What did you think Alex’s plan is, both short-term and long-term?

Short-term was to get Tanya Neale as a cellmate. Long-term was to get Kim’s mother home living with Kim.

She wants to be viewed as a sympathetic victim which is why she faked her attack. That could help get a different verdict in her upcoming new trial.

I think short term she is going to take someone’s place being released, so she can escape the place. Long term she wants Kim and to destroy her.

I think that her short term goal is to use the faked attack to bolster her court case as she does not have much faith in her barrister. Her long term aim is to destroy Kim who fascinates and challenges her.

Main aim is revenge against Kim; I believe she’ll settle for nothing less than total destruction.
What her current little play is about, I’ve not yet discerned. Poor bemused cell-mate…

Short term goal. Get out of jail quick.
Long term goal. Make Kim suffer…

>7 bluebird_: That sounds about right to me.
