So much good TV tonight! But I am super interested in this episode so I am going to recap it first. By the end of this episode all seven plants will be behind bars, and Steve will be the first to lose his shit.
F300
Brooke is going into her pod and we are hearing the correction officer tell her and other inmate the rules. If the live on the top they shower on top if they live on the bottom they shower on the bottom. I presume we are being show this because Brooke is going to break this rule. The pod takes an immediate dislike to Brooke before she even gets to her cell. Jazmyn is in the same pod. Jazmyn can’t stand the smell of the food. It makes her vomit. Jazmyn and Brooke can’t seem to stay away from each other.
Vivian is the last of the women to go undercover. She thinks that the system is working well because her sister was arrested for drugs and it scared her straight and she is on the right path now. One success story does not me the system in working well. When she gets to her pod, they are on lockdown. She meets her bunkie whose name is Rosie but everyone calls her solution. That sounds kind of welcoming. The warm welcome continues after lockdown, all the girls think she is really pretty. She gets lots of attention. Brooke is pissed. She didn’t get this reaction. Jazmyn jumps right on VIvian and all three girls eat lunch together the first day. The producers remind Jazmyn that she was told not to do exactly what she did. The entire pod notices.
H200
Mark is the last one to go in out of the men. I wonder if he will last a night. He’s the superfan. Josh is the Pod Boss of the whites pod (WOODS) he has tons of rules and regulations for his pod. Mark doesn’t even know his cover story. He is not in the cell five minutes before Rocker, the blacks Pod boss tells Josh he is going to fuck with the new white guy. Rocker claims to recognize Mark and accuses him of stealing his pig and his bike. But then everyone laughs.
David is the black male assigned to integrate into the blacks (kinfolks) pod. He a cop and kind of cute. Rocker is the pod boss. Rocker has decided to single out a white kid named Brandon. He taunts his meth face. He makes snide comments. And eventually he just wants to beat his ass because Brandon told Rocker he wants to fight him. Clearly, the kid is on meth or something now because Rocker is a full three times his size. Rocker feels he has to fight. The gauntlet was thrown. Rocker and the kid have a fight is you want to call it that. Rocker eventually got a decent hit or two in. No blacks went to the fight but somehow David is getting the wrath of Rocker for not going with him.
H100
Steve has already found out that the guys in his pod get acid in the form of love letters doused with perfume. The perfume apparently keeps the acid from being detected. That didn’t take long. After hearing one conversation, Steve (who I repeatedly try to call David and can’t seem to stop doing it) feels that he has completed his mission. He gives the sore shoulder sign but does not say, “My shoulder is killing me.” Eventually two goofy white guys with clipboards show up “to make sure everyone has signed releases.” Instead of Steve saying he has not, he ignores them and tells us in voice over that he is pissed that these “chucklenuts” are his backup. He’s furious. The producers have no choice to leave. Then Steve gives the signal again and again apparently hoping this time they will send in Mr. T. All he had to do was engage in conversation and get pulled out for an interview. Then he gets up and starts talking to the camera. He says, “My shoulder is killing me. Let’s see how that works.
A guard showed up with a phone number for Steve to call. Because that is not suspicious at all. This is the phone call we saw on the previews where he loses his mind. And now he has a huge target. It’s a young female on and he is really rude to her and issues the whole ten minute threat. People can hear what he is saying. he’s an idiot.
Is Abner all alone in his pod? We hardly saw him! We just got started and it’s already a hot mess everywhere.
Abner has been trying to get in with the leader of the blacks, but he can’t get too close because he is in the Chicano pod. He needs to also focus on Rudy the boss of his pod.
Next week: Someone stole some money off Jazmyn’s phone card. Abner gets into it with the whites. Mark is summoned to a meeting of the WOODS.
Steve is So tough and smart. There has never been a better narc.
Said no one ever
Steve – I cannot stand that man, he definitely isn’t right in the head.
Vivian – You would’ve thought she was Beyoncé the way the women flocked to her ? she’s extremely beautiful though.
David – Rocker has took to David and it’s definitely putting him in a difficult situation because he’s trying to get information, stay out of mess but also maintain a peaceful relationship.
Brooke – Brooke get over yourself boo, your here to do a job and nothing else.
Jazmyn – I think it’s between her and Steve who blows their cover because she just doesn’t give a damn.
Mark – I’m scared for him
Steve is scared shitless in there and wants it now. Apparently, he now knows how ALL the drugs are getting in, albeit, we only saw about acid getting in. But apparently, he has seen enough and knows all and his mission is complete. Hes a pussy.
I dont understand the women participants gluing themselves onto one another so quickly and against orders.
Why are the men housed in those larger rooms that sleep 8 or 10 instead of in 2-person rooms as the women are? It seems there might be less trouble with gangs and fighting if the men weren’t in those larger rooms.
It’s funny how Steve acts all tough and thinks he is so tough, but then he wants out on the second day, trying to justify it by saying he has completed his mission by learning one source of drugs getting in.
Hi TT! I know you hate when you run down your opinions of people, but I think it’s ok in this instance? 🙂
Vivian— positive lady and her relationship with her son is cute!
Steve— what a total dick loser. GTFO ‘tough’ guy!
Blonde—not scrolling to remember her name. Next.
Abner— he’s ready to rumble, isn’t he?
WHAT is wrong with dude Steve? He thinks he so much smarter than anyone else, heard just a little bit, now going to go run tell that to the warden, mission accomplished? They need to pull him outa there & quick! Get rid of him, bye. Period.
You could tell Steve was going to be a “special idiot” from the beginning with his request to be separate from everyone else participating, “the unknown equation”.
His introduction video showed his paranoia with the extreme amount of security cameras at his home/property and then giving his girlfriend the quiz about what to do if there’s an intruder, “shoot till there’s no bullets left”.
I just can’t believe he’s any good as a private investigator doing undercover work because of the way he’s acting in the pod, he’s drawing so much attention to himself. That’s probably why he said he’s been shot at while doing undercover work, he’s too obvious & seems proud of the drama/confrontation he creates.
Steve being a lone wolf is actually a good thing at this point. Even if he goes off screaming about 60 days in, there is no one in his pod for him to out. I think they need to just remove him from the show immediately. Thank him for his groundbreaking information and send him home.
Ugh steve makes my skin crawl, he is an angry little man with a big case of napoleon syndrome. He thinks hes bigger, badder, and smarter than everyone and hes a moron.
I need to start watching this show. I wish I could BE one of the undercovers — an old white lady might fool them all!
But WHY IN THE HOLY FUCKALL would ANYONE want to do acid in jail? It makes no sense! (I can understand pot and opioids, other drugs don’t seem suited for jail , but ACID???)
I would rather be stung in the face by an angry swarm of bees than do acid in jail. I’ve been in jail quite a few times before I got clean and honestly, the only drug I would do in there would be opiates and benzos. I could not even imagine being on an upper or a hallucinogenic. Can you imagine being spun out on meth in jail? Or having any kind of trip? It would be the worrrrrst.
This episode had me yelling “idiot!” at the TV everytime Steve opened his idiot mouth! Hopefully the warden laughs him right out w his earth shattering info ? Jazmyn is way too giddy to be useful in any way. I bet she will blow cover before Steve.
Was that Pastor Matt from last season in there AGAIN in the Steve pod???
TT do you know if they tap out early by choice, do they still get some part of their payment?
Steve what bum I don’t believe a word of what he claims. Just a scarred wimp can’t wait tell they through him off the show
Steve is the worst type of person to have in this position. The jail failed in deciding the type of personality to have in this spot. He is a dirty, untrustworthy type of person. Nobody likes him. Obviously. !are he needs a beat down. Gross. His girlfriend/wife is obviously terrible too.
Grrr Steve is a pussy he was just scared of being in there that’s why he got himself kicked out what what happened to him if he actually got locked up he would be one of those pussies that check them self into protective custody
Love the description of Steve!!!
GLAD to see everyone sees through his weakling antics, and can tell Steve is a pussy of the highest sorts. What an absolute coward. That dude literally needs to leave this world for the good of humanity. I Guarantee he’s the standard 5’8 tall, scared pussy type, driving a pick up truck around our roadways like an ahole.
Omg, where do I start? Steve, he needs to go back to his cabin and finish his manifesto. Out of all the times I’ve had the unfortunate experience of jail ( quite a while ago in recovery for 13 years now), there’s no way any one of us would flat out lay out the plan of a smuggling op. Let alone on extremely obvious cameras! The girls…pretty much is the way they depict it. Gangs? Can’t comment on that one, never been in that life. Good show except for the constant retelling of every. single. scene. Ugh
