Series 2 (2021)

When a 20-year old cold case is reopened, the pair find themselves back together and thrown into the action. With an impending divorce, the return of his long-time absentee dad, and danger around every corner, the pressure seems to be getting to Major and he starts exhibiting strange behavioural glitches. However, much to Carver's concern, the problems are more serious than a typical reboot can solve, and our cyborg hero may be looking at terminal failure.
