Wentworth Prison

Captive (1x6)

Data di messa in onda: Ott 02, 2013

This week, we learn more about deputy prison governor Vera Bennett's past and present home life. As she attempts a new, more made-up look, hoping that it will catch the eye of prison officer Matthew "Fletch" Fletcher, we flash back to her teenage years. Vera's mother catches her applying lipstick and tells her not to bother, cruelly implying that there is no point in Vera trying to glam herself up. Present-day Vera tries to flirt with Fletch as they chat about a forthcoming volleyball game, but he is wary – doesn't her boyfriend mind? Again, she slips back into the past and remembers kissing a boy at the end of a teenage date. "Vera!" her mother shouts from the porch. "Will you get inside and stop making such a fool of yourself?" In the exercise yard, Toni appears, now out of solitary. When she sits with a different group, however, the women realise that she has been moved to a new unit. "Remember who your friends are, mate," cautions Franky discreetly. Later, Jacs sits Toni down for a chat. "Anyone over there going to look out for you? Keep your secrets?" she asks. What Jacs really wants to know is who supplied Toni with the drugs that caused her recent relapse, and she has a kettle of boiling water that may help... Doreen catches up with Toni later in the canteen and returns some of her belongings. She apologises for causing Toni to end up in solitary and separated from her daughter Kaiya. "You set me up," Toni points out. "I didn't want to – I didn't know what else to do," Doreen replies, devastated. As Franky's law tutoring with Erica continues, Franky keeps bringing the conversation back to Toni, now vulnerable without her support network. Franky feels that restoring Toni to her former unit is the right thing to do, but Erica insists that, with Kaiya gone, Toni has lost her privileges. As their conversation becomes more intense, Vera overhears and thinks that governor and prisoner are becoming too close. A television report by Hayley, the journalist who has been hanging around the prison, claims that a source has cast aspersions on Erica's integrity. The unnamed speaker has accused Erica of using the governor's job as a stepping stone to a political career and of employing unorthodox methods. Erica suspects Fletch, but Vera quickly defends him and suggests Franky as the possible culprit. Will Erica track down the real source of the claims? What is Vera hiding from her colleagues? And what is Jacs' plan for Toni?
