An upcoming Walker episode may reveal more clues about the circumstances behind Emily Walker's death, but not with Cordell's knowledge.
Titled "Tracks," the episode will release on March 18, a week after Walker returns from hiatus. Its synopsis teases Cordell's brother Liam (Keegan Allen) teaming up with his Texas Ranger boss Captain Larry James (Coby Bell) to investigate a lead about Emily's murder somewhere in Mexico, the specifics of which remain unknown. However, neither character will alert Walker about what they're doing, potentially setting up future conflict between the protagonist and his family and friends.
Emily's murder has loomed over Cordell Walker's actions since the start of Walker's pilot, including his relationship with the supporting cast. After discovering her body, Cordell went undercover for nearly a year to cope with the loss, albeit by leaving his two kids August (Kale Culley) and Stella (Violet Brinson) in the hands of his parents. Even after returning home and trying to balance out police cases with being a good father, both kids remain skeptical and embittered at their dad's past actions, with August specifically fearing that he'll decide to leave them again.
Recently, Cordell was forced to don his criminal "Duke" identity again after August unwittingly contacted a woman named Twyla with whom he was romantically entangled while undercover. Though uncomfortable about having to be Duke again and re-experiencing past sins, he managed to not only stop Twyla and his old crew from committing another robbery, but created a scenario in which Duke was "killed" by authorities, putting that chapter of Cordell's life away for good. However, the episode also ended with Liam telling James that Emily's murder report contained a notable irregularity that deserved further investigation from them both.
