This one comes out of nowhere, but it's a strong way to end season five! When we first meet Piscatella, he just seems like a no-nonsense CO coming to Litchfield from the maximum-security facility on the property. But things change in season five when takes it upon himself to break into the prison during the riot. Piscatella starts taking women one by one and suddenly he has Piper, Alex, Boo, Nicky, Blanca, and Red tied up. He verbally abuses them, breaks Alex’s arm, and cuts the Red's hair, exposing her scalp.
Other inmates see the abuse through a door and devise a plan to lure him downstairs to a secret room in the prison. It works, and suddenly the inmates have the power over Piscatella. In the last episode of season five, all of the inmates had been removed from the prison, except for the group with Piscatella. Red decides to let him walk out of the prison. He steps into the hallway and tries to identify himself to the SWAT team that had come in to get the missing inmates. But before he can get a word out, a rookie SWAT team officer shoots Piscatella in the head, killing him immediately.
