Feb. 8, 2022 – “You’re not a good person, Rue,” her mother Leslie tells her while she scans her eyes for remorse during an intense standoff, while Rue stares back in search of any sign of fear or weakness — an opening to manipulate the confiscated drugs back into her orbit.
The chilling episode opens in the middle of a confrontation between the pair and youngest sibling Gia, as they learn how far down Rue has spiralled again into addiction. With her hefty supply of narcotics flushed down the toilet, she lashes out at her family, springing between aggression, negotiation, and collapsed despair. After kicking down a door, Rue learns she’s been betrayed by both her girlfriend and best friend. Jules and Elliott have not only turned her in to her to Leslie out of desperation and love, but have also now seen Rue at her darkest. “You are fucking dead to me,” she hurls at Jules, who shakes her head back with a quiver in response.
