As the episode begins, Red (Alex Paxton-Beesley) remembers arriving in town with Kevin (Jonathan Keltz). She recalls having a fight with her brother. She tells John (Billy Campbell) about being chased through the woods. She cannot remember who was chasing her, but she does mention the vehicle.

He tells her about finding Wombat’s head and fleeing. John tells Lise that the shooter knows Red is alive and he is looking for her. He insists that they need to find Kevin. Meanwhile, Lasalle speaks with the bikers.
He tells that someone called Northwind is after them. He tells his comrades to out there and collect information about the group. Meanwhile, John and Lise take Red to a halfway house of sorts. Toof (Brock Morgan) finds Kevin passed out on the ground. He picks him up and promises to cover for him with the others. John returns home and finds that Catherine has left her pills behind. He calls her, but only gets the voice mail. Cardinal gives his team a rundown of the evidence. McLeod (James Downing) is put in charge of tracking down the vehicle. Lise and John take Red back into the forest. She remembers something when she enters the cave. She recalls being knocked to the ground and watching someone leave her. John tries to get in touch with Catherine again, but doesn’t get through.

He tells the man that the Northern Raiders no longer run the town. Leon interrupts and drags Toof away. Jordan and Rachel have fun at the beach. Musgrave thanks Lise for the tip, but she knows nothing about it. Cardinal calls her and tells her about the spiritual practice, which is called Palo Mayombe. Lise asks if John got in touch with his wife. He admits he hasn’t.
Lise gets a call from Commanda (Glen Gould). She rushes to the hospital and learns that Rachel has overdosed. She speaks with Jordan. The boy explains that Rachel bought heroin from a guy with a crazy tooth at the pub. Leon gets Kevin up and forces him to drive them to the movies. Toof tells the others that it is his birthday tomorrow. Leon instructs Kevin to drive into the middle of nowhere. Then, Kevin and Toof get out. Leon shoots him in the head. Since he is using the antique gun, it takes several shots. He still doesn’t die. Leon finishes the job with a golf club. Later, Leon tells Ray that he killed Toof because he was talking too much. Kevin is forced to thank Leon for preventing Toof from causing trouble. Commanda takes Jordan home. He tries to smooth things over with his mother.

He tries to talk her down. However, Catherine isn’t suicidal. She is just snapping pictures. Her students listen as Catherine explains her doctor gave her new pills. She tells John to just go home.
Cardinal Review
This episode of Cardinal was very good. It was clear Toof or Kevin was going to get killed at some point. I suppose it had to be Toof. While he was loyal to the group, he also liked to talk too much. That led to his death. And of course, Leon used the opportunity to win some points from Ray. At this point, it is clear that Leon shot Red and Ray was involved somehow. Our detectives just haven’t pieced it all together yet. It will only be a matter of time before they do. The episode scores a solid 8 out of 10. Catch up with previous recaps of Cardinal right now!
