Why are Miss Parker, Sydney, and Broots chasing Jarod?
The Centre assigns Miss Parker, Jarod's former mentor Sydney, and technician Broots to bring him back. Their pursuit becomes complicated as they uncover secrets about their own families and the Centre's experiments.

Is The Pretender connected to Profiler?
Yes, The Pretender and NBC's Profiler shared crossover episodes featuring Jarod and criminal psychologist Samantha Waters. These crossovers are sometimes called the Pretender/Profiler crossover events, but each series retains its own central plot.
