Well, to Anastasia he's seemingly great, everyone in the audience will know that there's a villain lurking underneath that nice exterior.

From our Review: One year after it was ruled ineligible to compete as a comedy by the Emmys, Orange is the New Black returns to Netflix with its most effectively wrenching and dramatic season to date, laced with poignant social commentary that's deftly woven into the story. Naturally, there are still plenty of moments of levity, but you'll find the bottom quickly drops out in Season 4 more than ever before. Things that start as amusing tales quickly turn sour and sad and once again the series excels at utilizing its (ever-growing) ensemble of players.
