In the episode 11 is told the story about Suzanne and this is simply the best episode of the entire series so far, the tense history of her and the impeccable performance of Uzo Aduba in this character ,if it were not enough happens a terrible things in prison too at the same time, something really bad to make us think about that for a long time. The best characters in the series has their most tense and dramatic moments of the entire series, including an amazing scene with Red and another one with Mr Healy, it's amazing how they put everything in the same episode. A tragic end to simply kick heart and break in two, Completely extraordinary.

Warning: Spoilers
Uzo aduba and lori petty are absolutely spectacular in this episode. From suzanne's backstory in part with her fight with kukudio and lolly's final scene with healy, both actresses do such an amazing job at bringing their characters to life. When they found lolly in the time machine with the potato, my heart broke.
I cannot say enough about the themes and development within the episode as well. Humphrey continues to be such an interesting force, as he seems extremely obsessed with the grotesque and forces inmates to participate in it. The contrast between piscatella, whom many believe to be an antagonist and the other co's (besides bayley and coates), remains extremely interesting to me. Although piscatella has been calling the shots, what he does is much more humane than what the other officers do. This episode continues to ask the question of how prisoners should be treated?

This episode is powerful, relevant and thought-provoking.

In my opinion, best of the season and best of the show (yet).
First of all, I'd like to say that Uzo Aduba is one of the most talented actresses on TV. She plays a complicated character that, even though being childlike and funny, doesn't feel like a caricatured version of a special person/person with a mental illness. It feels true instead.
This episode gives us the backstory on Suzanne a.k.a Crazy Eyes, and shows how her innocence and mental condition ended up making her a criminal. It makes us feel sorry about her without being cheesy, even though we know what she did was wrong.
It also showcases situations where debating the punishment concept feels necessary. Are guards monsters for making inmates fight between themselves and betting on it although the inmates aren't doing anything wrong? Or are they just doing their job, since the inmates are criminals and they're in prison for punishment?

An episode after many episodes that I can say is very, very good.
