Netflix’s short teaser is narrated entirely by Ruth Langmore (Garner). A fan-favorite character, Ruth has been on the show since the beginning, starting out as a money-laundering protégé to protagonist Marty Byrde (Bateman) then moving on to her own criminal enterprise. The teaser begins where we last saw Ruth, crying as she drives down a lonesome Missouri road as she narrates, “My childhood traumas are not like yours.” She goes on to say that she’s a cursed Langmore, plagued by violence and death, as we see a mixture of new footage and scenes from part 1 of season 4, including Ruth pulling a shotgun on Marty and his wifeWendy (Laura Linney). The teaser ends with the ominous text, “The end arrives, sooner than you think.”
Part 1 ofOzarkseason 4 premiered on Netflixon January 21st, 2022, and consisted of the first seven episodes of the fourteen-episode season. Part 1 saw the Byrde family tested in new ways as their teenage son Jonah (Skylar Gaertner) went to work for Ruth and her new business partner, the highly unpredictable heroin manufacturer Darlene Snell (Lisa Emery). It also introduced a new adversary in the form of Javi Elizandro (Alfonso Herrera), the nephew of cartel boss Omar Navarro (Felix Solis). Javi quickly proves to be a reckless and dangerous adversary to both the Byrde family and Ruth.
Ozarkseason 4 part 1ended with the tragic death of Ruth’s cousin Wyatt at the hands of Javi. This is not the first family member Ruth has lost during the series, but Wyatt was arguably the most innocent. This seems to have set Ruth on a warpath, as she seeks revenge against a very powerful and seemingly untouchable enemy. However, fans will have to wait a few more months until the explosive finale is revealed.
Ozarkseason 4 part 2will premiere on Netflix on April 29th, 2022.
