‘Alert: Missing Persons Unit’: Dania Ramirez Teases Season 2 & Talks Diving Deeper Into The Layers Of Nikki’s Flaws
deadline.comThe Philadelphia Police Department’s Missing Persons Unit is back on the case this week as Fox‘s Alert: Missing Persons Unit returns for Season 2.
It’s been about a year since the Season 1 finale, and star Dania Ramirez teased quite a bit to Deadline about the upcoming installment, revealing that the second season will be “a lot lighter” now that the drama with Nikki (Ramirez) and Jason (Scott Caan) have some answers about their son Keith. “What’s great about this season is that we really got a lot of answers at the end of last season to wrap up that whole drama for Jason and for Nikki,” Ramirez said. “They get to put that behind them now.
So now it’s really getting to the cases of the week, and that’s the drama of the show.” According to Ramirez, her character will be dealing with “a lot more layers on an everyday basis,” which might involve her working on her impulse control a bit (no more running out of the station at a moment’s notice!) to let Jason and Mike (Ryan Broussard) take the lead in the field.
She described Mike and Jason’s dynamic as “a buddy cop situation” that lends itself to “a lot of comedic moments.” Season 1 ended on quite a somber note, after Nikki and Jason realized the boy who had been living with them was not actually their son Keith.
