He renounces his throne and abandons his kingdom for Los Angeles, where he receives his kicks helping LAPD detective Chloe Decker (Lauren German). In the fifth season, the stakes are higher than ever. Secrets will be revealed, beloved characters will die, and we will finally get an answer to the question, “Will they or won’t they?”
