Poet asks to be let into Said's pod. Once inside, Poet explains that he knows that Said worked to get him published, and Poet fucked it up, but he hasn't been writing in order to punish himself for his misdeed. Now, Poet wants to start writing again. Said gives him permission to do so, since he was asking. Poet is overjoyed, and says that he will dedicate his first poem to Said, for inspiring them all. Said tells Poet to write for himself, because Said is no better than Poet.
Said comes to see Tricia Ross in the visitors' room. He walks in slowly, pauses, and then closes the door behind him. Poet is at another table, talking to his mother or something. Said tells Tricia not to talk, and holds out his hand. Poet sees this. Patricia looks at Said warily, and then takes his hand. Poet watches.
Keller talks to Sister Pete in her office. He asks her if she is a nun or a shrink first, and she says shrink. He asks why she likes to get inside people's heads. Sister Pete says that she does it because sometimes she can make a small difference. Keller asks if it frustrates or hurts her to take such small steps. Sister Pete says she was trained not to let it hurt. Keller says that it's a tough lesson to learn, and then says that it's not her fault that her patients don't get better, but sometimes she has to wonder if she's just not good enough. Sister Pete looks at him like, "Damn, boy! How did you get inside my head?" A bell rings, and Keller hops up to see one of his ex-wives during visiting hours.
Sister Pete walks out of her office and sees Kenny and Pierce pointing into the visiting room and chuckling. She looks and sees Keller nuzzling with a babe. Keller notices Sister Pete and waves. Sister Pete waves back and smiles. Keller goes back to nuzzling his babe.
Sister Pete looks at some certificate on the wall. I guess it's either her psychology degree or her nun's orders, or something. Ray walks in and says he heard that Leo is allowing Alvarez to participate in the victim-offender interaction program. Sister Pete is on her way to tell Alvarez, and Ray wants to come along. Sister Pete informs him that he can't be involved in the program, because it needs to be between her, Alvarez, and Rivera. Ray looks downtrodden.
