Nicky (Molly Gordon) and J (Finn Cole) will have a stronger bond in episode 7 of "Animal Kingdom" season 2, triggered by their recent encounter with Javi (Alex Meraz). Meanwhile, Smurf (Ellen Barkin) pushes J to get revenge on Javi.
Previously on "Animal Kingdom" season 2, Javi invaded Smurf's home and found J and Nikki having a special moment. J tried to get his gun but Javi's men immediately held him captive and started torturing him to make him spill information about Smurf's stash of money.
While Javi's men were searching for the money, they found Nikki and decided to kidnap her. Later on, Nikki called Smurf asking to be picked up in a location that happened to be the place where Smurf buried Javi's father.
