11 Biggest WTF Moments From Season 3 Of Orange Is The New Black

4. Healy And Red's Relationship

Perhaps even more shocking than Fig and Caputo hooking up is the somewhat odd coupling of Red and Healy, the seeds of which are sown when Red refuses to allow her family to visit after they lied to her about her shop before launching into an emotional tirade against Healy's mail order bride for not appreciating him enough.

Though there are hints that Red may be using the relationship to get herself back into the kitchen, the pair do seem to manage to build a legitimate bond that even gives Healy the strength to let his unloving wife leave.

Though their relationship is not likely to progress further than the simmering tensions on show in the third season - as stated by Red herself - it was somewhat touching to see somebody appreciating Healy for who he is, even if he does have his own share of crazy that indirectly caused some of the other issues in the season.
