The last season of Orange is the New Black had a tough job wrapping up storylines of so many beloved characters. And though there are some sad endings, what’s great is that everything feels realistic.

After being released from jail, Piper (Taylor Schilling) has to learn how to live a normal life in the real world. Taystee (Danielle Brooks) struggles with depression after losing her case. Gloria (Selenis Leyva) helps an ailing Red (Kate Mulgrew) after she’s released from solitary confinement.

Though she only appears in four episodes, the best storyline this season – as it feels the most relevant at the time of release – is Maritza’s (Diane Guerrero). She faces deportation after discovering she’s an undocumented immigrant. With Trump’s immigration policies, her story is even more emotional, and Guerrero plays her perfectly.

Final say: A good way to go. ★★★★★
