In the Season Three premiere, Beecher is still in the hospital after Schillinger and Keller broke his bones, Alvarez is still in solitary for blinding Rivera, Adebisi is back in the kitchen and McManus starts dating a newly arrived CO. Meanwhile, O'Reily plots revenge against Schillinger for raping his retarded brother Cyril and Beecher uses fingernail retaliation to pay back Metzger for a beating.

In the boxing program, O'Reily spikes Robson's spritzer bottle with drugs and Cyril knocks him out. Rebadow's mother tries to persuade him to meet his son and grandson. Meanwhile, Nappa finds out he's HIV-positive and is moved to Cell Block E. Keller wants to patch things up with Beecher, but Beecher has only one thing on his mind: killing Schillinger. And when young Andrew Schillinger comes to join daddy, Beecher's eyes grow wide.

No one knows who killed Metzger. Meanwhile, McManus hires his friend Sean Murphy as a C.O. and he launches a boxing program. Hill faces a dilemma when a new inmate reveals that he murdered an entire Italian family. Adebisi sticks Nappa with an AIDS-infested hypodermic.

O'Reily and Keller plot to 'take care' of Andrew. McManus is forced by the prison brass to settle Howell's sexual-harassment suit. Hanlon's murder convictions get overturned and he's allowed back in the general population--where he ends up having troubles with Vogel's pal Stanislofsky. Adebisi makes a deal with Pancamo to whack Wangler, while Wangler and Pierce plan to whack Adebisi.

With Cyril scheduled to box Pancamo, O'Reily plans to use his spray-bottle trick, but first he must deal with Cudney. Alvarez sees the photos of Rivera's gouged-out eyes and goes nuts. New roommate Nat Ginzburg offers to be Nappa's secretary in writing his memoirs; Nat then tells Pancamo about Nappa's book plans, and Pancamo orders a hit on Nappa. Said is ostracized by his Muslim ex-followers, and is moved to Beecher's cell.
