Being the tough mother of the family, Smurf won't even care what happens to her sons and grandson while she's sitting behind bars.
As seen in the episode 13 promo, Smurf talks to her grandson Joshua (Finn Cole) through the glass and warns him about her adopted son Baz (Scott Speedman).
"Baz is trying to take advantage of you. Don't let him do that," Smurf tells Joshua.
Although Baz tried to ruin the family after Smurf was put behind bars, the threats that she was telling Joshua about might have no basis at all.
Later on, Smurf can be seen talking to someone else on the phone, saying, "They'll be coming for you." There is speculation that she is talking to Baz since she is already planning to turn Joshua against him.
Meanwhile, "Animal Kingdom," developed by Jonathan Lisco, was renewed for a third installment ahead of its season 2 finale, TVLine confirmed.
