What happened in The Lowdown episode 5: A quick recap

Episode 5 of The Lowdown continues to unravel the threads of evil in an investigation that is connected to a series of murders and political corruption in Oklahoma. The episode begins with more deaths, all connected through a web of betrayal and revenge.

At the same time, the corrupt politician Donald Washberg remains a top suspect in Lee's eyes. As the episode continues, Lee is shocked to learn that another man in Tulsa, Allen, has been killed. The worst part? The killer is yet to be identified.

Lee learned this news from his daughter, Francis who skipped school, hoping to search for answers. This makes Lee concerned about his daughter, as his quests are mostly dangerous and he doesn't want Francis to get into trouble again.

Though she's smart, Lee cannot afford to let her daughter join him in solving every mystery and finding out the killer. The episode also features the return of an old friend, Wendell. First, Wendell suggests that Lee stop being selfish and focus on his daughter, but soon after he learns about his investigation, Wendell joins him.

Their reunion is comedic and heartfelt at the same time. Together, Lee and Wendell uncover clues about a shady land deal involving a company called White Elk LLC. Their discoveries reveal how money, politics, and power are tangled behind the killings.

But amid the investigation, Lee and Wendell face their own guilt and broken friendship. The episode ends with chaos: Lee is captured and brought before Donald Washberg at a violent gathering, hinting that the real danger is just beginning.
