have put faces to the larger scope of real-life inmates who are discarded in Psych wards or left without proper cognitive care inside America's prison industrial complex.
Heading into the final season, Red and fellow kitchen boss Gloria Mendoza had each been sent to the SHU and, despite Gloria's attempts to keep her cell neighbor sharp, Red is never the same once she is let out. The final season sees her mind fading from dementia, which was brought on by delirium from solitary confinement.
"That was the only time I’ve ever lost control on set after shooting something," Stone, growing emotional, says of the season six finale. "I couldn’t have anticipated how strange that was. I didn’t have any lines. All I had to do was be dragged down the hall and hold my belly and cry. But I have found those lines between real life and acting life difficult; it’s a strange job that we do and sometimes your body doesn’t know the difference.
In the end, both women are sent to the cell block nicknamed "Florida" with the older and mentally ill inmates. The owners of Litchfield, which is a private prison, shut down the Psych ward and their solution is to send the elder inmates or those who need extra care to the same cell block to live out the rest of their days. Though Suzanne is also in Florida, she is able to get the care she needs because she has a lifeline in her parents on the outside.
