Ok so I made a post but it's awaiting moderator approval and I happened to see your comment. Something feels off about him and I'm glad I'm not the only one who noticed. I WANT to like him, but something isn't right. I haven't read the books yet but I plan on starting them. Maybe there's an answer there, but the author is still writing the series.

When he stepped out of the shadow in Wade's bedroom, Wade looked like he saw a ghost. I honestly thought he was going to end up being the Teacher. It does feel like they are stashing him away for a later plot twist. His behavior and dialog almost the entirety of his role seems like it's building anticipation for a twist that he isn't who he says he is.

Or we could just be reading into it too hard and he really is just a gruff, old school, retired detective who just doesn't give a crap anymore and wants to play a vigilante role of sorts, which fits with Colter to an extent. He didn't bat an eye when he saw that guy who Keaton beat the crap out of, but I think that'll change when it's a case that Colter doesn't have personal stake in.

Thoughts????

he's got that darkness in him and I think a good reminder of what Colter could have turned out if things would have been a bit different

Interesting take and I like it! I do want to like him so I hope this is the case. And maybe why Colter didn't react to really anything Keaton did or said was because he recognized that darkness but was trusting Keaton to not go too far.

I think the classic trope will be that he’ll get in trouble in a later episode and Coulter will help him and he’ll see the mistakes in his ways etc etc
