Orange Is The New Black Season 2 Episode 1 "Thirsty Bird"



The episode begins with Piper in SHU and it looks like she's having a meltdown.She is handcuffed and led into a caged bus. Later she learns she'll be getting on an airplane with other prisoners and it looks like it's going to be all about Piper in this episode.

 On the plane, she sits next to Ellen DeGeneres lookalike, she offers her the Vaseline she stored in her ear. As if the creepiness is not enough, one of the male prisoners they picked up keeps staring and making weird comments at her.

The next morning, they arrive in Chicago Prison. Piper moves into her cell and again gets in trouble with her bunkmates when she accidentally steps on the bug that seems to be the means of transporting cigarettes.

She sees Alex in the prison yard but didn’t talk to her due to restrictions. Piper didn’t want to wait any longer, she makes a deal with the creepy male prisioner on the plane to give Alex a note in exchange for her panties

Meanwhile, Mazall (Piper’s bunkmate) keeps trying to find a love connection with Piper, she pressures her into giving her birth details. Alex meets Piper, she tells her Pennsatucky survived the attack.

Alex is relived but still confused on why she’s transferred. Alex tells her they’re here to testify against the drug-dealing kingpin and her former boss, Kubra. Alex tells Piper testifying against Kubra is dangerous and tells her to lie. She goes against the advice of her lawyer Howard, Larry’s dad, and lies in court.

After the trial, she sees Alex without her prison uniform. Alex apologizes and tells her she took her lawyer’s advice and testified against Kubra and is released, now Piper may face charges of perjury and additional sentence.

we learn from several flashbacks about young Piper. Piper skips school to accompany her best friend to an R rated movie. While waiting outside to illegally get the tickets, she sees her dad with kissing another woman. She tells her mom about it but instead grounds her for watching an R rated movie.

Favourite Quote
Piper-“All right. I owe my Bunkie, who takes four shits a day, yes, four, out in the open, I owe her a cigarette-toting roach or she’s gonna sic tattoo face on me”.
