Recap / Orange Is The New Black S 04 Bunny Skull Bunny Skull

Go To

Aleida struggles to cope with life on the outside after her release from Litchfield, having to rely on Cesar's girlfriend Margarita for help. Meanwhile, Daya feels a little lost without her mother, and Gloria attempts to take her under her wing. Maritza keeps throwing up after Humps made her eat a baby mouse, and the guards briefly wonder if she might be pregnant after spending time with him, while Nicky is blocked from all sources of getting drugs by an overprotective Red and subsequently learns that it was Luschek who got her out of Max by sleeping with Judy King.

Blanca is still being forced to stand on the cafeteria table and Piper tries to help only to end up there herself, and Sister Ingalls attempts to get proof that Sophia is in SHU sadly fails when she sneezes in the shower and her phone falls out from where she had secreted it. Fortunately, Caputo understands what's going on and takes a picture of Sophia himself which he then instructs Danny Pearson to 'leak' to Crystal.

Racial tensions continue to build when 'The Whiz' is shown at movie night and the greenhouse and surrounding gardens need to be taken down for ongoing construction, whereupon a startled worker finds Aydin's dismembered body.


This episode provides examples of the following tropes:

  • Finally Found the Body: Not that anyone realised Aydin was missing in the first place, but his body is finally found in the vegetable garden.
  • Hypocrite: Aleida is disgusted to learn that Margarita is seeing another man while Cesar is in prison, seemingly ignoring the fact that Cesar was with Margarita while Aleida was inside.
  • I Was Never Here: Caputo, when he gives the cell phone with Sophia's picture to Danny.
  • The Outside World: After being excited to leave prison, Aleida finds that being back in the outside world isn't everything that she thought it would be.
  • Potty Failure: As she's forbidden from leaving the cafeteria table, Blanca ends up wetting herself while standing up there.
  • Shout-Out: Tasytee lobbies for The Wiz to be shown at movie night, and as a nod to its controversial status, is the only one looking forward to it.
  • Title Drop: A trickier one to catch than most; Daya discusses painting nails with little motifs on them, alternating between bunny and skull.
  • Vomit Indiscretion Shot: The construction worker tosses his lunch after finding Aydin's hand in the garden.
