Out of options, Rue goes to Laurie’s house – her dealer to whom she owes a suitcase full of drugs or the cash equivalent. Admittedly we don’t get to see much – Maddie says something about getting violent before she chases Cassie up the stairs, but the camera stays on Rue as she uses the chaos to make her exit. ![]() Maybe it’s this that pushes Rue to ask: “How long have you been f***ing Nate Jacobs?” Either way, it’s hard to feel sorry for Cassie over what comes next. “Just take it one day at a time,” she says, a little condescendingly. Intervention: take two.Ĭassie thinks it appropriate to offer some advice with zero knowledge of the situation. When she can’t find any pills, she settles for some expensive-looking earrings but finds her mum waiting when she goes to leave. The gang’s all here and after exchanging brief hellos, she goes in search of what she came for. And so, she dashes out of her mum’s car like a bullet from a gun, straight into oncoming traffic. It takes all of five minutes for Rue to realise that actually no, she doesn’t want to go to rehab. That glimmer of vulnerability seems to break her walls down just enough for Rue to agree to go to rehab. ![]() “You left me when I needed you – you left me when I was at my lowest and someone who loves you wouldn’t do something like that,” Rue tells her now. One that we’ve been waiting for since Rue and Jules miraculously got back together in episode two as if Jules hadn’t left Rue at the train station at the end of season one. But there’s also a moment of catharsis here. She comes down on Jules hard, reeling off insults freely and aggressively. Suddenly, Rue’s cruelty has a new target. Things get worse when Jules unexpectedly chirps up from the kitchen to inform Rue that the drugs have been flushed down the loo. “You do not f***ing scare me,” Leslie tells Rue, with a tremor in her voice and tears in her eyes that belie what she’s saying. Zendaya’s ferocity calls to mind Evan Rachel Wood’s arresting portrayal as a troubled teenager in the 2003 film Thirteen. The scene plays out like a horror movie as Rue flings her body repeatedly against the door to Gia’s bedroom where her mum and sister are sheltering from her rage. She says the most hurtful things she can think of and manages to sidestep melodrama even when smashing a glass cabinet to the floor. She’s vicious like a small animal backed into a corner. As Leslie implores her daughter to get help, Rue shuttles rapidly between a billion emotions. In my overall review of Euphoria series two, I wrote that episode five pretty much guaranteed Zendaya another Emmy.
