After all, he is the one who shot Smurf dead. There is a lot to watch and understand in the fifth season of Animal Kingdom.

Storyline: 

The drama revolves around a teenage boy, Joshua. He moves in with his distant relatives after his mom’s death. Joshua’s relatives, the Codys, aren’t a simple family like the one Joshua lived in before. They are a criminal family with records of crimes since their predecessors. The head of the family is the matriarch, Janine Cody, referred to as Smurf. In the latest prequel, Smurf was shot dead by none other than Joshua. Well, this brings a lot of possible futures for the Codys and Joshua in the next season.
