This Sunday, “Tracker” throws a curveball at its typically stoic protagonist, Colter Shaw. In “Nightingale,” Colter’s pursuit of a missing person takes an unexpected turn when his target proves to be more than just a damsel in distress. This time, the quarry is a survivalist, mirroring Colter’s own off-grid expertise.
Colter’s hired to find a vanished singer, a case that initially seems straightforward. But the gig quickly gets complicated when the singer’s disappearance gets linked to a violent crime. Now, Colter’s not just tracking a missing person; he’s chasing someone potentially dangerous. And as he digs deeper, he finds his target isn’t your average pop star. She’s resourceful, elusive, and lives life by her own rules, much like Colter himself.
This sets up a fascinating dynamic. Will they clash or collaborate? Could this be a case where Colter finds an unlikely ally, or will this survivalist showdown push him to his limits? “Nightingale” offers a twist on the usual cat-and-mouse game, suggesting that two lone wolves might just find common ground, or tear each other apart. Tune in to see how the hunt unfolds.
“Tracker” airs Sunday, February 23, 2025, at 8:00 PM ET/PT on CBS and will be available to stream on Paramount+. The episode is written by Ryan O’Nan & Dominique A. Holmes and directed by Jon Huertas.
