Tracker continues to focus on standalone cases. This week, it chooses to go darker than I think the show ever has before – both psychologically and in terms of onscreen gore. “Monster” sees Colter (Justin Hartley) searching for a mother who goes missing in the middle of the night, leaving her young son behind. From the previews, I assumed this was going to get creepy — a darkened amusement park, a hint at the monster under the bed, the potential for some real spookiness. However, this steers away from the paranormal and into the dark psyche of a serial killer. It’s a different kind of dark to the previous episode, “Shades Of Gray”, which had a more gritty, urban feel to it as Colter tackled a case involving a crime family, and it’s interesting to see the show jumping so much in tone. Previously, Colter has been best placed to use his special skills in more rural cases, often tracking hikers or people off the beaten track.
Now, however, it seems to be mixing things up significantly more. This isn’t a bad thing in terms of creating variety for the series, but it can still seem a bit disjointed. And with Colter headed to NYC next week, it raises questions about how his skillset (and airstream) will fit into a Manhattan mystery.
Tracker Season 2 has been a rollercoaster, but Episode 12 takes things to a whole new level. From jaw-dropping gore to intense action sequences, this episode delivers on shock value. But here’s the catch – the biggest mysteries of the season remain unsolved. So, was this blood-soaked episode worth it, or are we being led in circles? Let’s break it down.
H2: A Bloody Spectacle – Was It Too Much?
H3: The Most Brutal Scenes Yet
If you thought Tracker had already pushed the limits, think again. Episode 12 dials up the intensity with some of the most graphic and unsettling scenes yet. From unexpected character deaths to gruesome fight sequences, the show is clearly not holding back. But does all this gore serve the plot or is it just for shock value?
H3: Fans React to the Violence
Social media exploded after the episode aired, with fans divided over the extreme brutality. While some praised the show’s willingness to take risks, others felt it was excessive and unnecessary. Is Tracker sacrificing depth for cheap thrills?
H2: The Big Mystery Still Lingers
H3: Where Are the Answers?
Despite all the bloodshed, Tracker continues to withhold crucial answers about its overarching plot. Key questions about the main antagonist, hidden motives, and secret alliances remain frustratingly unanswered. At this point, are the writers intentionally stalling?

Eagle-eyed fans have pointed out small details that could hint at future revelations. But are these breadcrumbs leading somewhere meaningful, or are they just distractions to keep viewers engaged?
H2: Character Arcs – Growth or Stagnation?

Colter Shaw remains the emotional core of the series, but his arc in this episode feels somewhat repetitive. While his battles – both physical and emotional – are gripping, are we seeing real character development?

Some secondary characters got much-needed attention, while others felt sidelined. Is the show doing justice to its ensemble, or is it overly focused on the protagonist?

While some moments felt rushed, others dragged on unnecessarily. The pacing was inconsistent, making it hard to stay fully engaged throughout the episode.

With the season nearing its end, the next episode has a lot to prove. Will it finally address the lingering mysteries, or will it continue to stall?
H3: Predictions and Fan Theories
Fans have plenty of theories about where the show is headed. Some believe the next episode will reveal the true villain, while others think another shocking twist is coming. Could they be right?
Conclusion
Tracker Season 2, Episode 12 delivered non-stop action, brutal gore, and high-stakes drama – but it still refuses to answer the biggest questions. While the shock factor keeps fans talking, the lack of real progress in the story is becoming frustrating. Will the show stick the landing in the final episodes, or are we in for more stalling? One thing’s for sure – fans won’t stop watching just yet.
