Series History

Season 1

S01E05 "Breach"

During the response to the hit squad attack on 86 Pack Street, Dixon tracks Luther's embedded ZSI tracker and identifies that Luther is moving at 0.2 miles per hour---a crawling pace. Her grim reading---"Walking speed would be four miles per hour. He's at point-two"---communicates Luther's critical condition without needing to say the words. Dixon also prepares the defibrillator, providing immediate medical support during the rescue.

Season 2

S02E03 "Extraction"

Dixon returns with Reacher's team during the emergency extraction from Zootopia Correctional Facility, handling comms and navigation as the team breaches an exterior wall to rescue Luther and Pawbert during a coordinated prison siege.

S02E16-19: The Siege Arc

Dixon operates as part of Reacher's team throughout the four-episode siege arc. During the weather wall tunnel attack (S02E16), she provides tactical coordination during the firefight against Clawrence's operatives. She continues in this role through the rescue operation at the Central Weather Interface (S02E19), where the team engages the perimeter while Luther infiltrates the facility to reach Pawbert.

Season 3

S03E01 "Licence to Claw"

Dixon returns with Reacher's team for a Canal District warehouse raid. The team seizes stolen ZTA transit hardware and ZCF security bypass equipment, providing the intelligence that leads to Luther's undercover insertion into Zootopia Correctional Facility as "Rook." Dixon handles comms and technical coordination during the operation.

Season 4

S04E16 "Incoming"

Dixon participates in the ZSI raid that ends with a building collapse injuring Luther. During the operation's cold open, she provides real-time intelligence on perimeter camera loops, giving the team sixty seconds before surveillance drift is noticed. When Reacher's team arrives at Pawthorne Mansion to inform Pawbert, Dixon stays with the vehicles—ostensibly for rapid response capability, though the team's choice to give Pawbert space during the emotional moment may also be a factor.

Season 5: The Icener Crisis (S05E18-21, S05E24)

Dixon returns with Reacher's team from Vladifrostok in "The Godfather", joining the defense of Tundratown in the north sector. During the final assault on The Root in "Final Position", Dixon holds the control room—a critical position that helps secure the operation. She attends the double wedding in "Always" as a guest alongside the rest of Reacher's team.
