Now, we all know how strong-headed Wendy (Laura Linney) is. She can do anything and everything to take whatever she wants. Also, she won’t even think twice before wreaking havoc on people who wouldn’t want her to have what is rightfully hers. Episode 5 of Season 4 sees her to be at her very best and when you see her doing those things, you feel how “bada**” she is.

Now, we know that Ben is dead. But in Episode 4, Wendy played the emotional card and did a deal with Shaw Medical Solutions for setting up rehab centres. She struck a chord with everyone with the emotional story of her brother being an addict. As soon as she mentions that her brother is missing, Darlene (Lisa Emery) plays a trick and put up posters all around the Ozarks that “Ben is Missing”.
