Taking the story forward from where it left off, Reacher season 2 episode 8 is likely to reveal one of Jack’s team members to have been the mole that helped Langston and his crew.

As the protagonist takes over Langston’s team, they may expose a bigger force working behind Langston, who may be Senator Lavoy. Reacher season 2 episode 8 will have the protagonist, played by Alan Ritchson, facing the chief adversary and doing all he can to fight the villain.

However, Langston’s plan to release hordes of missiles on the general masses has created an unwanted twist in the story. That makes things difficult for the hero as he chooses between freeing his mates, fighting the villain down and saving innocent lives in time.

At the end of Reacher season 2 episode 8, titled Fly Boy, after the completion of the mission, Jack may go back to his hobo life. With that, he and Dixon are likely to part ways in the story based on the book, Bad Luck and Trouble.

As mentioned before, Alan Ritchson plays Jack Reacher while Maria Sten plays Frances Neagley. Besides them, the Reacher season 2 episode 8 cast includes Robert Patrick as Shane Langston, Ferdinand Kingsley as mercenary AM and Shaun Sipos as David O’Donnell.

Serinda Swan plays Karla Dixon, a forensic accountant, who is also the romantic interest of the hero this season.

The seventh episode of the show, titled The Man Goes Through, presented the fearless Jack walking into Langston’s New Age Facility alone to surrender to the villain. Before that, he and Neagley had a lot to do, like ensure the safety of Marlo and Jane.

As per Jack Reacher’s idea, Dixon and O’Donnell packed off Marlo and Jane to a safe house in Buffalo where Dixon used to stay. Meanwhile, Jack and Neagley confronted Lt. Marsh and got information about Grant, the hitman who was hired by Langston to kill Russo. After learning that Grant was alive in hospital, Jack killed Marsh.

Jack and Neagley threatened Grant in the hospital about more information. While leaving, Jack ensured that Grant died of embolism, his revenge for Russo’s death. They encountered another hitman sent to kill off Grant, but the second hitman died in the fight with Neagley and Jack.

After that, Langston called up Jack to inform him that he had captured Dixon and O’Donnell and wanted Jack to come over.

Jack lied to Langston that Neagley was killed in the fight with the hitman. While Langston’s men tortured Dixon and O’Donnell, Jack demanded Senator Lavoy’s security men at his disposal.

Making a secret plan with Neagley, Jack left her outside as he walked into Langston’s facility to surrender and face the villain. By the look of it, Neagley will be assisting as per the plan they have hatched.
