On this week’s episode of Walker, viewers have been in for a deal with with Debra Mooney displaying up because the visitor star; identified for her roles in Everwood, Gray’s Anatomy, The Originals and naturally as Mrs. Anderson from “Lifeless Poet’s Society” it was a fun-filled episode with rather less intense scenes, however nonetheless loads of motion in its personal manner!
We get to see extra of Cassie & Geri bonding because the episode opens up with them returning to Geri’s place after a morning run, the place they talk about her time with the FBI in Florida and we be taught that Cassie has already turned down Tessa Graves’s supply to return again to the Process Drive; she’s selecting to belief Capt. James and is even trying ahead to placing down roots and discovering a spot to name residence now! Their dialog will get circled again with Geri providing her to maneuver in when the 2 buddies meet up once more on the Aspect Step on the finish of the episode – it seems to be like we have a brand new friendship to get pleasure from; which is one in every of this present’s strengths, pairing up the characters who do not at all times spend loads of time with one another, ultimately do discover their option to a storyline collectively.
Elsewhere, we decide up on the thread of August nonetheless decided to enlist within the military when he talks to Bonham about enrolling in Boot Camp Readiness, an after college program. (one which’s led by none aside from Trey himself – sorry, Drill Sergeant Trey Barnett!) It opens up a ravishing storyline that spans three generations of Walker males; Bonham is supportive of his grandson’s resolution to seek out his place on the earth, Walker is anxious about letting go of his child boy, and Augie is studying about what it means to turn out to be a person. I actually loved the scenes with Cordell and August when all of the mud had settled; having one child develop up and go away the nest is horrifying sufficient, particularly when its your oldest daughter, however to have the second child additionally able to fly, it is a new regular that Walker should modify to.
Onto the case of the week although – we first meet Ms. Maybelline Pratt (Mooney) when the entire Rangers come speeding outdoors the station to encompass the realm; Cassie and Walker having arrived at that precise second to find that she’s given Trey the slip and is engaged on the patrol automotive with a wrench! Discuss an entrance! Capt. James appears to be away at a convention this week, leaving Walker, Cassie and Trey in cost to handle the state of affairs that is arisen with Maybelline, who because it seems is the state’s key witness in a cash laundering case – testifying in opposition to Brandt Jeric – she used to work at one in every of Jeric’s diner’s that was used as a entrance the place she got here throughout his shopper record sooner or later when she opened the improper drawer, which now signifies that Maybelline is in want of protecting custody, however let or not it’s identified that she’s the one in cost over right here as we quickly discover out!
From having furry handcuffs – run away Trey, run far distant – to an precise file that she was going to make use of one way or the other to flee from her WITSEC custody, Maybelline was proving to be fairly a handful for the trio – so after all when the time got here to attract straws in an effort to defend her in a protected location, Walker acquired the quick stick; one thing which neither he nor Maybelline appeared to be too glad about. Nonetheless, the 2 of them have an necessary dialog about household in the course of the night time when Cordell wakes as much as discover her seated on the dinner desk with a little bit of a drink in hand (simply to style after all!) “The times are lengthy, however the years are quick,” Maybelline tells Cordell, reminding him that he is raised two sturdy kids, who’re able to expertise the surface world, whereas reassuring him that there is at all times a bent for them to return.
This is one other stranger that we discover is simpler to speak in confidence to, as he talks to her about his anxiousness over not being ready for the quiet that will probably be right here sooner reasonably than later as soon as his youngsters are gone; it is good to see that the earlier week’s episode wasn’t only a one-off factor for a few of our characters, that is one thing which is able to little doubt proceed to be one of many season’s underlying themes, particularly with our lead. Nonetheless, the speak appears to have finished Cordell good as that results in his dialogue with Augie the place he provides his son the signed permission slip to go forward together with his boot camp coaching.
Persevering with the emotional story that she’s been coping with for a number of months now, Stella remains to be having nightmares about what occurred with Witt, leaving Liam the one one able to reaching out to assist her. It is good to know that Ben is within the loop with what occurred as effectively, given how he is the one to get Stella to open up after a very intense scene along with her uncle on the dorms as soon as he catches as much as her – he’d arrived there after she hastened away from the ranch, with faculty important provides and good intentions to do no matter he might to assist out, however generally, it takes speaking to a stranger who has no bias and no judgement that begins to make it seem to be there is a manner via this. Stella had gone to go away a flower and a rugby ball at Witt’s gravesite, the place she meets his uncle, who appears nice at first, however as quickly as she leaves in a rush, he is on the cellphone speaking to a mysterious man – it seems to be like we’ve not seen the final of this household!
When the Rangers get to the courthouse within the morning for Maybelline’s case, Trey goes on a ginger ale run whereas Walker and Cassie get caught up in what’s clearly a distraction, in order that one of many safety guards can seize Maybelline and take her hostage in order that she will be able to’t testify! It is time for an additional rescue mission for Walker, Texas Ranger! Cue the music and a automotive chase scene via the parking storage which ends in Cordell and Trey getting their punches in, saving the day as at all times! Though, in line with Maybelline, it was all Trey; the poor man ultimately finally ends up single as soon as she picks up the cellphone name he will get from Lauryn, and although it occurs all off-screen, it is not too exhausting to think about how that dialog should have gone!
As soon as the Walker clan reunites on the Aspect Step for some chatting and darts, we begin to assume every part is effectively and good, Stella groups up with Liam and even will get a bullseye on the primary shot, however issues aren’t at all times so easy crusing… the ultimate scene along with her returning to her dorm room reveals a chilling revelation – somebody has left a message “This Is not Over” which is appears extra a menace than a warning, however positively a little bit of each.
Over to you now, Walker followers! – what do you assume Witt’s uncle goes to do now that he is come nose to nose with Stella? Certainly he is the one who left the message, proper? How excited are we for Cassie & Geri to be roomies? And if Lauryn is out of the image, does that imply that the seeds are slowly being planted for Trey and Cassie maybe? And although I did not get an opportunity to speak about it within the overview, it additionally seems to be like Bonham and Abeline are contemplating that possibly it is time to look into retiring? Discuss shaking issues up!
