Came here since I know @Buzzetta would be all over this season. And while it is FREAKEN INTENSE there is a bit that just flies over my head. I get the cartel dynamics, I get the FBI deal, I get the laundering schemes, I get how Ruth has all the land and money she now has. But what I don't get is the whole Wendy storyline. As far as I can tell, the Byrdes don't actually have much money. Their stake in the casino and all they own is not really theirs, it's all the cartel's. So how in the world can wendy "own" the midwest? How is she powerful enough to do anything? She pays for this expensive lawyer, she can give 2 million in cash to her dad, but this isn't hers right? I gotta say that bit really confuses me.
