It had been way too long since the witty and raunchy ladies of Litchfield had entertained our Netflix screens. That was, until Friday June 17th, when our worlds and theirs turned upside down for another action-packed season. I thought it'd be best to react with the rest of the world with 85 of my thoughts from watching season four of "Orange Is The New Black."
*Warning: Spoilers Ahead (Separated by episode)*
Episode 1

2. *Plot picks up with no ‘here’s what happened last season’* I definitely should have re-watched season three, where’s Sophia? What happened to Nichols? Where did Ruby Rose go again?
3. Oh, right. Everyone has low key escaped prison, and instead of actually running away, they go for a beach day (obviously?). And let's not forget Alex is about to get killed--what a comeback!
4. And so we return to Litchfield, a place where dreams, and sometimes people, go to die at. How fun.
5. Is Piper going to be any less annoying this season?…Nope. You are not “gangsta with an a” girlie!
6. Is this hitman’s ring tone really Daniel Powter’s one hit wonder “Bad Day”? Well, isn’t that ironic.
7. Crazy Eyes and bae out on the town. Are they really going to be the only ones who actually run away?
8. Wow, this Officer Piscatella is a bit pissy.
9. And now I can never look at a garden the same way again :’)
Episode 2

11. TBT to Larry, am I right? I do kind of miss seeing life not in the prison, but not that idiot.
12. Machetes and birthday cake, what a combo! The Dominican Republic looks pretty lit for a 5-year-old's birthday party.
13. Judy King! I’m confused; is she supposed to be a ginger Martha Stewart? Or a Paula Deen?
14. To be honest, this whole snoring plot line just isn’t doing it for me; pick it up writers! And now they’re romanticizing gas stations? What is this season?!
15. Nooooo, Pennsatucky/Doggett (what do we call her now?) is just trying to help a girl out!
16. Piper got a henchman now too? I cannot see this going well.
Episode 3
17. Note to OITNB: If I have time to leave the room, walk down a flight of stairs, grab a snack, walk back up, and return to the theme song still playing, it's TOO long.
18. Taystee, back at it again with the biz-pro blazers.
19. Let the ginger wars begin! This southern belle has nothing on Russian Red.
20. Well, Mr. Sex Offender letting little Asian petitioners into your home: if your crime really wasn’t that bad, maybe lose the creepy mustache.
21. Oh no, Soso is soso gonna get in trouble for stereotyping her prison wife.
22. No offense Chapman, but your “thug” life is going to end real quick if you make enemies with a drug kingpin's daughter.
23. Taystee better *watch* her "Game of Thrones" references, because I can only catch up with so many shows at a time.
24. Told you Brook like the stream! I'm not going to cry you a river over that one, but hey, for once they mended a story line within an episode.
25. I forgot how on point the closing songs are.
Episode 4

27. For one time in her life, Lolly actually needs to be paranoid.
28. Alex: Can you keep a secret? Red: I love secrets. *Becomes show's most relatable character*
29. Am I actually feeling bad for Sam Healy? What is this season coming to?
30. Sure, because being a pacifist means tackling someone to the ground. Say "Aloha" to the dirt gf.
31. Stop it, Poussey helping with the cooking class melts my heart just like that butter.
Episode 5

33. Linda is the Dolores Umbridge of "Orange Is The New Black" and she needs to be killed off.
34. Maritza is a low key baller, who knew?
35. Pahahahaha leave it to Piper to accidentally start a white supremacy game, is it rude to say 'karma'?
Episode 6

37. Soso and Poussey are actually so adorable, they beat out any other prison romance especially because Piper is not a part of it.
38. How is everyone’s eyeliner in prison so on point?
39. Now that we’re at it, eyebrows too! Between Red, Alex, Piper, and the duo of Maritza and Flaca, eyebrow game on fleek.
40. Oh hell no is Luschek being forced to trade his "services" to Judy King. My whole body is cringing.
41. Chapman just started a war, Nichols is back on drugs and Sophia might be dead? This season sure escalated quickly.
Episode 7
43. The things we do for tabloid pics, I swear. Do you think this was a real competition when Martha or Teresa from "The Real Housewives" was in prison?
44. This could be the most depressing back story ever, all she’s doing is making the neighborhood coffee! Stupid gentrification getting in the way.
45. Nikki's back and already causing trouble, one poop crime at a time.
46. When the Latino Gang goes 0 to 100 REAL QUICK. I can't watch.
Episode 8

48. The only redeeming quality of Piper is her adorable brother Cal, his banjo-playing hippie soul gives me hope. :’)
49. That man candy THOUGH! For once the construction worker is the one getting cat called, good work OITNB.
49. “I’m the friendliest racist you’re ever gonna meet.” Really, Judy King? Reel. It. In.
50. They all smoke CRACK now? Super casual, like just a first time prison meth deal.
51. Ah snap, Judy King is kissing Black Cindy?
52. AND IF YOU COULDN’T HATE LINDA MORE.
Episode 9

54. I'm sorry are we just not going to talk about how Alex and Piper did crack once and can just not do any drug again?
55. Why on earth does a guard not put on his resume that he speaks perfect Spanish? That’s how you know homie is pure evil.
56. I KNEW IT. C.O. Humphrey is so psychotic.
Episode 10

58. There's this magical thing called cruel and unusual punishment on, what was it again? The Bill. of. Rights.
59. Leave it to The Wiz to be the final fuel of a race war, are you kidding? Diana Ross just wanted to dance.
60. Piscatella is really starting to piss me off (it's just too easy with a name like that).
61. The hot guy found the body of course, now he's scared forever.
62. Side Note: Why do inmates almost always wear long sleeves? It has to be hot out doing that manual labor.
Episode 11

64. This Josh guy deserves to be in prison just for that ridiculous grey zip-up vest underneath a suit combo. Plus, his face is just one of those you want to punch.
65. OMG, why on God’s green earth is this elderly promiscuous time happening? There are so many wrinkles involved.
66. 10/10 would endorse the Nichols/Pennsatucky friendship.
67. And I thought Pornstache was the nastiest C.O. ever, Humphrey is the worrrrrst.
Episode 12

69. Gotta love the "Sherlock" reference, Benedict Cumberbatch's adoring fans know no bounds.
70. Officer Bayley is literally the sweetest, we need more of him in the world.
71. Was the “Millennials really are the worst” comment necessary?
72. Hate to break it to you Lorna, but you are the crazy one.
73. No no no no no no no no no no no this cannot be real. You CANNOT take away the best character on this show.
74. Nope, I'm not crying. It's just allergies, or dust, or me realizing we have no good candidates for the presidential election.
Episode 13
75. This is so messed up. Also, Norma can sing?
76. “I've sat in chairs and they’ve broken right under me”? Such amazing consoling!
77. Twenty minutes in and tears are still strolling.
78. Humps is now bringing in a gun? Because THAT'S the proper way to handle things.
79. Why is there a poetry slam right now? Red, this is not the time.
80. I'm really not into this whole Nikki/Lorna argue time right now either; back to the main events, please!
81. Don't show me Poussey being all happy in a NYC club when I know she's gone forever, the pain is too real.
82. Why is no one helping Soso? This girl is a wreck and a half.
83. Wow, if this show is not a huge metaphor for everything wrong in the world, then I don't know what is.
84. Caputo, nooooooooo. Say her name!
85. My. Jaw. Is. Dropped. What. Is Happening. Why do we have to wait another year to find out??
Until next season...RIP Poussey Washington :'(
