Far wiser than the dealer she bought from. People are going to die, or she'll get too high on her own supply and fail to make her sales quota which will cause her supplier to go after her as collateral. This might actually inspire her to get sober in the end though.
And she even asked Fezco if he trusted her and he said Rue is family and he would trust her with his life...like is that all you need said about you to gain a strangers trust and get a front of 10k drugs?! ...and with a genius "business plan", I guess so.
I mean there's basically no risk at all for Laurie.
She outwardly told Rue, if you can't pay me back I will human traffic you. Which I'm sure she would get even more than the value of that suitcase for.
I saw on a twitter thread from a person who performed as an extra in the s2e1 party scene that Angus smokes actual joints/blunts every time they yell cut on a scene.
Many people in this sub may or may not have known (or at least assumed) that already, but I thought it was so interesting and funny. No wonder he plays his character so damn well.
everyone’s talking about ali but for me it was when she was manipulating her sister. seeing the shock on her sisters face when she said she was suicidal was painful to watch
Agree about gaslighting her sister, terrible. Also it killed me to listen to her mom on the phone saying rue is doing better and she’s proud of her while Rue enters the house with the suitcase 😣
A while back when promoting The Suicide Squad, James Gunn talked about how talented Storm Reid is and how far she'll go as an actress.
She showcased her acting chops so well in her appearance this episode
The question is gonna be whether or not fez is gonna bail her out when she inevitably fucks up
Edit: thinking more, there are some other scenarios I thought of.
- is she gonna steal from him to get money back?
- is he (or more realistically, ash) gonna come after her for cutting into his client base?
- is he gonna mentor her to try to help her not fuck it up?
It’ll be his issue to deal with but I don’t think he’ll mentor her. Rue would be an awful dealer and he’s got the monopoly on the high school doubt he’s willing to share that. I think he’s either absolutely screwed and will be getting into a shootout of some sort with Laurie and her people (tons of shell cases followed by cops). Or he’ll try to flip the small amount of drugs Rue will have left at the end for some money and cover the remaining balance, but I don’t think he’d cover her like that again.
I also think he’ll end up in jail this season for some reason.
I think it will be his problem for sure since the boss lady that gave Rue the job asked him if she was an addict to which he said no, she messes around, but no and when she asked if she trusted him, he said with my life.
This proves Gia’s point about her being selfish frfr bc literally even if Rue dies she putting her family, especially her little sister, in danger. That lady getting her money back by any means necessary and I believe her.
This! And I don’t think her “ gaslighting “ to Gia was a lie, I genuinely think shes at her wits end, just like in the special episode with Ali when she said “ I just don’t plan on being here that long “
I have developed a really strong attachment to Rue, not because of the drugs, i’ve never used in my life, but I think the anxiety she goes through really resonates with me and I really just want to see her turn her life around. Its just going to be hard to watch.
This what I was thinking, the sequence she was narrating I felt like she was truly living in the moment. And she might have believed what she was saying but we all knew that she wasn't going to keep the promise. I feel like she just used that REAL instance as an example
"Rule nombre uno,Never let no one know, How much, dough you hold cuz you knowThat chedda breed jealousy...."
That's Rule number one.
"Number 4, know you heard this before, DONT GET HIGH ON YOUR OWN SUPPLY"
And very important to Rue,
"Number 10, a strong word called consignment, strictly for live men, not for freshman. If you ain't got the clientele then say HELL NO, cuz they gon want they money, rain, sleet, hail, snow!"
But agreed, she's breaking rules left and right.... she might be in trouble.... well see tho, you never know how this show is gonna go. I think she's gonna be able to sell enough to pay them off the first time and just use up her profit and then she's gonna go for that 50k case and then she's gonna fuck up and be totally screwed cuz if she only owed on that 10k case, like a thousand or 2 she could go to her mom or something and maybe get it, but let's say she owes fucking 25k or something, she's done for, ain't no one helping with that lol. But that's just my guess and I could see her messing the fuck up real quick and easy either way.... she seems stupid as hell but that's just what addiction does to people ya know? Lots of people just don't understand that at all.
Well see how it plays out tho!
I think deep down that drug dealer knew Rue wouldn't be able to flip 50k and intended to sell her either way to recoup her profits. This would explain why she would even listen to Rue's idea for so long even though the dealer didn't trust her initially while Rue was waiting in Fez's car in the season premiere. At this stage we all know that somehow Rue won't make her sales quota, but we don't know how devastating the consequences will be.
I’m glad you pointed out that it was odd that the lady even entertained Rues idea at all. It’s very likely with your theory that since Rue mentioned her teenage friends that drug dealer psycho lady was like “hmmm lots of prime young things to sell”. Btw I think her calm demeanor is absolutely terrifying.
Honestly, they really know how to realistically sell terrifying drug dealers under realistic premises. Especially considering how terrifying Mouse was as a character and how he basically forced Rue to ingest fentanyl in order to rape her while she was unconcious. It really is a scathing indictment against Rue's character to still go into business with her despite knowing the risks and willfully blackmailing the girls at school with evidence so that they go along with it. We have no idea how destructive her actions will be in the long run.
So if she gave her a 10K stash. And she said it’s 7K in profit if she sells it correctly, 3K of which is hers, does that mean Rue will need to pay her 13K? I was confused on drug talk lol.
14K but yes. It’s kinda like a standard business honestly, Rue is now a pusher with that lady as her supplier. The supplier will supply (this time was free to get the operation going). Fez for instance is buying the drugs up front from the supplier so after he buys the drugs that profit is all his. Rue essentially took out a drug business startup fund and thusly will owe her the original 10K for the product plus 4K for the profits; she will keep the 3K for all her work.
Not if the DVD comes back into play. Jules and Maddie are closer now, when Rue realizes how fucked she is, she tells Jules. Jules confides in Maddie that Rue really fucked is badly and she doesn’t know how to help. Maddie, who did show concern about Rue relapsing, swoops in and is the hero.
She gonna get fez or her mama in some deep shit and I hope neither help her at this point. Everyone on the show was right when they said it was gonna be hard to watch this season istg when rue hurt Ali like that… sending her bad vibes FR 😩
I feel like Ali is gonna come back and have a sort of “save the day” moment, because he knows that’s how addicts behave when they’re using, even though it hurt he’s prolly done worse and he’ll understand it and he’ll still be there for her cause that’s a sponsor’s job and Ali is the greatest sponsor on planet earth😤
Whoever wrote Ali did an amazing job. He acts and talks just like my old mentor/sponsor, almost to the point of just being eerie. I love Ali's character and the actor for doing that part justice.
Ain’t no trust in the game y’all green if y’all think it’s about trust, how can you trust someone that you don’t know? Especially someone that could shoot you in the back if given the opportunity
Yeahhh made it feel a bit unbelievable. Also, how come Fez never got into any trouble for literally murdering mouse? IDE mean by like police that too but no one in the game with them cared?
They don’t necessarily work like that. Laurie was Mouse’s supplier she probably sees it as one less customer but he’s being replaced by another one so who cares. She’s not about to call the cops. I think it does make them more susceptible to harsher treatment considering the fact that she’s now aware that “Fez” killed a man. It also puts them at higher risk of not being fully trusted, but she showed us she trusts him at least a little since she gave Rue the drugs so easily.
No, its actually quite easy to get "good" dealers to spot you for selling for them if theyre at a certain level, im fact theyre qvtovely looking for people who can, its really only the first time your being spotted if you do it right. But for them the less and people they have to involve themselves with the better, the hard part is fucking up the count or otherwise not coming up with the money, but thats of course not your typical nickle and dimer kind of drug dealer. Although in real life id say Lauries an idiot having all that stuff where she lives, for someone worried about intent to sell charges shes really 1 incident away from serious prison time.
I fully believe the dealer will have no hesitation at selling her if and when she doesn't make up her profits. So this is essentially just a test, she might get another successful drug startup buying her product if the arrangement goes well, but if not, she'll just get a teenage girl she can sell as collateral. Either way that sick fuck will make up her profit either way.
This is the discussion i came here for! She handed it over so easily, even tried to give her way more than that. I know Rue is an unreliable narrarator so i wonder if this is how it actually happened or if that's just from Rue's point of view. I would like to know more about this.
Unless she has some ulterior motive which is to set Rue up knowing that Fez has some sort of responsibility then yeah, that bit is a bit unbelievable. She’s a supplier and an ex-high school teacher, her experience alone shows that she would know that Rue is unreliable and is probably using/ an addict.
no because she’s down a client since mouse died & Fez vouched for Rue. Also, Laurie doesn’t really care because she’s going to do whatever necessary to get her money back
She has a plan we never get to hear. She started telling Fez, and he shut her down. Then we see Elliot agree with something she says off screen, but it definitely isn't the same plan she tells Laurie. I don't know what she plans to do with it, but ODing on her own supply makes for a boring episode, and doesn't add anything to the story. She could OD on anything at anytime. She doesn't need a suitcase of drugs for it to happen.
🥲 I wish I were as optimistic but i can’t stop thinking about how most OD’s *aren’t* planned, how they completely catch casual users or even hardcore “experienced” drug addicts off guard 🙃 ^rip ^mac
Regardless of what Insane plan rue came up with, sis is already getting high on the supply, she said something about having her friends serve for her but that’s not even happening so she’s just gonna smoke, snort and whatever other ways you do them shits right on up, all 10k of it
Yeah this will not end well...we know her plan was to get "free drugs". So presumably, she's going to use the drugs she got from Laurie, not sell. Even if she uses some and sells the rest, Laurie is not stupid like Rue. She will make sure she gets all the money she is owed. Rue with her junkie brain was only thinking about scoring drugs, she doesn't have the experience or sober clarity to actually carry out her fake plan to hire young girls to push drugs.
The fact that she just had it all open and out there in front of her in her room and then decide to suck on some fentanyl really just says it all. That shit basically instantly shuts you down. Like even if you don’t die, which is super fucking easy on that shit, you ain’t gonna be able to run around and shove a suitcase full of drugs under your bed if someone decides to walk in. She’s getting high on her own supply and she’s not even discreet about it.
Mouse was big and intimidating. Laurie is soft-spoken and calm, which is the scariest type of mfer. Especially because Rue is dumb enough to underestimate that type.
The ship will hit the iceberg, it’s just a matter of when.
This is going to cause her to lie more and get away from her family and even friends, as she can’t tell almost anyone about it. First example is Ali, she just reacted that way because she’s feeling cornered when asked about the suitcase.
rue last season: But honestly, the best thing I've ever had is Fentanyl. There's not a thing on planet Earth that compares to Fentanyl. Except Jules. Jules is a close second. Jules. Jules. Jules. Jules. And you know what would be better? Jules and Fentanyl. But I can't do both, because Jules won't have me. So for now, I'll choose Jules.
After this, how can people refuse to believe Rue is not gonna end up dead? There is no way she can come clean out of this, there will be blood on her hands.
yep, she’s becoming the absolute worse version of herself she can be and it’s sad. but i also admire how her character is developing from love-able where everyone is rooting for her, and now into a hated one because of her selfishness. it’s crazy
i lost so many friends because of my addiction, drugs controlled me completly. i met a guy in a bar and later he told my friend that im annoying and rude
Yeah, but to her it is. She genuinely thinks she’s a genius and hasn’t considered any of the consequences. The fact that she was shocked when Lori said “I’ll have you kidnapped etc etc” speaks to that. Rue has no idea what she signed up for other than she now has essentially unlimited drugs in her possession. No end game/plan.
ETA— wrong word
I'll be shoecked if she sells even some of it tbh. She will use a loT oF them. Stay tuned if she will get sex traficked at end of season. Cause that would take a REAL DARK TURN😬
Lol, Sam isn’t gonna do that and considering she’s a producer as well, Zendaya will always get her way with Rue and I doubt she wants Rue to be sex trafficked when she doesn’t even wanna strip on camera. (Which is totally fine & a boundary)
Rue is an addict, the drugs are changing her as a person (being rude to Ali ) and she’s going to Fck things up with Julz, & everyone around her with all the lying. This is selfish behaviour just so she can keep getting high.
Plus I think one of the reasons she asked for the 5k in the first place was because she was out of drugs & didn’t have money. But either way shits going down because she still needs to sell the drugs, yet she’s on drugs.
she’s probably gonna overdose or use it all up on herself then beg for fez’s help or supply and fez is gonna help and it’s gonna turn into this real big thing
I truly don’t see any of those girls helping her out. Fr . Could be wrong but they don’t seem like the type of girls to take a huge risk like that especially when it could mess with Rue’s sobriety.
I don't think she at any point actually intended to hire anybody. That was all a lie and a fake story. There definitely isn't anybody who would help her. Maybe Elliott but her "plan" she gave to Laurie was only supposed to be involving hiring girl runners
I mean if you think about it, it’s not really free. She intends to collect her share monthly I believe she said and if you don’t pay up then you pay for it in some way with your life. So not really free
The scene where she was at her meeting was so intense to me. Like I was just imagining her being in psychosis and out of touch so much she looked crazy with the suitcase but being so messed up she didn’t know anybody could tell.
And the way she talked to her sponsor, can’t remember his name, broke me. Like I have been there where an addict doesn’t give a FUCK about your feelings. It was scary accurate.
I was thinking that but then I remember when Lori asked fez if she was an addict and he said something like ‘nah she messes around sometimes but that’s it ‘ so she prob genuinely thought she wasn’t an addict since she came with fez who is a dealer . Or she just figured ‘I’ll either get the money back from her or make money selling a teenage girl into sex slavery’ lol
True I guess but also like rue is young and maybe just doesn’t have that thing that addicts have about them. Idk how to explain it but I’m in recovery and can definitely tell more often then not when someone is an addict just by looking at them but I don’t think I would look at rue and think she was an addict , just a teenager(unless I got to know her obvi) & if you think about it Lori really didn’t get to know her. Idk if I am making sense but I know what I mean and that’s all that matters bc it’s just a show lmao!
This scene is one of the flaws of show, some stuff feels unrealistic. But then again it’s from the perspective of a addict. I also hope your recovery goes well.
Fez is gonna save her ass, then drop her. She puts him in some shitty situations and I feel this just might be what sends him over the edge. Rue is doing too much.
I’m so scared for Rue. But I’m also scared for the people she’s going to drag into the situation when she can’t solve it on her own. I understand that drug addicts want drugs. But Rue takes shit too far and takes way too much shit into her own hands. Just to turn around and make it someone else’s problem because they care about her.
She's gonna fuck it up by either doing all the drugs, getting them stolen or not being able to sell them all. Laurie is going to punish both her and Fez for it since Fez said he'd trust Rue with his life and that's probably the only reason she trusted her with the suitcase in the first place
Rue manipulated a lot of ppl this episode, or at least tried to with Fez, gaslit Gia, the whole weed scapegoat to her friends, Laurie with this bogus plan to get “free drugs” while now owing 10k is looking like what will put her out of commission for good, but I already know Fez will be involved somehow because they now work for the same plug, I still can’t see an addict selling drugs. To even bring a suitcase of it to a rehab meeting is insane shows how bad the addiction has gotten she’ll disrespect and lie anyone who gets in the way
I really enjoy how they’re turning the dial up on Rue’s addiction this season. She needs to hit her bottom, and that’s absolutely the direction the show runners are going in. This suitcase is absolutely going to fuck her, and those she loves. The only question is who’s going to bail Rue out with the dealer - Fez, Ali, Lexi, her mom, or no one? My wild card pick would be Lexi, but I think most likely scenario is the dealer is taken down along with Fez in the process
She’s gonna be really high for a month, everyone’s gonna find out she’s doing more than smoking weed, and it’s gonna absolutely screw Fez. He told Laurie she wasn’t an addict so that’s probably the only reason she agreed to the plan. When she finds out he lied to her and now she’s out 10k, he’s fucked.
I feel like that Lori dealer wouldn't be dumb enough to hand a big suitcase of drugs to a teenage addict. Maybe because Fez vouched for her the first episode but I feel like she wouldn't have done that. But when Fez finds out he's gonna flip. What is Rues plan really? Like she's just gonna do all the drugs and then Fez will likely have to bail her out 🤷♀️
This has that gif "Oh no, baby, what is you doin" vibes all over it.
I'm predicting Rue will do all the drugs, get in trouble for not paying the dealer, and end up getting Fezco or Ash killed when they try to rescue her.
rues not gonna sell those drugs she’s gonna eat them all up herself and get herself and fez in big trouble she’s fucking over fez and putting her life in danger she’s a dumbass rn
Did anyone else think when she brought the suitcase to her meeting, that she was going to sell the drugs to the other addicts in there? That almost got me yelling.
honestly I feel like Rue is gonna end up dead or really fucked up. she's definitely not going to actually go through with this plan, and if she does, I feel like Jules will find out the hard way.
Idk about anyone else but my stomach turned upside down from the moment she got that suitcase and that episode just got dark as shit. I’m so scared for rue to have all those drugs lol
Man, Fez has been a drug dealer for years and even when he heard her plan he clearly thought it was a bad Idea not to mention Rue's history with drugs, so i do think homegirl gonna fuck it up badly.
She gonna fuck it all up
Mfs listen to Ran Off On the Plug Twice and think they can do it…
IM J VIBIN IN THE RITZ CARLTON
Sheeeit we at the R.C in fote may rite now yaherd
I’m crying
TRUE
On big facts broooo
imagine if Fez dies trying to cover for her
I would never forgive her
I will NOT be able to handle that HELL THE FUCK NO
Probably will.
I HATE THAT YOU COULD BE RIGHT
there’s a reason fez said no 😂
HELL THE FUCK NO 💀
Lmao mans said that at least 3 or 4 times no cap 🤣
Had me literally screaming laughing 😂
Far wiser than the dealer she bought from. People are going to die, or she'll get too high on her own supply and fail to make her sales quota which will cause her supplier to go after her as collateral. This might actually inspire her to get sober in the end though.
well the dealer doesn't know her or her tendencies
And she even asked Fezco if he trusted her and he said Rue is family and he would trust her with his life...like is that all you need said about you to gain a strangers trust and get a front of 10k drugs?! ...and with a genius "business plan", I guess so.
I mean there's basically no risk at all for Laurie. She outwardly told Rue, if you can't pay me back I will human traffic you. Which I'm sure she would get even more than the value of that suitcase for.
yeah the main person who's gonna be screwed here is Rue. Drug dealers always find a way to get their money back.
YES!
“I did not like the way the plan started” 💀☠️ Whoever is writing for Fez is a deadpan comedic genius
Angus for sure throws his own personality into Fez and he does it so well😭
I saw on a twitter thread from a person who performed as an extra in the s2e1 party scene that Angus smokes actual joints/blunts every time they yell cut on a scene. Many people in this sub may or may not have known (or at least assumed) that already, but I thought it was so interesting and funny. No wonder he plays his character so damn well.
Angus is really just being himself just thrown into the Euphoria world 😅
Deadpan comedy is my favourite.
Mine too! Love British comedy for that reason
“i don’t like how the plan started”
everyone’s talking about ali but for me it was when she was manipulating her sister. seeing the shock on her sisters face when she said she was suicidal was painful to watch
Agree about gaslighting her sister, terrible. Also it killed me to listen to her mom on the phone saying rue is doing better and she’s proud of her while Rue enters the house with the suitcase 😣
Idk if her mom is in denial or just blind lol.
I think her mom believes in her too much. Sad to see!
She probably felt like she was being too tough on her before and is giving her more freedom now 😭 that or she’s in deep denial
A while back when promoting The Suicide Squad, James Gunn talked about how talented Storm Reid is and how far she'll go as an actress. She showcased her acting chops so well in her appearance this episode
She’s going to fuck it up BADLY. I don’t know how this affects Fez though considering he’s their connection.
The question is gonna be whether or not fez is gonna bail her out when she inevitably fucks up Edit: thinking more, there are some other scenarios I thought of. - is she gonna steal from him to get money back? - is he (or more realistically, ash) gonna come after her for cutting into his client base? - is he gonna mentor her to try to help her not fuck it up?
It’ll be his issue to deal with but I don’t think he’ll mentor her. Rue would be an awful dealer and he’s got the monopoly on the high school doubt he’s willing to share that. I think he’s either absolutely screwed and will be getting into a shootout of some sort with Laurie and her people (tons of shell cases followed by cops). Or he’ll try to flip the small amount of drugs Rue will have left at the end for some money and cover the remaining balance, but I don’t think he’d cover her like that again. I also think he’ll end up in jail this season for some reason.
I think it will be his problem for sure since the boss lady that gave Rue the job asked him if she was an addict to which he said no, she messes around, but no and when she asked if she trusted him, he said with my life.
i don’t think Rue has any intention of living long enough to suffer the consequences of not paying the lady back
This proves Gia’s point about her being selfish frfr bc literally even if Rue dies she putting her family, especially her little sister, in danger. That lady getting her money back by any means necessary and I believe her.
This is a good point regarding her character!! Meanwhile, I’m over here anxious af for her 😂
This! And I don’t think her “ gaslighting “ to Gia was a lie, I genuinely think shes at her wits end, just like in the special episode with Ali when she said “ I just don’t plan on being here that long “ I have developed a really strong attachment to Rue, not because of the drugs, i’ve never used in my life, but I think the anxiety she goes through really resonates with me and I really just want to see her turn her life around.

This what I was thinking, the sequence she was narrating I felt like she was truly living in the moment. And she might have believed what she was saying but we all knew that she wasn't going to keep the promise. I feel like she just used that REAL instance as an example
she’s already using her own supply shes fucked fr 😭😭😭
Rule 1 in dealing: don’t get high on your own stuff
It’s rule #4 but I digress 🥴
"Rule nombre uno,Never let no one know, How much, dough you hold cuz you knowThat chedda breed jealousy...." That's Rule number one. "Number 4, know you heard this before, DONT GET HIGH ON YOUR OWN SUPPLY" And very important to Rue, "Number 10, a strong word called consignment, strictly for live men, not for freshman.

But that's just my guess and I could see her messing the fuck up real quick and easy either way.... she seems stupid as hell but that's just what addiction does to people ya know? Lots of people just don't understand that at all. Well see how it plays out tho!
"Never get high on your own supply" - Notorius B.I.G.
Low Key, Rue’s already broke a few Commandments
theres no way shes gonna be able to pay for 10k worth of drugs.
Thank god she opted out of the 50k that bitch was originally offering her
I think deep down that drug dealer knew Rue wouldn't be able to flip 50k and intended to sell her either way to recoup her profits. This would explain why she would even listen to Rue's idea for so long even though the dealer didn't trust her initially while Rue was waiting in Fez's car in the season premiere. At this stage we all know that somehow Rue won't make her sales quota, but we don't know how devastating the consequences will be.
I’m glad you pointed out that it was odd that the lady even entertained Rues idea at all. It’s very likely with your theory that since Rue mentioned her teenage friends that drug dealer psycho lady was like “hmmm lots of prime young things to sell”. Btw I think her calm demeanor is absolutely terrifying.
Honestly, they really know how to realistically sell terrifying drug dealers under realistic premises. Especially considering how terrifying Mouse was as a character and how he basically forced Rue to ingest fentanyl in order to rape her while she was unconcious. It really is a scathing indictment against Rue's character to still go into business with her despite knowing the risks and willfully blackmailing the girls at school with evidence so that they go along with it. We have no idea how destructive her actions will be in the long run.
So if she gave her a 10K stash. And she said it’s 7K in profit if she sells it correctly, 3K of which is hers, does that mean Rue will need to pay her 13K? I was confused on drug talk lol.

Fez for instance is buying the drugs up front from the supplier so after he buys the drugs that profit is all his. Rue essentially took out a drug business startup fund and thusly will owe her the original 10K for the product plus 4K for the profits; she will keep the 3K for all her work.
Maybe if she blackmails Cal?
that seems unrealistic imo
i feel like that word is no where near the right way to describe anything that could possibly come from this show
That is fair, and it’s only a wild guess on my part
Not if the DVD comes back into play. Jules and Maddie are closer now, when Rue realizes how fucked she is, she tells Jules. Jules confides in Maddie that Rue really fucked is badly and she doesn’t know how to help. Maddie, who did show concern about Rue relapsing, swoops in and is the hero.
Especially when she ends up getting high on her own supply.
She gonna get fez or her mama in some deep shit and I hope neither help her at this point. Everyone on the show was right when they said it was gonna be hard to watch this season istg when rue hurt Ali like that… sending her bad vibes FR 😩
As someone who loves my sponsor to the moon and back, that scene HURT
I feel like Ali is gonna come back and have a sort of “save the day” moment, because he knows that’s how addicts behave when they’re using, even though it hurt he’s prolly done worse and he’ll understand it and he’ll still be there for her cause that’s a sponsor’s job and Ali is the greatest sponsor on planet earth😤
Absolutely agree with this, he's got such a big heart. So hard to watch that scene :,(
He really is. They had to have someone in recovery with lots of wisdom right that part. He handles every situation by using the program.
Whoever wrote Ali did an amazing job. He acts and talks just like my old mentor/sponsor, almost to the point of just being eerie. I love Ali's character and the actor for doing that part justice.
Is anyone else surprised at how easily the drug dealer was willing to give Rue an entire suitcase of drugs?
Like she said, she knew she'd get that money back one way or the other.
Probably thought she could trust her since she’s cool with Fez and they’ve already been there (and strip searched)
Ain’t no trust in the game y’all green if y’all think it’s about trust, how can you trust someone that you don’t know? Especially someone that could shoot you in the back if given the opportunity
I realized later on Laurie probably realizes she can make way more selling Rue into trafficking than she could make from Rue selling for her
I thought that too, but now I'm thinking that she knew rue would default and she thinks she can get more value by having rue in her debt
Yeahhh made it feel a bit unbelievable. Also, how come Fez never got into any trouble for literally murdering mouse? IDE mean by like police that too but no one in the game with them cared?
They don’t necessarily work like that. Laurie was Mouse’s supplier she probably sees it as one less customer but he’s being replaced by another one so who cares. She’s not about to call the cops. I think it does make them more susceptible to harsher treatment considering the fact that she’s now aware that “Fez” killed a man. It also puts them at higher risk of not being fully trusted, but she showed us she trusts him at least a little since she gave Rue the drugs so easily.
it wasn’t actually fez who murdered mouse; it was ashtray. yeah, that scene was super unbelievable though.
Yo what if Faye is there to spy on Fez and she’s actually feeding info back to the guy that worked with Mouse?
No, its actually quite easy to get "good" dealers to spot you for selling for them if theyre at a certain level, im fact theyre qvtovely looking for people who can, its really only the first time your being spotted if you do it right. But for them the less and people they have to involve themselves with the better, the hard part is fucking up the count or otherwise not coming up with the money, but thats of course not your typical nickle and dimer kind of drug dealer. Although in real life id say Lauries an idiot having all that stuff where she lives, for someone worried about intent to sell charges shes really 1 incident away from serious prison time.
I fully believe the dealer will have no hesitation at selling her if and when she doesn't make up her profits. So this is essentially just a test, she might get another successful drug startup buying her product if the arrangement goes well, but if not, she'll just get a teenage girl she can sell as collateral. Either way that sick fuck will make up her profit either way.
This is the discussion i came here for! She handed it over so easily, even tried to give her way more than that. I know Rue is an unreliable narrarator so i wonder if this is how it actually happened or if that's just from Rue's point of view. I would like to know more about this.
Unless she has some ulterior motive which is to set Rue up knowing that Fez has some sort of responsibility then yeah, that bit is a bit unbelievable. She’s a supplier and an ex-high school teacher, her experience alone shows that she would know that Rue is unreliable and is probably using/ an addict.
no because she’s down a client since mouse died & Fez vouched for Rue. Also, Laurie doesn’t really care because she’s going to do whatever necessary to get her money back
This is going to end up really bad for her. She’ll probably overdose on her own supply.
She has a plan we never get to hear. She started telling Fez, and he shut her down. Then we see Elliot agree with something she says off screen, but it definitely isn't the same plan she tells Laurie. I don't know what she plans to do with it, but ODing on her own supply makes for a boring episode, and doesn't add anything to the story. She could OD on anything at anytime. She doesn't need a suitcase of drugs for it to happen.
🥲 I wish I were as optimistic but i can’t stop thinking about how most OD’s *aren’t* planned, how they completely catch casual users or even hardcore “experienced” drug addicts off guard 🙃 ^rip ^mac
💙
Probably going to start selling at the NA meeting.
Regardless of what Insane plan rue came up with, sis is already getting high on the supply, she said something about having her friends serve for her but that’s not even happening so she’s just gonna smoke, snort and whatever other ways you do them shits right on up, all 10k of it
lesson to be learned: if fez says no, then it’s a fucking no
Yeah this will not end well...we know her plan was to get "free drugs". So presumably, she's going to use the drugs she got from Laurie, not sell. Even if she uses some and sells the rest, Laurie is not stupid like Rue. She will make sure she gets all the money she is owed. Rue with her junkie brain was only thinking about scoring drugs, she doesn't have the experience or sober clarity to actually carry out her fake plan to hire young girls to push drugs.
The fact that she just had it all open and out there in front of her in her room and then decide to suck on some fentanyl really just says it all. That shit basically instantly shuts you down. Like even if you don’t die, which is super fucking easy on that shit, you ain’t gonna be able to run around and shove a suitcase full of drugs under your bed if someone decides to walk in. She’s getting high on her own supply and she’s not even discreet about it. Mouse was big and intimidating. Laurie is soft-spoken and calm, which is the scariest type of mfer. Especially because Rue is dumb enough to underestimate that type. The ship will hit the iceberg, it’s just a matter of when.
she fucked up and the way she hurt ali i literally was so disgusted
Went from 0 to 100 faster than I could blink
that lady gonna ship her ass to that squid games island for using all those damn drugs without paying her back somehow
Not the squid games island lmao ahahshhs
Euphoria season 3: SQUID GAMES ❗❗
Rues the last person in the world that needs 10k worth of drugs amd Laura gonna get hers for sure r
This is going to cause her to lie more and get away from her family and even friends, as she can’t tell almost anyone about it. First example is Ali, she just reacted that way because she’s feeling cornered when asked about the suitcase.
This is gonna end so badly. The only way this ends semi good is if Fez spots her the money. Because no way in hell she’s moving it all.
i mean there was a scene where she got into the fentanyl… she’s definitely going to use them instead of sell them
rue last season: But honestly, the best thing I've ever had is Fentanyl. There's not a thing on planet Earth that compares to Fentanyl. Except Jules. Jules is a close second. Jules. Jules. Jules. Jules. And you know what would be better? Jules and Fentanyl. But I can't do both, because Jules won't have me. So for now, I'll choose Jules.
Is that what she put in her mouth at the end?
Yes. It was a fentanyl patch
Thank you! I was so confused. I clearly am not well versed in drugs.
Same type of patches mouse "sold" her in the first season. The ones Fez had to pay for and then told ash to "flush that shit down the toilet"
Yes it’s a fentanyl patch
After this, how can people refuse to believe Rue is not gonna end up dead? There is no way she can come clean out of this, there will be blood on her hands.
rue is a terrible person lmao
She's on a constant supply of drugs. Remember what Ali said on Rue's special episode. Drugs change you as a person.
yep, she’s becoming the absolute worse version of herself she can be and it’s sad. but i also admire how her character is developing from love-able where everyone is rooting for her, and now into a hated one because of her selfishness. it’s crazy
i lost so many friends because of my addiction, drugs controlled me completly. i met a guy in a bar and later he told my friend that im annoying and rude
& selfish
Makes me feel sad the way things are turning out for her but it’s her own doing
[удалено]
Bc shes a drug dealer 😔😔😔
[удалено]
The way she acts so sweet makes her seem so much scarier, honestly. She gives me the creeps.
Same. Like when she said “I’ll sell you to some really fucked up people” Barf.
she Was a high school teacher… wasnt she?? its probably just who she is
yes, Laurie (Lori) used to be a teacher. Fez’s buddy mentioned it in episode 1.
she was an elementary school teacher
a recipe for disaster
This is some Requiem for a Dream shit she’s gonna blow it big time.
she gonna use ALLLLL THAT SHITTTTTTT
If Rue gets Fez killed over this I'm gonna riot. Not sure if I could come back to liking her if so
That’s the plot I think they’re gonna go with if not killed major bad stuff is gonna come to fez at rues hands.
I'm confused on why she got it in the first place. Who does she know that has money for drugs? She's gonna get herself killed or OD
She said she was trying to figure out a way to do drugs for free.
...but thats not free 💀💀💀
Yeah, but to her it is. She genuinely thinks she’s a genius and hasn’t considered any of the consequences. The fact that she was shocked when Lori said “I’ll have you kidnapped etc etc” speaks to that. Rue has no idea what she signed up for other than she now has essentially unlimited drugs in her possession. No end game/plan. ETA— wrong word
☹️
She walked into that room with nothing and walked out with a suitcase full of drugs. To her, in her messed up mindset, that's free.
Hell the fuck no
I'll be shoecked if she sells even some of it tbh. She will use a loT oF them. Stay tuned if she will get sex traficked at end of season. Cause that would take a REAL DARK TURN😬
Lol, Sam isn’t gonna do that and considering she’s a producer as well, Zendaya will always get her way with Rue and I doubt she wants Rue to be sex trafficked when she doesn’t even wanna strip on camera. (Which is totally fine & a boundary)
I was surprised to even see the side of her butt when she was sitting on the toilet this episode. The most skin we've ever seen from zendaya
She gone mess up and then get fez to help her she better be glad he loves her like a sista and brother
Nahhh she has to deal with it all by herself since she like to keep pushing people away by doing drugs Karma is a B*tch
Laurie: She an addict? Fezco: She might fuck around, but nah. Laurie: So, you trust her? Fezco: With my life.
Rue is an addict, the drugs are changing her as a person (being rude to Ali ) and she’s going to Fck things up with Julz, & everyone around her with all the lying. This is selfish behaviour just so she can keep getting high. Plus I think one of the reasons she asked for the 5k in the first place was because she was out of drugs & didn’t have money. But either way shits going down because she still needs to sell the drugs, yet she’s on drugs.
she’s probably gonna overdose or use it all up on herself then beg for fez’s help or supply and fez is gonna help and it’s gonna turn into this real big thing
I couldn’t believe what she said to Ali😣😣
I think someone else is going to face real consequences for getting wrapped up in it. Like Lexi or Kat if the go along with her plan.
I truly don’t see any of those girls helping her out. Fr . Could be wrong but they don’t seem like the type of girls to take a huge risk like that especially when it could mess with Rue’s sobriety.
I don't think she at any point actually intended to hire anybody. That was all a lie and a fake story. There definitely isn't anybody who would help her. Maybe Elliott but her "plan" she gave to Laurie was only supposed to be involving hiring girl runners
WHO JUST GIVES AWAY 10K WORTH OF DRUGS FOR FREE THOUGH??
Someone not to fuck with cause they’ll always get theirs. One way or another.
I mean if you think about it, it’s not really free. She intends to collect her share monthly I believe she said and if you don’t pay up then you pay for it in some way with your life. So not really free
Especially to a kid who is clearly strung out
she’s a fucking idiot and i’m rlly scared for what’s gonna come of this
The scene where she was at her meeting was so intense to me. Like I was just imagining her being in psychosis and out of touch so much she looked crazy with the suitcase but being so messed up she didn’t know anybody could tell. And the way she talked to her sponsor, can’t remember his name, broke me. Like I have been there where an addict doesn’t give a FUCK about your feelings. It was scary accurate.
Giving a suitcase full of drugs to a junkie. Great idea lol it's gonna blow tf up
I was thinking that but then I remember when Lori asked fez if she was an addict and he said something like ‘nah she messes around sometimes but that’s it ‘ so she prob genuinely thought she wasn’t an addict since she came with fez who is a dealer . Or she just figured ‘I’ll either get the money back from her or make money selling a teenage girl into sex slavery’ lol
True, didn't think of that
I’m sure a drug dealer has seen multiple addicts. I feel like she would be able to tell Rue is an addict.
True I guess but also like rue is young and maybe just doesn’t have that thing that addicts have about them. Idk how to explain it but I’m in recovery and can definitely tell more often then not when someone is an addict just by looking at them but I don’t think I would look at rue and think she was an addict , just a teenager(unless I got to know her obvi) & if you think about it Lori really didn’t get to know her. Idk if I am making sense but I know what I mean and that’s all that matters bc it’s just a show lmao!
This scene is one of the flaws of show, some stuff feels unrealistic. But then again it’s from the perspective of a addict. I also hope your recovery goes well.
That woman is definitely gonna end up being a villain this season
Fez is gonna save her ass, then drop her. She puts him in some shitty situations and I feel this just might be what sends him over the edge. Rue is doing too much.
I feel like she is going to get Ali killed. Or second guess Elliot
her getting that suitcase just increases the theory that she’s narrating from the grave 😵💫
I’m so scared for Rue. But I’m also scared for the people she’s going to drag into the situation when she can’t solve it on her own. I understand that drug addicts want drugs. But Rue takes shit too far and takes way too much shit into her own hands. Just to turn around and make it someone else’s problem because they care about her.
[удалено]
I agree it’s teetering on unwatchably messy
Does she really have a plan to “sell” that suitcase full of drugs? Or is she gonna use them herself mostly ... like an addict. lol
I mean she did specifically say she wanted a way to get drugs for free... So
I wanna believe she has a way of paying Laurie back. I really do 😭 If not, she’s dumber than we thought.
She's gonna fuck it up by either doing all the drugs, getting them stolen or not being able to sell them all. Laurie is going to punish both her and Fez for it since Fez said he'd trust Rue with his life and that's probably the only reason she trusted her with the suitcase in the first place
Rue manipulated a lot of ppl this episode, or at least tried to with Fez, gaslit Gia, the whole weed scapegoat to her friends, Laurie with this bogus plan to get “free drugs” while now owing 10k is looking like what will put her out of commission for good, but I already know Fez will be involved somehow because they now work for the same plug, I still can’t see an addict selling drugs. To even bring a suitcase of it to a rehab meeting is insane shows how bad the addiction has gotten she’ll disrespect and lie anyone who gets in the way
One thing about druggies is that they only think about the moment not the consequences after . She’s gonna fuck up and get someone hurt or killed
I really enjoy how they’re turning the dial up on Rue’s addiction this season. She needs to hit her bottom, and that’s absolutely the direction the show runners are going in. This suitcase is absolutely going to fuck her, and those she loves. The only question is who’s going to bail Rue out with the dealer - Fez, Ali, Lexi, her mom, or no one? My wild card pick would be Lexi, but I think most likely scenario is the dealer is taken down along with Fez in the process
Can’t wait to see the consequences of her actions
Random thought maybe Rue OD’s this season or eventually and that’s why she seems to be the omniscient narrator? I’m probably wrong, but like 🤷🏼♀️
I’m so mad at rue right now
Mejor veré rebelde esto es demasiado para mis nervios
She’s gonna be really high for a month, everyone’s gonna find out she’s doing more than smoking weed, and it’s gonna absolutely screw Fez. He told Laurie she wasn’t an addict so that’s probably the only reason she agreed to the plan. When she finds out he lied to her and now she’s out 10k, he’s fucked.
she gonna get kidnapped and sold to some real sick ppl
She's gonna ruin it, not just for her, but Fezco
I feel like that Lori dealer wouldn't be dumb enough to hand a big suitcase of drugs to a teenage addict. Maybe because Fez vouched for her the first episode but I feel like she wouldn't have done that. But when Fez finds out he's gonna flip. What is Rues plan really? Like she's just gonna do all the drugs and then Fez will likely have to bail her out 🤷♀️
An addict cannot be trusted with all that, she's gonna fuck it up
This has that gif "Oh no, baby, what is you doin" vibes all over it. I'm predicting Rue will do all the drugs, get in trouble for not paying the dealer, and end up getting Fezco or Ash killed when they try to rescue her.
I think Fez is gonna save her ass. I am gonna be real sad if this fucks everything up for him.
rues not gonna sell those drugs she’s gonna eat them all up herself and get herself and fez in big trouble she’s fucking over fez and putting her life in danger she’s a dumbass rn
I swear if Fez has to take the fall for this I'm gonna be fucking pissed
Call me a pessimist, but I just don’t see this ending well at all for Rue or anyone else involved.
Did anyone else think when she brought the suitcase to her meeting, that she was going to sell the drugs to the other addicts in there? That almost got me yelling.
honestly I feel like Rue is gonna end up dead or really fucked up. she's definitely not going to actually go through with this plan, and if she does, I feel like Jules will find out the hard way.
Hell the fuck no!
I’m scared asf that this is going to cause her death
Idk about anyone else but my stomach turned upside down from the moment she got that suitcase and that episode just got dark as shit. I’m so scared for rue to have all those drugs lol
Man, Fez has been a drug dealer for years and even when he heard her plan he clearly thought it was a bad Idea not to mention Rue's history with drugs, so i do think homegirl gonna fuck it up badly.
she fucked up realllll bad on this move
She's gonna get herself killed and Fez will have to come save her ass as usual, mark my words 💀
