Based on the promo and the official synopsis, the upcoming episode of the show will be quite packed with drama, both on the personal and the work front. The fast teaser for the episode depicts a rushed case with a lot at stake. This is mainly because the missing person in this episode is an officer.

While this will promise enough action, there will also be some interesting drama involving Jason and his doubts about the boy claiming to be his son. However, this will come after an important confession from Sydney Grant (Fivel Stewart).

The official synopsis for the episode, as revealed by FOX, reads:

"Sidney comes clean about the details surrounding the day of Keith's disappearance, causing Jason to cast serious doubt on the boy claiming to be his son; Mike's police mentor brings a missing officer's case to the MPU team."

This episode will likely hold the key to the finale, which is just one episode away after this one. The debut season of Alert: Missing Persons Unit will be 10 episodes long.
