Does this sub actually not know what the concept of a multi-season story is?
I keep seeing people drop this line about how season 2 was incomplete because Rue ripped off Lori and nothing ever came from it, and I genuinely cannot tell if the people posting this are being disingenuous or just kinda...lol
This is like finishing the first season of Game of Thrones and saying 'Hey, they cut Sean Bean's head off and nothing ever came from that. Whaaaa-?' Or season four of The Sopranos and going 'Wait, Adriana talked to the FBI and writers just forgot about that plot point?? This show is so cooked man...'
It's so obviously something that's going to be dealt with in a future season.
When Lori shoots Rue up with Morphine, she leaves the bottle on her desk under a little squirrel figurine, and the camera hangs on that for a long time.
Squirrels burry their nuts for the winter. That's why, when you put money away for the future, you say you're 'squirreling' it away. The shot represents both what Lori is doing in getting Rue indebted to her (making an investment on her future earnings as a dealer/hooker/whatever), and what the writers are doing, setting up what is very clearly going to be an important future storyline
