Untamed (2025) – Episode 2 'Jane Doe' Recap & Review

Jane Doe Episode 2 of Untamed Season 1 starts with a flashback to the day Jane Doe got shot. Her bag ripped, causing some medicine bottles to drop. She picked them up but missed one. She then hid a bag in an abandoned ice cooler and started walking. Out of nowhere, a stray bullet hits her. Presently, a reporter announces that the investigation into Jane Doe is still ongoing. The reporter also brings up another investigation. People are still looking for answers in the case of Sean Sanderson, a businessman who went missing. In the park, Kyle comes across more clues and finds the medicine bottle Jane Doe accidentally left behind. He notes that the cap has a golden X sign, similar to the tattoo on Jane Doe's body. At the office, Souter talks to Naya, curious about how she and her son are adjusting to their new surroundings. He also wants the tea about Kyle and how their partnership is working out. Naya mentions the bracelet, and Souter takes her to the storage room, where there is an entire box of similar bracelets. The discovery disappoints Naya, as it implies anyone could have given Jane Doe the bracelet. Turner calls her for an update and insists she keep following the lead. Kyle drives to town to talk to Teddy, a drug user who might have a lead on the medicine bottle and tattoo. Sadly, Teddy has no idea but promises to ask around. Kyle takes Teddy's stash and promises to return it if he gets him a lead. Later, he drops by a local hotel to study the carvings, which look similar to the drawings on the walls he found. It seems he has a complicated relationship with Lana at the front desk. At the hotel, he runs into Souter, who invites him for lunch. Souter brings up the case and asks Kyle to consider taking a different job. It seems Jill talked to Souter about her concerns for Kyle. The midnight calls have been worrying her. Souter is also worried about Kyle, but the latter insists he's fine. After lunch, Kyle calls Jill and asks her not to worry anymore. He promises to stop the midnight calls. Kyle drives back to his cabin only to find a lawyer waiting for him. The lawyer, Esther, is representing Sanderson's family, who are suing the park for wrongful death. Sanderson went missing five years ago, and Esther has questions about Kyle's involvement in the case. In particular, she is concerned about his state of mind at the time of the investigation. It turns out Sean disappeared a few months after Caleb's death. Kyle tries to answer Esther's questions professionally. The questions trigger his memories of loss and how he found Caleb's body floating in a river. Naya drops by to inform that the toxicology on Jane Doe came back clean. Kyle invites her to join him and takes her to the squatters' group. Unfortunately, the squatters refuse to cooperate even though one of them looks like she knows something. Kyle also asks about Abuelo. Abuelo is more of a drug peddler than the shaman he claims to be. Sadly, Abuelo is on one of his 'spiritual' walks to find his centre! However, one of the squatters mentions that a ranger named Deniro dropped by the previous day looking for Abuelo, too. After striking out at the squatters' camp, Kyle and Naya separate to follow different leads. Naya loses the horse and is late picking up her son. The lady mentions that Gael's dad called, causing Naya to leave her ex a message, warning him to stay away. In the meantime, Kyle tracks down Shane, a wildlife biologist. Shane has been looking for Abuelo, too. He believes there is a link between Abuelo and the sick deer. As Kyle asks more questions about Jane Doe, Shane clams up, saying he knows nothing. Kyle cleverly manages to fire Shane's gun and collect the bullet. He is hoping to run ballistics and compare the bullet to the one linked to Jane Doe's case. Kyle drops by the lab and begs Marlon to run the test and share the results only with him. Back in town, Teddy visits a tattoo shop to ask about the gold tattoo. The tattoo artist, Linson, insists that there is no such thing as a gold tattoo and kicks him out. Another guy listens to their conversation. Once Teddy leaves, Linson texts him. He asks Teddy to drop the issue, as nothing good will come of it. Sadly, later that night, Teddy is attacked and strangled in his car. The following day, the rangers attend Souter and Mary's 40th wedding anniversary. Milch tells Naya all about Caleb's death and how grief changed Kyle. It turns out a pervert took Caleb when he strayed from his group during a group hike. Unfortunately, they never found the guy. Grief led Kyle to hit the bottle hard, and if it were not for Souter, he would have lost his badge. Simultaneously, Kyle is jealous of Jill's new husband. It is also hard for him to see Gael, as the boy reminds him of Caleb. He checks out of the party early. Elsewhere in the park, a group of young people goes swimming. One of them comes across Teddy's body. Meanwhile, Kyle continues to follow Jane Doe's trail and comes across her footprint in the forest. He gets a call informing him of Teddy's death. Kyle drives to the crime scene and whilst there, Naya calls to inform him she has found Jane Doe. Thanks to her investigation, she discovered that Jane Doe was a young child who went missing years ago. The Episode Review This is one of the most anticipated mystery thrillers from Netflix this year and judging from the first two episodes, we are in for some heart-breaking truths! For starters, Jane Doe was a missing child. I can't imagine the pain the news of her death will bring to her family. For years, they have probably been praying for answers. To find out that she was alive all this time, then lose her forever again, must be heart-wrenching. Still, if Jane Doe has been alive for all these years, could Sanderman be alive as well? Where has Jane Doe been, and what do the wall carvings mean? As for Kyle, we get to understand him more. The fact that Caleb's killer is still out there probably haunts him every night. Seeing Jill move on must also break his heart. He wants her to be happy, but he is jealous of Jill's new husband. Then we have Teddy; he was most likely killed by the guy from the tattoo shop. That guy was listening keenly to Teddy's conversation with Linson. Also, his tattoo looks eerily similar to Teddy's attacker. Why is this guy taking such measures? How is she linked to Jane Doe's case? Lastly, Naya might want to start looking over her back. Her ex is onto her, and he will show up soon. Is he violent? Why did Naya relocate from L.A.?
