Sister Pete - Season 6

Season 6

Most of the final season saw Sister Pete deal with Cyril's death sentence. She discovers that Cyril develops Dissociative identity disorder, or another personality through the puppet 'Jericho' that she gave him during his trial. When she asks for the puppet back, he gives it to her, but almost breaks her hand in doing so. She also oversees the evaluation of Keller, who's now on Death Row. When the governor lets Sister Pete know that Cyril will undergo Electroconvulsive therapy, to make Cyril "seem" normal enough to execute, she is distraught, knowing there is nothing she can do to stop it, and takes a walk in the meditative maze. She watches in horror when Leo Glynn stumbles to the Awards Ceremony, covered in blood and dies on the ground. Even though she and Warden Glynn often had disagreements, she agreed that he was "the best man for the worst job".

Finally, she evaluates inmate Lemuel Idzik (Joel Grey), who was sent to Death Row for killing Omar White. When he tells her that he killed Omar to intentionally be put on Death Row after he lost all hope in living after meeting Kareem Said who told him how the universe would ultimately be doomed, she views that as him being self-destructive (and a way of committing suicide) and successfully has his sentenced commuted. Finally, she witnesses the execution of Cyril O'Reily, along with Suzanne Fitzgerald (Betty Buckley), after his stay ends.

Famous quotes containing the word season:

    The season developed and matured. Another year’s installment of flowers, leaves, nightingales, thrushes, finches, and such ephemeral creatures, took up their positions where only a year ago others had stood in their place when these were nothing more than germs and inorganic particles. Rays from the sunrise drew forth the buds and stretched them into long stalks, lifted up sap in noiseless streams, opened petals, and sucked out scents in invisible jets and breathings.
    Thomas Hardy (1840–1928)
