Ruby wanted to be fair, to let him know the person she had been. She's not that person anymore, or at least she tries not to be. She wasn't that person when she met Sam; she was fighting to be a better person, for the chance to be a better person, and he has helped her become one. He makes her more human. Astaroth took the ring because she suspected it would bother both Sam and Ruby. They can pry it from her cold, dead hands. She smirks in response to Sam's comeback. One of them needs their eyes checked and she's positive it's not her. Of course, Chuck also gave her some info on Eileen that Astaroth isn't sharing.
No one should have to make a demon deal, and ye there are plenty of new demons that suggest otherwise. That being said, if Ruby were going to make another deal, she thinks Sam is a good reason for one.
The fire is a good distraction, though Ruby is worried about being caught in it. She's concerned about Sam and the smoke inhalation as well. However, she trusts that Sam can take care of himself and concentrates on breaking the manacles around her wrists. She hears Astaroth scream in frustration and it makes Ruby smile a little. She tugs hard on the manacle that seems weakest and gets one hand free before she starts working on the other. She tries not to yell out again, to distract Sam. She just steadily works on the manacle with her power and brute force to pull her hand out. Her left hand is going to be a mess: bruised, swollen, scraped, and possibly fractured, but it doesn't matter because she's finally free. She drops to the ground, knees giving out on her. She's been on tiptoe or dangling for over 48 hours.
Ruby grabs onto Sam when he comes to gather her up. "We need to get the knife from her." She's keeping an eye on the two demons that are trying to put the fire out. They seem torn between wanting to help Astaroth and trying to grab them. "Once we kill her, we need to get out of here."
