WARNING: The following contains spoilers for Walker Season 2, Episode 5, "Partners and Third Wheels," which aired Thursday, December 2nd on The CW.

Walker Season 2 has seen the return of the Davidson family, a bitter group of rivals that have returned to Austin and are still incensed about losing their ranch to the Walkers after a tragic fire scarred their family forever. The Davidsons' return has reignited plenty of raw, unsolved feelings that have only increased after the Walkers found they were subject to a secret surveillance system in their own home for months. This led the Walkers to question where their individual loyalties lay, with Cordell Walker and his younger brother Liam at odds.

Walker and Micki Ramirez embark on a homicide investigation after a body is unearthed at a nearby construction site; with Denise Davidson and her family out of town, Liam takes point as the district attorney on the job, but it's clear that Walker and Liam still have not overcome their differences on how they see the Davidsons and the hidden surveillance in their home. This brotherly spat is exacerbated when the alleged culprit manages to flee the scene, with Liam and Micki commiserating over their recent personal and professional setbacks. Liam admits he was at least partially relieved when he was passed up for Austin District Attorney in favor of Denise, unsure if he was ready to live up to the immense responsibility behind the role.

While Bonham and Abby visit a potential scenic home to relocate themselves to on a fishing trip with Trey Barnett, away from all the drama with the Davidson family, Stella and August decide to take advantage of the situation and throw an impromptu party with their high school classmates at the ranch. As Stella and Todd Davidson grow closer, August investigates the burned out barn on the ranch that resulted in the tragedy that cost the Davidson family everything. Nearly injuring himself in a fall, August discovers the Walker family-branded lantern in the barn that began the fire in the first place.

Walker joins Captain Larry James and his girlfriend Jillian at the Side Step, with Walker intending to make the outing something of a double date with Geri Broussard. However, shortly after arriving at the Side Step, Walker is shocked to see Geri on an apparent date with Drew, someone she met during a grief counseling group session. Walker's questions about Jillian's Mustang keys make her visibly uncomfortable, leading her to leave abruptly. While this raises Walker's suspicions, he is called away by Micki and Liam to resume the investigation when they develop a new lead on the murder mystery.

Micki and Liam continue to investigate the construction yard murder, inadvertently stumbling across the woman who fled the scene from Walker, a blonde woman named Willa. Taking her into custody, Willa reveals she is looking into the unsolved murder of her father, with a sympathetic Micki deciding not to hold Willa in custody. Rejoined by Walker, Micki and Liam tail Willa, who has since taken a suspect in her father's death hostage named Remy. Held at gunpoint by Willa, Remy admits to murdering Willa's father, with Micki successfully talking down Willa from executing Remy on the spot. In the aftermath, Walker and Liam reconcile while Walker apologizes to Micki for not taking the trauma she endured during her undercover assignment as seriously as he should have.

Bonham and Abby put the party their grandchildren are throwing at a premature end, angered but ultimately good-natured about the kegger at their home. However, Trey learns from the older couple about the existence of Garrison, Micki's ex who was killed during her undercover assignment that continues to mess her up so bad. Trey leaves Micki a note asking about Garrison when she returns home, putting their relationship in a rocky position while Walker and James commiserate at the Side Step over their own romantic woes.

To see the family's latest troubles, Walker Season 2 airs Thursdays at 8pm ET/PT on The CW, with new episodes available to stream the following day on The CW App.
