Orange Is the New Black<\/em> pretty much wrapped up the stories of every inmate. Piper (Taylor Schilling<\/a><\/strong>) moved to Ohio after Alex’s (Laura Prepon<\/a><\/strong>) transfer to that prison and went back to school, Taystee (Danielle Brooks<\/strong>) helped establish the Poussey Washington Fund while working to help inmates prepare for their economic lives on the outside, and Daya (Dascha Polanco<\/strong>) was\u2026killed by her mom, Aleida (Elizabeth Rodriguez<\/strong>)? Maybe?<\/p>\n

Daya’s fate remained unclear, even to Polanco. But, she has a luxury that viewers at home don’t: Access to the show’s writers.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“They made it very clear to me that I don’t die. I thought that she did. But the writers told me, \u2018She doesn’t die, but she gets knocked out really well,'” Polanco told The Hollywood Reporter<\/a>. “And I realized it was going to be left as that question. I acted that out really well, huh? [Laughs.]”<\/p>\n

So, Daya ended up alive, not necessarily well, but alive in prison, addicted to and dealing drugs (with the help of her sister), living alongside her mother.<\/p>\n<\/section>\n<\/div>\n

“Oh, Daya. I’m going to miss her. I wanted her to have a moment of closure with Bennett. I wanted her to inquire about her daughter. I wanted more of Pornstache. Though we do see him [at the end] with Daya’s baby, I wanted to see Daya actually inquire about her daughter,” she said. “I would have loved to see that interaction. Her curiosity as a mother, her artistry \u2014 that all became obsolete. That’s what happens when you have no hope.”<\/p>\n
