A brief recap of FBI: Most Wanted season 6 episode 19
In FBI: Most Wanted season 6, episode 19, titled Starman, the Fugitive Task Force investigates the mysterious disappearance of astronaut Ace Coleman. Initially celebrated as a national hero, Coleman vanishes during a casual poker night at his home.
As the team digs deeper, they uncover that Coleman’s public image is based on a fabricated story. He took credit for a spacewalk actually performed by another astronaut, tainting his reputation. The investigation leads them to Jacob Miller, a devout Mennonite father whose daughter, Leah, is an online adult content creator.
Enraged by his daughter’s lifestyle and the men who support it, Miller embarks on a twisted mission to punish those he deems immoral. He abducts and tortures men who subscribe to Leah’s content, including Coleman and another victim, Hank McClanahan.
While Hank is rescued in time, Coleman is found dead, having succumbed to Miller’s attacks. The episode ends with Miller being shot and killed during a standoff with agents.
Meanwhile, personal dynamics within the team add depth to the plot. Remy struggles with his feelings for Abby, and the emotional toll of the job begins to show. Starman blends the personal and professional dynamics of the team, setting the stage for the season’s final episodes.
Preview of FBI: Most Wanted season 6 episode 20
The logline of the upcoming episode reads:
