After escaping Laurie’s compound and returning to Alamo’s operation, Rue is gifted a bottle of Percocet by Alamo to help with her injuries, which she takes to Ali’s apartment before overdosing in her sleep. Ali wakes the following morning to find her unresponsive, and when he crushes one of the pills, he discovers they had been laced with fentanyl, confirming that Alamo had deliberately sealed her fate after growing suspicious of her loyalty. It is the moment the show has been circling since its very first episode, and it lands with the full, unbearable weight of everything that came before it.
