We’d see him in the bar, grabbing his washed cash, and creating a world of hell for Beth, but we never knew much about him.īy adding this layer, we may actually get to explore Rio’s role in everything – how’d he get into it, what’s his motivation, why does he operate the way he does.īeth’s going right to the source, which proves that eliminating Rio actually wouldn’t solve any of her problems.Īt one point, I truly thought that when Mick drove Beth to do her “job,” the hitman would be alive and waiting for Beth. Rio has been sorely underutilized for almost two seasons and it seemed like the writers were just keeping him around because of his popularity with audiences. Personally, I find this to be an exciting development. There’s a chain of command here that forces Rio to do the things that he does or else it’s his head on the line.

When she met up with him, her two FBI buds were right there for the whole conversation and she realized that Rio also has a boss that he answers to. Instead, Beth used this new gig Rio entrusted her with to work alongside the FBI. She even tried the “I’m the banker, bitch,” which is 100% me playing Monopoly.īut that’s also when she realized how twisted the job was.īeth realized that she didn’t actually have it in her to do anything about it if someone didn’t pay up like the girl working for her sick mom who claimed she didn’t “have the money.” She enjoyed wielding all the power that came with the gig as evidence by her growing confidence with every single person she visited. After all, you don’t kill the banker (except when you do and replace them with another banker…). However, she ended up enjoying being the banker and felt like it made her important and necessary to the operation. She once again had to “prove” her allegiance to him in order to stay alive and keep her friends alive.

On one hand, she had absolutely no choice after Rio found the tracker and figured that she was either working with the FBI or that they were onto him. Beth became the banker on Good Girls Season 4 Episode 5.
