26
27	One of Walker's former partners during his years as a Texas Ranger and the DesignatedVictim of "War Zone". The father of Dana and Keith Reno, his wife, Molly, passed away long before the events of the episode, and after Mitch Bolton murders him, Dana becomes Keith's legal guardian.
28
29	-------
30	* ItsPersonal: Dana attempts to go after the people who killed him at a bar, but is beaten up until Walker finds her and then scolds her for not doing this sort of thing without backup. Walker knew what Dana was up to after Trivette noticed his printer was on.
31	* LikeFatherLikeSon: With him having been a Texas Ranger all his life, Dana pursues the profession of law enforcement herself on the Texas Highway Patrol and likely aspires to be a Ranger herself. Keith also isn't immune to this, either, having learned a few martial arts skills from him before his death.
32	* PromotionToParent: Dana becomes Keith's legal guardian after he is killed by Mitch Bolton and his gang.
33	* VictimOfTheWeek: The plot of "War Zone" has him being murdered in the line of duty by Mitch Bolton and his gang and Walker and Trivette seeking to arrest them.

42	A Texas State Trooper who serves as the deuteragonist of "Unsafe Speed" who assists the Rangers in busting up the Raptors' drug trafficking operation.
43
44	-------
45	* BulletproofVest: He wears one when he agrees to pretend he is shot dead by Gage and Sydney during their covert operation in the Raptors in order for them to pass their initiation and gain access to their meth lab. This is {{Lampshade\|hanging}}d by him and Trivette as the latter and Walker come to his aid:
46	-->'''Freels:''' This bulletproof vest worked, but it sure does hurt. ''(gets back up after being shot)''\
47	'''Trivette:''' It hurts a lot more without one.\
48	'''Freels:''' I hear that.
49	* FakingTheDead: When Gage and Sydney are about to be initiated into the Raptors, he is asked to assist in the covert operation and fakes his death in order for the two Rangers to pass the initiation. The plan works, because he wore a bulletproof vest. He also lampshades this when Walker and Trivette come to his aid after the ruse.
50	* StagedShooting: Walker, Trivette, Gage and Sydney have him pretend to be shot dead by the latter two Rangers, who are infiltrating the Raptors gang and had to commit a crime serious enough for them to pass their initiation. Good thing he wore a BulletproofVest.
51	* TakingTheBullet: He is asked to assist the Rangers in their covert operation against the Raptors when Gage and Sydney are about to be initiated. He is asked to pull over the entire gang, and let Gage and Sydney shoot him to make his death look believable enough for them to pass the initiation. Good thing he was wearing a bulletproof vest, because without it, he could have been KilledOffForReal.

83	-> '''Portrayed by''': [[Creator/MichaelHagerty1971 Michael Hagerty]]\
84	'''Appearances''': "[[Recap/WalkerTexasRangerS9E2DeadlySituation Deadly Situation]]"
85
86	The deuteragonist of "Deadly Situation". A rookie officer for the Sage City, Texas, Police Department and an aspiring Texas Ranger who busted three of his own, later revealed to be four, for participating in a drug trafficking operation. He was set up by the four dirty cops after he turned in the evidence, and they sought to silence him by either arresting or killing him. It is also revealed that he and Walker are distant cousins, because his father, Tom Cooper, a Texas Ranger who died in the line of duty and a close friend of Walker's, was the great-grandson of the legendary Hayes Cooper.
87
88	-------
89	* ClearMyName: Baker, Moody and Rogers set him up for the theft of 300 kilos of cocaine from the Smokey Cole bust, thanks to their boss, Lt. Shell, tipping off the three about him finding out about it.
90	* ClearTheirName: When Cooper is forced to take hostages at D.A. Clark's office after Baker, Moody and Rogers set him up for their crime, it is up to Trivette, Sydney and Gage to find out if he was telling the truth.
91	* DestroyTheEvidence: He thought he could trust Lt. Shell with the pictures he took of Baker, Moody and Rogers' involvement in the drug trafficking ring run by Chick Winslow at Henners' Barn after the recent arrest of Smokey Cole, but he would later be proven wrong near the end when he tells the Rangers about the copies of the photos he took and the negatives hidden at a library. Lt. Shell likely destroyed the original copies rather than hand them over to internal affairs before planting the stolen drugs in his locker, and then sending Baker, Moody and Rogers after him and Simms, where the latter officer is killed by the three and made to look like a suicide, and then tried to kill District Attorney Clark after they chased him to her office. Quickly subverted, however, when Gage and Sydney beat Baker, Moody and Rogers to the evidence Glenn hid at the library and promptly arrest them, and Rogers, from there, promptly confesses Lt. Shell's involvement in the case. While Trivette, Gage and Sydney arrest Chick Winslow, Lt. Shell goes on to commit suicide by hanging before he could be arrested by Walker and Captain Ryder.
92	* DisappearedDad: Shortly after the hostage situation kicks off, Trivette digs up the information that his father is Tom Cooper, a Texas Ranger who was killed in line of duty and a close friend of Walker's, at which point the two Rangers piece together that he is the great-great-grandson of Hayes Cooper.
93	* HeroicLineage: Getting his start in law enforcement as an officer for the Sage City Police Department, he aspires to become a Texas Ranger himself, and his knack of investigative skills, such as the bust he made against Baker, Moody and Rogers, is putting him on the fast-track to just that. As the hostage situation went into full swing, Walker and Trivette pieced together that he is the descendant of Hayes Cooper. After the bad guys are defeated and Walker and his team return to Dallas, Cooper is expected to be back on duty the next day with a promotion.
94	-->'''Glenn:''' How did Walker know about Hayes Cooper?\
95	'''Alex:''' Everyone needs a hero, and Hayes Cooper has always been Walker's hero.
96	* NiceJobBreakingItHero: After busting Baker, Moody and Rogers at Henners' Barn, perhaps it would've been a good idea for him to turn in the evidence to the nearest Texas Ranger office; had he known in the first place Lt. Shell was the leading dirty cop in Chick Winslow's drug trafficking ring following the bust, he would've never turned in the evidence to him in the first place, leading up to him and Simms being set up for the crime. To be fair, however, he doesn't realize the truth until near the climax, where Gage and Sydney arrest Baker, Moody and Rogers before they could steal and destroy the extra photos he hid at the library.
97	* OnlyAFleshWound: When Baker, Moody and Rogers raid his home so they can silence him for uncovering their operation, they kill his partner, Simms, and then District Attorney Clark as they chase him to her office. As the hostage situation goes into full swing, a sniper is employed to kill him, who takes the bullet for one of the hostages after telling her to stay away from the window. Simms was killed and made to look like a suicide, but he and Kristi both survive their injuries.
98	* PursueTheDreamJob: He desires to be a Texas Ranger like his father for his knack of investigative skills.
99	* TakingTheBullet: One of the hostages in the DA's office gets too close to the window when a SWAT sniper is employed to kill him. He tells one of the hostages to stay away from the window as the sniper prepares to fire. He takes the bullet for the hostage, and survives. He {{lampshade\|hanging}}s this after the fact, to which Walker pieces together their relationship:
100	-->'''Glenn:''' So, that's what it feels like to get shot.\
101	'''Walker:''' You're lucky. It's just a flesh wound.\
102	'''Glenn:''' No, Ranger Walker. I'll be lucky if I get out of this alive.\
103	'''Walker:''' You will. And I believe you. And I think your great-great-grandfather, Hayes Cooper believes you, too.
104	* VictimOfTheWeek: He, Officer Simms and Sage County District Attorney Kristi Clark all become this, thanks to Baker, Moody and Rogers (for the latter two; Kristi survived, but Simms didn't make it) and a SWAT sniper (for him, but he survived).

113
114	-------
115	* ItsPersonal: After realizing the truth that Lieutenant Shell was responsible for stealing the drugs from the Smokey Cole bust and framing Glenn, he decides to deal with him personally. Walker is more than happy to help out, while Trivette, Gage and Sydney are tasked with arresting Chick Winslow.
116	* ReasonableAuthorityFigure: He can be pretty hard-nosed at times, but he is a reasonable person. He takes the utmost pride in his job and doesn't stand for dirty cops.

134
135	The deuteragonist of "Faith", one of Walker and Alex's close friends and a professional singer who had to quit to raise her granddaughter, Faith Berry, due to the death of her daughter (Faith's mother), which was caused by a drug overdose. Making things difficult for her is the liver disorder Faith was diagnosed with, [[BillyNeedsAnOrgan which needed to be taken care of]] when Faith started falling ill during the HOPE Center's charity fundraiser, and to make things go FromBadToWorse, a trio of bank robbers stole the ambulance containing the donated liver on surgery day.
136
137	-------
138	* LikeFatherLikeSon: When she and Faith sing at the HOPE Center's charity fundraiser, Gage remarks that they sound like professionals; Alex mentions that the former was a professional singer, until she retired to raise Faith since the death of her mother (Dionne's daughter) and nobody having met the father.

144	'''Appearances''': "[[Recap/WalkerTexasRangerS9E10Faith Faith]]"
145
146	The titular deuteragonist of "Faith" and the granddaughter of Dionne Berry. Her mother, Dionne's daughter, died of a drug overdose when she was just being born, and since nobody met the father, she has been living with her grandmother since then. She was also diagnosed with a genetic liver disorder during that timespan, and it is during the HOPE Center's charity fundraiser, her current liver begins to act up and fail, at which point she needed a donor to stay alive. What's worse, on surgery day, a trio of bank robbers steal the ambulance containing the liver and kidnap one of the paramedics after killing the other, at which point the Rangers are left with very little time to catch the robbers and recover the liver.
147
148	-------
149	* BillyNeedsAnOrgan: The premise of the episode has her suffering from a life-threatening genetic liver disorder and is in need of a life-saving transplant. Two weeks after her current liver starts to give out, a donor is finally found.
150	* DisappearedDad: Nobody met her father, and due to the death of her mother, she has been living with Dionne.
151	* FaceDeathWithDignity: Played straight and invoked with her at death's door due to her liver giving out. Shortly after the ambulance containing the donated liver is stolen, her current liver starts failing rapidly as doctors expected and she begins to feel the symptoms from fluids in her lungs to unconsciousness to a profuse nosebleed. Dionne does not want her to die. Quickly subverted, however, because Walker and Trivette found the robbers' hideout and recovered the liver.
152	* LikeFatherLikeSon: When she and Dionne sing at the HOPE Center's charity fundraiser, Gage remarks that they sound like professionals; Alex mentions that Dionne was a professional singer, until she retired to raise her since the death of her mother (Dionne's daughter) and nobody having met the father.
153	* MacGuffin: The donated liver. It once belonged to a young Fort Worth girl named Sherry Jones, who was killed by being hit by a car, and when her parents heard about the Berrys' plight, they wanted to donate their deceased daughter's organ. After robbing a bank, the Burner Brothers and Randy hit a truck that happens to be in the path of the ambulance containing the liver, causing Toby, who was driving, to break his arm. The robbers then steal the ambulance after killing one paramedic and taking the other hostage, needing him to tend to Toby's injury. The robbers, during this time, have no knowledge of or any particular interest in the organ. After Walker recovers the liver in time for the successful operation, he was able to track down the parents and bring them to the HOPE Center so she can thank them.
154	* MissingMom: Her mother, Dionne's daughter, passed away of a drug overdose when she was a little baby, and since nobody met her father, she has since been living with Dionne.

220	* DespairEventHorizon: Occurs twice:
221	** The first time, when Max is jumped by Crown's men while she is out checking on Rainbow's End at the track, and then returns home to find him unconscious. Being very protective of her father, she is, at first, considering quitting the race, but Max tells her when his bull-riding injury left him handicapped, Walker told him to never give up, and they tell her the same thing.
222	** The second time after the race, the poison that Crown and his men spiked in Rainbow's food takes full effect and he appears to be near-death, leaving her in tears and [[PleaseDontLeaveMe begging him not to die]]. After Walker arrests Barber for poisoning the horse's food (who would go on to confess his involvement in Rainbow's and Max's attempted murders, as well as the Calhoun murders), and later, Crown, Rainbow luckily survives.
223	* ExtremelyProtectiveChild: She is this to Max. It starts when she and Walker confront Crown and his men one afternoon at the track before they could beat him up, then finds him lying unconscious in the stable when she comes home from the track after Crown's men jumped him. This nearly drives her to quit the race, but Max and Walker tell her not to. Also, Max only suffers a black eye and a broken arm.

He also has some hardships to face due to his handicap, and it's the possibility of having his ranch foreclosed if he doesn't make enough money; the only way he can make enough cash is for Rainbow's End to win the Texas Derby, and Wes Calhoun's widow, Sally Calhoun, agrees to be their $50,000 sponsor. He was also able to put up quite a fight when Crown's men jumped him while Jo was out, having only suffered a black eye and a broken arm. He demanded to be discharged from the hospital in time to watch his daughter's match race with Crown's horse.

263	* SadisticChoice: After Bobby hides Johnny Blade's gun in his dresser, Johnny demands he return his gun or he kills Theresa if he told the truth. He decides to comply and return the gun, but Theresa and Carlos found it first, and the former choice escalates to him confessing to a murder he didn't commit, as well as Theresa being kidnapped by Johnny and his gang. In short, Blade was going to kill him and Theresa anyway, with him being murdered by the rest of the gang in juvey in case he ever changed his mind and Theresa being killed by Blade himself and make it look like a suicide, which is quickly stopped by Walker, Trivette and Carlos after Bobby confesses what really happened.

288	** She plays it straight after their parents' deaths. One of their aunts wanted to take them both in, but could only afford one sibling.

He was so impressed with how Ricardo easily trounced Loco before his brutal murder that he wanted to be enrolled in Trent's karate school.
378
379	-------
380	* AnAesop: The lesson he learned after he comes forward and tells Walker what happened is that carrying a gun is the problem, not the answer.
381	* ChekhovsGun: No pun intended in this case. The gun he illegally purchased out of fear of retaliation from the Diablos gang after witnessing Loco kill Ricardo. He accidentally shoots Faith with it while trying to stop Carlos from doing so as part of his initiation into the gang. While Loco thinks Carlos was responsible, he becomes guilt-ridden and tells Walker what really happened.
382	* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: He was responsible for shooting Faith, but by accident, when he tried to stop Carlos from shooting her as part of his initiation into the Diablos Gang, to which Loco thinks Carlos really did do it and gives him praise for it. When he saw Carlos draw his gun, he dug into his backpack trying desperately to get his gun and stop him, but he became so nervous, he dropped the backpack, causing the gun to fire. Luckily, the bullet only hits Faith's spinal column and she has to undergo rehabilitation in order to walk again. In addition, after tearfully coming forward and telling Walker what really happened, tipping him off to Ricardo's killer in the process, he gets community service, but doesn't face any serious punishment.
383	* SurprisinglyRealisticOutcome: After witnessing Loco kill Ricardo, he should have told the police, but he was way too scared to do so that he ended up buying a gun and started carrying it in his backpack, and later accidentally shot Faith while trying to stop Carlos from doing so as part of his initiation into the gang.

468	The ex-wife of Garrett Pope and mother of Griffin Pope and the deuteragonist of "Desperate Measures". She was sentenced to life in prison for murdering Garrett's business partner after having an affair with him, but there was no affair, because Garrett set her up to cover up his illicit business practices the Feds were investigating. After she escapes from a prison bus along with her cellmate, Hitch Harrelson, thanks to the boyfriends of two other escapees ambushing it, she goes on the run to try to clear her name, asking her uncle Walt for assistance and being lent his pickup truck. While trying to stay inconspicuous, she and Harrelson unknowingly give Gage a ride back to Dallas after his motorcycle breaks down. However, after they are stopped for speeding by a State Trooper, the truth behind the two women is eventually revealed when Harrelson decides to kill both her and Gage. While Gage apprehends Harrelson, Lara gets away in the pickup and reunites with Griffin, only for them to be kidnapped by Garrett's men.
469
470	-------
471	* AmoralAttorney: Her defense attorney was on Garrett's payroll and testified against her to cover up his crimes and didn't even file for an appeal; it was a slam dunk for her. Alex notes he should've been disbarred, since she'd be out of a job if she prosecuted a case like that lawyer defended hers. Despite getting no consequences for this, the lawyer passes away in a car accident. However, at the end of the episode, when the Rangers track her to Garrett's mansion and arrest him and his men, she would be granted a retrial. The retrial was going to take a while, because until then, she was released on a personal recognizance bond, but due to her lawyer's misconduct and the new evidence that was gathered, she's almost certain to get a full dismissal.
472	* ChainedHeat: What happens to her and Hitch Harrelson at the beginning of the episode after two other escapees are freed after their boyfriends ambush the bus. The two women turn to Lara's uncle Walt for help to get the chains removed.

474	* CoolUncle: It is unknown of what happened to [[MissingMom her]] [[DisappearedDad parents]], having been raised by her uncle, Walt, who is a taxidermist. Walt knew from the very beginning his niece was innocent of the murder committed by Garrett and how she wants to be reunited with her son, Griffin, that he lends her his pickup truck to find him, even having taught her how to drive in it. He also gives the women regular clothes and hair dye when they take off their inmate uniforms so they can stay inconspicuous. When the news breaks of her escape, Garrett and his men murder Walt, and when DPS finds his body a half an hour later, Walker and Sydney believe neither she nor Harrelson could've done it, but they put an APB out for his pickup when it turns up missing. DPS eventually finds the truck at Griffin's school, where she and Griffin were kidnapped by Garrett's men, at which point she left it behind. After Walker, Trivette, Sydney and Gage track Lara to Garrett's mansion and arrest him, to which she is granted a retrial, one of his goons, Victor, testifies against him for killing Walt.
475	* DyeOrDie: After escaping the prison bus, she and Harrelson decide to have their hair dyed to avoid being recognized; she goes from being a blonde to a redhead, while Harrelson goes from an {{evil\|redhead}} [[FieryRedhead redhead]] to brunette. It was enough to fool Gage, as well as a State Trooper who stopped them for speeding, until she told him the truth when Harrelson decided to kill them both. While it was enough to fool the authorities, it wasn't enough to fool Garrett and his goons when she reunites with Griffin at his school (leaving Walt's pickup behind) after Gage apprehends Harrelson.
476	* FieryRedhead: Her natural hair color is blonde, but when she and Harrelson dye their hair to avoid being recognized after they escape the bus, she becomes this. Harrelson, however, started off as one herself before going brunette.

540	A [[UsefulNotes/SpecialOlympics Special Olympian]] with Downs Syndrome who serves as the deuteragonist of "Special Witness". While Trent is escorting her to running practice, he is stabbed by federally-wanted assassin Donovan Riggs, who was hired by Morris Foley to prevent him from testifying in court against him. She was the only witness to the attack and assists the Rangers and Carlos in catching Trent's attacker, but at the same time, she had to be protected before Foley and Riggs could murder her, too.

543	* DisappearedDad: Her father hung in there for a while for the first few years of her life, and is rumored to have walked out on his family after the fact.
544	* JuryAndWitnessTampering: Morris Foley hired Donovan Riggs to assassinate or incapacitate Trent to keep him from testifying in court against him, and because he is the only witness, Alex has no case to build if he cannot testify. After Foley learns that sketches of Riggs are posted all over the Dallas area because Sally identified him, he orders Riggs to kill her, though not before he kills Gloria Doran, the sketch artist, first.
545	* LeaveNoWitnesses: Having Trent hospitalized apparently wasn't enough since Foley learned a person with special needs was able to identify his attacker, and Riggs is sent to kill her after she managed to identify him as Trent's attacker, though not before he kills Gloria Doran, the sketch artist, first. Cue an OhCrap from Walker and Trivette when they learn that Sally is going to be killed next after they find Gloria's body stuffed in the trunk of her car! Luckily, Walker stopped him JustInTime.
546	* ParentalAbandonment: Due to her having Downs Syndrome, it is likely her father walked out on his family, realizing he wasn't able to handle it anymore.

554	An illegally-licensed trucker who got high on crystal meth manufactured by the Raptors Biker Gang, and ended up killing a family of three by colliding with their minivan before dying in the hospital. He wasn't qualified to get a trucker license due to his long history of traffic infractions and minor drug convictions, and his death is what triggers two investigations by Walker and his team: the meth lab operated by the bikers and a corrupt Driver License Division employee based at a DPS office in Colby illegally issuing commercial licenses.

560	* MyGodWhatHaveIDone: While being interrogated in his hospital bed by Walker and Trivette, he was quite remorseful for killing the family after colliding with their minivan.
