It’s hard to believe that Tulsa King is already almost halfway through the first season. Fans have found themselves enjoying mafia capo Dwight Manfredi’s adventures in Oklahoma. In last week’s episode of the Taylor Sheridan series, Dwight made a shocking discovery about the family he works for, made enemies with a biker gang called black Mcadam, and said goodbye to his younger brother. Here’s what might happen in episode 5.

What happened in the ‘Tulsa King’ Episode 4?

Tulsa King manages to infuse both humor and heartbreak into each episode. In episode 4, Dwight enacts his plan to sell nitrous oxide, resulting in a conflict with the one percenter motorcycle gang Black Mcadam. When the gang steals nitrous oxide from Tyson and Bodhi, Dwight assembles a crew to get it back.

At the same time, Dwight finally confronts Armand, the man who has been trying to kill him throughout the season. He learns that Armand only attacked him because he was convinced Dwight was sent to kill him. Armand also drops the bombshell that Dwight’s boss Pete ordered a hit on him while he was in prison.

Finally, Dwight reconnects with his sister Joanne, who he hasn’t spoken to in decades. Joanne tells Dwight that their brother Joe is dying of lymphoma and gives him the chance to say goodbye over Facetime.

What is ‘Tulsa King’ Episode 5 about?

Tulsa King Episode 5 is titled “Token Joe.” Promo images for episode 5 suggest that Dwight will reunite with his family for Joe’s funeral. He appears with his sister Joanne, daughter Christina, and her husband, Emory. Dwight likely is heading out of Tulsa for the episode since most of his family seems to still live in New York.

Dwight went to prison for 25 years after taking the fall for a murder that Pete committed. Armand says that Pete believed Dwight would turn on him in prison, which is why he ordered the hit.
