SPOILER ALERT: This contains spoilers for the season 5 finale ofOrange is the New Black.
Here are the eight questions we came away with after that cliff-hanger ending.
1. Who, if anyone, survived the S.W.A.T.
teams assault on the pool bunker?
After sweeping the jail several times, the S.W.A.T.
Whats the future of Litchfield?
Will part of the show still be set there?
If so, will any of the changes Taystee bargained for be implemented, even though negotiations fell apart?
Theres also the question of management because theres little doubt in our mind that Caputo is done for.
IfLitchfield is done for, where will the inmates be sent?
Though it seems like a lifetime ago, wehaveswitched prisons at least once before in theOrangecanon.
Whos to say it couldnt happen again?
This leaves us with two probable scenarios.
The Litchfield we know cant last forever; nothing does.
4.Which inmates will get extended sentences?
We already know Daya (Dascha Polanco) got sent to Max, but what about Maria?
Her only real bargaining chip is that she released the guards.
Frieda shot guards with darts, and the skinhead posse kidnapped Judy (Blair Brown).
Could Taystees decision to prolong the riot make her semi-responsible for the damage caused, including Piscatellas demise?
Though Red and the gang captured Piscatella, theres little chance theyd rat on each other.
The same is true for Suzanne, whos unlikely to tell anyone Maureen caused Humphreys stroke.
team just bad at math?
However, we also know that theyre erroneously counting Linda (Beth Dover) as a prisoner.
So, they should have come up with 11 missing prisoners, right?
How did the S.W.A.T.
team screw that up?
6.How did Frieda build/furnish that bunker without anyone noticing?
Will we see Healy again?
At the end of season 4, C.O.
This explains why we didnt see him in the time-compressed fifth season.
Will Alex and Piper actually make it to the altar?
