Episode 42 of "Oz"
s05e02 Laws of Gravity

After taking advice from Rebadow, Miguel decides to "take the blow" - let Guerra stab him in the shoulder and that way the vendetta will end. Due to remorse for his sister's death, Morales forbids Guerra from killing Miguel, but Guerra nearly does anyway, sending Miguel to the infirmary yet again. Tim's ex-wife, Eleanor, joins the staff as liasion to the governor. Tim's basketball buddy Dave Brass works at the entry desk, staying at the prison due to vengeance desire against the person who ordered his tendons cut. McManus tells him that he is responsible, because he told Morales that Brass was going to play. Feeling guilty, and in the mood to play games with his ex, Tim sends Brass in Elly's direction after Glynn refuses to let Brass return to guarding Unit B. Her threat of legal action causes Glynn to move Brass to the cafeteria. Ryan's mother Suzanne, let out of prison in exchange for community service, comes to Oz to teach inmates performance arts. Ryan bullies Busmalis into joining up, while being plagued by fear for his mother's safety. To his dismay, Suzanne shrugs off his request to not work at Oz. He also has to worry about Martin Montgomery, who wants more in exchange for not telling Glynn that Ryan bribed him into being a witness. Thinking on his feet as always, Ryan puts the shamrock necklace in Montgomery's cell, then tells Stanton that Montgomery was the witness who implicated him. Stanton stabs Montgomery in the neck, taking both men off Ryan's hands for a while. Busmalis learns Miss Sally's Schoolyard is on the brink of cancellation, which means Norma probably no longer works with the show. Meanwhile, Rebadow reacts to his grandson's second bout with leukemia by scouring every source of information available to find a cure. He finally does, but realizes he needs money to fund that cure. Said goes beserk after a new Muslim recruit sneaks food during prayers. To help curb his temper, Tim makes the equally unstable Omar Said's podmate, with Said teaching Omar right and wrong. Peter Schibetta is released from the psych ward after nearly 3 years. Pancamo protects him, but is in the need of protection himself after Vern finds out from the feds that Pancamo paid for Hank Schillinger's murder. During a gym melee between Aryans and Sicilians, Vern shanks him in the side. Vern's grief is doubled because of Carrie's death and baby Jewel going to live with Carrie's parents in Montana. Due to Pancamo being uncovered as Hank's killer, Sister Pete informs Beecher that Keller is returning to Oz. Burr gives Hill a ring given to him by Hill's mother, and Hill goes to his mother's funeral. Mukada visits Cloutier and is shaken by his appearance. Timmy Kirk orders Jim Burns to smother Cloutier, but the guards pull him off in the nick of time. Cloutier's spirit begins haunting Burns until Burns agrees to kill Kirk. But when he tries, Hoyt snaps his neck. While Hoyt is in the Hole, Cloutier shows up and begins haunting *him*.
