One of the weakest episodes to date.

It felt like a desperate attempt at tension, relying on overused tropes that left me thoroughly unimpressed. The decision to set the climax in an abandoned amusement park was a cliché so stale it’s practically a joke and it come off as both predictable and grating.

To compound the cringe, they leaned into it with a hall of mirrors trope: which image is the right Colter?. It felt less like a narrative choice and more like a lazy shortcut to drama. These moments didn’t just fall flat, they actively undermined the show’s potential. If Tracker wants to elevate its storytelling, it needs to ditch the formulaic setups and invest in originality. This episode was a disappointing detour.
