| Wentworth | comment |
Wentworth (known internationally as Wentworth Prison) is a television drama series which started in 2013.The show is considered to be a Darker and Edgier Continuity Reboot (not quite a Remake) of the 1980s Australian cult-classic Prisoner: Cell Block H, sharing and twisting many of the latter's characters and storylines. It follows Bea Smith, a new prisoner at Wentworth prison, as she navigates her way through being hazed by the dominant clique in Cell Block H and deals with her crumbling family life. As the show progresses of course, the focus also shifts to other characters in the prison. | |

No-Holds-Barred Beatdown: Bea's punishment after interfering with Jacs's plans in Something Dies. Rather fittingly, Jacs herself will later be bashed in the same episode. Maxine and Bea team up to do this to Lucy after the latter constantly undermines their authority. And of course, Bea bashing Franky at the end of their much-anticipated fight. | |

Bitch in Sheep's Clothing | |
| Wentworth / int_2764d432 | comment |
Bitch in Sheep's Clothing: In season five, it's revealed that Don, who had been coaching Liz's testimony, was playing Liz the entire time, exploiting her affection by pushing her towards a false testimony. Liz takes the stand only for her testimony to collapse under the weight of evidence not yet revealed to her — all a plot by Don, who was having an affair with Sonia before the murder, to get Sonia exonerated. In the same season you have Iman, who pretended to be a defenseless victim and friend to Franky, until The Reveal that she was the girlfriend of the man whose face Franky burned, who also turned into a stalker determined to burn Franky's face as well. Jealous of his obsession, she murdered him, framed Franky, and then got herself into prison in order to murder her as well. | |

Bald of Evil | |
| Wentworth / int_28114487 | comment |
Bald of Evil: Something of a recurrent theme with the show's male characters. Nils Jesper, Derek Channing, Gregory Turkel, Don Kaplan, Detective "Jonesy", all of them have to little to no hair and equal few scruples. Toss in Vinnie Holt for good measure if you like, as he's certainly balding though he doesn't feature on the show much and is never actually depicted doing anything illegal. The Attorney General is also losing his hair. The only male baddies with a full coif are Jake, who finds redemption later in the series, and Brody and his henchmen, who end up dead or captured not long after their badness is revealed. Minor antagonist prisoner Spike Baxter is a skinhead as well. Subverted by Gavin in season 8; he's a bit sleazy and isn't entirely honest with Boomer about said sleaze when they first meet, but all in all he seems to have a good heart. | |

Deliberate Injury Gambit: Ferguson getting sodomized with a broom handle by Lucy's gang seems to have genuinely affected her, until we see that she's deliberately playing it up to make Kaz want to protect and avenge her. This is compared within the episode to a flashback of Joan letting her psychologist rape her so that she can blackmail him into giving her a clean bill of mental health. | |

Properly Paranoid: Zigzagged in season 8 regarding Ferguson's amnesia. In 8A, Will, Vera, and Jake are all convinced it's a ruse and she'll eventually turn them in for their attempt to kill her, but at this point it's actually real. In 8B, she is faking it, but only Vera remains vigilant — by this point, Will and Jake are convinced it's genuine. | |

Conflict Ball: Bea spends a lot of season four getting angry and annoyed with Doreen for little reason. It could be excused due to the pressure of her position, but she doesn't have the same problem with characters who are actually being obnoxious. This culminates in Doreen rejecting Bea to start hanging with Kaz's gang, including Ferguson, who she had been afraid of mere episodes before. | |

Early-Installment Weirdness | |
| Wentworth / int_4f4372e9 | comment |
Early-Installment Weirdness: Season one's title theme had no lyrics. From season two on, a new theme based on the first one, with sung lyrics is used (season two uses a slightly different snippet of it than other seasons). The very earliest episodes make frequent use of flashbacks to tell characters' backstories/criminal histories. This goes away after a few episodes; even when new major characters are introduced down the road, they either get no flashbacks or substantially fewer. Linda actually does smile in a few season one episodes! There's a very subtle one in the pilot regarding Jacs' return from the slot. It's implied that she had been locked up for an unspecified infraction for a very long time (weeks at least and likely months) and it's said outright that she wasn't supposed to come back for weeks more. Come season 6, and the apparent murder of Sonia by Kaz gets the perpetrator only a *total* of 2 weeks in the slot. | |

Enemy Mine | |
| Wentworth / int_5989e3b6 | comment |
Enemy Mine: Bea and Franky teaming up to take down Joan in season 3. The final season lives and breathes by this trope; it's littered with alliances between people who don't like each other - Rita/Marie, Lou/Judy, briefly Lou/Allie, Marie and the core gang, Miller/Ferguson in a sense. | |

Break-Up/Make-Up Scenario | |
| Wentworth / int_5be919ae | comment |
Break-Up/Make-Up Scenario: On a platonic level, Doreen leaves the group midway through season four in protest over Bea's treatment of Tasha and joins Kaz's group. She comes back, though, after an anxious remark to Kaz nearly gets Nash bashed by Kaz's mooks. In a straightforward romantic vein, Bea breaks her affair with Allie off after she guesses — and Kaz falsely asserts — that Allie was bait in Ferguson's plot to murder her. Allie doesn't take this well, and Bea takes her back to protect her and help her detox. | |

Theseus' Ship Paradox | |
| Wentworth / int_63267b15 | comment |
Theseus' Ship Paradox: The cast got pretty close. The only main cast members who spanned from the beginning of the show to the end are Kate Atkinson (Vera) and Robbie Magasiva (Will).note Boomer and Linda spanned the whole show as well, but Katrina Milosevic wasn't credited with the main cast until season 2, and Jacquie Brennan has was always credited with the recurring cast; Milosevic and Brennan were still feted alongside Magasiva and Atkinson for being part of the "100 Club" when the show wrapped. Even as late on as season 4, the only additional holdovers are Kate Jenkinson (Allie) and Bernard Curry (Jake). Justified as people obviously do come and go from a prison. | |

Driven to Suicide | |
| Wentworth / int_6d332aea | comment |
Driven to Suicide: Almost the case for Bea, after the death of her daughter. Cruelly referenced several episodes later during a near-murder scene: "You should've done it right the first time." Played straight at first, but ultimately averted, with Jianna. She apparently commits suicide after a social worker takes her baby away, leading paramour Ferguson to take revenge on the worker who did it, who turns out to be Will Jackson. It's not until season three that it's revealed that the other prisoners lynched her for being a "screw lover" and to get back at the tyrannical Ferguson. | |

Grey-and-Gray Morality | |

Grey-and-Gray Morality: The series is big on this trope in general: Erica Davidson, torn between being a good governor who helps the women.. and covering up her bad deeds and fantasizing about sex with an inmate. Franky saving Sophie from the predatory inmates, only to completely negate it by getting Sophie drunk and vulnerable in her cell. This seems to be in play when Frankie and Bea deprive Jodie of sleep and food ... to make her crack and tell them about Joan torturing her. | |

Pronoun Trouble | |
| Wentworth / int_7b7f90d5 | comment |
Pronoun Trouble: A textbook example in season 1's "Mind Games." During their visit, when Jacs asks Vinnie to smuggle in illicit pain medication, she tells him, "I've got a screw we can use, give it to them, they'll bring it in." Nothing particularly noticeable in her wording, especially as we have every reason at this point to think the screw in question is Will (Jacs having previously mentioned knowing of his own illicit drug use). It turned out to actually be Vera, and Jacs' leverage over her was something not previously known. If she had used the female pronoun when talking to Vinnie, it would have ruined a pretty good Wham Shot when Vera was revealed handing over the meds. | |

Foreshadowing | |
| Wentworth / int_9d12bbc1 | comment |
Foreshadowing: Subverted. Most of the third season seems to be warning us about Franky's death with lines such as "I'm never getting out of here alive" and "I'll be leaving this place in a coffin" when actually her line "I wanna leave this place as a pile of ashes and smoke (the great fire) in a hot car with a hot girl (Bridget)." is what really happens. And while it's likely this played out as such to suit that scene's dialog retroactively rather than truly being foreshadowing at the time, when Franky returns to Wentworth in season 5 she....leaves the prison in a coffin. (She just happens to still be alive inside it) | |

A much sadder example: briefly with Debbie when she realises Brayden has injected her with too much heroin. Franky when Bea challenges her for the position of Top Dog, and again when she realizes that stabbing her in the torso isn't doing anything thanks to her Improvised Armour. Liz when she receives a gun... whilst on parole. Joan when Bea escapes both prison and hospital. Also when Bea outsmarts her during the second riot. | |

The Missus and the Ex | |
| Wentworth / int_add9abb3 | comment |
The Missus and the Ex: Doreen finds out in season four that Nash, with Joshua, is living with his ex and their daughter, as he can't find a job and thus can't afford his own place to live. The ex is nice enough, but Doreen is anxious about the situation, worried that Joshua will forget about his biological mother and look at this temporary family as his "real" one. | |

Fan Disservice: In season 2's "The Danger Within," Bea suspects that one of three new arrivals at Wentworth has been sent by the Holt family to kill her. The climactic fight features two fit, slender, half-naked women grappling each other in the still-damp shower, but is just brutal to watch, particularly when the assailant lands a couple of cuts with a shiv. | |

Shout-Out: Lots for Prisoner, including: Using the laundry steam-press to burn hands as punishment Prison riots resulting in the death of an officer Nicknames such as Queen Bea, The Freak and Vinegar Tits. Kaiya's teddy bear. The dryer scene in Sins of the Mother. The leather gloves! Bea being hospitaled for knife wounds, only to escape. There's a subtle one when Rita is introduced in season 6. She sarcastically asks another inmate "Do ya like black chicks?" which is very likely a reference to actress Leah Purcell's multimedia project Black Chicks Talking, aimed at increasing indigenous female voices in Australian media. The Season 7 finale has a big one to One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest, including the score. | |

Artistic License – Prison | |

Artistic License – Prison: No Australian prison inmate would ever want to be called "Top Dog." In that vernacular, "dog" has a similar meaning that "rat" might have in prisons elsewhere — i.e. snitch. Curiously, the show actually does seem to know this; when Liz (and later Bea) are both found out to be laggers, how do the women express their disgust? By growling and barking at them. | |

Big Damn Heroes: Maxine saving Bea during the shower assassination attempt. Boomer leading the group effort to save Franky from Jacs's attempt to gang rape her. Subverted in "Plan Bea." Kaz and company save Bea from Ferguson's murder attempt, but it's only because Will revealed to Kaz that Ferguson was the one who got the Red Right Hand imprisoned. She knew about the murder attempt and was (relatively) fine with it. Rita, most of the time, but especially in the two-part "Under Siege" story arc at the end of Season 7. Never threaten her sister, Ruby! Most surprising of all is Ferguson after her Heel–Face Turn, rescuing Vera in the series finale. | |

Earn Your Happy Ending | |
| Wentworth / int_f64a9cf7 | comment |
Earn Your Happy Ending: Anyone who gets one frankly qualifies (Doreen went through a lot before hers), but the big winner has to be Franky. She survives a fire that nearly kills her, being framed for murder TWICE, a harrowing prison escape, being shot while on the lam and nearly dying from that, all the while managing to prove her innocence. To say nothing of how she confronts her demons over the crime that landed her in prison in the first place. She arguably changed and grew more than anyone on the show, such that when she was written off from regular status, it frankly feels right, and that her story is complete. Bleak as the scenario is, Rita and Ruby get theirs in the series finale. Boomer got hers some episodes prior, and even Allie is shown to have regained the will to live and come to terms with her permanent disability in the events of the finale as well. | |

Evil Cannot Comprehend Good: Ferguson organizes for Lucy to rape Tasha and waits gleefully for the inevitable fallout when Kaz comes to defend Tasha from pressing the panic button. Maxine instead chooses to let her off with a warning, which earns the respect of the other prisoners, including Kaz, while Ferguson is shocking that nothing came to blows. (Bea later chastises Maxine for not properly punishing Tasha and ends up doing it anyway, though the fact that she loses some of her greatest supporters because of it demonstrates she made the unpopular choice) Ferguson also discreetly revealed to Will that it was Franky who killed Meg, not Jacs, so that Will could kill Franky before she could get parole. In the end he chooses to let her go, shocking Ferguson. | |

Beauty Is Never Tarnished | |
| Wentworth / int_fe614133 | comment |
Beauty Is Never Tarnished: Both Bea and Franky rock their respective scars. In general this is averted; most of the prisoners, with the exception of a few (Franky, Doreen, and Allie) look like real women hardened by the prison, and fight scenes are generally bloody and leave the combatants bruised. Boomer's actress Katrina Milosevic, a self-described "girlie girl," has mentioned how difficult it sometimes is for her to do things like not brush her hair for a few days, in order to truly look like a woman who is in prison. | |
