This time it there seems to be a 22, 23 and 24. | Sonia tries to increase the women's dissatisfaction with Judy. Pixie is released from solitary as promised by Joan: she instantly senses the tense atmosphere in the rec room. New cell allocations are given out:- Judy is to share with Sonia, Reb with Pixie and Belinda with Helen. Rod sticks to his story, and Colleen is charged with culpable driving. [*] Minnie is worried that Cass has been put in a single cell, as Joan visits Cass to remind her through the spyhole of her cell of some of her recent misfortunes. As Joan leaves work, she tells Rick to keep an eye on Judy. Colleen gets Meg to come to the police station to bail her out. Helen hears Belinda talking in her sleep and reliving the accident that blinded her: the mention of Jerry Turner reminds Helen where she has seen Belinda before. Helen finds out it was Belinda who informed on him. When she arrives home and meets her father there, we can see that Joan's house is being watched by a man hiding in the shrubbery. Judy is told to keep the women in line for Major Ferguson's visit with a hint that Joan could still have Cass put away if anything goes wrong. Rick tells Meg her report is out of date, as Joan has restored privileges. Mr Schumann visits Pixie: he wants an explanation why Pixie stopped coming in to work, and what he can do to help get her work release re-instated. Reb gets a visit from her partner-in-crime Gary: he hands her a cigarette with a message written on the inside of the paper "GET READY I'M GOING TO GET YOU OUT". Joan has a visitor from the Department responding to Meg's report: to her dismay, it is Erica Davidson ![]() ![]()
