Playing off a traumatized Will Trent  (Ramón Rodríguez) dealing with the events of “Best of Your Recollection,” we get a two-part episode that centers around a series of mysterious deaths that link up to a cult known as Olas Collective. Before getting proper approval, Will attends one of their meetings opening up to an edited version of events which gives him an opportunity to go undercover into a wilderness compound and search for both a killer and a stolen baby (all while getting the opportunity to not have to deal with his everyday life).

The rape and murder of a sailor brings Tish‘s (Tonantzin Carmelo) case back in prominence as Franks (Kyle Schmid) wrongly assumes it’s the same man. Both cases eventually work themselves out with NIS solving the relatively simple case of the new killing, but in learning about Tish they decide to help Franks find the evidence needed to put the FBI’s latest suspect away. Gibbs (Austin Stowell), with his own history of vengeance and revenge, acts as a voice of reason for Franks talking him down from taking the law into his own hands. While the episode closes the loop on this story, it doesn’t mean a happy ending for Franks as Tish chooses to leave and find the peace which has illuded her.

With the future of the show still up in the air, the Second Season of The Irrational concludes with Alec (Jesse L.
