The thrilling new NBC crime thriller The Hunting Party has been a great addition to the 2025 TV schedule. It also marks Melissa Roxburgh’s return to network TV as FBI Agent Bex Henderson (Melissa Roxburgh). Bex and her team have faced some of the sickest serial killers this season but the season finale looks like it will be the most dangerous enemy they’ve faced yet.
A Deadly Hunt Leads to Inmate Zero
In the second-to-last episode, the team had to deal with Tom Beecher, a serial killer who used his short-term memory loss to stay away from police. Bex, who had put him in jail before, was in a race against time to save a person who had been kidnapped. The Killer Chemist becomes the focus of the season finale, which is called “Jenna Wells.”
Officially, NBC says that Bex and her team will go after Jenna Wells,—a dangerous criminal who has become even more dangerous after spending time in The Pit. The Pit, a mysterious and controversial building, has been a big part of the season’s main plot. The finale is all about Jenna Wells—so it seems likely that we will learn more about Inmate Zero, whose name has been mentioned a few times this season but never fully explained.
Is Jenna Wells the Infamous Inmate Zero?
The episode’s promo makes it sound like Jenna Wells might be more than just another killer. She might hold the key to The Pit’s darkest secrets. Her nickname, “The Chemist,” suggests that she is very good at killing, and her link to Inmate Zero makes people wonder if she is behind some of the most disturbing cases of the season.
In the finale, Bex and her team have to figure out if Jenna Wells is the cause of the horrible things happening in The Pit or if she is just a piece in a bigger, scarier game. Could Inmate Zero really be someone else? The mystery surrounding this person has been a big part of the season, and the finale may finally give us the answers we’ve been waiting for.
Unresolved Mysteries and High Stakes
Even though the episode is mostly about Jenna Wells, there are still some unfinished business that needs to be dealt with. Shane’s fate is still unknown, and Oliver’s mysterious source, who was introduced at the end of the previous episode, could be very important in the finale. Furthermore, the methods and real goal of The Pit are still a major source of concern—will the ending reveal what it really is?
This episode could also end on a huge cliffhanger that makes people want more. Since NBC hasn’t decided yet whether to renew The Hunting Party, a thrilling ending could help the show by keeping fans interested. There is hope that Bex Henderson’s story will continue into a second season because the show has done well compared to other NBC dramas.
Will NBC Renew The Hunting Party?
As of now, NBC has not said whether or not the show will be renewed. Sitcoms like St. Denis Medical and Happy’s Place have been picked up for another season, but dramas like The Hunting Party are still not sure what will happen. However, the show’s ratings have been good, doing better than new shows like Suits LA and Grosse Point Garden Society.
If the finale leaves off on a big cliffhanger, NBC might decide to bring the show back for a second season. Fans will have to wait for official news until then.
The Hunting Party’s first season ends on NBC on April 7 at 10 p.m. ET, and it looks like it will be a very exciting episode. The mystery of Inmate Zero, Jenna Wells’ real name, and the secrets of The Pit are all about to come to a head, making for a tense and exciting ride.
