Netflix has dropped a new teaser for "Orange Is the New Black" season 4, where it also revealed that the drama will return on June 17. The teaser does not have much for fans to take away from but it still did a good job at showing what the jailbirds of Litchfield Penitentiary are up to.

The most notable moment in the 35-second "Orange Is the New Black" teaser is the SWAT team charging at the facility, which hints that someone has been doing some troublemaking and that someone could be in trouble as well.

As intense as that scene will turn to be, the "Orange Is the New Black" season 4 teaser also shows the inmates laid back, as they marvel about how boring "white folks" could be even when they "tryna be excited," referring to an awards show they were watching.

The promo also shows Sophia still in the Security Housing Unit and Piper talking about where "talent, originality and sense of humor" could take someone. Elsewhere in the trailer, she is being threatened, "You're never coming back from this."

There is also a glimpse of Gloria being jostled by a prison guard and another warden getting every inmate's attention with an air horn. In this scene, fans will get a quick look of Alex. However, it does not look like Netflix is ready to show her fate in "Orange Is the New Black" season 4 yet.

When the third season of "Orange Is the New Black" ended, she was at the mercy of the new prison guard aka "toothpick guy." Laura Prepon, who plays the character, has hinted multiple times that fans have not seen the last of Alex so it looks like she is still alive.

Of course, it's the mystery of how she survives that fans are most excited about in "Orange Is the New Black" season 4. Viewers will have to wait for June 17 to be able to check back in on the Litchfield girls.
