<P> At the end of the third season, one of Kubra's enforcers, Aydin Bayat, confronts Alex in the greenhouse, ready to kill her . At the beginning of the fourth season, Lolly returns to find Aydin garrotting Alex with his belt . Instinctively, Lolly storms in, pushes him off of her and stomps him until he is unconscious and presumed dead . Later that night, Alex finds Aydin still breathing, and smothers him to death before dismembering his body and disposing of his remains in the prison garden the following morning with Lolly and Frieda . She is concerned with Lolly's actions, when she continues to insist that Aydin was a government agent, but she tries to stop Frieda from killing Lolly to silence her . Alex becomes consumed with guilt for killing Aydin, and tells Red about it . When Nicky returns from max, Alex declines a proposition for sex with her, but ends up smoking crack with her and Piper in the garden . While they were high, Piper shows her the swastika brand on her arm, and Alex tells Piper and Nicky that she killed Aydin . She helps Red and Norma turn Piper's brand into a window, while Piper apologized to her for ignoring her concerns about Kubra trying to kill her . After joking with Piper about who would give Bayley a handjob in exchange for burgers, the two once again rekindle their relationship . When Aydin's remains are found, Alex expresses disappointment that he may not be identifiable . She attempts to confess to Piscatella, but is prevented from doing so after Healy turns Lolly in for Aydin's death . Alex starts spreading notes around the prison identifying Aydin; after Piper discovers her planting a note in the garden, she tells Alex to gather the notes so she isn't implicated . At the end of the season, Alex and Piper attempt to burn the notes in a garbage can, but after they light up the notes, inmates participating in the riot kick over the garbage can, spreading the notes all over the floor, although the riot means they are not discovered . </P> <P> In the fifth season, Alex and Piper help Linda Ferguson avoid being taken hostage by the rioters, and joins her in organising a non-participation movement in the exercise yard . Later, she and Piper are kidnapped by Piscatella, and bear witness to his torture of Red . During the torture, Piscatella brutally breaks Alex's arm, not knowing that the incident was secretly filmed by Gina, one of Red's girls, and uploaded to the internet . Whilst hiding in the bunker, Piper proposes to Alex, and she joyfully accepts . The bunker is then stormed by the CERT team . </P> <P> In the sixth season, Alex is absent for several episodes, having last been seen being dragged lifelessly out of the bunker by the CERT officers . However, it later emerges that the officer that had discovered her had in fact knocked her unconscious, and she was later taken to hospital to get treatment for her arm . Upon her return, she reveals herself to a shocked and hugely relieved Piper, who had believed she was dead due to a misunderstanding of a message from Red, and the news that an inmate had died during the riot (whom Alex reveals was actually Maureen Kukudio, whose wounds had become infected). The two are happily reunited, and Alex helps Piper deal with Madison Murphy, her bullying bunk mate . Wanting to straighten out after her release from prison, Alex makes an application to business school . However, she finds herself being drawn into Madison's new operation, which she eventually has to join full time after Madison starts threatening Piper's leaving date, becoming a right - hand woman for Carol Denning, Block D's gang boss, by impressing her with her prior career in the drug trade . She is genuinely thrilled when she learns of Piper's early release, but organises a surprise wedding with Nicky and Lorna so that Piper can have her prison wedding before leaving . Alex is then made to join the kickball team, where a knife fight is planned . However, the fight does not go ahead, and Alex enjoys the game . </P> <P> Sam Healy (played by Michael J. Harney)--Healy is an experienced Corrections Officer and supervisor at Litchfield Penitentiary who has a Master of Social Work and acts as prison counselor to many of the inmates . He is initially presented as someone who, though rigid, genuinely wants to help the inmates under his care . Due to his preference for avoiding confrontation, Healy is contemptuously referred to as "Samantha" by Caputo, who feels that Healy is not tough enough on the inmates . Healy generally appears weary and often tells the inmates what they want to hear so they will leave him alone--he later admits to his own counselor that he is dissatisfied with his job, having gone into it with such idealistic notions of changing the world, but his experiences have left him cynical . Despite this, he still shows a sense of justice, such as forging evidence to show that Suzanne (who was going to take for the fall for an assault she did not commit) was in fact innocent . Healy has an outspoken personal vendetta against lesbians for unknown reasons, cautioning Piper at the beginning of the series not to be involved with lesbian activity . While early on he appears particularly sympathetic towards Piper and even acts biased in her favor, he increasingly dislikes her as he hears rumors of her alleged lesbian activities . His hatred of lesbians, first presented as a quirk, is later revealed to be a deep - seated pathological problem when he explosively sends Piper to solitary confinement purely because she was dancing closely with Alex . In the fourth season, it is revealed that his hatred of lesbianism was imbued in him by his father, who believed that it was a disease akin to schizophrenia . His increasing disdain of Piper culminates in his acquiescence to Tiffany Doggett's attempt to murder her in the first - season finale . </P>
