes to him willingly. ...And discovers that he has a prosthetic left leg. |
15 | * ShoutOut: Morello is obsessed with Theatre/WestSideStory. |
16 | * UndyingLoyalty: Nicky to Red. As the flashbacks show, it's been earned. |
