More surprising revelations are up ahead, along with thrilling and suspenseful episodes sure to get viewers on the edge of their seats.
Series creator Joshua Safran previously told TV Line that season 2 will have a slower pace than the intense first season. "We took our energy from that. Season 2 is structured a little bit slower. I'm not going to say what it is, but the nature of the event is slower and unfolding as opposed to explosive. We're just going to take our energy from that," he explained.
New cast members will also make their way into the sophomore season including telenovela star Aarón DÃaz, Blair Underwood, Russell Tovey, Tracy Ifeachor and David Lim.
Tune in to new episodes of "Quantico" season 2 which premieres on Sunday, Sept. 25, at 10 p.m. ET on ABC.
