5 big takeaways from the Walker Season 1, Episode 2 promo and synopsis

Here’s what to expect on Walker Season 1, Episode 2 based on the promo and synopsis

The Walker series premiere did not disappoint. Now it’s time to see him and Micki working together, which is something we’ll get to see on Walker Season 1, Episode 2.

Pilots can be clunky as they introduce us to characters. They’re also written for the network execs. The second episode is more like the first episode written for us, so expect this to be stronger than the series premiere.

Here’s a look at the Walker Season 1, Episode 2 promo and synopsis to get an idea of what to expect. After this, we’ll get into a breakdown of both.

"Walker (Jared Padalecki) continues to try to reconnect with his family but finds that his kids have developed new routines with Liam (Keegan Allen). Back at work, Captain James (Coby Bell) tells Walker he needs to get recertified to be a Ranger, but old memories of Emily (guest star Genevieve Padalecki) hinder his progress. Micki (Lindsey Morgan) investigates a suspicious fire."

Walker is sure he got it wrong

This was brought up in the very first episode. Cordell believed the guy who owned up to shooting and killing Emily, but that’s not the case anymore. He’s had more time to think, and now she’s sure there was something bigger at play.

Capt. James doesn’t want him digging in the past. It’s time to focus on the present, but that’s hard to do when Walker is sure he got it wrong in the first place.

James thinks Walker should focus on his family

Walker’s family needs his. His daughter is acting out, and his son just wants his dad at home. It’s time for him to just focus on his family now.

He has taken the first step in that by turning down being part of the task force. Yes, it’s important, but there are others out there who will be able to handle it. His children need him, and James thinks this is where Walker can do the right thing.

Walker needs to be recertified

While Walker is back as a Ranger, that’s not the way it’s staying for now in Walker Season 1, Episode 2. He’ll need to get recertified.

That shouldn’t be a problem. He still has it, but memories of his wife will get in the way. Can he keep his head in the game?

It’s not going to be easy based on the promo. Being a Ranger is all he knows how to do, and he’ll need Micki’s help to get there.

It’s hard to get back in the saddle

The title of the episode is “Back in the Saddle,” and it looks like it will cover both Walker’s professional and private life. Not only does he need to get recertified, but he will also need to reconnect with his family.

His brother, Liam, has set up new routines. That’s only natural while he was working undercover. Everyone needed to adapt to each other, and now it’s time for Walker to learn their routines and adapt to them.

Walker and Micki could make a good team

There’s a flash of Walker on a horse and pulling Micki up on the back. Clearly, they’re in some sort of chase, Texan style.

It gives us a lot of hope for their partnership. Not only are they working together here, but they worked well together in the first episode. And Walker is talking to Micki about the problems with being recertified. Has this show done away with the tension between partners trope? I hope so!
