As Amish Mafia prepares to premiere its third season, spoilers have emerged which detail some of what fans can expect in the premiere episode.

Battle Between Merlin and Levi Intensifies In Season 3 As Esther Addresses "Double Life?"

In an exclusive with The Wrap, it was revealed that in his efforts to win back control over the Ohio Amish community, Merlin will enlist a potentially dangerous new foot soldier in Ruck Davey-an Amish man who lives more on the outskirts of the community and is considered strange because of his demeanor and attire.

In a clip introducing him, Esther explains that in Dutch, Ruck means dress, something Ruck the man literally wears. Though he doesn't wear the clothing as an ironic statement considering his name, he does wear it because he's strictly devout to Jesus Christ, and dresses in such a manner to evoke his spirit.

Season 3 To Be The Show's Last?

Merlin will enlist his help to take down Wayne and regain control over the Ohio community, mainly because Ruck thinks he is about to get shunned by the community further than he already has been since an incident some time ago that involved his beating down with a bible for chewing gum during church.

His being shunned makes him a perfect soldier for Merlin to enlist as his first soldier.

"God gave me a path and it begins with Ruck," Merlin said. "The Bishop owes me and I'm going to trade a favor for a favor because down the road, I see Ruck coming in very handy."

Meanwhile, it has been reported that questions surrounding the season 2 finale, and Caleb's fate specifically, will be answered. Though he appeared to be receiving a beating at the end of the second season, he appears again in the season 3 premiere episode, appearing fairly unscathed physically, though it will take time for him to regain Lebanon Levi's trust.

 Amish Mafia premieres Tuesday, Feb. 25 at 9 p.m. on Discovery.
