The season two finale of Disney+'s crime drama High Potential ended on a dramatic cliffhanger, leaving the fate of one character hanging in the balance. The episode, titled 'Family Tree', saw Captain Nick Wagner (Steve Howey) shot and bleeding out after a mysterious meeting.
The main case of the episode involved a body found at a hotel where Detective Karadec's fiancée Lucia works. The investigation revealed that Lucia's ex was involved in a blackmail plot that turned deadly, leading to Lucia's arrest and the apparent end of her relationship with Karadec.
Meanwhile, Morgan (Kaitlin Olson) received new information about her missing ex-husband Roman, with claims that he worked with a corrupt FBI agent. A mysterious figure appeared at her daughter's art show, sparking speculation that Roman may be alive.
Reports from Deadline and Entertainment Weekly suggest that Steve Howey's appearance in the finale was his last as a series regular. However, his character's death is not confirmed, and he could return as a guest star in season three. The final decision may rest with the new showrunner, who has yet to be appointed.
