Danger! Danger!
Angela, Mia, and Frankie may have different goals in mind, but they're all about to cause Smurf some major headaches.
It's a problem Smurf doesn't need at the moment especially when she might have a serious medical issue which caused her to pass out at the end of Animal Kingdom Season 4 Episode 2.
Whatever is wrong with Smurf, you can be sure Angela will take full advantage of every moment she spends with Pope.
And considering Pope is at a dangerously vulnerable point in his life, it could spell doom for the Cody family.
Angela seems like another Frankie, only a little more dirty.
It makes sense she would visit the Cody home after not being able to find Julia, but for her to defy Smurf's orders to stay away shows that her intentions are anything but honorable.
