Episode 5 of Sky Rojo commences with a tense dialogue between Coral and Gina, pondering over Wendy's predicament. Coral likens their fear to a scorching potato, an analogy so potent that it prompts her to abruptly reverse the car, determined to return.
Meanwhile, Wendy sprints into an abandoned warehouse, her pursuers, Moises and Christian, hot on her heels. Amidst the desolate labyrinth, a subtle Easter egg emerges—a Salvador Dali puppet, a surreal touch that adds to the eerie, confined atmosphere as the camera sweeps upwards.
Suddenly, the warehouse's owner materializes, swiftly training his gun on the two men. The resounding warning shot echoes, and it's this that alerts Coral and Gina to Wendy's whereabouts, spurring them into action.
Wendy, seizing the moment, snatches the handgun and cleverly impersonates police officers on the phone, deceiving her chasers and escalating the drama. She bursts out of the warehouse, discarding the gun and unleashing a flurry of punches on Coral, venting her frustration for being abandoned. However, this outburst soon gives way to forgiveness, and the trio reconciles, united once more.
With a renewed sense of purpose, Coral strides in, gun drawn, and confronts Moises, her demand for the code tinged with threats against their shared mother. Surprisingly, it's Christian who ultimately relents, surrendering the code.
Their own vehicle marooned in mud, the girls commandeer Moises and Christian's stolen ride, making a swift escape. During the ride, Coral confides, revealing that her clubbing escapades were a calculated disguise, a result of a past life where she took a life. This heartfelt confession binds the girls even closer as they clasp hands, ready to embark on the next leg of their odyssey together.
