Ep 9. Incentive

In Good Girls season 3 episode 9 titled "Incentive," the women of the show - Beth, Annie, and Ruby - are all grappling with their own personal dilemmas. Beth is still trying to navigate the complicated world of being a criminal while maintaining the facade of a suburban mom. This becomes even more difficult when her ex-husband Dean uncovers her secret and threatens to turn her in. Annie, meanwhile, is dealing with her own set of problems. She's trying to figure out how to be a good mom to her son while also dealing with the fact that her ex-husband is dating her therapist. And Ruby is struggling to keep her marriage together while also dealing with the fact that her daughter's medical bills are piling up.

To make matters worse, the women find themselves in a difficult situation when they realize that their business partner, Rio, is still alive. When they thought they had killed him, they were able to breathe a sigh of relief and move on from their lives of crime. But now that Rio is back, they are forced to confront their previous actions and figure out how to deal with his reappearance.

In order to keep Rio from coming after them, the women decide to try and find a way to make him happy. They come up with a plan to use their counterfeit money to buy a strip club that Rio has been eyeing. If they can make him the owner of the club, they hope that he will be satisfied and leave them alone.

The plan seems to be going well at first. The women are able to successfully purchase the strip club and hand it over to Rio. But things quickly start to unravel when they realize that there is a catch - Rio insists that they continue to work for him. He wants them to continue their life of crime and help him with his own criminal endeavors.

The women are left with a difficult decision. They don't want to continue being criminals, but they also don't want to put themselves and their families in danger by crossing Rio. As they try to figure out what to do, they also have to deal with the fallout from their decision to buy a strip club. The community is outraged and they are facing backlash from their friends and neighbors.

Ultimately, the women realize that they need to take a stand. They can't keep running from their problems and they can't keep living a double life. They decide to confront Rio and tell him that they are done with his criminal activities. The episode ends with a tense standoff as the women face off against Rio, unsure of what the future holds for them.
