Fans have waited more than two months for Tracker Season 2 to continue. The hit CBS show went on its winter break, but the wait is finally over. On February 16, Colter Shaw, played by Justin Hartley, comes back to the screen for the mid-season premiere titled The Disciple.
This season, Colter has continued to solve a missing person’s case in each episode. At the same time, he struggles with an unresolved mystery from his past. A cold case that has haunted him for years is still unsolved, and it drives him forward. Along the way, he reunites with familiar characters, meets new allies, and even gets help from a loyal dog.
If you need to refresh your memory before watching the next episodes, here are some key moments from the first eight episodes of Tracker Season 2.
Colter Shaw’s Search for Answers
In the first episode of Season 2, Colter faces a mystery that has troubled him for ten years. Gina Picket disappeared from a mall parking lot where she worked. Ever since then, Colter has been determined to uncover the truth.
This case is very personal for him. Each year on the anniversary of Gina’s disappearance, Colter visits a man named Frank, played by Ryan Dorsey. Colter believes Frank was involved in whatever happened to Gina. The mystery fuels Colter’s determination and keeps him searching for answers.
Colter also visits Gina’s sister, Camille Picket, played by Floriana Lima. Over the years, Camille and Colter have grown close. Solving Gina’s case is not just about finding the truth—it’s about his bond with Camille. She has carried the pain of losing her sister for years, just as Colter has carried the burden of not knowing the truth.
Colter usually does not make promises to the families who hire him. However, he makes an exception for Camille. This shows how much he cares for her. Their shared pain brings them together for a short time, but by the mid-season finale, Camille tells Colter she is ready to move on. She wants to let go of Gina’s case and her connection with Colter.
Even though Gina’s case remains a mystery, Tracker sticks to its original format. Colter continues to take on new cases while also working on his personal mission. Throughout these investigations, he works with both old allies and new characters, making every episode exciting.
Colter Works with Old and New Allies
Throughout Season 2, Colter has reconnected with familiar faces. One of the most important is his brother, Russell Shaw, played by Jensen Ackles. Russell helped Colter with a case in Episode 2.
Although he has not returned since then, he is expected to appear again later in the season. When he does, more family secrets will come to light. Hartley and Ackles have strong chemistry on screen, making their scenes enjoyable to watch.
Colter also crosses paths with his old rival, Billie, played by Sofie Pernas. This season, Billie brings him a case, forcing them to work together. At first, Colter does not trust her motives. However, Billie tells him the missing person is a high school pitcher from her hometown.
She left that place under difficult circumstances, and this case is personal for her. Colter sees a different side of Billie, which softens their rivalry. This might open the door for more collaborations between them in the future.
Colter’s team remains an important part of his success. Reenie, played by Fiona Rene, has been by his side since Season 1. There was some romantic tension between them, but this season proves that they are better as friends.
Reenie is now dating a lawyer from her firm, Elliot, played by Michael Rady. Colter meets Elliot while working on a case at a wellness retreat. He teases Reenie about her relationship, but he also shows that he supports her happiness.
As the season progresses, Colter forms another key alliance. Police detective Keaton, played by Brent Sexton, offers to help him investigate Gina’s case. This marks the start of an important partnership that could bring Colter closer to the truth.
A Shocking Cliffhanger Leaves Fans Wanting More
The mid-season finale ends with a huge revelation. After solving the main case of the episode, Colter receives a call from Keaton. Keaton tells him there is a major development in Gina’s case. Colter rushes to an address where Keaton has a suspect named Alex, played by Johnny Rey Diaz, tied to a chair.
Alex was once associated with Frank, the man Colter has suspected for years. Now, Alex has new information about Gina’s disappearance. He tells Colter that he and Frank were involved in dangerous activities. A mysterious figure known as “Teacher” controlled them. This person forced them to do terrible things, including luring Gina to a place called “The Farm.”
The episode ends with this intense moment, leaving viewers with many questions. Who is “Teacher”? What is “The Farm”? Will Colter tell Camille about this new lead, even though she wants to move on? One thing is clear—Colter and Keaton are getting close to uncovering the truth.
What to Expect in the Rest of Season 2
The trailer for the upcoming episodes promises exciting developments. Colter will continue his search for the truth about Gina’s disappearance while also solving new missing person cases. The rest of the season will introduce new guest stars, thrilling action scenes, and fresh mysteries.
The first eight episodes have already drawn in millions of viewers. If the second half of the season is just as exciting, Tracker could break records for CBS. Fans are eager to see how Colter’s story unfolds and whether he finally finds the answers he has been searching for.
Colter Shaw’s journey in Tracker Season 2 continues to deliver gripping mysteries, intense action, and emotional moments. As he hunts for the truth about Gina’s disappearance, new allies and shocking revelations push him forward. With suspense building, the upcoming episodes promise exciting twists, making this season a must-watch for fans.
