The Most Quotable Moment Of Ozark Season 4 Part 2 According To Fans
Characters on Netflix's "Ozark" are rarely short of something important to say. Memorable quotes from the show can run the gamut from the hilarious to the utterly chilling. In Season 4 alone, drug dealer Omar Navarro (Felix Solis) tells Marty Byrde (Jason Bateman), "You don't win until I win, Marty. Don't forget that." Marty's wife, Wendy (Laura Linney), dryly observes, "I like draining one swamp at a time" during her meeting with Agent Maya Miller (Jessica Frances Dukes). Even a quote that appears to be sweet and tender at first blush, such as Javier Elizonndro (Alfonso Herrera) vowing to put "blood over everything," can mean something, as this puts the Byrde family square in his sights. From characters determined to protect their self-interests to those determined to protect their families, "Ozark" is anything but a playground for the innocent. Blood will be spilled and hearts will be broken, but heroin and crack must continue to flow no matter the human cost.
And thus, as you can see, in spite of the show's dramatic leanings, "Ozark" definitely has its quotable and even funny moments. Fans who regularly post to the "Ozark" subreddit have pinpointed their most quotable moment for the second part of Season 4. Which character uttered the snappiest bon mot of the half-season, and what was the line?
Ruth Langmore's F-bomb made folks laugh
"My entry for most quotable line from the second half," posted u/marrythecauliflower to the "Ozark" subreddit with a screencap attached of Ruth Langmore (Julia Garner) captioned with the quote "I always got time for my f***ing government." The quote comes from the Season 4 finale, "A Hard Way to Go," and leads into the character's shocking end.
Other fans posting to the subreddit loved that moment as well. "What a poet, that Ruth Langmore," quipped u/pengouin85. "[G]oing to print this out and keep it next to my registration and insurance," joked u/jasperleopard. Fans dropped their other favorite Ruth quotes from Season 4 in the thread, including "The last time I met with a lawyer, I got water boarded," (from u/bravefacedude), and "go ahead and rain, stupid f***ing b***h!" (from u/Greyjoy91).
The consistently foul-mouthed Ruth has become quite the popular figure on the program for her fierceness and fearlessness, which is what helped make her unexpected Season 4 death all the more shocking for fans. Her words have become memes multiple times. The character first attained viral fame after blurting out the priceless expletive-laden saying "I know s*** about f***" in Season 2, which has since become something of a joking motto for fans of "Ozark" everywhere.
