Spoilers ahead of the premiere of the third season of Walkertitled “The world on a rope”.
The premiere of the third season of Walker introduces big questions, while being filled to the brim with intense action. In the stressful hour, we finally got to see the aftermath of the Season 2 finale, in which Cordell was kidnapped. Now that fans know where things stand, Jared Padalecki talked about the Texas Ranger ‘s continuing struggles after the shocking premiere.
It’s obvious that Cordell Walker has endured more trauma and hardship on the show in just over two seasons so far, and anyone expecting everyone to leave is likely doomed to disappointment. TV Line’s Padalecki account of exactly what awaits Cordell after the entire ordeal is resolved and how it will mentally affect not only the character but her family as well:
We’ve seen Walker go through a lot, and when he lost Emily, who we remember in Season 1, we saw him run away and try to avoid her. And then we saw Walker realize how much avoidance and being distant have affected his family. He doesn’t want to make the same mistake again. That doesn’t mean you won’t make a different kind of mistake … You knew when you signed up, whether you are in the Marine Corps or now in law enforcement, your life is in danger. He has a target on his back and accepts it up to a point. But now that it has become much clearer that his job and lifestyle have put his family and loved ones at risk, he will have a hard time making everyone feel better and safer, and we see her as one. spiral. in a different direction.
After his wife was killed, we saw flashbacks of Cordell going mad and separating from his family. It seems that once Cordy is finally saved, she will do whatever it takes to make things right with his loved ones, as they will surely be concerned about his state of mind even after he returns home. He has gradually tried to be more involved in his children’s lives and take on a more active parenting role, but a traumatic experience like this could alter that goal or make being closer to his family all the more important. Either way, this is sure to change Cordell in the future.
And speaking of being closer to the family, the first episode wasn’t without additional surprises. The final seconds of the episode saw Cordell find a new roommate: her brother, Liam. It is safe to assume that Liam was kidnapped while trying to find out about Cordell’s kidnapping and, at first glance, he was already quite beaten before the meeting. Like the audience, Cordell was shocked to see his brother and Jared Padalecki predicted what understanding would mean and how it might motivate him to try to escape:
More than anger or relief, I think it’s just worry. I think Walker, especially in that first episode, when we found him, resigned himself to being there for as long as necessary. It won’t break; he will take care of the torture, he will take care of the mind games. He has already been there. And then once his brother showed up too, now he said “Oh shit, there’s a countdown.” He won’t work with me here, with us here. Walker can deal with physical pain and mental games, but he doesn’t want to deal with the same things that happen to the people he loves. So that’s what increases his urgency a little bit, so he realizes, “Hey, I have to do something, and I have to do it now.”
Obviously the fact that Cordell is talking to someone other than his deceased wife will be a nice change of pace while he’s still kidnapped, but the fact that it’s Liam raises the stakes a lot more, he’s not used to dealing with this guy. of situations. . Not that Cordell is a kidnapping and torture veteran, but this is the life he signed up for. Liam is an ADA which makes him much more vulnerable as he is not very interested in this particular lifestyle.
However, with the two caught, it means we’re likely to have some fraternal scenes between Jared Padalecki and Keegan Allen. Expect a lot of emotional anguish, but hopefully the kind that will motivate Cordell to make his escape happen. Cordell is no stranger to danger, but Liam’s involvement doesn’t help anyone’s nerves.
At the moment, it is not known how long they will be captured, but with the disappearance of the two Walker children, only the search will increase. new episodes of Walker Airs Thursdays at 8pm EST on The CW! Check out 24 News Bulletin’s 2022 TV show to see what’s coming out soon.
