No matter how you look at it, Tracker isn’t exactly set up to be an ensemble show. Sure, there are other characters in the narrative besides Colter, and they certainly help to make the show stronger, but the show is very much driven by the lead and his thrilling adventures. Nevertheless, the second most important character on the show, Reenie, has a lot of potential worth exploring beyond the standard episode structure. Whether it’s her growing law practice, her personal life, or her mental state after nearly being killed at the end of Season 2’s penultimate episode, “Rules of the Game,” it would be great to dive a bit deeper into what makes Reenie tick. Additionally, Tracker should consider spending more time in a courtroom environment, which is something we haven’t seen hardly seen at all since the series began. While we’ve always been told how good a lawyer Reenie is, it’s not something we’ve actually seen a lot of ourselves.
Considering how Reenie conscripted Velma Bruin (Abby McEnany) into building her new practice, the Season 2 opener suggested that the show was going to expand on that a bit further. However, in true Tracker fashion, it never did. It’s no secret that the show often sets up ideas that take considerable time to pay off, and whether that’s due to the series’ distinct procedural format or a plot to build more anticipation by the writers, it can grow quite tiresome. Perhaps more time with Reenie in Season 3 would also give the show some time to explain how she can possibly be practicing law in every state where Colter finds himself in a legal bind. All of those individual state bar dues must come at a hefty cost, and although this is a television series that certainly asks us to suspend our disbelief at times, that’s one question that has real-life lawyers scratching their heads
There’s also the matter of Reenie and Colter’s will-they/won’t-they dynamic. The show has continuously teased that these two may be a thing — if not now, then possibly in the future — though never fully committed to the idea. It’s clear that they care deeply about each other, and since we’ve already seen Colter’s side of the story, this may open the door for us to better understand how Reenie feels about her closest guy friend as well. Yes, we know, she’s still dating Elliot Rusch (Michael Rady), but after everything that went down with Sharf in the penultimate episode (a man who Elliot recommended Reenie to), we have to wonder how long that fling will last.
Let’s get real for a second—Reenie in Tracker is more than just a side character. She’s smart, resourceful, and, let’s face it, criminally underused. As fans dig deeper into the emotionally complex and action-packed world of Tracker, there’s one glaring gap: Reenie’s law practice. Season 3 offers the perfect opportunity to dive into her character and weave legal drama into the show’s high-stakes narrative.
The Rise of Reenie – From Sidekick to Showstopper
Reenie’s Role in Tracker So Far
Since her introduction, Reenie has played a solid supporting role—offering legal advice, grounding Colter, and showing flashes of brilliance. But viewers are left craving more. Why? Because she’s clearly got depth, a moral compass, and a fierce intellect that could add new layers to the show.
Audiences Love a Strong Female Lead
Let’s face it—audiences are hungry for strong, complex women characters. Reenie fits the mold perfectly. Giving her law practice more screen time doesn’t just make sense from a story perspective—it’s also a smart move for ratings.
Why Legal Drama Enhances Action Series
Conflict That Cuts Deeper
A courtroom setting brings a new kind of tension. Imagine the psychological chess matches, the moral dilemmas, the shocking reveals—this is storytelling gold.
Bridging Law and Justice in Tracker
While Colter tracks down the truth in the streets, Reenie could be battling for justice in the courtroom. It’s the perfect dual narrative that could elevate the entire show.
The Narrative Potential of Reenie’s Law Practice
Character Development Opportunities
Showing Reenie in her professional element allows for rich character development. We’d see her values tested, her strategies evolve, and her relationships deepen.
Flashbacks, Backstories, and Secrets
Her past cases, her motivations for becoming a lawyer—these are unexplored territories ripe for emotional, gripping storytelling.
The Emotional Toll of Lawyering
Let’s not sugarcoat it. Practicing law is draining. Showing Reenie struggle, fight, and win (or lose) in court could humanize her in a way fans haven’t seen before.
Integrating Legal Drama Into Season 3
Case-of-the-Week Legal Plots
Adding a legal “B-story” in each episode—where Reenie handles cases tangentially related to Colter’s investigations—would deepen the show’s structure and keep viewers hooked.
Ethical Dilemmas and Grey Areas
Not every client is innocent. Reenie might have to choose between the law and her conscience. That’s juicy, right?
Reenie as a Legal Ally in the Field
Reenie could become more involved in Colter’s investigations—securing warrants, finding legal loopholes, or even defending him in court. The synergy between fieldwork and legal work would be epic.
Realism Meets Entertainment
Making Legal Scenes Engaging
Legal dramas don’t have to be slow and wordy. Think fast-paced objections, strategic questioning, and heated courtroom debates. Done right, they’re edge-of-your-seat entertainment.
Pulling Inspiration from Hit Legal Dramas
The Good Wife, Suits, How to Get Away with Murder—these shows prove that legal drama can attract massive audiences. Tracker could take cues while carving its unique path.
What Expanding Reenie’s Storyline Means for the Show
Diversifying the Plot
Injecting legal drama creates multiple storylines—keeping the show fresh and unpredictable.
Attracting a Broader Audience
More Reenie means pulling in fans of legal dramas, especially those looking for a strong, female-led arc.
Setting Up Future Seasons
By investing in Reenie’s character now, the writers lay the groundwork for potential spin-offs or deeper future arcs.
Fans Are Ready—And They’re Asking for It
Social Media Buzz Around Reenie
From Twitter threads to Reddit discussions, fans have been vocal: they want more Reenie. Ignoring that would be a missed opportunity.
Representation Matters
A powerful Black woman leading a successful law practice? That’s the kind of representation we need more of—especially in a genre dominated by male-centric stories.
The Time Is Now—Don’t Waste Season 3
Tracker has the perfect setup for this expansion. The show has its loyal base, solid viewership, and the freedom to grow creatively. Why not seize the moment?
Conclusion: Reenie’s Legal Practice Could Be Tracker’s Secret Weapon
Let’s call it what it is: Reenie’s law career is a goldmine of narrative possibilities. Expanding her role in Tracker Season 3 wouldn’t just flesh out her character—it could reshape the show entirely. The courtroom is where drama lives, where stories twist, and where justice (or injustice) strikes. Give Reenie that platform. The fans want it. The show needs it. And honestly? Reenie deserves it.
