'Carmen Sandiego' Season 4 Spoilers: What past secrets will Carmen discover in the show's final season?
Though she's smart enough to stay one step ahead of VILE's evil plots again, and again, and again, uncovering the constant mystery of what they're planning is nothing compared to the mystery of who Carmen Sandiego (Gina Rodriguez) is, and where she came from. Found as an orphan child and raised to be a thief, she's since turned on those who raised her to act as a force for good. As the show reaches its final season, the secret origins of Carmen Sandiego are the one thing the international anti-thief has left to find.
Last season, we saw how difficult it was for Carmen to focus on investigating clues about her past when VILE was busy hatching one scheme after another. In this season, it's going to be harder than ever to keep a lid on VILE's schemes, as they come up with a new army of technological thieves designed to be the perfect operatives. On top of that, she's going to have to operate without a vital member of her team -- Player (Finn Wolfhard), who has to finally leave his computer behind to attend school.
She's going to be finding some new, unexpected allies, however, as Chase Devineaux (Rafael Petardi) has finally come around to believing that Carmen is firmly on the side of good, and not a thief who should be arrested on sight. Adding to that is Carmen's old friend turned nemesis, Graham (Michael Goldsmith), whose mind was erased by VILE and has been living his own life. VILE has decided to put all hands on deck, however, and Graham may just see his memories restored to him this season. The question is, whose side will he be on when he remembers all that's happened to him?
It's Carmen Sandiego's most challenging season yet, and she's going to need all her wits about her to stop VILE once and for all. Once she does so, will she finally get the answers to her own past that she's been seeking for so long?
The official synopsis for the season reads, "Carmen Sandiego is back and fighting against VILE harder than ever!" You can watch the trailer for the season below:
