Here we are, girls.

I want to be your friend, Bea.

Even though you shot me to the cops.

What does it feel like, Vera, to finally have everything you've ever wanted?

It's a governor.

I need to know his name.

Neil Jedba. He works for Ferguson. He's her thug.

Drugs have always found their way in.

But you are the only leader who has never trafficked them. The women need

to. But the women want conjugal visit.

You still think she's a hero? The abused is now the abuser.

Is she taking out anti-psychotics?

No. Good. Keep me informed.

President of the IP.

He said, we need a good news story.

Don't back it up.

Fifth time in the prison.

Enrique Guglielmi. I'm Miss Spencer's junior. Where's Nina?

She's in court.

She apologises and she's sent me instead. I am paying for the best in the

business. I expect a good one.

Hi, Kim.

Are you feeling better?

You took Frankie away, you bitch!

It's OK.

We can be left alone.

That's not good news.

I'll spit it out.

Well, under the rules of disclosure, the prosecution has furnished us with a

statement from Nils Jesper. In which he denies my involvement.

Ah, well, Mr Jesper has revised his statement.

He's cut a plea bargain.

Go away, fuck off!

But you need to know that Frankie wanted her parole more than anything.

I didn't take her away.

Excuse me, guard.

Please, guard.

have her psych evaluation paperwork in front of me.

Look, this patient should not have been discharged from the hospital.

Can you have Dr Foster call me and in the meantime email the clinical notes?

Thank you.

We need to talk about Ferguson. You are having a relationship with Frankie

Doyle, a former prisoner.

You've compromised yourself and you've compromised me. I went out on a limb to

have you reinstated.

The relationship with Frankie only started when she left Wentworth.

She was no longer a client.

I intend to recommend to the board that you be dismissed immediately. In the

meantime, you should go home.

I know you feel this is a personal... Do not tell me how I feel!

It's okay.

You're right.

I deserve that.

One more thing.

If Doyle is living with you, that would constitute a breach of her parole.

the wrong place.

Give it a rest, Kaz.

Shouldn't you have stayed in the men's prison?

Yeah, blokes, red right hand, not perfect either.

She said give it a rest.

I didn't think you'd be too far away.

Hawaii here.

Now, if you want to start something, anything, you run it by me first, okay?

Sure. Got it, babe.

Check with the boss.

Howie's got the hots for you.

It's weird.

Well, that's the vibe I'm picking up.

You should use it to your advantage, Bea. Hey, Bea!

I'm serious.

Bea!

Hey, do you know anything about the conjurors yet? Being in the shower, not

gazing into a crystal ball.

Oh, well, could you, like, ask the governor again?

Yeah. Because I'm getting desperate.

Getting?

Everyone's so excited, eh? Yeah, they are.

Good on you, Bea.

How would Vera know that?

How would she know anything about us?

I don't know. It's been pointless to ask her how she found out.

It's the freak winding her up. She's just trying to bluff you.

You've got to deny everything.

And what's she going to tell them anyway? The freak could smell me.

Frankie, listen.

What is she, a fucking beagle?

It's not a bluff.

Right? And I don't want you getting caught up in this.

What do you mean?

You've got to pack your stuff and get back to the bed sit.

Now. You're kicking me out. If Vera reports you to your parole officer and

you're not living where you said you were living, they're going to ship you

straight back there. And I will fucking kill her. Frankie. No, fuck that, Gidge.

I have fought hard for this and you know.

It's the first time I've got a life and I've got a girl and I'm about to start a

job. You've done great, baby.

I'm proud of you, but we need to focus on the practicality. Why? And let that

vindictive shit take it all away. It's not just about you, Frankie.

She thought I was a friend.

You're defending her.

It's my fault.

I fucked everything up.

Come on.

I'm out of here.

Hey, break in.

Frankie, I need to talk to you.

Oh, yes, great. Allow me, Dad.

Hey, look, I understand, all right? I understand. Look, if I can just give you

my number, and when you're ready, then you can give me a call, please.

So what's happening with the conjugal visits?

There will be no conjugal visits.

But you said you'd look into it. You said there'd be no trouble at the press

event. I didn't start that trouble.

Did you even ask Channing?

Yes. There is no conjugal visit program in any women's prison because the

department can't afford the pregnancy and birth-related health costs. But

everyone wants to get pregnant.

It is the perfect antidote for boredom. They'll be popping them out like ping

-pong balls.

According to Mr Channing.

I think it's safe to say the women are going to be pretty pissed off.

I want you to get involved in one of the new education programs, Grooming for

Success.

Grooming for Success?

For me?

A lifer. You can teach the women what you're good at.

What?

Murder. And hairdressing.

I need to keep the women active.

Excuse me, Governor.

Thanks, Smith.

The freak is asking to... Ferguson is asking to see you.

You wanted to see me.

Not particularly, no. It's Mr. Channing I'd like to see.

Mr. Channing's not here.

But he will be tomorrow.

When he arrives, could you convey my request for a meeting?

You're a prisoner now.

You don't get to have meetings with the regional director.

Really?

How's little Joshie going at home?

Well, Lash says he's doing fine, but I'm missing him like crazy.

Hey, how did it go?

We get the rompy-pompy time?

Hey, listen up, ladies.

I'm sorry, but the department said no to conjugal visits.

Why? I'll try my best.

Well, why didn't vinegar juice fight harder for it? Yeah.

I know. Maybe she didn't appreciate being pelted with dirty tampons.

Come on.

Seriously. We don't have to put up with this. If the men at Walford can get

conjugal visits, then so can we.

Some of us might take no for an answer, but I don't, and I won't. Hands up. Who

wants a rose?

You think she gets the whole top dog thing?

She's full of hot air.

She is politically savvy.

She knows how to harness her emotions.

Don't worry, McLean.

I can manage it.

Can I wear it? Yeah.

It's nice.

Yeah, okay.

I was thinking tomorrow morning, ten o'clock. Can you do that?

Good.

Bury that.

I am not going to know what hit him.

I treated that girl like a piece of meat. I love you, Frankie.

The only way I'm getting out of here is in a box. I suppose you can't help but

self-destruct, can you? Not that person, Frankie. I'm whatever person I need to

be. Please, Frankie, please. All

right.

Get my attention.

Don't tell me you're missing this place.

What do you reckon?

What are you doing here?

Don't know.

The truth.

I hope you're respecting your freedom, Frankie.

You should be.

Yeah, well, I don't want to come back here, for sure.

I've been scrammed.

Go on.

Ferguson's lawyer has been calling me repeatedly.

Ferguson's requested to see you, by the way. Well, I'm not interested in seeing

her. You're going to have to deal with it. Deal with what?

Her lawyer has gone straight to the board with an urgent petition.

Ferguson has put up a bloody compelling case. She knows the system.

The board would have to consider it. Consider what?

She's demanding to be released into the general population.

Why? She'd get torn to shreds. Surely the board won't consider it.

Well, they're reviewing the petition.

The argument's convincing.

She's a former governor. They need to be. She's claiming an infringement of

her human rights.

She hasn't been convicted of anything yet.

And is restricted from accessing legal services in the law library, which could

prejudice her sentencing. And it goes on and on. She's not afraid of what the

other prisoners might do to her.

She claims if this prison is run properly, she has nothing to fear.

Liz, can I get your opinion on something? Yeah, sure. What is it? Yeah.

Okay. Touch here and tell me if you can feel anything.

They're not going to bite.

No, but aren't they, folks?

No, I did grow my own with the help of the hormones, but Dickhead Gary wanted

them bigger, so we upgraded.

Fair enough.

Righto. That feels quite nice.

Okay, so around here?

Here? Just there.

Yeah, I can feel something.

Really? Yeah, but look, I'm not an expert. That could easily just be a

fibroid. They're really, really common.

Just go to the doctor, love, and get it checked out.

Yeah. I actually feel quite nice.

I really feel very nice. Okay, that's enough.

I feel a lot nicer tonight.

You sorted?

Looking good.

Smile, have you got the time?

Got a pressing engagement, Proctor.

Who'd say that?

Nearly ten.

Governor Bennett. Look out in the exercise yard.

Who is this?

I don't know what you're talking about.

Who is this?

This is the governor.

Take that thing out of the guy.

Hey,

Bea.

Bea, you guys.

You guys. There's nothing going down in the yard.

Sierra 3, we need backup in the northern yard. Take a team of officers and clear

that yard immediately.

All available officers, report to the excise yard.

I'm joining in.

Are you lucky if she doesn't charge you with assault?

She had my fucking scrotum in a vice-like grip. I wasn't thinking

straight.

At least it won't end up in the six o'clock news here.

I'll make sure of that.

You need to wipe that smile off your face.

What, you want me to lay into her now?

She clearly thinks her shit doesn't stink.

I'm going to make a martyr of her and that's exactly what she wants. I'm just

saying, you better do something.

Out of the way.

I hope you're proud of yourself, Proctor.

That's all you're going to get out of this little stunt.

I'm going to sue you fuckers and you'll end up mopping the dunnies out at

Frankston Locker.

And I believe Mr Jackson will counter-sue for your assault on him.

Bullshit. I've heard the footage.

It clearly showed you provoked him. It clearly shows your guards violently

attacking women. It'll show them doing their job.

We'll let the police decide.

Unfortunately, further charges will affect your sentencing.

You can't pin it on me. It was the voice of the collective of which I am just one

of many here.

Me.

What are you going to do about Proctor?

Me?

She's your problem. She is a shared problem, and we both know that.

Well, maybe you need to rethink conjugal visits. Oh, not that again.

Well, you give me nothing to take back to the women.

So if I was letting you expect me to put it out... Can you?

If the women get conjugal visits.

Can't happen. I told you it would be overrun by pregnancies or abortions.

Probably both.

Not necessarily.

What is it now?

I heard you had a little disturbance in the yard.

That's unfortunate, isn't it?

Your governorship is so new and fragile.

What do you want?

Something to consider for my move into general.

I don't do laundry.

My preference would be to be outside of the kitchen where I can prepare my own

meals. Also, I suggest having me in a unit with a new prisoner as it will

reduce the likelihood of prejudice. Are you listening, Vera?

Pay attention.

You need to be ready.

This is going to impact on you as well.

Oh, God.

What has she done?

Doyle?

Nothing. Is she here?

No.

If you don't believe me, come in and have a look around.

I'm not here to check up on Frankie.

You were right to fire me.

I made a mistake.

I probably made more than one mistake, but please, Vera, don't let my papa ruin

Frankie's life.

OK.

I accept that.

I'm actually here because I have a much bigger problem to discuss. Nothing to do

with you and Frankie.

I've spent most of the day going over her petition. It is frighteningly

convincing.

Well, I'm wondering what her motivation is. I mean, if Bea doesn't kill her,

someone else will.

That's too easy. I want Ferguson to face justice. She dies on my watch, she wins.

The safest thing for all concerned is to get her out of Wentworth and back into

the psych hospital. Yeah, but she passed all the assessments. I mean, they've got

no grounds to hold her there.

Oh, I've got lasagna in the oven.

Would you like some dinner?

But we could continue our conversation, yes.

Yep.

Yeah, yeah, it's opened up.

It's Doyle.

Um... She was at Wentworth last night.

What was she doing there?

I don't know.

One of the officers saw her in the car park.

Come on, I don't have my key.

I'll handle it.

What, you're not letting me in the house? No.

There's someone in here.

Where the hell have you been?

What's with not having your phone on for 24 hours? I needed time to think.

Is that all you were doing?

Yeah.

What, you don't believe me?

I know you were at Wentworth.

That is outstanding.

Why?

I mean, that's what I came to tell you.

It's not easy.

After being inside to know how to be on the outside.

And I love being free.

But it scares the fuck out of me.

And sometimes, like last night, I feel like it's all going to get ripped away,

like it's not really mine.

You know, everything seemed clearer in prison.

And I thought that was somehow comforting, so I went back.

Did it help?

Acknowledging the fear.

Isn't that what you say?

I just wanted to tell you.

Thank you.

Did you pass the salad?

Oh, and the pepper?

He got duck eggs.

Gotta be something the freak wants that's worth the risk. Or she has a

death wish.

Psychopaths aren't suicidal.

They thrive on power.

Yeah, but she's got no power and protection. There's no one she can

manipulate.

Oh, fuck!

She wants to be top dog.

Watch out, Red.

Can you see?

Hey, Ellie.

Hey, come here.

Come on.

What the fuck?

Why? Doesn't matter why.

Fuck off.

Yuck.

Righto.

Okay, is that a medical yet?

Yeah. Yeah, fine, no fracture, just a bruise. Oh, that's good.

I like that colour.

I reckon you'd look better lighter.

You reckon?

I could do it for you. Give you a cut and colour.

You're stalking me now, are you? No, Frankie.

I know you don't want anything to do with me. Yeah, that's why I didn't call

you.

You've got a sister.

So when did this happen?

She's three years old.

I thought you had the right to know each other.

At least know each other exists.

Dr. Foster sent over Ferguson's psychopathy checklist.

I knew she'd manipulated those answers.

Be careful.

You're poking a dangerous spider.

You want her to go back into the psych hospital, don't you? Yes, but not at any

cost.

How are you today, Joan?

I'll feel better when I move into general.

Yes, that's what I'm here to discuss.

The governor has asked me to assess your readiness, the general, from a

psychological viewpoint.

Obviously.

I understand it must be quite boring here for you.

It's an isolation unit. There is no stimulation whatsoever.

You're not concerned about the risk to yourself, physically, from the other

prisoners in general?

Not at all.

Then why is that?

It's not obvious to you?

Because you're superior?

Yes.

You're not assessing, you're scoring.

That's all part of it, I'm afraid, Jane.

Can we continue? Tell you what.

You ask me a question and then I'll ask you one.

Quid pro quo.

You know, that's not how it works, Jane. Oh, you've had some free moves already.

What was your favourite childhood game?

All right.

Is there anything you've never told your parents?

Have you ever been raped?

I'm not answering any of your questions.

You just did.

Now, I understand your reluctance to play. It's a bit close to the bone.

What if I ask you about somebody else?

Vera, for example.

What's your opinion of her, really?

Your professional opinion.

Miss Bennet is an extremely capable governor.

The media love her, and she is respected by all.

You know as well as I do she's weak.

She's a pathetic little creature. She would have languished upstairs forever

as a shit-kicker had I not mentored her.

You'll be fascinated to know that her only act of courage was to euthanize her

own mother.

You really are a cunt.

Thank you.

Of course, none of this recording will be any use to you.

You are recording it.

She memorised the indicators. She recognised keywords and knew exactly

what I was doing.

We can't use that recording.

You wanted to see Smith, Kevin?

Send her in. I'll leave you to it.

A heads-up and a request.

OK, well, you give me the heads-up and I'll see what I can do about that

request.

It is possible that Ferguson will be released into the general population.

Are you kidding?

It's out of my hands. The board is making this decision.

And the request?

If she is released, I need an undertaking. She won't be harmed.

Okay, sure.

Maybe I'll just pull a magic wand out of my arse. If anything happens to

Ferguson, I'll lose my job.

Surely it'd be worth it.

I know Ferguson made your life hell with me.

And maybe it's too early for you to tell, but I'm a very different governor.

So I'm just supposed to trust you then?

I'm supposed to help you?

The women have embraced my new program.

What

the

women want more than anything is a conjugal visit.

So do you think you can find that magic wand?

Free?

Well... I'll give her one week, Max.

Fuck that. It won't take a week to do it. Hey, look it. No one's going to be

doing anything.

I made a deal with the governor.

Well, it must be some deal to stop you from taking out the speak, eh? Yeah. I

reckon you're going to be pretty happy. Are you going to tell us what the deal

is?

Well,

I could, but I'll let her tell you. I have a brief announcement.

You've sent the freak to Africa.

Thank you.

After a proposal from Bea Smith on behalf of the women, I can tell you that

on a trial basis, we will be instituting conjugal visits.

We are the

first women's prison in the country to do so.

Suggested by Smith and agreed to by the Corrections Service, those of you who

wish to participate must also take part in the Contraception and Family Planning

Program. Well done, B.

Woo-hoo!

Good work, B.

OK,

and one more thing I'd like to let you know about, in addition to the other

programs I've introduced, there is a new one starting, Personal Grooming and

Presentation. The hairdressing component will be run by Bea Smith.

I

can't

believe you talked me into this.

It is an insurance policy until Ferguson's trial, if she gets released

into general. I doubt it will last the trial period. You promised the board if

you were appointed governor things would run smoother, and I backed you. That was

before they sabotaged my efforts by considering Ferguson's insane petition.

Just take it.

Fuck. What sort of prison are you running here? That was a threat. We

can't take it lightly. Tell the board what you witnessed.

What?

That you can't control your prisoners? This transfer is not my doing. You have

to tell Ferguson. It can't happen.

Fuck Vera.

I want to stay as far away as possible from that bitch. It is up to you to

close this can of worms, otherwise we will have a death on our hands.

Those newbies are going to freak when they realise it's me showing them how to

apply make-up.

Oh, vinegar tits, cheeky bitch.

Is there a whip in that box?

Oh, it's empty.

God, it's not bloody nailed down in this place.

Hey.

Hey. Look who's here.

I'll have a cat and collar, thanks.

Step into my home.

Push me higher, Daddy!

Hey Frankie, over here.

Hold that, we're coming down.

Let's go say hello.

Look at this, it's your big sister dance.

It's your sister. It's Frankie.

It's better to meet you.

Just so you know, I am not going to pursue that matter between you and

Doyle.

Oh. May I ask why?

Purely pragmatic.

Your job is secure as long as I'm governor.

However long that might be.

Well, I'm grateful.

For Frankie, too.

Bridget.

Those things that Ferguson said about me... Don't give them another thought. I

wanted to ask...

You don't think that I am in any way like her?

The very fact that you can even ask that question means you're not.

Psychopaths have no fear.

No fear.

No.

Hey, Spunky.

Hey, baby.

Hey. Hey-ya.

Thanks for picking me up.

I sweat.

I wanted to.

Isn't that weird for you?

Being here?

Well, it's no weirder than the rest of my life.

You okay?

Yeah, I'm fine.

I've got... I've got some stuff I've got to sort out.

We're not breaking up, are we?

Def's not.

You'll get me worried there for a minute.

I should move out.

I have to, kids.

If I'm ever going to learn how to live on the outside, I need to be able to

stand on my own two feet.

Sounds like a breakthrough.

What took you so long?

I've been giving your petition to your consideration.

And I'll be recommending to the board not to release you into a general

population.

Surely my lawyer's been in touch.

And you can tell her to stop calling.

Because it's not going to happen.

You seem to have forgotten how assiduously I have protected your

interest over the past month.

Joan. Derek.

Whatever you think you have over me, you can forget it.

You have discredited yourself as a witness.

And in the meantime, I've cleaned house.

If anyone wants to investigate me, they'd find nothing.

You know, Derek, you may think you've cleaned house.

You may think you have tied up every loose end, but... you haven't.

You want a tactic?

Release Ferguson into general.

Give her what she wants.

You saw what the prisoners did. She won't survive five minutes.

Let's hope it's not that long.
