Though reasonably quiet throughout the first season, Miss Rosa Cisneros (Barbara Rosenblat) steals the show in season 2’s “Appropriately Sized Pots.” Through flashbacks in the season’s eighth episode, we learn about Rosa’s life as a bank robber, which ultimately landed her in Litchfield Penitentiary. We’re introduced to a young Rosa, played wonderfully by Stephanie Andujar, who’s in love with the thrill of robbing banks and the smell of money. Back then, Rosa was a member of a four-man robbing crew after being introduced to robbery by her boyfriend Marco (Alfredo De Quesada) who tells her they must kiss before and after a robbery. She believes she’s cursed because all of the men she kisses post-robbery die. The only member of the group to survive is Tony, who she doesn’t kiss after a robbery because she finally gets arrested.

Episode 8 begins with Healy (Michael Harney) telling Miss Rosa (Barbara Rosenblat) that the Doc will not cover the surgery she needs; she is forced to continue chemotherapy treatment instead, convincing her she will die soon. This episode concentrates on the bank-robbing, money-loving Rosa. The first flashback is Rosa’s first bank robbery and she is nervous as her boyfriend, Marco (Alfredo De Quesada), hands her a gun that she later finds out is not loaded. The two kiss and Marco tells her they must always kiss before and after a robbery. After they rob the bank with two other guys and hop into the getaway car, the group sees that Marco has been shot and he dies in Rosa’s arms shortly after. Rosa’s love of money increases after every robbery. After robbing another bank, Rosa kisses one of the other men, who has a heart attack and dies shortly after their post-robbery kiss.
