Meanwhile, it is evident that a new threat is slowly and steadily inching toward the Codys. Before talking about what will happen in the second episode, let’s take a look at how The Cody Boys took care of the mounting problem.
‘Animal Kingdom’ Season 5 Episode 1 recap
The Codys find a few bags of gold worth millions belonging to Pope’s cousins. Pope takes the decision to give the gold back to his cousins. He and Craig go to a shop to talk about the gold. However, things don’t go as planned as Jen and Odin’s sons and cousins have already reached the place and taken some vital information about Smurf.
As they got inside the shop, they find out that Smurf owned a house that she never told them about. Pope’s cousins are already there and find out about all the fake passports held by Smurf. Meanwhile, we keep on getting flashbacks of a younger Smurf (Leila George) trying to lead a good life with her children, Andrew and Julia.
As the episode draws closer to a conclusion, Deran and Craig get to know about their wills and they read it. However, they are shocked to know about a woman named Pamela Johnson and how she is going to get almost everything of what Smurf owned. Suddenly, the power goes off and Pope’s cousins have returned with advanced weaponry to kill them. A fight takes place and The Cody Boys manage to outclass their enemies.
In the end, Pope says that he’ll take care of the bodies as one of the members is still alive. He takes the bodies and the only living cousin to a secluded place. Pope tries to kill him, but could not because he knew only his mother was capable of making him do things like these.
