The next target for Bex and her team is a killer known as “The Masseuse,” and the guest star playing her is a familiar face from hit TV shows. The new episode of NBC’s crime thriller arrives this week, continuing the tense second season.
Fans of The Hunting Party will not want to miss this week’s new episode. Titled “Amanda Weiss,” this installment brings a fresh and dangerous fugitive into the story. The team must track down a serial killer who earned the nickname “The Masseuse” for her violent methods. The episode airs Thursday, January 29, 2026, at 10:00 PM Eastern Time (9:00 PM Central Time) on NBC. For viewers without cable, the episode will be available to stream the next day on Peacock.
What To Expect in The Hunting Party Season 2 Episode 4
The official description for Episode 4 reveals the team is on the hunt for Amanda Weiss. She is a killer who became famous for breaking the necks of her clients while posing as a massage therapist. This time, her crime is different. She has kidnapped a woman, but her plans are darker than a simple murder. This shift in her pattern will challenge Bex Henderson and her team in new ways as they race to find the victim.
This episode is notable for its guest star. The role of Amanda Weiss is played by Elizabeth Gillies. Many viewers will recognize Gillies from her role as Fallon Carrington on the popular series Dynasty. On The Hunting Party, she steps into a much darker character. Show producers often cast well-known actors to play the killer-of-the-week, allowing them to explore sinister roles. Eric McCormack and Kelsey Grammer have also appeared as fugitives this season.

A Quick Recap of The Hunting Party Season 2
Season 2 of The Hunting Party started on January 8, 2026. The story continues from the major cliffhangers of Season 1, where the Inmate Recovery Task Force was shut down and Agent Hassani was shot. A central mystery involves Colonel Lazarus, who was revealed to be a former inmate of the secret prison called the Pit and the biological mother of team member Shane Florence.
The new season sees Bex fighting to get her team back together to hunt down new fugitives. Each episode focuses on a different escaped serial killer. Before Amanda Weiss, the team pursued killers named Ron Simms, Adrian Gallo, and Zack Lang. The show blends a “killer of the week” format with a larger ongoing story about the conspiracy behind the prison explosion.
“This episode will have one of our most intense physical confrontations between Bex and a killer,” said executive producer Jake Coburn about a recent episode, hinting at the show’s action.
