Jesse Lee Soffer takes over from Luke Kleintank, whoexited the series in Season 3. Describing the character toEntertainment Weekly, Lee Soffer said, “He [Wes] sort of flies by the seat of his pants.” He added that “[Wes] has a really carefree attitude about it, and he’s just going to do his thing, and he’s a breath of fresh air. He’s a lot of fun.” When Wes joins the team, he’s pursuing a suspect who shot his partner and fled to Budapest. Wes is described as having “impeccable instincts and unconventional tactics fuel his drive to stop at nothing to achieve justice.” He’s dealing with some personal issues with his girlfriend.
