## Throughout the Series

### Season 1

In Orion, at the prison, the guards are having a congenial break when they notice a fellow guard sitting separately and eating Vienna sausages from the vending machine. The group tease the guard until he leaves, suggesting that the guards are not only fighting against the inmates but also amongst themselves. The same guards then discuss what they served a particular inmate, P-Dog, for dinner, which was actually human feces.

In Along Came a Spider, at the negotiation, P-Dog refuses to sit at the table while cuffed and leads the discussion. The Warden claims that the guards took standard actions in response to the incident in the yard. P-Dog insists that the heavy lockdown is disproportional and only because the guards want overtime pay. He claims that he and the other inmates at the table know what their business is and what'll happen if they make deals with each other, but making deals with the guards is dangerous. When the Warden asks what deal was made, P-Dog tells him that the inmates took out their child-murdering trash, officially putting the Warden on the scent of the previous crime. In response to the guards' actions and P-Dog's arguments, the Warden lifts the lockdown.

In The Devil is Us, at the men's prison, a group of inmates pass a knife between them as they take their trays back after a meal. A couple of inmates jostle the guard who's keeping watch on the floor and then P-dog stabs him before passing the knife on again. Everyone involved washes their hands in dishwater before abandoning the knife. When the guard falls down, the prison goes into lockdown as other guards rush to his aid.

In The Lie of the Truth, the guards go to collect the prisoners they suspect of murdering their colleague, beginning with P-Dog. The process of shackling the man is extensive, beginning with hands and feet but ending with a gag and netted hood. Meanwhile Kyle McLusky and Ian Ferguson arrive at the prison to oversee the transfer of Milo Sunter, handing over an abundance of weapons they brought with them, including brass knuckles. When Kyle and Ian arrive to pick up Milo, they are stopped in the same room as the shackled P-Dog and a number of custodial workers who appear to be friends of the inmate. Before the cops have a chance to grab their target and get out of there, the inmates go on the offensive. They beat the cops and guards, tasing them and using pepper spray, while Milo looks on. As P-Dog goes to leave, Milo helps him identify which key to use but suggests they open the weapons locker to arm their escape and of course Milo will help with that if they uncuff him. As P-Dog asks the one guard they haven't killed to open up everything in the prison, Milo sneaks off into an unnoticed stairwell. Meanwhile the rushing hordes of freed inmates make easy work of the riot-geared guards.

In This Piece of My Soul, Mike McLusky prepares to take his meeting with the inmate population and his entrance is televised, letting Mariam McLusky know exactly what danger he's put himself in. The inmates direct him past burning mattresses and hanging guards to the riot's leader who is P-Dog. The National Guard tries to keep watch from the walls but lose visual on Mike as he disappears into the crowd. The final remaining armed guard then makes an appearance and the national guard beats him up to relieve him of duty. P-Dog reveals that the animosity brewing among the inmates that lead to the riot all started with their mistreatment after they killed the child molester for the guards. When Mike asks what will happen with the guards, P-Dog tells him that the guards are the worst criminals in here before executing one of the them. The National Guard on the walls then open fire on the inmates, killing P-Dog and forcing Mike to take cover.
