‘Alert: Missing Persons Unit’ Boss Breaks Down The Season Finale’s Shocking Twists

deadline.com:

SPOILER ALERT! This post contains details from the season finale of Fox’s Alert: Missing Persons Unit. The two-part Season 1 finale of Fox‘s Alert: Missing Persons Unit finally gives audiences answers about whether Nikki and Jason were really reunited with their missing son, Keith, or if the boy who has been living in their home has been lying to them all along.

Since the very first episode, Alert has dropped hints that Keith might not actually be who he says he is. Those suspicions were only heightened when Nikki and Jason’s daughter Sidney revealed that she was there when Keith fell through the ice and into a frozen river, where he presumably died.

But if he wasn’t their son, how did he pass a DNA test? And how did he know so much about their family and their past? In the first part of the finale, Nikki and Jason go on a mission to find the woman who kidnapped Keith after he explains that he managed to escape from the river and make it to a road, where he was taken.

When they find her, they learn that she’s taken other boys as well in an attempt to save her son, who suffered from a heart condition but has since died (though she creepily keeps him hooked up to monitors and transfused with blood from the other boys she’s abducted).
