And I agree.  They'll never get completely out . . . especially if they have to keep getting rid of Jonah's victims' bodies.

The reason they'll never get out is because they destroyed their children. Look at Jonah, it truly sickens me. I wanted a different ending. I knew the minute they had that dumb, lazy flashforward car accident, it would be lame. They used the accident to get Jonah to go back to his family. Ick. The only pain Wendy/Marty have going forward is off-screen where we can't see because the show is over. Of course, they seem perfectly cool with ruining their son. There aren't enough words to explain how disgusted I am. Wendy, so worried in S1 that Jonah would be one of those beautiful, strange kids that would shoot up a school. Well, what about this? Is this okay, bitch wolf?

Let me get all deep here. Jonah shooting the PI was the ultimate corruption of everything Marty and Wendy wanted, Marty in particular. What did Marty want? For the kids to be safe and uncorrupted and untainted by the criminal life. Up until this point - they could have moved back to Chicago and pretended the Ozark interlude was just that. Wendy in particular has a deep center of denial and Marty was willing to go along with it because the kids were safe and uncorrupted.... and now Marty is forced to see the truth.  That it was ALL FOR NOTHING and his family has gone down the shitter. 

 

This is a good interpretation, but my only problem with it is Wendy and Mary appear to be slightly smiling and encouraging Jonah to do it as if they don't care that their child has been horribly corrupted. It made me sick. I wonder if showrunners care anymore about the rewatchability of their shows? It felt to me like times when I'm reading a book that I hate the ending of so much I throw the book at the wall. I will not do the same w/my laptop.
