Bea Smith's (Danielle Cormack) romantic partner at Wentworth prison — Allie Novak (Kate Jenkinson) — might be avenging her death in the upcoming season of "Wentworth." Bea's demise was the most unexpected death in the series, and no one is safe in "Wentworth" season 5.
Previously in "Wentworth" season 4, Bea was stabbed to death by Joan "The Freak" Ferguson (Pamela Rabe). Before Joan killed Bea, she went after Allie first by injecting her with enough drugs to cause her an almost fatal overdose. Thankfully, Allie was able to recover and she wakes up at around the same time Bea was being stabbed.
In season 5, Allie will find out that Bea is no longer alive, and the loss of her love might motivate her to avenge Bea's death.
A lot of fans have expressed their dismay about the shocking plot twist, and some viewers have even stated that they will boycott the show by not watching "Wentworth's" fifth season now that Bea is gone.
In an interview with After Ellen, Jenkinson teases "Wentworth" fans about what they might be missing if they don't watch season 5. She also hints that inmates will want revenge for Bea's death, especially her character.
"People are going to want revenge. Specific people [points at self]. If you want to see justice for Bea, then watch season five," shared Jenkinson. She also shares that if the top dog of "Wentworth" went down, no one else is safe from death.
Bea's death will cause a lot of changes inside Wentworth prison. Other than a new top dog coming into place, several new characters will be joining "Wentworth" season 5.
There are speculations that The Freak will be the new top dog because Bea's death was her own doing. But a lot of inmates — especially the ones who sided with Bea — will do their best to bring her down if this happens.
The new faces, both women and transgender inmates, might also be joining the fight for power and the position as top dog in "Wentworth" season 5.
The fifth season of "Wentworth" will return sometime in 2017.
