Storyline
Did you know
- TriviaThe song that plays over several of Taystee's scenes toward the end of the episode is Sam Cooke's recording of "The House I Live In." That 1942 song was best-known as the basis of a 1945 Frank Sinatra short film made toward the end of World War II to combat anti-Semitism. Its writers were both politically active; the composer, Earl Robinson, was blacklisted during the Red Scare of the 1950s, and the lyricist, Abel Meeropol (under the pen name Lewis Allan), also wrote the anti-lynching anthem "Strange Fruit" and adopted the young sons of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg after they were executed for espionage. "The House I Live In" was also the title of a 2012 Eugene Jarecki documentary about inequities in America's drug policies and criminal justice system.
- GoofsIt seems that when Piper wakes up in bed her hair is disheveled and she has no earrings on. After a brief flashback, it comes back to her in bed and suddenly her hair is more coiffed and she is wearing large pearl and diamond earrings.
However she in fact wakes up wearing just one earring, but because of the way the film was edited, it switches sides frequently.
