Justin Hartley and his wife Sofia Pernas reuniting onscreen for the upcoming episode of Tracker has already caught the attention of fans. In a clip exclusive to We, airing on Sunday, March 24, Hartley's character Colter finds himself working on a new case that brings him face to face with his ex, Billie, played by Pernas. The two characters work separately to locate a missing horse, but Billie proposes a different approach to the situation.
"Why don’t we team up?" she suggested excitedly. Colter couldn't believe it, "You must be joking."
Billie reassured him, "No joke, I'm serious. Let's forget about the papers. Where's the horse? Time is running out. Together, we can locate Argo much faster."
Billie explained their potential plan after Colter asked about splitting the reward. She emphasized that the reward was substantial, ensuring that both of them would benefit financially. Additionally, she mentioned that the money was legitimate and being held in an escrow account. There were plenty of incentives for them to collaborate on this particular opportunity.

Colter expressed his hesitation about working together, citing multiple reasons, with the main one being his lack of trust in the other person. In response, Billie countered by highlighting the potential benefits of collaborating, stating that it would be advantageous for both parties.
I spent a lot of time and energy thinking about what to do next. Honestly, probably more than I'd like to admit. I believe that if we work together, we can move forward quicker. I recently got a job offer in Austin that caught my attention. It offers good pay without any sentimental attachment.
Things got intense when Billie leaned in to remind Colter of how well they worked together. She left the room after suggesting that they consider a truce to help them solve the case.
Hartley, 47, and Pernas, 34, have acted together in Tracker, marking their third collaboration. They first met on the set of The Young and The Restless in 2015. After working together on the soap for almost a year, they both pursued different projects.

Justin Hartley shared in a 2021 interview with Haute Living about meeting Sofia Pernas before they started dating. He mentioned that they didn't work closely together and for a short period of time. Despite this, he had a positive impression of her, finding her kind and nice to be around. However, at that time, he was in a different stage of his life and not available for a relationship. Timing played a significant role in their eventual relationship, as he considers himself fortunate to have found "The One" in Sofia when both were ready and the timing was just right.
Hartley and Pernas got back in touch in 2019 and soon began a romantic relationship. They officially got married in 2021, as confirmed by Us. Prior to collaborating on Tracker, a project where Hartley is both a star and an executive producer, the couple also worked together on an episode of Quantum Leap.
In February 2023, Hartley shared with E! News his excitement about future projects starring alongside Pernas. He expressed his enthusiasm for the opportunity to carpool and work together, emphasizing the positive impact on the environment. "It’s amazing. It’s good for the environment, too. You can carpool and everything, so it’s wonderful," Hartley said confidently. "Absolutely we’ll do that. For sure."
The newest episode of Tracker airs on CBS Sunday at 8 p.m. ET. New episodes stream the next day on Paramount+.
