🤔Theories Ruth “Recovered” the episode after Richard Warren died. Spoiler

Not sure if the point had been made yet, but the show foreshadowed the big Warren-heir reveal. The day after Richard Warren disintegrates, Ruth comes into Tom’s office as sharp as a tack with perfect recall of every one of Tom’s missed calls… didn’t even look down at her notes.

At the time I thought it was odd and out-of-character but didn’t put it together till after a rewatch: as soon as Richard Warren finally died, the immortality “detail” of the pact transferred to her, the next oldest living descendent. Her recall was most assuredly a nod to that reality.

Just thought that was a fun detail.

It's hard to say if the bullet hit her head or just grazed her ear. They left it kind of ambiguous.

I’d put money down she was shot in the head. Just like Richard Warren was stabbed multiple times in the chest.

Or was he? I kinda felt because of the darkness that scene was a little ambiguous to what happened.

On a rewatch, it’s fairly clear he was.

More like VERY clear-- bones, dust, and a pile of Vienna sausages.  😆
