In The Irrational Season 2 Episode 2, we learned about a serial killer who is targets famous people. We also learned about Alec Mercer’s personal journey, especially his thoughts on getting rid of the scars he has from a bombing. In Episode 3 “Bad Blood,” the stakes are raised once more as Alec takes on a new case that puts him at odds with Rose his ex-partner.
What to Expect from The Irrational Season 2 Episode 3: “Bad Blood”
The Irrational moves on to a new case in Episode 3: the sudden and suspicious death of a rising Wall Street star during a hockey game. At first glance, it looks like a terrible accident, since injuries are frequent in a sport with so much intensity. However, Alec is called in to see if there’s more to this story. The main question is whether this death was an accident or a murder that was planned ahead of time and disguised as a violent game.
When Rose, Alec’s former coworker and love interest, is on the other side of the investigation, things get more tense in the episode. Rose, who is now a famous lawyer, is defending the people involved in the case. She makes it clear that her clients expect her to win. As Alec and Rose’s reunion turns into a business rivalry, this fight between them adds another level of emotional complexity.
Alec asks, “Does killing someone in the game make it murder?” in the promo, which shows that they don’t get along. Rose confidently replies, “My clients don’t pay me to lose,” indicating that the next fight will be very important. Because they have different ideas about the case — it makes them want to learn more about the cutthroat world of finance where the victim’s death may have been connected to cruel power plays and tough competition.
Alec and Rose Reunion
Episode 3 will likely make things worse between Alec and Rose because they will be on opposite sides for the first time. They’ve worked well together before, but this case tests both their professional and personal standards. Rose, who now works for powerful clients, has to protect the people Alec is looking into, and their rivalry will keep things exciting all through the episode.
In this episode, we’ll look at the tough world of Wall Street. The victim’s death at the hockey game wasn’t just an accident. Alec will have to dive into the victim’s high-stakes world to find out what was really going on. People will be guessing about whether this was a murder that looked like an accident or the tragic result of desire gone wrong.
The preview also gives you a taste of how complicated Alec and Rose’s meeting will be emotionally. Rose’s line, “Our real reunion will have to wait,” makes it sound like feelings are at play, but they are both motivated to keep their attention on the case.
Watch NBC next Tuesday (October 23, 2024) to see how Alec deals with these competing forces and if he and Rose can find common ground or if their return will make things worse between them.
