And hes always been a dangerous proposition for Navarro.
Warning: Her vocabulary primarily consists of expletives.
Boss Fight picks up right where the last episode ended, with the kidnapping of Marty Byrde.
The immediate aftermath means that Ben Davis has to be brought in on everything going on with the family.
And then theres a whole lot of panicked waiting.
Ruth cries; Helen makes some calls; Wendy tries to reach Navarro.
And Marty is in a cell.
(Is he all the way in Mexico?
Hes being tortured with hot, bright lights and loud music.
And occasionally questioned by Navarro as to what he wants.
Its a good question.
Marty always says he wants stability, but what does that mean to Navarro and his operation?
Everyone in the Ozarks has to cover for Marty as he goes through life-changing trauma south of the border.
How can she ensure Martys seen as necessary by Navarro and Helen?
And maybe even Wendy?
And this could be a binary situation.
Succeed and Marty is redundant; fail and Helen/Wendy are.
After all, Navarro really only needs one side of this turf war.
Navarro tells Marty, She wants it all.
So what do you want?
Again, its a good question that Marty may not have asked himself.
He gets emotional, saying he wants to see his wife and kids.
That response only earns him a beating and being called a liar.
Marty wants more than that, and Navarro needs honesty or he will likely kill Marty.
Meanwhile, Ruth gets the operation going back at the Belle.
Maya notices the spike in money being laundered and decides to walk the floor.
Ben is going to be an interesting player this season.
At first,it felt like he might be a dangerous wild card.
Lets just hope he makes it out alive.
Back in Mexico, Marty gets intense and tells Navarro that he hopes they chop his head off.
Thats a start, his captor says.
And then Agent Miller drops something interesting in Wendy Byrdes lap.
She is giving Wendy an out.
She could report the kidnapping and the U.S. government would come down on Navarro and his cartel.
She doesnt take it.
She doesnt even appear to think about it.
He reveals two things.
Two, hes going to compromise an FBI agent.
Hes going to find a way to turn Agent Miller.
And after he does that, everyone is safe.
Dirty Laundry
How is Marty planning to compromise Maya Miller?
Were getting an interesting parallel between Charlotte Byrde and Erin Pierce.
The former knows a lot, but its clear that this isnt an option for Erin.
Helen tells Charlotte, There will be consequences for anyone who speaks truth to my daughter.
That sounds like foreshadowing to me.
The new players this year have been excellent without stealing too much focus with stunt casting or familiar faces.
Will they work together to turn Miller?
To get Zeke back?
One thing to consider there: Bens involvement.
