The synopsis of Tracker season 2's midseason premiere promises a new lead in Colter's white whale case, which refers to the unsolved disappearance of Gina Picket. Season 2's premiere establishes Colter Shaw's (Justin Hartley) connection to Gina's sister Camille (Floriana Lima), with Gina being the first person that Colter has failed to track down. The case had been in the background until Colter teamed up with a retired detective, Keaton (Brent Sexton), to catch a serial killer. In return for his help, Keaton offered to take a fresh look into the case, leading him to interrogate a former associate of Frank Whales.
TVLine shares the synopsis of the upcoming Tracker mid-season premiere, which will see some new developments in the case. The upcoming episode, titled "The Disciple," is scheduled to arrive on Sunday, February 16 at 8 p.m. on CBS and one day after on Paramount+. Colter teams up with Keaton again on "a new lead." Check out the full synopsis below:
“The Disciple” – A new lead in Colter’s white whale case, the disappearance of Gina Picket, brings him and retired cop Keaton (guest star Brent Sexton) back together to track down a serial killer.
What This Means For Tracker Season 2
Gina Might Already Be Dead
The white whale case is the sole long-running story arc in season 2, with all other missing person cases limited to one episode. Gina went missing 10 years ago, and Colter suspected that Frank Whales was involved. In the Tracker season 2 midseason finale, Keaton tied up Whales' associate, Alex, in a basement to get more information. Alex revealed that an individual being referred to as "Teacher" wanted Gina and had Whales lure her to him.
It's still unknown whether Gina is dead or alive, but Colter isn't going to stop until he gets to the bottom of the truth. The synopsis of the upcoming Tracker episode will continue the hunt, indicating that Gina's disappearance might be connected to a serial killer. This just might bring about disappointing news about Gina's fate, assuming the tip about the killer isn't just a red herring.
Our Take On Colter's White Whale Case On Tracker
It's Only The Beginning
It seems that fans will finally see some action regarding Colter's white whale case, but the mystery likely won't be fully resolved in the upcoming episode. There are a total of 22 episodes in Tracker season 2. With season 1's overarching narrative about Colter's father taking the entire season to explore, the upcoming episode 9 is likely only the beginning. While there will be some answers about Gina's disappearance, it's likely to be another piece of the puzzle in a much more complicated story.
Keaton and Colter's reteam, on the other hand, is one of the things to look forward to in the rest of Tracker season 2. The last time the two were together, they caught a serial killer that Keaton had spent years obsessing over. Colter brought a new perspective to the case and helped Keaton put an end to the killings once and for all. It seems that Keaton is able to do the same in Gina's case, though his method is a little unconventional. With Keaton bringing this new lead forward, it's likely that Tracker will show more of the duo in the next batch of episodes.
