Game Maker Revealed as Matthew Clark

News summary

Episode 2, "Checkmate," of ABC's High Potential reveals the Game Maker's identity as Matthew Clark (David Giuntoli), and Morgan Gillory (Kaitlin Olson) and the LAPD apprehend him after tense confrontations, though the showrunner warns the threat may not be finished. Season 2 continues to raise the stakes for Morgan, who must juggle the case, searching for her long-missing ex Roman, and parenting three children while consulting for the LAPD. Reviewers praise Olson's performance and wardrobe and call the antagonist one of the series' creepiest yet. Music choices have become a deliberate storytelling device this season, with repeated use of The Tokens' The Lion Sleeps Tonight and New Order's Bizarre Love Triangle (plus a Priscilla Ahn cover) to guide clues and mood. ABC has released details for Episodes 3 ("Eleven Minutes") and 4 ("Behind the Music"), which tease a setback for an LAPD officer and mother-daughter drama.
