Wentworth Prison

A new governor arrives in Wentworth and, dissatisfied with the lax regime, sets her sights on ridding the prison of drugs and replacing top dog Frankie Doyle with Bea Smith.

Under pressure to maintain her top dog position in the wake of Ferguson's crackdown on drugs, Frankie's determination to stay on top has fatal consequences for a new inmate.

Franky has a serious rival for the top job with the return to prison of Simmo, Jacs Holt's former second-in-command. Doreen and Nash grow closer.

Bea suspects three new inmates of being behind an attempt to kill her by the Holt family.

Bea makes Simmo fear for her daughter's safety. Boomer accidentally sparks a lockdown by getting trapped in the laundry shoot. Maxine refuses to work for Franky.

Simmo's attempt to kill Bea ends in tragedy when Ferguson intervenes, while Liz faces her greatest dilemma - whether or not to turn Franky in.

Driven to distraction by personal problems, both Maxine and Vera take drastic action. The cancellation of the garden project leaves Doreen pregnant and without Nash's support.

An increasingly isolated and paranoid Franky resorts to extreme measures to expose the informer. Drug tests are ordered when Doreen's pregnancy test is discovered.

Bea manipulates Maxine's dependence on her medication to inveigle her into Franky's gang. Will goes after Harry Smith after he and Rose are driven off the road.

As Liz struggles to adjust to life on the outside and reconnect with her children, inside her friends try to prevent Boomer arranging for Liz to be beaten up in.

Bea puts her plan to escape and kill Brayden Holt into action.

As the police and Will search for Bea, she closes in on Brayden Holt. Fletch learns the secret of Ferguson's past but makes a fatal error of threatening her.
