Bishop is portrayed as a silent, stealthy, highly observant employee loyal to Alamo, who takes Rue under his wing to protect her from Laurie’s drug smuggling. Bishop quickly becomes dubious of Rue, even before she is forced to become an informant for the DEA. Fans suspect Bishop may be a “rat,” possibly an undercover cop or someone positioned to expose Alamo’s operations. His analytical and social skills could help him use Rue to infiltrate Laurie’s circle and enable police interception of a future delivery.

"Given how much analytical and social skills he's displayed in the following episodes, he may have realized that Rue could be the key to infiltrating Laurie's circle, leading the cops to intercept her next delivery in a later episode. In addition, other fans have noticed that Bishop hasn't really enjoyed his killings, despite his claims to the contrary. (Seriously, stop it with the animal deaths.)"
"However, the biggest red flag was Bishop threatening Rue's safety by indicating that he's been in contact with her mother, Leslie, and hinting he's aware that the "Mom" contact on her phone is actually her line to the DEA officers. Sure, he might give this information to Alamo when needed, but what if the reason he k"
