I've seen that one!

Quite good, though it's almost comical how she just takes it in stride, without seeming that upset.

I think it's similar to your CPA stories, the woman reach a point where they have no choice but to accept what is going to happen. Either because it's now the law (CPA), or in this case, the rules and policy of the prison. I think we can assume that this female attorney has visited this prison before during the course of her duties. She was probably aware that she would strip-searched and that the search may well be executed by a male security officer. Were this a video and not a GIF, you would have heard her express her indignation and say "I'll have your job for this". I took that to mean that she anticipated being stripped, even by a male, but expected only a visual cavity search (which was the case in 'South of the Border 3') and not a full on body cavity search.
