Tracker’s Randy ‘Enlists Colter’s Services’ in Season 2, Episode 17

Colter Shaw is lending a helping hand to a member of his team on the upcoming season 2, episode 17, of Tracker titled “Memories.”

CBS released the official logline for the episode of the show set to air on Sunday, April 20.

“Randy enlists Colter’s services for his ex after her best friend goes missing following a night on the town in Reno,” the summary said.

Randy is Bobby’s cousin, who fans have gotten to know throughout season 2. He filled in for Bobby in episodes 10-15 of the season before Bobby made his return to season 2, episode 16, titled “The Mercy Seat.”

During the episode, the cousins got to work together for the first time, helping Colter navigate the snowy temperatures in Montana to solve a missing person’s case that took quite a horrific turn. While Bobby was in a bit of a glum mood during the episode, Randy’s upbeat personality definitely made up for his cousin’s lack of enthusiasm.

Chris Lee portrays Randy on the CBS show, and the next episode of the series will be all about him.

In photos released ahead of the episode, it looks like Randy and Colter are at a wedding chapel searching for answers. Additionally, it appears the duo will be going to a club to find out what happened to the missing woman who had been there the night before. It seems like the case will have something to do with a bachelorette trip or a night out gone wrong.

In the trailer, Randy is seen tackling a gunman to the ground while yelling Colter’s name after telling Colter that he can’t chase after the culprit on his own.

“I was so happy to see Bobby back in this past episode. I hope we get to see Bobby and Randy in every episode. They are awesome together! I love Tracker so much!” one person commented underneath the trailer, which was posted on YouTube on Sunday, April 13.

“Yay! Bobby is back! Hope so too! I loved them both,” someone replied to the comment.

“I’m ready for more of Tracker,” another viewer wrote, as another said, “Me too.”

Unfortunately, season 2, episode 16, faced some criticism from viewers who thought it was a little bit too bloody.

“This episode had too much of a Criminal Minds vibe and I stopped watching CM because it was just too freaking creepy and disturbing. The episode had no context,” one person commented on the show’s Instagram page. “Normally we see him getting a call about a missing person. This started with him already in the snow. What? If this is the new direction of the show, I’m out. And I love this show.”

“Show was way too disturbing don’t need nightmares sorry to say done with my fave show!” another said.

“The torture and psycho behavior went on way too long in this episode!! We’re not watching an R rated nutjob!! Not happy with this episode,” another said.

“The last 3 episodes have been so dark. Not loving it. Did they get new writers or something??” someone said, to which another person responded, “This episode was my least favorite so far, and I’ve watched them all.”
