Tracker episode 3, “Bloodlines,” airing Sunday, October 27 at 8/7c on CBS, sees Colter Shaw partnering with an unlikely ally: rival reward seeker Billie Matalon (Sofia Pernas), previously seen in season one episode “Lexington”. While the case itself involves a missing high school baseball star, the real intrigue lies in the relationship between Colter and Billie.
This reunion, hinted at in previous episodes, should explore the deeper connection between these two competitors. Stars Justin Hartley and Sofia Pernas (who are married in real life) have teased an emotional depth to Billie’s return, suggesting that their shared profession is just one facet of their intertwined history. “Bloodlines” is poised to reveal more on the backstory that fuels their rivalry and perhaps reveal a shared past that goes beyond the pursuit of rewards.
The episode follows the events of “Ontological Shock,” which saw Colter entangled in a government conspiracy involving UAPs (Unidentified Anomalous Phenomena) and a mysterious “black site.” His brother, Russell (Jensen Ackles), played a crucial role in his rescue, hinting at the troubled Shaw family dynamics and their father’s potential involvement in covert government operations. With these unresolved threads looming, “Bloodlines” presents a new case while potentially offering further clues to the larger Shaw family mystery.
Will Colter and Billie’s collaboration be successful? What secrets will be revealed about their shared past? And will this case intersect with the ongoing government conspiracy and the enigmatic circumstances surrounding Colter’s father?
