On October 8th, 2025, the latest episode of the police drama High Potential aired, delivering a mix of disappointment and intrigue for the show's lead character, detective Soto.
Soto had been eagerly awaiting news of her promotion to captain, a position she had more than earned through her exemplary work. However, in a frustrating turn of events, Soto learned that her superiors had passed her over for the role, instead choosing a white man. While Soto managed to mask her disappointment during office hours, her trusted partner Morgan later caught her in a vulnerable moment, using a friendly drink to uncover Soto's true feelings about the missed opportunity.
