The MPU took down the Braun brothers in Alert: Missing Persons Unit Season 2
Alert: Missing Persons Unit season 2 focused on multiple cases in the background of the MPU's relationship with their new leader, Inspector Hollis Braun. The team had constant conflicts with him, and it was clear that Braun was hiding secrets. This story reached its conclusion in the season 2 finale titled Federal Prisoner #07198F-068P.
The episode focused on the disappearance of Wayne Pascal, a skilled hacker, and Jason's former associate. Wayne's abduction happened on the day of Nikki and Mike's wedding. This made the team halt the celebration and search for Wayne before it was too late.
As the MPU delved into the investigation, they uncovered that Wayne's kidnapping was linked to Hollis Braun and his brother Emerson. Emerson was involved in a fatal drunk driving incident and subsequent crimes, including connections to car bombing murders that happened midseason 2. Wayne had found out about the crimes, and so Hollis and Emerson abducted her.
The team's search led them to a sawmill designated as a future site for Emerson Charter Schools. They successfully rescued Wayne and apprehended Emerson. The Braun brothers' corruption was exposed, and Emerson was sent to prison.
Following these events, Nikki and Mike went ahead with their wedding. As they celebrated, fans also saw that Jason found closure and finally moved on.
The season concluded on a hopeful note. However, Jason and Nikki's son's case still has a few loose ends, and fans can expect the series to revisit this storyline in season 3.
