He was involved in some bad stuff, and while he's all along been good at keeping afloat and talking his way out of some messy situations, unlike some others in his orbit, his ambition has never been for anything other than to just find an easy off-ramp from this life. ![]() Granted, his relationships with many characters in the show-including Wendy, Charlotte, Jonah, Ruth, Omar, Javi, and Maya-have deeply evolved, but he's still at his core the same guy he was when this all started: a decent guy. Our leading man is kind of a unique character in the space of shows like Ozark: he has stayed pretty consistent with where he was when he started the series. And the Byrdes again seemed to be in the clear. Still, Marty and Wendy's scheming got them back in good graces the FBI decided to make the same deal with Navarro's loose-cannon nephew and successor, Javi. But then Maya Miller arrested Navarro, going rogue and creating the first bump in the road. While Omar Navarro's deal with the FBI didn't turn out exactly how everyone planned, it created an offramp for Marty and Wendy to finally get their family out for good. The story seemed to be at a fairly logical place to start winding down. A lot of shit went down, and now we'll have to wait just a little bit longer to see how it all winds up playing out. But Season 4, Part 1 kept the tension and stakes high for the entirety of its 7 episode run. We've long known that the Byrde family was in deep, deep trouble-being in a close relationship with the leader of a mass-murdering drug cartel will probably have that effect. And, man, is there a lot to think about, and probably even more to be nervous about as we move towards Part 2 of Season 4. That's right- Ozark's final season, which has been split into two parts, has now concluded its first part. We're at the end of the beginning of the end. Do not read on unless if you have already watched or don't mind being spoiled. The following story contains giant, enormous, huge spoilers for Ozark Season 4, Part 1. ![]()
