The second half of Ozark‘s remaining season has some fairly essential duties on its shoulders. It wishes to now not finest bring the story of our essential characters—the Byrde family and Ruth Langmore—to a terminate, but additionally be sure that the story of the complete stamp feels total. Which device calling help things from the foundation, and, in some cases, bringing help of us from the very foundation.

So when Ruth wishes motivate to raze a play at taking on the Byrdes’s riverboat casino in Season 4, Episode 11 “Pound of Flesh and Restful Kickin’,” she tracks any individual she knows who happens to be any individual all of us know too—we correct would possibly perchance perchance have forgotten about her. This person she goes to keep in touch over with, now working in sunny Miami, is Rachel Garrison. Rachel was a key persona within the first two seasons of Ozark, but hasn’t been seen or mentioned within the years since. Restful, in making an strive for her out and bringing her help, Ruth makes her a key player in how things finally give up up taking half in out at the give up of the sequence.

The arrangement now you can now not be awake this lady Ruth went to keep in touch over with—named, again, Rachel— is as a result of she hasn’t been seen on Ozark since the give up of Season 2. Attributable to diversified delays (both Covid-associated and now not), that was the complete vogue help in 2018, virtually four years ago. So within the occasion you don’t fully be awake a persona who hasn’t been seen in virtually four beefy trips across the sun, on a stamp designed to be binged in transient expose (it’s some distance a Netflix fashioned, in spite of every thing), we’re now not going to fault you too grand. We’re additionally going to motivate refresh your memory.

So, uh, who precisely is Rachel on Ozark again?

Season 1

Motivate at the very foundation of Ozark—when Marty, Wendy, and the family first arrived and had been residing within the apartment with terminally in wretched health historical man Buddy (wager you forgot about him too!)—Rachel was a key figure in Marty constructing store within the Ozarks.

When Marty first obtained to town, he went round taking a gaze for agencies to “make investments in,” if truth be told taking a gaze for agencies to repair up and make investments cartel money in as fragment of the laundering device he was both extremely just correct at and doing to preserve his family and himself alive. In the stop, he came upon the Blue Cat Hotel, a flee down motel and bar that was owned by Rachel. After some convincing, Marty elated Rachel to allow him to make investments within the Blue Cat Hotel, and he made some adjustments to well-organized industry up (along side hiring Ruth as a dishwasher). He at final obtained the industry booming…but then Rachel came upon out that Marty was cooking the books, tactfully lying about the money going in and popping out—again, all as fragment of the money laundering that he was so ultimate at.

Rachel took Marty to process on this, but he had no option but to continue—stopping would indicate his and his family’s death by the hands of the cartel. Rachel at final uncovered $100,000 that Marty had stashed away off-negate, and originally left it—but at the give up of the season, took it and ran after a threatening cartel member came taking a gaze for Marty. That was an even signal to gain the hell out of there, and she took it.

Season 2

Rachel returned to Ozark in Season 2, and with a just correct darker and more upsetting storyline. Rachel had the $100,000 in money that she had taken, but had fallen into a spiral of alcohol abuse. Early within the season she was caught drunk riding, and FBI Agent Petty (an even ugly asshole) blackmailed her; return to the Ozarks to hear in on Marty, or jog to reformatory for existence.

Rachel returned to town, but correct at the a associated time as Marty’s agencies had been being squeezed and investigated by the FBI. Wendy was suspicious when Rachel returned at this proper moment, and she had every factual to be—as Petty had Rachel wearing a wire when she was interacting with Marty.

All the most realistic doubtless device through this, Marty and Rachel had been getting nearer and nearer, and while the feelings between them had been true, Petty was additionally encouraging her to gain terminate to him (while wearing a wire) to gain him to voice one thing incriminating on tape. Petty additionally obtained Rachel hooked on Oxycontin, and there was an complete mess right here, the establish she injure up getting heroin that originated from the Snell farm that Darlene had laced with Fentanyl, and Rachel injure up overdosing. If truth be told, it was an complete mess.

Anyway, Rachel at final urged Marty that she was wearing a wire, and Marty at final maneuvered Rachel out of Petty’s clutches (and Petty later obtained murdered by Ruth’s fragment of shit father, Cade). The two obviously had emotions for one but every other, but it wasn’t real or wholesome to give up what they had been doing. Marty had Rachel flown the complete vogue down to Miami, the establish he would pay for rehab treatment and verify the money from the Blue Cat was in her memoir. At that time, they doubtless conception they’d never check each and each assorted again.

But that Ruth Langmore tends to gain pleasure from throwing wrenches into things like that.
