5. Caputo And Fig's Affair

They say that opposites attract but the sheer hatred that is evident between Caputo and Figueroa is palpable in the first two seasons of the show. After all, she's the hard-nosed and ambitious businesswoman who is more than happy to trample on the people underneath to get closer to the top, while he believes himself to be more of a hero to the people and strives to do what he can to help his workers when he becomes the new warden.

However, with the introduction of Danny, Caputo begins to feel somewhat marginalised in his role and has to start playing the corporate game to get anything done. Who does he turn to to help him out? Why his longtime nemesis of course.

In Caputo's own words, he can't stand the fact that the he is making himself feel something by "hate-f***ing" Fig, but the pair clearly have a physical chemistry if not a romantic one.

It will be interesting to see if their tawdry affair continues into season four, but it was a definite shock to see them willingly hooking up in the first place.
