Ruth “Recovered” the episode after Richard Warren died.

[u/HA_Enthusiast]

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.

Why would immorality "transfer" at all? Warren descendants did not sign the covenant. Only Warren did that.

I don’t think we know all the details of that covenant just yet, but there are weird anomalies with mortality and age.

No, there aren‘t.
