Ruth is a middle-aged maple syrup farmer who turns to crime when her way of life becomes threatened. 

She teams up with a Bostonian mobster, played by Chris Diamantopoulos, and a French-Candian security guard played by Guillaume Cyr.

Together, they launch a plot to steal gallons of syrup in a scheme referencing the real-life syrup heist.

Ruth is played by Margo Martindale, who has appeared in BoJack Horseman, Dexter and The Americans. 

The Sticky is being executive produced by Jamie Lee Curtis, who has a guest role in the series.
