And he's marrying her.

- RUTH: Previously on "Ruthless."

- Tell him you have an Oxy problem

and they keep it in the safe.

- You're fucking brilliant.

- The deputy, he's an FBI agent. - Where is he?

- We know somebody else is here. Undercover.

- I don't know what you mean.

- This FBI thing.

An agent in our midst.

Go in there and kill the agent we know is one.

- Did you hear what I said?

- Sir.

- Let me repeat myself.

Go inside.

Kill him.

- Yes, Your Highest.

- I love an obedience order.

- Yes, sir. - Yes.

- I'm definitely obedient to you.

- Good boy.

You have...

no questions?

- Questions, sir?

- Questions? Do you have questions?

- If you give me an order, I will follow it.

- Yes, that's the way it should be.

- That's the way it is.

If you tell me to take this gun in there and kill him,

sir, then he is dead.

- Dikhan...

You have trained him well.

[laughs] - Thank you.

- That's the way it should be.

Makes me so proud.

- And me the same, Your Highest.

- Carry on.

- Your Highest...

where is he?

- Why do you think he walked you here?

He's in the punishment trailer.

- Yes, sir.

- Wait.

Don't you guys just love the win for someone in power, hm?

- That depends, sir.

- Hm. On what?

- If I'm the one that's going to be able

to carry out the duty.

- Yes, yes. You will.

- Thank you, Your Highest.

- Don't you think...

we should question him first?

- Hmm.

That's a great idea, Your Highest.

- Yes, we should. We should torture him.

- Yes, Your Highest.

- Okay, good. Do that.

Then kill him.

- Yes, sir.

- I'll be waiting in the torture trailer.

- Yes, Your Highest.

- Are you ready?

- I'm always ready.

- Good.

Let's go do it.

- Lead the way, sir.

Pretend to have your chains on and put your bag on.

- [panting]

- What a motley crew.

Sad, isn't it?

- Yes, sir, it is.

- Deserters.

Hm.

- They are the worst, sir.

- And this...government maggot.

- Don't worry. We're gonna teach his ass.

- Yes, we will.

You are coming with us, boy.

What the hell, Andrew?

- He's loose. - What?

- Look at 'em! They all loose!

- [panting]

- Whoa, whoa, whoa, he's got a fucking knife!

Drop it! Drop the knife!

- Okay, okay.

- Drop it.

- Okay, okay, okay.

- Kick that shit over here, man.

- Okay.

- You...son of a bitch.

You think you're slick, huh?

[chuckles]

Okay.

How did you know he had a knife?

- I watch everything, sir.

- Okay.

- ANDREW: Don't you fucking move.

- I got him.

- You two.

We got guns on you, big boy.

Get your ass up, take that bag off your head, and cuff her.

Cuff her!

- Do as he says.

- [clanking]

- Andrew--

- Don't you say my name, you fucking traitor.

- You're such a disappointment to me, boy.

Now cuff yourself.

- Got him good? He's secure?

You got him?

- Get up, come on, come on.

- Get him.

- I got you, man.

Come here.

- Move. Go to the side.

- Zane. - What?

- Are you okay? - I'm fine.

- Zane, what's the matter?

- Nothing.

- You can tell me. - I'm fine.

- Okay, if you don't wanna tell me...

then I'll go talk to the Ruth.

- I'm fine.

- Zane, we're the only ones in this together, okay?

We have to depend on each other.

- There's nothing you can do about it.

- I have the ear of The Highest.

There is a lot I can do about it.

- I'm fine. - Zane, tell me.

It's okay.

- I have to go.

- Zane, please.

- The movie is over and I have to go to the wash trailer.

- Lacey's here.

- She is?

- Yes, her and Oliver.

- They caught them?

- Yeah.

- What about Paula?

- I heard she got away.

- No, we have to help them.

- Look, the only reason I told you that

is so you can tell me what's going on.

If you go near that punishment trailer, you will be punished.

- I need to know if she's okay.

- Zane-- - I need to help her.

- Zane, there's nothing we can do.

- Oh God, River--

- Zane, please don't make me regret telling you everything

and cut you out of our plan.

- Okay, okay.

- Damn. - I'm--I'm sorry.

- Please do not go near the trailer.

Please.

- I won't.

- [pants, grunts]

- [clanking]

- Hello.

- [breathing quickens]

- Take the hood off.

- [gasps]

- Hello.

- Hi.

- Do you know who I am?

- You're The Highest.

- Yes. Have we met?

- When I was here with the sheriff.

- Yes. The sheriff.

- Yes.

- And you thought he was on your side.

- Yes.

- You thought I wouldn't know you were FBI?

- Yes.

- Well...

Welcome to the real Rakudushi's camp.

- Look, I'm a federal agent.

- I am so glad you said that.

Because you are a bright government man--

- Sir-- - No, no.

I am going to take just one finger at a time

until you tell me who you are working with

in my camp.

Mind if I get comfortable?

Dikhan?

- Wait.

- I don't like getting my whites dirty.

Do you know what this is?

- No.

- HIGHEST: It's acid. - Look, wait.

- I'm gonna take your fingers off one at a time.

And then I'm going to cauterize them in acid

so you don't bleed to death before you tell me.

If you don't tell me after the 10 fingers,

then I'm gonna start with your toes.

If that doesn't work...

then we get to the fun part.

Do you know what your maker stick is?

- I can assume. - You can assume?

- Yes.

- What is it?

- My penis.

- Oh, huh.

Look at how cute he says it.

- I don't know what makes you think

that we have an agent in here.

- Oh, you know why.

- We tried to get one in, but we couldn't.

- Really? - Yes.

- And you want me to believe that?

- I'm telling you the truth.

- Ah, you're gonna be telling me the truth all night.

- Sir? - Mmm...

Now I--I usually ask someone else to do this, but...

this one belongs to The Highest.

- Please...

- Where was the please

when my brothers and sisters were murdered

by your government?

- I'm sorry. - Nope.

Nope, you went to work for them.

You lost your sorry when you picked up that badge.

Strip him.

- Please. - Let's do this.

- You can't let them do this.

- You really should stop begging.

This is only gonna be as painful as you make it.

- I have nothing to tell.

- No? Okay.

We'll see.

- Wait.

- You can scream all you want. It actually excites me.

- Wait. Wait. - Lay him on the table.

Put him down. - Don't!

- Take his clothes off. Get him naked.

- [panting]

- Yes!

Get 'em tight, boys.

Let's see...

[mutters]

Which one should we start with?

You don't care?

- No, wait. No, wait.

- No waiting!

- [screams]

- Well, I am going to give you

30 seconds...

30 seconds...

for you to tell me.

Otherwise, we will go to the next finger.

- I don't know anything.

- No? - No.

- You don't?

- [pants] Please...

[sobs] Please...

- Nice ring.

Are you married?

- Please...

- Is "please" an answer?

- No, no. [whimpers] - No.

Then, are you married?

- Yes.

- Your wife's name? - It's Karen.

- Karen. Karen.

- [pants]

- So why does the tattoo under your ring say "Lynn"?

- Does it? Oh...

- I don't know what you're talking about!

- Yes.

Yes, it does.

- [whimpers]

- Lynn.

- Oh, so you're married to her?

- I don't know, I don't know,

I don't know what you're talking about.

- But is it the same Lynn?

It can't be. Is Lynn an agent?

- What? - Yeah, yeah, that's it.

That's it. It has to be it, right?

- What's it? - She has to be a federal agent.

Why else would they be trying to get her up in here

the way that she was? - Mmm...

- And they just never got her inside.

- Is that true?

Dikhan?

- She did say she wanted to join us.

- Well, why didn't you let her in?

- I was skeptical, sir.

- Hm, good boy.

- So when is she coming back?

- I'll give her a call and find out.

- Well...

This just got even better.

- No. - Yeah.

- No, please. Please help me.

- Oh...

I'm gonna hold here.

You find out and let me know.

- Yes, Your Highest.

- Please. Please, you can't let them do this.

- All right. Come on, let's go find her.

- Let's.

- Please, please!

- You first.

- Please...

[sobs]

- Dikhan: [chuckles]

- Well, Elder Mother?

- Yes.

- He did it.

- What did he do?

- He took a bride from your trailer.

- Yes, he did.

- That should make you proud.

- Yeah, yeah, it has...

- You don't seem that way.

Wh-wh-what is it?

- I just hope she makes him happy.

- Is that what it is?

- Yes.

- Well...

You're not jealous, are you?

- [scoffs] What are you talking about?

I'm an old woman.

- Well...too old to be jealous?

- You stop that talk now.

- I'm just saying.

- Well, I'm not jealous.

I just love taking care of The Highest, that's all.

- I can understand that.

- Just...so sad.

- It's all fine.

You've done a great job.

- Yes. I have. [chuckles]

- And you will be rewarded for it.

- Oh...

Thank you.

- You're welcome, Elder Mother Supreme.

- Ooh!

- [chuckling]

- Is that my title now?

- Yes.

- [sighs] Thank you.

- We got this.

You go on to bed.

- Oh, no, no, no.

I have to look after The Highest.

- Mm-mm.

You don't have to do that now.

Okay?

- I see.

- And she's glowing with that baby.

- MARVA: Yes, she is.

- It's perfect.

- Is it?

- What do you mean?

- Oh, nothing.

I-I-I'm sure you're right.

- Do you want me to walk you to your trailer?

- Oh no, I'm fine.

- Okay.

- Really, I-I'm fine alone.

Thank you.

- Okay. [chuckles]

- Ruth?

- Yes, Elder Mother?

- Come here, darling.

I don't know what to say.

- Maybe say you're happy for me, Elder Mother.

- Well, I am, I am.

- I mean...I was in the yellow trailer.

You taught me everything I know.

- Well, not everything you know.

- What do you mean?

- Well, there's some things you did not learn from me.

- Yes, Elder Mother.

- Well, I-I don't know what this new role is

for me or for you.

- Neither do I.

But I'm sure The Highest will explain it.

- Oh yes, I'm sure he will.

- Well...

Good night.

- Ruth? - Yes?

- Um, did you tell him that?

- Tell him what?

- That I brought the boy to the trailer.

- Oh no, no.

- Can you not tell him that, please?

- I'll never tell him that.

- And--and can you not tell him about the moonshine?

- I will never tell him that.

- Why not?

- What do you mean?

- Well, I...

I haven't been so nice to you.

- You were tough.

You taught me everything I needed to know.

And now look at me.

- Yes.

Look at you.

- Yeah, it's all fine, Elder Mother.

- Yes.

I can count on you?

- Yes, please do.

- Good night.

- Good night...

Elder Supreme.

- Oh! [laughs]

- Hmm...

- Oh, Elder Supreme. [laughs]

- Fuck you, you crazy bitch.

- What did I miss?

- River. - Sorry.

- You really need to stop.

- You should be more careful of the things you say out loud.

- I know that.

- Well, it doesn't seem that way.

- What do you want?

- To thank you.

- For?

- Joan told me that he fell for it.

- Good.

- On Monday, we will start getting the cash line done.

- Good. - So we're close?

- We are not that close.

- It'll be fine.

- We'll see.

- I need you to talk to Zane.

- Why?

- Something's wrong with her,

but she won't tell me what it is.

- Okay, I'll--I'll talk to her. - Can you go now?

- No, I'm waiting for The Highest.

- All right. He prefers me tonight.

- And how do you know that?

- He told me.

- Are you sure?

- You know he likes to switch it up sometimes.

- I will check with him in the morning.

- I'm telling you.

- All right, where is she?

- I need to tell you that I told her Lacey was here.

- What would you-- Why would you do that?

- I wanted to trade with her.

- Trade what?

- Something is bothering her and I need to know what it is.

We're the only four in this plan.

I have to make sure that we stay straight.

- Is that a word you use? - Ruth...

- No, you shouldn't have told her that.

- I know that.

- Where is she now?

- Last time I saw her, she was near the women's trailer.

But I think she may go and try to go

in the punishment trailer. - I got it, okay?

- You sure?

- River?

- Yeah, you got it.

- Your Highest?

- Yes.

- Oh, I am so happy for you.

- Thank you.

- I took the liberty to order some pregnancy tests.

- Why would we need those?

- Well, I think we should know who's coming and going and when.

- You don't think the women know?

- Well, Sister Beale was eight months.

We didn't know.

Of course, she's quite a large lady.

- Yeah, yeah, that's right.

- I think we should have advance notice

so we can prepare.

- Yes. Yeah, you do that.

- Well, is there anything I can get for you, Your Highest?

- No, no. Good night.

- Good night, Your Highest.

- [line trilling]

- [phone ringing]

- Oh, shit!

Uh...hey.

- Where are you?

- What do you mean?

- You were supposed to come.

- Oh yeah, um, the day got away from me.

- Hm.

So you're having second thoughts about joining us?

- No, no, no, no, not at all.

- So why don't you come?

- I'm trying.

- Dikhan: What?

- Can I, uh, call you tomorrow?

- Tomorrow?

- Yes.

- Okay.

- I'll, um...

I'll come in the morning.

- Okay. You sure?

- Yes.

- Okay.

We'll be here waiting for you.

- Okay.

- Is your husband okay with that?

- We're not doing so well, so it's okay, it's fine.

- Dikhan: I see. Okay.

- Yes, I'll--I'll call you.

- Okay.

- Bye.

Oh fuck!

- So what did she say? - Tomorrow.

- I see.

- That's crazy.

- What's crazy, sir?

- That she was trying to penetrate this place.

- Yeah.

- Knowing that her husband is...

- Yeah, right.

- Do they do that?

- Do they do what?

- Send in husband-wife teams?

- I wouldn't know, sir.

- It seems like an issue.

- Yeah.

It is an issue.

- I don't know.

- I mean, he said it is himself.

- Yeah.

- I mean, should we get back to him or...

- No.

Did you see The Highest?

- Yeah, I did.

- He gave me the signal to leave him in there

for the night.

- Yeah, I see.

- Build the anticipation for when she comes.

- Yeah, I understand.

- Let's go to my bed.

- What are you talking about, sir?

- I meant what I said earlier, Andrew.

- No, sir.

- I want to fuck you, Andrew.

- Sir, I already told you that is not my thing--Dikhan.

- It's all of our thing, Andrew.

It's a human thing.

- No, no.

- So I'm not good enough?

- Those are things that you only do with The Highest, sir.

- So I'm not good enough.

- Sir...there are others who would find that enjoyable, sir.

- You will do what I say.

- [sighs] Yes, sir.

- Now come with me.

- Dikhan.

Clearly you are angry, sir, about today, all right?

We've had a very long day, sir.

And I'm pretty certain that you need

some painkillers for your arm.

- Yeah, you're just like the others.

- What do you mean, sir?

- Dikhan isn't good enough for you.

- No, sir.

- Yeah.

- ANDREW: It's not what I mean, sir.

- Get out of my trailer, Andrew.

- Yes, sir.

- [door opens]

- Mmm!

[moans, gasps]

- [moaning]

- Just like that, right there.

- [moans]

Shit!

Malcolm, stop. I can't take--

I can't take any more! Fuck!

- You started this. - I said stop!

Shit!

God, you're just mad.

- Why did you have to tell him we were fucking, huh?

- 'Cause he made me mad.

- Shit.

[snorts] Whoo!

- I'm sorry?

- You didn't have to tell him we were fucking.

[sniffs]

- I shouldn't even be here with you anyway.

I'm Brian's wife and you're Cynthia's--

- Whoo! - --husband.

- [chuckles]

You're fucking him.

I didn't fuck her 'til she put me out.

- You know what?

I'm the crazy one dealing with your ass.

God!

Cynthia's my cousin.

- Yeah, you know she's crazy as shit too, right?

- Mm-mm.

Not gonna be talking shit about my cousin in front of me.

- Shut up, shut up, I don't wanna hear that shit.

- You can go!

- I can go? I paid for this fucking room.

- So what? I got my own money.

Now what? Huh? Huh?

- Shut up, shut up, just shut up, just shut the fuck up!

- Malcolm, who the fuck you think you're talking to?

- [sniffs] You want this?

- Hell yeah. - Let's go.

- [sniffs]

- Now shut the fuck up.

- [sniffs]

Don't confuse me with any of your side hussies, okay?

I'm not a damn dog.

- I know.

- Give me another bump.

- Damn, Lynn.

- [snorts]

- [snorts]

So who was that on the phone?

- None of your business.

- [sniffs]

You know I'm gonna find out.

- Yeah, yeah, you always do.

- [sniffs]

So?

- Okay, so look.

[sighs] So there's this--

there's this cult I found.

And they're-- - The Rakudushis.

- What do you know about it?

- [sniffs, snorts]

- Undercover.

Fucking crazy.

Anyway, look.

I was invited for the weekend.

And I think they're batshit crazy.

But they have the best damn drugs there.

- I have an idea.

- What? - Why don't you take me there?

- [laughs]

You kidding, right? - Mm-mm.

[snorts] Whoo!

Think about it.

You can tell them you recruited me.

- Nah, that Andrew guy's undercover.

- Ah. [laughs]

Yes!

We could fuck him so hard.

- You're trying to lose your job?

- No, just trying to have a little fun.

Besides...

I want the good shit too.

So? - You serious?

- Mm-hmm. You know where they are?

- Yeah, I do.

- So let's go.

- [sighs]

I don't know. - Mm, come on.

- Malcolm... - Mm-hmm?

- Malcolm... - Come here.

- Stop.

[moans] - No, no, no.

How about you wet it for me?

- Hmm?

- Wet it for me. Come on, suck my dick.

- Why do you have to say it like that?

- [laughs]

Come on, you know you want to.

No?

- You don't have to be so damn cocky.

- [sighs]

How about now?

Take a shot.

Hmm?

Mm...

- You ain't right.

- You know why.

[laughs]

- No. - Hi.

- Come. - Look, I was--

- Come here. - No, I have to talk to her.

- What are you doing?

- I-I-I was just--

- You can't help them.

- They're my friends.

- I know that.

- Aren't you worried about Sister Tally?

- Yes, I am. But you--

- But what?

- She made her decision.

- No.

No, you can't tell me you believe that.

- I believe that you can't help them.

- Ruth, I was just getting them food.

You know they don't feed them in there.

- Let me deal with that.

- How will you do that?

- You didn't hear?

I will be the wife of The Highest.

- Do you think you can persuade him to help them?

- I don't know.

But you have to let me try.

- Can you ask him to let me go?

- To let you go? - Yes.

- Zane-- - I just wanna leave.

- Well, you have to give me a moment

to try and get him past all the people

who just left.

- But will he?

- I don't know.

But I can try.

- I just want to go.

- Right now?

Go back to your trailer.

- Ruth--

- Wait, wait, wait, wait.

River said something was wrong.

- Oh, I was just worried about them, is all.

- Okay.

Go on to your trailer.

- Okay.

- I will help you.

I will.

You just have to be patient.

- Okay.

- [crickets chirping]

- Hey, Ruth.

- Yes, Your Highest.

- Where are you going?

- I was going to my trailer.

- Why?

- I thought you wanted to see River tonight.

- I do.

- Okay.

- Does that bother you?

- No, Your Highest.

- Are you sure?

- Yes.

- Not even a tad bit curious?

- You are The Highest.

And there are many things that you need from the Raku,

things that you are put on this planet for.

- You are right.

- Yes.

- Well, um... you get some rest.

I'll do the same.

- Yes, Your Highest.

- And I have taken the liberty

to do something different.

- And what is that, Your Highest?

- I have ordered pregnancy tests.

- You have? - Yes.

I want all the women to take them every month.

Can you take care of that?

- Of course I can.

- Good, good.

We'll start with this child right here.

- Yes, of course.

- Okay.

- Good night. - Good night.

- Good night.

- ♪

- [coughs]

Oh.

Uh...

Good morning.

- Good morning.

- How did you sleep?

- Well. - Good.

Good, good, good.

I'm sorry I was so rough.

God, I'm sorry.

Wow, you are really tied up here, aren't you?

[laughs]

There.

Good. Good.

Uh, well--[chuckles]

Go and fetch some water, please.

I'm going to need a bath.

- Yes, Your Highest.

- Okay.

Ooh!

What a beautiful night it was.

- Yes.

- Thank you for making it end so well.

- Yes, Your Highest.

- Okay, well, I have got an early morning meeting

with a man about some fingertips.

- Fingertips?

- Oh, um...inside joke.

- I see.

- But go and fetch Elder Mother to get my breakfast.

And, um, send Ruth to bathe me.

- Yes. - Okay.

Come on, hurry, hurry.

Hurry, hurry, hurry.

Thank you, River.

Thank you.

- Hi.

- This motherfucker is crazy.

- What happened?

- I thought he was in a good mood.

- What did he do?

- He was violent.

- I'm sorry.

- Joan, I don't know how much more of this I can take.

- We're calling the banks today.

As soon as he tells me.

- Okay, well, you better hurry.

- Okay.

You're gonna be okay, River.

- [sniffs]

No.

No, I'm not.

- I'm sorry.

- You better fucking hurry.

- What can I do to help you?

- He needs Ruth to bathe him.

- Okay, I'll get her.

- And he wants the Elder Mother to bring his breakfast.

- Okay, I'll take care of both.

You just go and detox.

- Go and what?

- Go and get yourself together.

- And what?

Just forget this?

- Yes, please.

- Fuck!

Okay.

- I'll handle everything now, just go.

- [sniffs]

- Elder Mother?

- Yes?

- The Highest would like his breakfast.

- Okay, yes, right away.

- Oh, and some water for his bath as well.

- Send the boys to get it.

- I will, right away.

Ruth.

- Yes?

- The Highest would like to see you.

- Yes.

- Are you all right?

- I'm fine.

- You sure?

- Do you know anything about pregnancy tests?

- Pregnancy tests?

- Yes.

He wants to test all the women here once a month.

- I haven't heard anything about that.

- Oh, someone does.

And I think it's that damn Elder Mother.

- Yeah, I'm sure.

Why?

- I'm supposed to be pregnant.

- Are you?

- No. - No.

- But I know she put that in his head.

- Yeah, that wouldn't surprise me.

- Let me know when they get here.

- I will. Here, I'll take that from you.

- Go on. - Okay.

- There's someone at the gate to see you.

- Who is it?

- She says her name is Lynn.

- Lynn?

- Yes.

- Well, here we go.

- Yes, sir, here we go.

- Let her in.

- Yes, sir, and the gentleman too?

- Gentleman? - Yes.

- What's his name?

- He wouldn't say, sir.

- Well...let him in.

- Yes, sir.

- See what this is about.

Look at her coming.

Like a moth to a flame.

- I see.

- You ready?

- I'm always ready, sir.

- Hey! - Hi.

- Sorry that I'm late. - Don't worry about it.

- Thank you for letting us in.
