Biography[]

Annalisa is in prison for murder. In season 7 during restorative justice class, she admits to drowning a man in maple syrup, saying "some people deserve to die."

Season Six[]

Annalisa is seen with Daddy when the riot girls enter D-Block and steal Cindy Hayes' toiletries. Annalisa smirks at them ("Shitstorm Coming").

When Daddy gives Daya a snickers as an appreciation for killing Humps and subsequently getting systematically beaten by the guards, Annalisa intimidates Daya saying that Daddy is hers (although no evidence is seen of this). She refers to Daddy with a male pronoun and Daya retorts that he isn't actually a he and therefore she's not interested. This pleases Annalisa and she walks away.

When the oxycontin pipeline is inadvertently upset by D-Block, several girls, including Annalisa, start going through withdrawal and put pressure on Daddy to establish a new pipeline.

When Barbara is having a seizure due to the bath salts from Daddy, Annalisa notices and searches her body for drugs. ("Break the String")

She is seen sitting with Nicky, Lorna and Barb when Barb shows her a magic trick. Barb allows them to get anything from commissary. She swaps in Nicky to do maintenance for C-Block. Later, her and Daddy roll their eyes when Nicky is allowed to hear their plan to ambush Carol ("Chocolate Chip Nookie")

During the shooting of the corporate video for PolyCon Corrections (MCC's new brand), she's given a line (smiling and correctly answering the question, "What's the square root of 4,096?"), but she appears frustrated by Suzanne constantly going off script and causing new takes. During one of the pauses, she approaches a disillusioned Maria (who is sitting next to her) and recruits her on Barb's side in the war against C-Block ("Double Trouble ").

Before the kickball match, Annalisa goes to retrieve her stashed weapon for the kickball match in the laundry room, and she hears a noise coming from the closet where Nicky and Lorna are hiding. To keep Lorna safe, Nicky reveals herself; she is threatened by a suspicious Annalisa, but claims she was also collecting her shiv, and produces one she took from Lorna earlier. Annalisa and Nicky head into the match. At the kickball match, Annalisa is worried about what Barb will do when Maria makes the teams different. Annalisa and the rest of D-Block prepare to engage violently with the C-Block team, until Nicole catches the ball and everyone on the field gets caught up in the actual game and forgets about their fight, including D-Block's chief enforcer Daddy. Annalisa, as Daddy's second-in-command, is actually the last one to abandon the plan, getting mad at Daddy for also abandoning it, but then she's seen smiling and cheering with all the others ("Be Free").

Season Seven[]

Annalisa takes Tali Grapes, an inmate spending her first day in Max asking around for drugs, away from Adeola as she states that she has drugs for her, then bringing her over to a separate place outside. She stands off to the side as Tali, again, says she wants drugs when Taystee comes out of the building. She is then, later on, caught by a furious Dayanara Diaz while having sex with Daddy. After being caught, she rushes to the exit before smirking at Daya and biting her lip as she leaves the bathroom. After said encounter, she sits on the floor in Daddy's space in the library, spectating Alex Vause and Daya as they speak to her. During the scene of Daddy's announced death when CO Ward tells the rest of the inmates to go back to their bunks, Annalisa turns around and stares at Daya before walking off. When Vause goes back up to Daddy's section of the library, Annalisa informs her that Daddy's dead. As Alex walks away, she is seen being comforted by Tina Swope.

("Beginning of the End")

She sets up and makes a small speech at the memorial of Daddy in the middle of D-Block, allowing Swope to share her poem as she walks off from the front, When asked where Daya is, she responds with "Would you show up to a memorial service for someone you poisoned?" showing that she knows that Daya made a move on Daddy and killed her just by her face when she found out. She then states they're going to have to make a move too. Annalisa becomes a background character for the rest of the episode, her next appearance being in the background with her group when Ginger and Alvarez are conversing, then when somebody pushes inmate Hutton off the rails on the second story of D-Block, she and her group staring up at Daya after exclaiming in shock with the rest of the block once it happened. ("Just Desserts")

When approached by (now warden) Ward at a table with Maria Ruiz, she is seen playing around with a paper fortune teller she made out of the pamphlets distributed to the inmates, It's what she seems hyper focused on until Maria asks her question about the incentives, saying she thinks they should get conjugals, then going back to her fortune teller. Later in the episode at Joseph Caputo's restorative justice class, she sits in a circle of chairs along with the other students and Caputo. She pays attention to him more than she speaks, twirling her finger around a piece of her hair before she makes a few snarky remarks, one to Caputo and one about Beth. In the next class cut, Annalisa stares at Ruiz as she talks about her experience and how she feels, she stays focused and quiet the whole time, only looking around when Caputo starts talking and Cindy Hayes walks into the room. ("How to Do Life")

In the next restorative justice class when Caputo starts his sentence about the week's assignment, Annalisa turns to Rosalie Deitland and tells her to, quote, "back the fuck off" of Eckhart Tolle because SHE was gonna write to him, but Deitland said she was going to before her. This makes Caputo settle them, clarifying the actual assignment of the week. As Caputo starts a visualisation exercise for the group, she comments on how rude it is that visualised person in an elevator with them is staring down at their phone; she gets chastised by Juanita Vazquez for interrupting him. Next class scene, it starts off with Annalisa practically sobbing as she reads out her letter, apologising not to the man she killed, but rather to the maples of Vermont for wasting its "sticky sweetness" and "life blood" to drown a man. But she also states she is thankful, because "some people deserve to die." She earns a lot of looks from the group for this, and Caputo even comments on how her letter should probably not have been to the maples, but it was heartfelt. She responds by saying she "eats pancakes as dry as penance." She gets called out again by Maria later on, just about judging her for apologising to trees, to which Caputo replies with "At least it was an apology." ("Trapped in an Elevator")

Annalisa plays the role of Kimberly in Vazquez's case, reading out her witness statement. Her role is eventually taken by Caputo, who tells her to give up her seat so he can play Juanita's victim instead. Later, Annalisa goes up to chat with and obtain drugs from Swope, then goes to sit down with Aleida. Annalisa speaks to her, informing her that Daya has a new drug pipeline; she comments on how Aleida mentioned earlier that she doesn't like rodents, adding how moles can be useful. She asks if Daya is looking at them, when notified that she is, she finds it's good to her that Daya is watching her enemies join forces. Aleida ends up quite forcefully pushing her a bit to the side to grab a scoop of the rice on her tray to eat it. ("The Thirteenth")

When Daya is walking up to Aleida's drug spot in the library, Annalisa steps to the side to block her way as it's for customers only. Daya responds with a threat, causing her to move away to let her through. She spectates as Aleida speaks to Daya, but walks away after Daya says her first sentence to her. ("God Bless America")

Lorna Morello Muccio is spouting love for her (actually deceased) child, Sterling, whom she still believes is fully alive and well, causing Annalisa to ask her to shut up, as she's tired of her. When Lorna doesn't listen to her, she repeats her words, causing Nicky Nichols to butt in and tell her to not get mad at Lorna and to just eat her pot-pie compote. Annalisa corrects her, telling her it is not pie because it doesn't have a crust, and also that she's annoyed by her talking about her baby. When Lorna cuts off her sentence to talk about her baby again, Annalisa tells her to listen closely because what she has to say is important; "Fuck your baby" starts to infuriate the other. When Annalisa repeats her words and puts them into more depth, Lorna snaps. Annalisa is tackled to the floor by her, sitting down for a few seconds before having to be restrained and pulled away by a guard because she tried to jump back at her. ("The Big House")

Daya gets up to go get water, and Annalisa alerts Aleida that if she wants to talk to her alone, now's her chance. When Aleida gets up from her seat, she offers her cup and asks her if she can get her a cup of water while she's up there, to which Aleida smacks her cup with the back of her hand and rejects the favor asked. ("Here's Where We Get Off")
