Netflix released a new trailer for Orange is the New Black‘s forthcoming fourth season on Tuesday morning.

Orange Is The New Black Trailer

“The newest season of Orange delves into the racial and economic tensions that run rampant in the halls of Litchfield,” reads a press release from Netflix about Orange Is The New Black‘s fourth season. “Overrun with new inmates and overseen by inexperienced guards, the prison undergoes an unprecedented culture war.”

In the new trailer, it’s revealed that Litchfield has become a for-profit prison, and conditions are going south fast. Soon, the prison gets an additional 100 inmates, and responsible for keeping order inside the overflowing prison is a combination of inexperienced COs and ones with a bit less empathy and a bit more of a taste for brute force. What ensues is a battle between the inmates and those responsible for their imprisonment, as well as worsening tensions between the inmates themselves.

The trailer also confirms that Alex Vause (Laura Prepon) survives getting cornered in the greenhouse and that Sophia Burset (Laverne Cox) still has some more time in SHU ahead of her. It also seems likely that Nicky isn’t getting out of Max right away. As for Piper (Taylor Schilling), it appears as though she’s still breaking bad, making a new enemy out of Maria Ruiz (Jessica Pimentel).

The fourth season of Orange Is the New Black hits on Netflix June 17.
