[edit] Season 4 Part I
Mondo and Leroy Tidd are shown attacking Bruno Goergen, a bigoted and corrupt police officer serving time in Oz for murder. Browne is later transferred to Em City as one of the many black inmates hand selected by Adebisi and Martin Querns. In Em City, Browne and Tidd first attempt to rape Cyril O'Reily, but he fights back, and Adebisi and Cyril's older brother, Ryan, warn them not to try it again.
As Em City lets in more black inmates, life gets easier for Browne. He and the other inmates are allowed unlimited drugs, alcohol, cigarettes, and "prags" (sex slaves) as long as they keep violent incidents down. Because all the guards who are transferred in are also black, the Homeboys have complete control Em City. Browne then has sex with white inmate Tobias Beecher which angers his lover, Chris Keller.
Later, Italian inmate Don Zanghi calls Browne an ethnic slur in an argument and Browne hits him. Zanghi is thrown in solitary confinement, having angered the guards who break it up, who are black.
In Em City, Supreme Allah tells Browne and Tidd that they need to sell more drugs because Desmond Mobay is outselling them. They confront Mobay, but then guard Adrian Johnson breaks it up and sends Browne to a murder interrogation. As he is being interrogated about the death of Bruno Goergen, he suggests that Mobay may be responsible. Shortly afterwards, Browne and Supreme Allah get into a tense argument that Keller and O'Reily notice. The two of them use this to target a murder victim that cannot be traced to them. Browne is then on cafeteria duty awaiting a truck shipment when he is offered oral sex from the bisexual Keller. Keller kills Browne as a means of getting Querns fired to reintegrate the now overwhelmingly black Em City. Keller is not suspected, as Supreme Allah's stolen necklace is placed at the murder scene. Adebisi and the guards, led by Johnson, beat Allah before taking him to solitary as they are convinced that he is responsible for Browne's death. Querns is convinced of Supreme Allah's guilt, seeing that his necklace was at the scene and he and Browne almost came to blows on more than one occasion.
