When she cries that she can’t stay clean forever, Cassie (Sydney Sweeney) offers her some trite advice, unaware that she’s putting herself in the crossfire: “You’ve just got to take it day by day.” Rue gives her a withering look, before dropping a bombshell about her secret relationship with Nate on the room that will ultimately get her out again. When she emerges ready to leave, she finds Suze Howard has called her mum and everyone is gathered, waiting for her, at the bottom of the stairs. After an excruciating conversation with Lexi and Cassie’s mum, she uses the bathroom and steals some pills and jewellery while she’s in there. She goes to Fezco’s ( Angus Cloud) house but gets no answers so limps over to Lexi’s (Maude Apatow) instead, where Cassie, Maddy and Kat are hanging out. When the car stops at a traffic light, she takes the chance to jump out, nearly getting run over in the process and runs off down an alley.ĭarkness falls and Rue is still on the lam – but now, she’s suffering from withdrawal. Once they’re in the car, though, she flips out at her mum’s use of the word “rehab”, bemoaning the low chances she has of ever getting clean for good. For now, Rules look to be well and truly over, with Rue telling Jules: “I have a lot of regrets in my life, but I gotta tell you, Jules, meeting you has got to be at the top of my fucking list.”Īfter Jules and Elliot sombrely leave the house, Rue calms down and agrees to go to the hospital with her mum and Gia. Rue stops dead in her tracks for a minute before racing through the house to confront her girlfriend and Elliot. Then, a voice from the living room – Jules’ voice – pipes up to reveal they’ve been flushed down the toilet. In a pause in the middle of the whirlwind, Rue apologises and asks her mum calmly where the case is, growing steadily angrier again when she receives no answer. It’s brutal to watch – particularly when she uses the power of her rage to break down Gia’s door by kicking and slamming it a few times. When the case is missing, she spirals into new lows of frantic despair, tearing her mum’s room apart to look for it and saying some truly nasty things about Leslie’s parenting and the death of her dad. Rue’s immediate reaction is to look for the suitcase she got from dealer Laurie with $10,000 worth of drugs in that she’s been steadily taking herself, instead of coming good on her proposal to sell it to her fellow students. But once Leslie (Nika King) spills who really outed her, things get really intense. We join the chaos with Rue unaware that her mum has found out from Jules, instead convinced that her sister Gia (Storm Reid) has ratted her out for smoking weed. After Elliot (Dominic Fike) revealed to Jules (Hunter Schafer) last week that Rue (Zendaya) is using again, the troubled addict’s girlfriend has gone straight to her mum to fill her in on her daughter’s relapse. That sound in that moment is all very intentional.The wheels have well and truly fallen off in East Highland this week. In that scene, it’s from the camera’s perspective, and Gia is sitting in her bedroom alone listening to her mom and sister arguing off camera, and then Zendaya comes bursting through the door. Wherever the camera goes, that’s where our sound is coming from. O’Malley says: “In this scene, the camera is the perspective. When Zendaya is kicking the door down, to create a sonic style that helped add realism to the sequence, he placed a mic right by her foot. Again, he didn’t want to have those added in sound: “Those sonic moments would help amplify Zendaya’s performance.” He says, “Everyone immediately agreed, and we put the wire on in a way that it wasn’t going to show on camera.” He adds, “I think her big concern was that she was kicking down a door and she was just afraid that it was going to hinder her ability to do her job.”įor the scene where Rue knocks over the shelf as she is looking for more drugs, O’Malley placed microphones off-camera, all around the room and on the floor, to capture every essence of the sound in that moment. O’Malley had to find a balance where he could both capture what he needed to make the scene work well, and at the same time allow the actress to do whatever she wanted. Levinson, O’Malley and Zendaya all sat down to discuss the consequences of not wearing a wire. On review, O’Malley could see the powerful impact of the scene was lost. “There was screaming down the hallway and it sounded like a tin can because chasing her with a boom was almost impossible.” But shooting the scene with a boom mic was not an option, says O’Malley. Initially, Zendaya didn’t wear a mic - nor did she want to.
