FBI: Most Wanted Season 6 Episode 19 Recap: “Starman” - A hero’s dark past and a killer’s obsession unraveled

The nineteenth episode of FBI: Most Wanted Season 6, "Starman," begins with a stunning disappearance. Ford "Ace" Coleman, a former star astronaut, disappears from his garage during a poker game with his friends. There is no break-in, no ransom note, and no warning whatsoever. His friends are left reeling—and so is the Fugitive Task Force.

Supervisory Special Agent Remy Scott and his squad are brought in to investigate what at first seems like a squeaky-clean abduction. But this is FBI: Most Wanted, and nothing is ever that neat. As they get deeper, Coleman's glamorous public persona as a space hero starts to crack.

The hero with a shaky backstory in FBI: Most Wanted

At first, everybody figures Coleman's history made him a target—he's a favorite hero with an illustrious career, after all? Not so much. The team discovers that although Coleman was being hailed for fixing the Hubble Space Telescope, the actual repairs were performed by another astronaut, Doug Boswell. Coleman's reputation was more a function of public relations than real heroics.

That revelation blows open possible motives: perhaps envy, perhaps revenge, perhaps someone finally seeking to reveal the truth. But then the situation takes a darker and more sinister turn.

A Second disappearance in FBI: Most Wanted—and a disturbing pattern

Not long after Coleman disappears, a second man, Hank McClanahan, also disappears under almost identical circumstances. The Task Force soon discovers that both men were associated with a subscription-based adult content website named FansAllowed, and with the same producer in particular.

This is no longer a one-time crime. The online trail points to the fact that the abductions aren't random—the abductions are targeted. That's when the team honed in on Jacob Miller, a devoutly religious Mennonite father. His motive: a warped sense of protection.

The real killer in FBI: Most Wanted: Jacob Miller’s warped justice

Miller's daughter, Leah, is an adult content creator on FansAllowed, and he thinks the men paying for her content are predators corrupting her soul. To him, taking them out is a redemption. And so he stalks, kidnaps, and in Coleman's instance, murders.

Hank McClanahan is discovered alive, shaken but cooperative. His statement assists the team in piecing together Miller's motive and whereabouts. They also make a frightening discovery: Esther Miller, Jacob's wife, was killed and stashed away in a freezer in his house, indicating that this wasn't his first violent act, merely his latest.

As the Task Force ultimately corners Jacob Miller, he does not surrender. During a high-stakes and fatal standoff, he is shot and killed by police.

Meanwhile, Remy and Abby hit a crossroad

As all of this goes down, the FBI: Most Wanted Season 6 Episode 19 also tracks the growing tension between Remy Scott and Abby. She's looking for something more stable, perhaps even fixed. He, conversely, is all in on his volatile line of work. Their contrast comes through more as the episode wears on, building emotional tension to add contrast to the high-stakes case.

FBI: Most Wanted Season 6 Episode 19 is a chilling reminder of how obsession, shame, and digital trails can intersect in nefarious ways. Ford Coleman's murder lends gravity to a case that already feels personal and psychologically nuanced. Jacob Miller isn't merely an evil villain—he's a man who used morality and control as weapons, in whose wake there was pain and death.
