What to expect from High Potential Episode 5

In the previous episode, we saw Morgan dealing with a case that challenged her trust and objectivity. A divorced mom's daughters were kidnapped, and the case took a surprising twist.

In the upcoming episode, Croaked, Morgan and her team get a new case that will surely mix things up. This time, they investigate the mysterious death of an exotic animal veterinarian.

As they dig deeper, they come across a love triangle that complicates things even more. What will be put to test here is Morgan’s ability to see connections that others don’t see.

But, the episode is not all about the case! Episode 5 will also continue to look into her personal life, especially when it comes to Karadec, who is the no-nonsense detective who she has been teamed up with.

Speaking of Karadec, he’s probably going on a date in Episode 5. And, it might not be with Morgan (yet), but fans can’t help but wonder if there are sparks flying between them. We can’t wait to see how it all turns out to be!

Meanwhile, her teenage daughter, Ava, comes to the forefront when Morgan’s protective instincts make her do something that might potentially damage her relationship with Ava. In an attempt to keep her safe, Morgan might just make things worse.

High Potential has a blend of wittiness and heartfelt moments. To top it, it’s also got some crime-solving drama. Hence, it offers viewers a little bit of everything. Episode 5 promises to keep up the momentum with more drama, humor, and exciting cases.

So, be sure to catch the episode on ABC this Tuesday, October 22, or stream it later on Hulu Plus.
