His character already sounds intriguing. Along with his tenacious nature, Rhys’s “instincts” are nothing short of a “seasoned detective”. He “navigates” through the “world of stolen masterpieces” and will be bringing in a mix of unconventional touches to the overall storyline.

Aiden Turner’s character is joining midseason of High Potential Season 2, yet the intrigue surrounding his arrival is definitely at an all-time high. We will be able to see him on the upcoming episode, which will be dropping on October 28. Hailing from Dublin, Aiden Turner has worked in a multitude of movies and TV shows after joining the world of entertainment.

He even possesses a distinct talent for ballroom dancing besides acting. He even did many theater works, such as The Plough and the Stars, A Cry from Heaven, and many more. Some of Aiden Turner’s projects that can definitely be on your watchlist before you see him in High Potential Season 2 are Desperate Romantics, The Clinic, The Suspect, Fifteen-Love, Poldark, Love Is Blind, The Man Who Killed Hitler and Then the Bigfoot, and many more.

The sixth episode of High Potential Season 2 brought forth many intriguing storylines, especially with the case of the murder. The murder of the old man initially seemed to be a simple case. However, soon Morgan understood that there was more to it than meets the eye. Before his death, the victim was seen being chased by a ghost.

So, in the beginning, Morgan and Karadec were taking on the route of death by being scared. On further investigation, more information regarding the house is revealed. The house that the man lived in was once also the house of a famous actress, Maddie St. Croix. Maddie St. Croix died in the same house, so the man was always scared of being haunted by her. The man then hired a spiritual advisor, Calliope.

To help cleanse the house of any negative energy. Instead of helping the man and relieving his fears, Calliope poisoned him for an ulterior motive. As the house previously belonged to Maddie St. Croix, it also contained a secret room. In the secret room, a piece of her expensive ornament was found by the man.

He informed Calliope about it. To get her hands on the ornament, she began her elaborate planning. She used the man's trust for her benefit. She then switched out the man’s sleeping pills with potassium chloride. This eventually led to his death.

This episode of High Potential Season 2 perfectly captured the essence of the holiday season by combining it with the crime. Morgan’s keen observation skills came in handy once again.
