Just when you thought Sam Nelson had seen the worst of it — a bomb-rigged Berlin subway, a manipulative mole, his ex-wife on the run in the woods — [Hijack Season 2](https://technosports.co.in/) cranks the pressure up another notch. Episode 6 blew the conspiracy wide open by finally naming Robert Lang as the mastermind, and now with only two episodes remaining, every second counts. Episode 7, titled “Contact,” is almost here.

## Where Episode 6 Left Things — and Why Episode 7 Matters So Much

Episode 6 took the investigation to a deeper level and identified Robert Lang as the key figure behind the entire operation. [Variety](https://variety.com/2026/film/news/toy-story-5-trailer-buzz-woody-1236625360/) That revelation reframes everything Sam has been fighting through since the season premiere. Meanwhile, Marsha outsmarts her pursuers by pretending to help Gold with first aid before mentioning a nearby Accident and Emergency centre [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toy_Story_5) — a clever move, but one that buys only so much time.

In “Contact,” Sam is expected to gamble on dangerous tactics to outmanoeuvre the police [Variety](https://variety.com/2026/film/news/toy-story-5-trailer-buzz-woody-1236625360/), and the pressure from both law enforcement and intelligence agencies is intensifying simultaneously. Olivia is also expected to try influencing Winter’s next move [Wikipedia](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Toy_Story_5) — a power play that could shift the entire board heading into the finale.

Season 2 moves [Hijack](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hijack_(TV_series)) from the sky to the underground — Sam is this time caught aboard a hijacked Berlin U-Bahn subway train, with bombs under each carriage and a mole among the passengers. It’s the same real-time, nerves-of-steel format that made Season 1 a global hit, but the stakes feel considerably more personal this time around.

## Two Episodes Left — and a Finale That Has to Deliver

The eight-episode season runs from January 14 to March 4, 2026 [Disney](https://movies.disney.com/toy-story-5), with the weekly Wednesday rollout keeping tension alive between instalments. Season 2 currently sits at 73% on Rotten Tomatoes — below Season 1’s 90% — but with the Robert Lang reveal and Marsha’s deteriorating situation in play, the final stretch has every opportunity to close strong.
