Question: does someone try to kill alex in orange is the new black?
Answer: Well, the answers lie in Episode 8 (kinda), when Aydin (played by Juri Henley-Cohn) first appears. Alex's Season 3 flashbacks reveal more of her criminal past and, if you remember, Aydin was there as one of her former boss Kubra's associates — he also shot and killed her friend Fahri.
