The Tuesday, Feb. 11, season finale of “High Potential” ended with a big reveal about Morgan Gillory’s (Kaitlin Olson) first husband, Roman, who went missing when their now-teenage daughter, Ava (Amirah J), was a baby.

Good news High Potential fans — the story isn't over just yet. The series was renewed by ABC in January 2025, though no release date for season 2 has been announced.

In addition to this looming threat, the episode offered a major update on Morgan’s missing ex, Roman, and things between her and colleague Karadec ( Daniel Sunjata) continue to spark. Below, we’re breaking down the three biggest questions raised by the Season 1 finale that we hope to see addressed when Season 2 arrives.

Even if you don’t have traditional cable, you can still watch the latest episodes of “High Potential” on ABC for free using free trials from platforms like FuboTV (free trial), Sling (half off first month), or DirecTV Stream (free trial).

The fact that High Potential has already been renewed for Season 2 informs the ending of Episode 13, “Let’s Play”, which is quite comfortable leaving both the case of the week and the overarching Roman plots unresolved.

It's come to the end of the first season of High Potential. Here's a look at the events of the High Potential season 1 finale.
