Scoop: Coming Up on the Season Finale of ALERT: MISSING PERSONS UNIT on FOX - Tuesday, May 14, 2024

When Wayne (Alisha-Marie Ahamed) goes missing on the day of Nikki (Dania Ramirez) & Mike’s (Ryan Broussard) wedding, the joyous festivities are put on hold as Jason (Scott Caan) and the MPU race to locate her and finally bring down Inspector Braun (guest Star Gil Bellows) and his connection to the car bombing murders in the all-new “Federal Prisoner #07198F-068P” season finale episode of ALERT: MISSING PERSONS UNIT airing Tuesday, May 14 (9:00-10:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX. (ALE-210) (TV-14 L, V)

Alert: Missing Persons Unit is a procedural drama set in the Philadelphia Police Department’s Missing Persons Unit (MPU). Each episode features a heart-pounding, life-or-death search for a missing person headed by detectives Jason GRANT (Scott Caan) and Nikki Batista (Dania Ramirez). Together with the MPU team, their job is to find the missing or abducted and reunite them with their loved ones. Jason and Nikki, once married, have a very personal connection to these cases as their own young son went missing and was never found.

The emotional toll of their son’s disappearance blew up their marriage, but even though they’ve moved on, their bond remains. Nikki now runs MPU, where she and the team do for others what she wasn’t able to do for herself: bring a loved one back home. At MPU, she leads a highly skilled team, including her fiancé MIKE SHERMAN (Ryan Broussard, Only Murders In The Building), whom Nikki met when he was assigned to oversee the search for her son; KEMI ADEBAYO (Adeola Role, The Blacklist), a spiritually savvy detective with an astonishing knowledge base; and forensic anthropologist C (recurring guest star and newcomer Petey Gibson), who is a master at reconstructing the faces of those who have disappeared.

As the second season begins, the MPU team step into their new office in headquarters, where Jason and Nikki meet their new boss INSPECTOR HOLLIS BRAUN (Guest Star Gil Bellows, Ally McBeal), who wants to keep a close eye on the team, particularly the unpredictable Jason Grant. Jason brings his old friend in to help with the case: master hacker WAYNE PASCAL (Alisha-Marie Ahamed, Family Law), who he worked with in Afghanistan. Jason conveniently never told Nikki that Wayne was a woman (and a hot one!), which raises issues even as Nikki and Mike plan their wedding. Together, the team works to find the missing or abducted and help reunite them with their loved ones before it’s too late.
