Jackie Price is back in the game, but she has a lot of catching up to do. In Kill Jackie episode 5, things got personal for Jackie when the Demons attacked her childhood home, killing her father and kidnapping her daughter. Jackie manages to escape and get her hands on a ride and her secret money stash. With nothing to lose and her daughter’s life on the line, it’s now or never for Jackie to take down the Demons once and for all.

After escaping Friedrich, Jackie meets Zigor to pay him for his support against the Demons. However, he reveals he is now in it for personal reasons and not just for the money. He reveals to Jackie that he and Friedrich used to be best friends back in the day until Friedrich killed his wife. Zigor asserts he simply wants revenge like Jackie and will go to any lengths for that to happen.

Jackie Price continues her fight with the Demons

At the Seven Demons’ safe house, Tuukka stands guard while Sam’s screams echo in the background. Turns out, the Doc is experimenting on Sam by injecting him with the truth serum. He babbles on about his life but lets slip key information about Jackie in the process. The Doc isn’t one to shed blood for no reason; she simply wants to understand the human mind and play with it.

She manipulates Sam into revealing that he has been hiding the pager Jackie gave him in his rectum. Meanwhile, Gwen wakes up in a room with an ankle tag. She looks around and is excited to be in such a posh place. As she’s looking around, she catches Karenina, and Gwen works out that she’s tracking her mother.

Karenina gloats that despite Jackie being resourceful and clever, she’ll track her down in six hours. When Gwen inquires if she would be the one to kill her, Karenina complains that despite being an elite special forces killer, she has been reduced to a ‘tech person’ in the team.

On the other side of things, Jackie and Zigor are back in Spain. Jackie is planning a surprise attack, stating that the Demons will never see her coming because they think she is on the run. However, she will attack them where it hurts the most, like stealing the Doc’s dog from the dog walker. After taking the Doc’s dog, Jackie calls Karenina to show off and to threaten them not to hurt her daughter, or they’ll never see the dog again.

Somewhere in Spain, Friedrich is driving while we hear Karenina’s voice in the background, going straight to his voicemail. Karenina warns Friedrich that the Doc might do something stupid because Jackie Price has her dog, and wherever he is, he should get back to her ASAP.

Friedrich arrives at Markel’s villa. He positions himself uphill to keep an eye on his security detail for protection. He arrives at the villa’s gate, requesting a meeting with Markel and offering him a case of world-class cigars. Surprisingly, Markel agrees, intrigued to learn what the Demon has brought.

Friedrich tells Markel he knows that 60 tons of cocaine flow through his ports and into the city that has a street value of $10 billion. However, Markel only gets a tiny share for his services from the Mexican cartel; in other words, he’s selling himself and his business short. However, Markel points out that the Mexicans will slaughter his entire family if they know he was dealing directly.

But that’s where Friedrich thinks the Demons come in. The cartels wouldn’t dare touch Markel if they knew he had a Demon army behind him. Friedrich will offer Markel protection from the cartels, and in return, both of them will enjoy the profits. He mentions he’s tired of working for brainless billionaires and would love to venture into the business side of things.

However, Markel is wary of Friedrich’s claims because if he is as good as he says, then why hasn’t he taken care of Jackie Price? Friedrich admits he’s having his fun, and Jackie can run as much as she likes, but that wouldn’t change the end result for her. However, Markel isn’t convinced, and he questions Friedrich’s judgement; Friedrich responds by shooting all his guards with a paintball gun, proving how easy it is for him to take everyone out.

Of course, Markel is impressed, but he wants to know what exactly Friedrich expects from this partnership. The Demon admits that when they are partners, he would like to have Markel’s grand villa. From a distance, Markel’s son hears of the deal, and he doesn’t seem too thrilled about it.

Emotions get the better of everyone

Back at the safe house, Karenina gets hold of one of Jackie’s burner phones. She gloats to Gwen that she’s got Jackie, but when she dials the number, Jackie doesn’t pick up. Karenina dials again and again, but Jackie’s smart; she knows the moment she picks up the call, the demon witch will track her. Gwen makes fun of Karenina for overestimating herself.

However, when she goes back to her room, Gwen takes out a burner phone stashed in her shoe and dials the number from the keypad tone she heard on Karenina’s computer. She saves her mother’s number but wonders whether to call her.

Somewhere, while Jackie and Zigor wait for the Demons to make their move, Jackie receives a pager from Sam. He mocks her for leaving him behind but then gives her an address to pick him up. Unfortunately, on the other side of the pager, it’s not Sam but the Doc, setting a trap for Jackie. The Doc gets ready to leave, but Karenina warns her that Friedrich ordered them to stay with Gwen, but she doesn’t listen and leaves.

Karenina calls Friedrich to warn him that the Doc has gone rogue, but he orders her to stay put. He doesn’t want Karenina on a killing spree and orders her to keep an eye on both Gwen and Jackie and send Tuukka after Jackie instead. Behind the wall, Markel’s son overhears Friedrich’s conversation and warns him that he’ll never get the villa.

At the safe house, Gwen demands to know what Friedrich said about her, but Karenina gets angry and breaks her finger when Gwen mentions that she wants to become a Demon. Karenina is amused by her stubbornness but warns her not to get in her way again. Karenina then orders Tuukka to take Sam out and deal with him.

Tuukka drives Sam out into the forest to kill him, but he doesn’t. Instead, he asks Sam to call the number on the back of the card Zigor gave to his brother. Clearly, Tuukka wants revenge and to kill Zigor for slitting his brother’s throat. With no choice, Sam agrees to call Zigor and begs him to come get him at his location. Jackie confirms whether he was the one who sent her the message on the pager.

Sam has no idea what Jackie’s talking about, and it's then that she realizes that they set a trap for her. However, parked outside the hotel, Jackie has the itch to confront the Demon. Therefore, she orders Zigor to get Sam while she deals with the Doc herself. The two then head out their separate ways, and as Jackie opens the room’s door, a blue powder gets on her hand.

She quickly understands that the Doc laced the doorknob with some kind of toxin. Once inside, Jackie points the gun at the Doc, who informs her that if she doesn’t get the antidote in time, she’ll die a slow and agonizing death, and if she tries to wipe it off her, it won’t work because she has already taken the antidote.

Shockingly, the Doc is surprised to see that Jackie hasn’t killed her dog because if it were someone else, they would have already smothered the poor thing. What’s even more shocking, instead of finishing her off, the Doc demands Jackie sign a consent form that would allow her to study Jackie through a series of orgasms. The Doc finds Jackie unique and is intrigued to learn how her clever mind works.

Zigor arrives at Sam’s pin location in the forest but is ambushed by Tuukka. During their confrontation, Sam runs for his life, leaving Zigor behind. However, halfway through, he realizes he just betrayed one of his friends and decides to head back. Tuukka has Zigor tied to a tree and is beating him when Sam picks up a gun and shoots Tuukka dead from behind. Zigor is impressed and thankful, and the two run away at the first chance.

Karenina tells Gwen to tag along because she put a tracking device in the Doc’s bag and knows exactly where she is. This will be Gwen’s chance to exact revenge on her mother. Back at the hotel, Jackie is about to pass out, but she’s stubborn and doesn’t let her guard down. Still, she admits the Doc is different, and she hates working for men who don’t understand her.

The Doc seems attracted to Jackie and understands where she’s coming from. Jackie offers the Doc the chance to join her so she can enjoy real power and pleasures. However, before she can say anything further, Jackie passes out. When she comes to, she finds a note from the Doc saying, ‘to be continued,’ meaning she left her alive. When Jackie leaves the hotel, she finds Gwen standing outside; she’s happy, but the next moment Karenina shows up and tazes them both.
