You don't win until I win!
Charlotte (Sofia Hublitz) steps up to show her malevolence and family contribution in the face of Jonah's defection. Ruth (Julia Garner) is back to her determined pocket-rocket best, taking grip and creating change, irrespective of others' objections.
A fine episode with the Byrdes' margins of safety ebbing and flowing, but ultimately shrinking as they juggle so many plates.

The episodes are getting better, and man the acting is so well done.
The cast of Ozark continues to remain at the forefront of the show. Many characters make several moves throughout this episode and it's a welcoming part of the story. In particular, the relationship between Wendy and Jonah is explored more as they attempt to grapple with Ben's death. Further, Wendy seems to be taking more to her motherly instincts as well and wants to help Jonah and Charlotte cope, even attempting to relate to Maya later on in the episode. However, Jonah doesn't really take and then all hell breaks lose at their home, prompting him to move his "operations" elsewhere. The cinematography also remains a standout of the show. That element is the best part of this episode, as much doesn't really happen aside from the beginning of the episode, followed by some more subplots from Season Three, however the last twenty or so minutes pick back up where the entertainment continues. Bateman brings more of his deadpan humor to a few lines as well. Linney, however, is a standout of "City on the Make" and commands her scenes. Further, the way the writing continues to interweave Maya between the Byrde family and their dilemmas is exceptional and brings a different element to the screen in terms of a cop esque figure within the story. The editing is great as well and the beginning of the episode features some nice parallel cutting that really works. While the arms shipment is found, Wendy, Charlotte and Marty enjoy a meal at a fancy restaurant with Javi. It's a weird meal with Javi flirting with Charlotte and showing her how to eat oysters; Wendy and Marty feel uncomfortable. And then, Javi gets a call during dinner about the shipment that the FBI stopped, but he keeps his cool, returns to the table, and acts normal. He toasts business. He is undoubtedly a complex character to read, which must be frustrating for the Byrde family. Otherwise, "City on the Make" is another great episode of Ozark, and this final season continues to prove its potential of topping Season Three in the best way possible.

NOT SINCE BREAKING BAD AS A SHOW PUCKERED BUTTHOLES QUITE LIKE THIS
I mean what else can I say? I'm only 3 episodes in and it's really impressive how they've managed to seamlessly transition from the goings on in season 3 to this season all while simultaneously setting up and launching this seasons storyline. For a show like this to be in it's 4th season and still manage to remain unpredictable is very impressive. Most shows can't pull this off throughout it's entire run. Season 4 is so far as good as season 3, actually the intensity has kicked off to a much harder and quicker start than any season had, since the first.

Don't mess with Charlotte
Amazing episode and fun to watch Charlotte's character arc, and how she has taken a hard right turn straight into the family business. She meets with Erin in Chicago to tell her face-to-face that Mommie Dearest is dead. When Erin alludes that she might not keep quiet Charlette responds with the episode's best line, "Just because we didn't have anything to do with your mom, doesn't mean we're not capable if we don't have any other choice."

Not as good as people make it out to be
Ozark
The turgid mess continues
What people still like about this tedious slog I've no idea. Immensely unlikable characters, boring dialogue, stupid tense music for scenes that have not one iota of tenseness. Seasons 1 and 2 were great but the last 2 seasons have been utter trash. Just suffering till the end which can't come fast enough.
