"Hey everybody, I got the fly."
Lou Kelly is an inmate at Wentworth Correctional Centre.
Kelly had been in and out of Wentworth for years ever since "she was a kid". She was mentioned in series 2 by Doreen Anderson when Kelly was "flapping her mouth off" about the fight for top dog and the drugs trade coming to a halt due to Joan Ferguson drying out the compound.
Kelly after one of her releases from Wentworth met Rebecca 'Reb' Keane at The True Path retreat where the two would get to know each other. Lou would 'save' Reb from the horrific treatment of the True Path and Lou would burn down the retreat as a result.
Kelly's return to Wentworth is marked by a botched armed robbery. Kelly and Reb attempt to raise money for Reb's surgery by threatening inmates with violence and bringing drugs into the prison. Kelly became unhinged after the death of Reb and wanted revenge to the point where she ignores Judy's pleas to stop the plot.
Kelly attempts to escape over the 'No Man's Land' fence but is stopped by Rita Connors and arrested by the police. Kelly is presumably sent to a Supermax prison after this.
