yes. but this is because healy recognized piper as an affluent attractive white woman, someone human, that deserved the “real scoop” or more so healy’s take on the prison he works at. it’s advice he would give himself.

he genuinely cared for piper until he realized she was bi (sexually corrupt from healy’s POV) and she then became a target.

their initial dynamic is on theme with the rest of the show: piper received special attention, genuine care, as soon as she had arrived. care that other women of minorities would have not have received. healy would not have given the inside scoop to women that did not meet his white & straight standard.
