What happened at the end of Will Trent Season 2 finale?
The final episode of Will Trent season 2 saw Will, Faith, and Angie embarking on a dangerous mission to track down a rampant serial killer who had been targeting sex offenders all across Georgia. Angie, using her wit and instincts, discovers the identity of the perpetrator, who is revealed to be Crystal. Upon losing her cover, Crystal tries to escape but ends up tripping head-first into a rock and ultimately dies.
A conflicted Angie confides in Will and Faith about her connection to Crystal but continues to keep them in the dark regarding Lenny’s killer, who also happens to be Crystal. However, Will is able to put the pieces together and also gets confirmation about the same from Crystal’s mother. Consequently, Will is forced to put the handcuffs on Angie for tampering with the evidence and providing false testimony. With a broken heart, the grieving detective packs his bags and leaves the town.
Is Erika Christensen’s Angie leaving Will Trent after Season 2?
With Angie now behind bars, some viewers are speculating that the character might be leaving the show. However, considering the vision of the creators, it doesn’t seem likely that Erika Christensen will be exiting Will Trent after Season 2.
While discussing the future of Angie with TVLine, showrunner Daniel Thomsen expressed that they are considering multiple possibilities for the character. Thomsen also said that his team wants to explore the different challenges a police official faces while being on trial via Angie’s arc.
