Episode Summary & Review

Summary

Ruth makes a play for the casino with some help from a familiar face. Wendy cozies up to Omar’s sister and arranges a meeting with Clare.

Our Take

Ruth’s power move finally feels earned after weeks of grief and grinding, and her scenes crackle in a way the Byrde material just doesn’t this hour. Wendy’s scheming with Camila is solid but familiar, and the Clare subplot drags a bit. Still, the momentum is real and the tension keeps ratcheting up. A strong penultimate episode that sets the table without stalling.
