Go to the old people's house. They're coming!

- FEMALE ANNOUNCER: Previously on Ruthless...

- Please! - Please what?

- Please!

- I will fucking cut your head off!

- We will still get this money.

- How could you be thinking about that right now?

- [gunshot]

- ANDREW: And Oliver's in the tree.

He's sniping anybody that gets close to the car.

- Hello!? Hello!? - [banging on door]

- I will blow you to kingdom come.

- Don't you move.

- DEPUTY KATE: Poke, where the hell are you?

You were supposed to be here to start your shift, get in here.

- Well, I'm gonna head outta here.

- Yeah, okay.

- Let me ask you something. - Shoot.

- Does your sheriff ever go up to that compound?

- He's been there with you. - No other time?

- Not that I can recall, why?

- Hm...

- What's "Hm."?

- I just think he should.

- You gotta understand something about the sheriff,

he would think it's rude just to drop by there.

- Would he now?

- Yeah, he would.

That's just the way things are around here.

- I see.

- Is something wrong?

- No.

Well, I'm gonna get out of here.

- Well, okay.

- Uh, I'm gonna go tell him.

- Well, his door is closed, so you may want to wait

until he opens it.

- Is that another rude thing?

- Right. - I see.

- Live and learn.

- Okay, um, I'll wait a bit.

- Okay.

- Poke, where the hell are you?

The sheriff's gonna be pissed,

he opens his door and you're not here.

- He's not answering?

- No.

- Is that like him?

- You know, you have a very healthy suspicion.

- Well, thanks.

- That's a lot for a cop around here.

- I'm sorry, I'm from another place.

- I hear you, but you should relax.

- I was just asking.

- Well, if you must know, sometimes he drinks heavy

the night before, and it takes me forever to get him up.

Hell, sometimes I have to go over there and wake him up

from time to time.

- Is that so?

- Yeah, he knows how he is. Gave me a key and everything.

- I see.

- Just wait until he opens the door.

- Okay.

Close that door. - You two are a mess.

- Please.

- Yeah, we're gonna.

- We won't cause any trouble, just please...

- [phone ringing] - KATE: Sheriff's department.

- LIZ: Hello? - Hey, Liz.

- LIZ: We need to talk to the sheriff,

is he still there?

- He is.

- Well, I need to talk to him.

- Everything alright? - LIZ: Yeah.

- You got more of those Raku people up there don't you?

- Yeah.

Can I talk to him?

- Sheriff!

- Kate, I told you I was on a break.

- I know, but it's Liz, she says she has more

of those Rakadushi people at her place.

- What the hell?

Liz?

- LIZ: We got two more here.

- Say what? - LIZ: Yeah.

- What the hell is this? Visit Liz and Herbert day?

- LIZ: I know, right?

- Alright, I'll head on over.

Hey, you try and keep them there this time, alright?

- LIZ: Well, you don't take so long and we will!

- Okay.

- LIZ: The door will be unlocked,

we'll be in the living room.

- Alright, I'm on my way. - LIZ: Okay, thank you.

- Bye, Liz. - [hangs up phone]

- BRIAN: Sheriff?

- What is it?

- Are we going somewhere?

- I'm going somewhere, you're going home.

- Where are you going?

- Are you really asking me that? - Yeah.

- Go home. - Sheriff--

- I said go home.

- Yes sir.

- You shouldn't do that.

- Do what?

- Push him like that. He's like an old bear.

- Okay.

Well, I'm gonna head home.

- Okay. See you tomorrow?

- Yeah. See you tomorrow.

- ♪

- LIZ: He's on his way. - HERBERT: Don't you move.

- We won't, we promise.

- Thank you for calling the sheriff, thank you.

- What else do you think we would do?

- We didn't mean to offend you.

- Oh, you don't.

- PAULA: I don't know, I don't know,

we gotta get out of the woods first.

- Well you're not getting out of here and running

the way that other girl did.

- What other girl?

- What was her name? - She said Tally.

- Tally was here?

- Yeah.

- Did the sheriff take her?

- No.

- Why not?

- We called him and when he came to get her, she ran.

- She ran? - Yeah.

- Did she say why?

- Don't tell them, Liz.

- Please.

- She said they teach you that the sheriff is in on it.

- The sheriff? - Yes, have you heard that?

- No. - But I have.

- You have? - Yeah.

- So he's in on it?

- LIZ: No, he's not in on it, whatever that means.

- How do you know? - LIZ: He told us.

He's a good man. You are safe now.

You're safe.

- Why are we doing this? - Doing what?

- We could, we could just leave, you know? Right now.

- No, we can't leave, Joan.

- Why not?

- The guards are still out there.

- You just want the money.

- Why else do you think I let him fuck me?

- River...

- And he did. Violently.

Over and over.

So I'm not leaving here until I get what I deserve.

- I'm sorry.

I should have never agreed to do this with you.

- And what? Just die for the Roku? Raku?

Raka-fuckin-doo doo, whatever that shit is.

- Okay, you better not be so flippant.

- Listen, I'm not leaving here until I get my money.

You understand me?

- Even facing Dikahn?

- I will handle him.

- Are you sure?

- I'm sitting here, aren't I?

- I don't like this quiet. - Can you relax?

- How can you be so relaxed?

- Ruth gave me something really good from the kitchen.

- You trust her. You really trust her.

- No. - Seems that way.

- I admire her.

- [Joan laughs]

- What?

- Why?

- She's my inner female. - You are not a woman, River.

- I said, "inner female."

- Well, you don't have a female in you.

- But I did.

And if I had that ass, and that pussy--

- [Joan groans] Stop.

Why do you like saying that word?

- Because it makes you so uncomfortable.

- It doesn't make me uncomfortable,

it's vulgar.

- You know, I bet you're a lousy lay in bed.

- How would you know that?

- Well, you can't say "pussy,"

you certainly don't know how to use--

- You know, I've had enough of you.

- Okay, okay. - Alright?

You're gross. - Yeah.

- So gross. What was that movement?

- What?

- In the move-- I saw something move.

- Girl, you need to relax.

- [Joan gasps] - It's Dikahn.

- What?

Wait, is he here?

- [Joan begins laughing]

- So who's the girl now that needs to relax?

- Are you... is he here or not?

- No.

- Well shit, don't do that!

- What are you so afraid of?

You're gonna have to see him at some point or another.

- Yeah, and I will figure that out when I come to it, okay?

- Okay.

- I just need to talk to Ruth about this one first.

- Little River, with the master plan.

- Hey, never underestimate small rivers, okay?

They can be very powerful.

- ♪ Oh little round the river ♪

- Okay.

Well, believe it.

- Yup, okay, little round the river.

- What is she doing?

- JOAN: She's giving us a signal.

- She's going to the wash trailer.

- Okay. I'll go. - Okay.

- Hi. - Hi.

Do you have the books?

- Yeah. Yeah, are you okay?

- Yes. Where are they?

- Right here.

- Thank you.

- Yeah. I was really worried.

- Oh, I'm okay.

- You promise? - I promise.

So, what's going on out there?

- The Elder Mother stitched up Dikahn.

- Did she?

- Yeah. Yeah, he's going to be okay.

- Good. - Yeah.

What do you know about The Highest?

- The Highest is in with Ruth right now.

- Still? - Yes.

- What is she doing?

- I don't know, but whatever it is,

let's hope it's working.

- Yeah, yeah. I hope so.

- So, why are you doing laundry right now?

- I needed an excuse to go to the fence line.

- Why?

- Melinda went there,

I don't know if she made it back.

- Okay. I'll go check.

- Really? - Yeah.

- Okay, yeah, let me know. - I will.

I'll go put these away first, okay?

- Yeah. - And then I'll go.

- Okay, thank you. - You're welcome.

- Now you know I can't do that, either.

- You know I won't hurt you, Andrew.

- Alright then, well, walk out here

and talk to me, leave your gun behind.

- That's gonna take a whole lot of trust, brother.

- Alright, yes it does. And you know you can trust me.

- You know I have the advantage up here.

- Yup. Eye up high.

- Right.

But you know I'm not here to hurt you, brother.

- [scoffs]

Then what are you here to do?

- Who didn't make it? - The girls, Oliver.

- You're lying.

- No, I'm sorry, brother.

- How do you know they didn't make it?

- Manny just told me.

- You haven't been on a phone, Andrew.

- Yes I have, brother.

- You're lying.

- Just so you know brother, I got more help coming.

- Well, tell them to come!

- You can't hold out here for that long, Oliver.

- You just watch me.

- Come on now, talk to me. How about we make a deal?

- No, how about you shut the fuck up?

I don't trust you, and I ain't doing no more talking.

- What happened? - I don't know.

- She's dead. - I know. No shit.

- Who did it? - I don't know,

but I don't want to stand out here arguing about it, okay?

- Wait, River, River!

We can't leave her here like this.

- What do you mean?

- Oh, The Highest,

The Highest is going to be so upset.

- Listen, I do not want Dikahn to see me,

so I'm going back to the finance room.

- JOAN: River, River, we can't leave her like this.

- RIVER: No. - Where is the humanity?

Oh Melinda, I'm so sorry, so sorry, so sorry, so sorry...

- MARVA: It is so quiet. - ZANE It is.

- MARVA: Have you heard anything?

- ZANE: No.

- MARVA: Come. - ZANE: Yes.

- MARVA: Walk with me. - ZANE: Yes.

- MARVA: The Highest will be needing his dinner.

- ZANE: Of course.

- I need to get to the kitchen trailer.

- Okay. Let's go this way.

- Not that way.

Around, in front of The Highest's trailer.

- Of course.

- I want to make sure he's okay.

- You are so wise. - [Marva laughs]

- Oh, I don't know what it is.

- Elder? - Your generation,

you never listen.

- I know. We are so foolish.

- Yes, you are. - I'm sorry.

- The Highest, he does all of this for us,

then they leave, Paula.

- I know. - She drank bleach.

- She did. - She blamed The Highest.

And she leaves.

- She is a terrible person.

- Oh, The Highest didn't do that,

she did that. Yes, she's a terrible person.

But oh, when the Raku catches her...

- What a great day that will be.

- Oh, listen to you. So much pride,

I wish there was a lot of that here.

- Yes. They are selfish.

- Yes. They are.

But what were you doing? - I went to do my chores.

- [Marva gasps]

- Without anyone telling you to?

- No, I do it in honor of the Raku.

- Oh, so beautiful.

You are an elder's dream. - Thank you, Elder Mother.

- Oh, I wish there were more of the same here.

- They will learn.

- Yes, they will.

And you, you will be promoted to Elder Teacher.

- Really? - Would you like that?

- I would love that.

- You can teach all the new girls that are coming

the way of the Raku.

- New girls?

- Yes, we've been recruiting, so the new girls

should be here soon.

- That is a beautiful thing.

- Oh, praises to the Raku.

- Yes, yes, all praise to the Raku.

- Oh look. - Elder?

- It is so quiet in there.

- That's a good thing.

- I suppose. - It is.

- Well come, he will be hungry.

- Yes, Elder Mother.

- ♪

- Ruth...

- Yes, Your Highest?

- I'm still troubled.

- Why is that, Your Highest?

- Well, I haven't heard from my soldiers.

- Yes. I'm sure you will soon.

- I don't like this.

- You know what I don't like?

- What's that?

- You being upset.

- Yes, of course.

- You are so beautiful.

And such a brilliant leader.

- Yes, I am.

- You are.

- Thank you.

- No-- - No, no, thank you.

You know, I've always had so much power,

it's difficult to control.

Now I know I needed someone like you.

- How is that, Your Highest?

- You're the only one that can calm me.

- Well, you don't need to be calmed,

you just need someone to help you measure.

- Measure?

- Yes, your strength.

It's like putting something like a regulator on a car.

- What do you know about that?

- A car? - Yes.

- Well, my father was a mechanic.

And he used to tell me that they put regulators

on cars to stop them from going so fast

that they'd burn up the engine.

- Is that what you thought I was doing?

- I thought you were running in the red.

Do you know how powerful you are?

How strong you are?

- Yes.

- Do you? - Yes.

- Then you also must know

how valuable you are to us all.

And we can't lose you.

- We must all go to the Raku.

- Yes. And we all will.

But, I imagine that day being a pleasant one,

and a beautiful one.

Not being forced by the government.

- Yes. You are right.

- Yes, I am.

Because you have touched me and cleansed me,

and that's the only way I can be right.

- Yes.

- Perhaps you should speak to the sheep.

There was a lot of chaos and worry today,

and only your voice will keep them calm.

- Do you think they love me?

- I know they love you.

- And the ones that left?

- They weren't worthy of your light.

It blinds the non-believers.

- You are so right.

- So, you want to talk to the sheep?

- I need to call Andrew first.

- You need to call him? - Yes.

- How will you do that?

- There is a phone in that drawer.

- Shall I get it? - Yes.

- Yes, Your Highest. Excuse me.

- Andrew?

- Yes, Your Highest? - THE HIGHEST: Where are you?

- We found the car abandoned, up the road.

- And where are they?

- They're hiding, Your Highest.

With guns, being snipers.

They already took out one of our men.

- Are they all there?

- I sent two men to the farmhouse,

just in case they separated.

- You know they must not get away.

- ANDREW: No, they will not, sir.

- I'm counting on you, soldier.

- Yes, Your Highest, you can.

- Bring them alive if you can.

- Yes sir. - If you can't...

I won't be disappointed.

- I understand, sir.

- But if you can, I'll have a king's reward for you.

- ANDREW: Yes, Your Highest. - Carry on.

- ANDREW: Yes, Your Highest.

- Sir, is all well? - Yes.

- Good.

You see? - Yes.

- I am so happy to be in your company.

You are a beautiful man.

- You are very special, Ruth.

This could have gone a different way.

- But whatever way it went, I'm glad I'm here with you.

- Yes.

- Your Highest?

- Yes?

- Will you make love to me?

- What?

- I'm sorry, I shouldn't ask, but...

It was so amazing.

So electrifying.

- Ruth...

- I don't mean to speak out of turn,

but I have the privilege of knowing something

that you will never know.

- You know something The Highest doesn't?

- Yes.

- Now that is arrogant.

- I know what it feels like

to have you inside of me.

That you will never know.

And it is amazing.

- I will consider your request.

- Then you have made me even happier.

- Have the Elder Mother bring me dinner, I'm hungry.

- Yes.

You are The Highest.

You are The Only.

- [banging on door] - RUTH: Elder Mother!

- JOAN: She's not there.

- RUTH: Where is she?

- I saw her walking to the kitchen.

- RUTH: Okay.

- May I, may I walk with you? - Why?

- Please?

- What is it, Joan?

- The Highest, is he okay?

- Yes, he is, he's fine.

- River said you would, you would calm him down.

- I did. - How did you do that--

- What do you want, Joan?

- I just want to know that all is safe.

- It is.

- I just don't want him to ring the siren.

- He is The Highest, he can do whatever he wants to do.

- No, you stopped him for your daughter.

- Joan.

- No, I know you did.

- What is up with you?

- What is up with me? Nothing.

- You are creepy.

You are a liar.

And I don't trust you.

Uh-uh. Nah, girl.

- I just...

I'm sorry--

- Why did you give those books to Zane?

- Because I want someone to know the truth.

- About what?

- About this place, Ruth!

- Sure you did.

- I just--

- The Highest is in a very agitated state.

Would you like me to tell him that I couldn't get his dinner

because you were stopping me?

- No, of course not.

- Thank you.

- Melinda is dead, Ruth.

In a crate.

Up the hill.

By the outhouse.

[sobs]

- Ooh, Your Highest, I have your food all ready.

- Good, then give it to me.

- It's not ready yet.

- You just said it was.

- I know what I said.

I thought you were The Highest.

- It looks ready to me.

- It is not.

- How long?

- Five minutes.

- Okay. I'll wait.

- I will bring it to him.

- Are you sure you want to do that?

- Yes.

- I don't think that's a good idea.

- It is always a good idea,

because I'm the Elder Mother.

- I don't think you get it.

- I let you talk to me sideways earlier...

...but this is a pan of hot grease.

- The Highest wouldn't like that.

- No? Why not?

- Did you not know that I calmed him down?

- How did you do that?

I wonder.

- Elder Mother, we are both on the same side,

we both want to see him happy.

- We are not both on the same side!

I want to see him happy, you just want to--

- Elder Mother, stop it.

- I see what you are, you fast-tail devil.

- I am here for the Raku.

- Something has got you thinking that you can talk to me

any kind of way,

and I'm going to find out what it is.

- Yes, you will.

- What?

- He will tell you very soon.

- What do you mean by that?

- The Highest has a prophecy,

and it involves me.

- What?

- Yes. I have been chosen by the Raku for greater things.

- [laughs]

You? - Yes.

- How could he have a prophecy about you?

- I don't know, I just know that he does.

- No way. No way...

- Okay well, I'll be back in a bit for his food.

- I will bring it to him.

- He does not want to see you.

- Oh, we will see about that.

- Okay.

Well, maybe you should leave that hot grease on.

- For what?

- For him to use on you.

- Well, I will bring it to the door,

and you can take it the rest of the way.

- Thank you.

- [Marva groans]

- [door loudly opening and closing]

- Ruth... - Dikahn.

- What the fuck was that?

- What are you talking about?

- I should kill you.

- What?

- You're fucking him?

- Yes.

- Have you lost your mind?

- Dikahn...

- No, I should take that saw and cut your fucking head off.

- He wouldn't like that.

- What the fuck is going on?

Are you playing me?

- No.

- What is this?

- He came to my trailer with that sword,

and he told me that if I didn't have sex with him

he would kill me, and you.

- Why didn't you tell me that?

- I know how loyal you are to him.

- You are playing me. - No.

You saw it.

- No. No, you're playing us both.

- No. - And I will tell him.

- Well, then, I'm gonna die knowing the truth.

- Ruth, you deceitful--

- He told me that he was considering taking a wife.

- What?

- That River-- - River?

- He told him to think about it to stop the chatter

from all the members here.

You know how I feel about you.

- He's The Highest.

- Yes.

And he can have us killed.

- So you did it?

- Yes.

- Did you like it?

- Dikahn...

- Did you like it?

- He's The Highest.

- So you did?

- I had no choice.

- Do you like it better than me?

- I didn't say that.

- But you did like it?

- He is The Highest, I liked pleasing him.

- [loud bang] - Fuck!

- Are you okay?

- Out of my sight. - No.

- Get out of my sight! - I love you.

And I am doing what I have to do for us,

whether you realize that or not.

- You are a whore, and a temptress...

...who shall, and will, die.

- [footsteps on grass]

- Mack, this is Brian, I've been calling you.

The sheriff was supposed to respond to a call,

but he hasn't. He went to a bar

and just sitting there. I need your advice, sir.

Call me back.

- What if she was right?

- Paula... - No.

What if Tally knew something?

- I don't want to think about that right now.

- What do you want to think about right now?

Because you need to look at where we are.

- I wonder where Oliver is.

- Oliver?

Oliver is fine.

He has a gun.

- We have a gun.

- I know that.

- I'm not going back there.

- And neither am I, that's what I'm saying.

What if Tally was right?

- Tally was not right.

- PAULA: Lacey... How do you know?

- This is our only shot.

She can't be. - Lacey.

- Fuck. What if she was?

She must have thought something was off.

She ran. - Exactly!

- Fuck. - That's what I'm saying.

- Okay, okay, listen. We need a plan.

- PAULA: Give me the gun.

- We could be shot.

- If we go back there-- - I am not going back there.

- And I don't plan on it either, so give me the gun

so we can take them.

- No. - Lacey, give me the gun.

- No Paula, no.

- Give me the-- excuse me?

- What is it? - LACEY: Paula!

- I have to go to the bathroom.

- Well, you hold it until the sheriff gets here,

he'll be here in a minute.

- I'm sorry, I don't think I can. Please.

- Well, you're just gonna have to hold it.

- Herbert.

- HERBERT: No, Liz.

- LIZ: Hell honey, I'm gonna give her a bucket.
