Here are 11 of the biggest ones.

Major spoilers to follow forOzarkseason four, part one.

.Will Ruth kill Javi?

Shes going to get her vengeance.

Shes going to take a stab at kill Javi.

Will someone beat her to it?

Or might she face a bigger problem …

.Will the FBI protect Javi, and vice versa?

Its like giving a sociopath a license to kill.

(When Whitey Bulger had a similar deal going on, hebecame even more vicious.)

Javi was dangerous enough when he was a rogue agent in his uncles regime.

Now that hes an empowered king?

.Will the Byrdes make it back to Chicago?

Will they ever actually escape the quicksand of the Ozarks?

Is Jonah going to leave Ruth and her empire behind that easily?

And what of Charlotte talking about the Pacific Northwest?

Is it possible that the show ends withonlyMarty back in Chicago?

.Will Jonah side with Ruth or Wendy?

At the same time, Jonah grew closer to Ruth as he worked for her growing empire.

.Have we seen the last of Omar?

However, has his narrative really run its course?

.Will Charlotte stay by her mothers side?

She probably knew Marty would take Jonahs side and needed another ally around the dinner table.

Will it work, or will Charlotte see through this behavior?

.What kind of trouble will Mel cause with Maya?

.Is Clare Shaw indebted to the cartel forever?

What role will Clare play in the endgame?

.Will the truth come out about Ben?

Ben was nearly as much of a presence in this half-season as when he was alive.

His death forever changed the dynamics between Ruth and the Byrdes and between Jonah and Wendy.

An accessory to murder doesnt often have a go at further the investigationinto that murder.

How badly will all of this backfire on Wendy?

Will the truth come out?

Or will Mels theory about Ben killing Helen gain steam?

.Will the Emmys finally recognizeOzark(beyond Julia Garner)?

Theyve been pretty nice toOzarkso far, awarding Jason Bateman once for directing and Julia Garner twice for acting.

Jon Hamm didnt win his acting Emmy until the final season ofMad Men.

It feels very possible the same thing happens to Bateman here.

.Whos going to make it out alive?

This is the big one.Ozarkhas never shied away from killing major characters.

Everyone else is on watch.

Could one of the Byrdes end up never making it out of the Ozarks?

And who do wewantto see make it out?

Has Wendy earned a happy ending after all the death shes caused?

Its open for debate.

Well know after one more half-season.

And were all counting the days.
