First Rewatch [SPOILERS]
So I decided to rewatch Ozark and I’m currently in season 3 episode 3. Seasons 1 and 2 were kind of hazy for me especially the preacher and agent petty plots but now season 3 is very fresh on my mind. I have some takes and I wanna know what you guys think!
Marty knew the danger of the Snells, literally warned the preacher that he needs to go back on the water. He doesn’t. His wife is murdered. Somehow it’s Marty’s fault.
The preacher tries to kidnap Wendy. Marty tells him the cops aren’t coming. The preacher tries to take Wendy with him, Marty kills him. Now this is the turning point because I think Marty lost his edge at that moment.
Cade killing Petty out of anger was a bad end for Petty. He was absolutely insane but I thought he added a “I’m gonna get them” aspect to the show. His death kinda added up to nothing.
(I’m not to this part of the season but I know what’s coming) Marty told Wendy MULTIPLE times to send her brother home… and we all know what happens in the end.
Marty is not perfect but I think he knew the danger that came with the job immediately. He knew that anyone could die and he tried to save people but no one listened to him.
