I don't understand the constant references to pantyhose. I thought lack of pantyhose was the only good thing about prison.

I'm actually wondering if the pantyhose are meant to be a sieve for homemade hootch. It would work pretty well.

CRAZY EYES YOU STOP THAT THIS MINUTE YOUNG LADY! But I wonder if this will be what finally turns Taystee away from Vee.

Hey, so, question- are they not going to give that baby a paternity test once it's born?

I was wondering that too.

Wait, what is the big lingering secret- did I miss something???
I get the Red/Vee part.
Maybe the Poussey part, the baby, Alex/Piper/Polly etc...
What did I miss? I need to not multiply-internet at the same time...

I think that's referring to Daya and the world's least interesting pregnancy.

Yeah, really.. People talk about Piper being boring, whiny, and entitled but Daya.. I feel bad about saying this, I know she's in a difficult position, and having hormones probably, but it's hard to feel that bad for her as a fictional character, I think because her face has no emotions and she just dumbly goes along, causing problems and making demands.

Yeah, I find Piper a good deal more likeable than Daya. But since she's not the central character, she's not going to get discussed the same way.

I took the "big lingering secret" as being Christopher's visit to the prison and Nicky subsequently finding out Morello's backstory.

Is Daya even 20 yet? She's very immature, but she's also basically a teenager with a life that has been spent overwhelmed with the responsibility of her younger siblings, being neglected by her mother, and being coerced into sex with at least three men who hold substantial power imbalances.

I'm so in love with Morello, she's just heartbreaking - even when being chirpy. But wouldn't the cops have fingerprinted Christopha's house and rumbled her outright?

Some people don't leave fingerprints. I don't. My home has been burgled twice, and both times when the cops dusted the place they found no fingerprints at all, not even mine. It is possible that Christopher's house was dusted for prints and that none were found.

I know Morello is seriously disturbed, but she's just so sweet and lovable, and in so much pain, that she breaks my heart. I just want to see her get help.

I did have to laugh a little at the Christopher visit scene. He's the sane one and the victim, and yet it's he who gets hustled out of the building ranting like a maniac by a guard in order to protect Morello.
