DUBLIN, IRELAND: Episode 5 of 'Bodkin', the latest thriller on Netflix, slows down the fast pace of the series as Gilbert Power (Will Forte), Emmy (Robyn Cara), and Dove (Siobhán Cullen) take on their individual paths to crack the case.

Fortunately, the trio discovers what actually happened to Malachy O'Connor while they also dig for the identity of the woman whose decayed body was found in Sergeant Power's dumped car.

Suspense continues as they now pursue the mystery around Fiona Doyle, chasing new leads and clues.

In 'Bodkin' Episode 5, Gilbert learns that the body found in the Sergeant's car isn't of Fiona's.

Emmy secretly investigates the skeleton and learns that the woman who died was Greta, a New Age Traveller girl.

Simultaneously, Dove investigates the Sergeant who finally comes clean about his involvement in the unsolved case.

He reveals that on the night of the incident, Malachy visited him asking for help as he feared for his life from the McArdle brothers. Upon his request, Sergeant went out to find Fiona, only to return without any information of her whereabouts.

Upon his arrival, he saw that his son, Teddy Power, had killed Malachy after a fight over Fiona.

Teddy confessed to his crimes while mentioning that he knows nothing about Fiona's disappearance.

In the final moments of the episode, as the trio visits Maeve's (Kerri McLean) van, they stumble upon the image of an X-ray with Fiona's name on it.

They realize that Fiona was pregnant when she disappeared.

The mystery around Fiona's disappearance continues in Episode 6. Unlike Malachy, Fiona's dead body hasn't been found yet. The McArdles stated that they are not involved in her disappearance. This leaves Seamus and viewers wondering if she is still alive.

In the next episode, we expect the mystery to be further unpeeled, setting the stage for an epic finale.

'Bodkin' is available to stream on Netflix
