Alex Parrish (Priyanka Chopra) will face new challenges when the sophomore season of "Quantico" begins in September.

By the end of season 1, a man named Matthew Keyes (Henry Czerny) went up to Alex to offer her a job in the CIA after FBI felt that she could no longer do her job properly after she became recognizable when she was suspected as the mastermind in the Grand Central Station bombing. But will she really leave the FBI to accept Keyes's offer?

According to a teaser shared by showrunner Josh Safran with TVLine, an unexpected surprise will be revealed at the end of the first half of the season 2 premiere. This will have something to do with her possible new job at the CIA.

"We're very interested in the fact that the FBI's so much about being honest, truthful and living up to your badge," he said, "and the CIA is the opposite. You succeed if you can deceive. So it's going to be interesting to see. It's like a funhouse mirror of what we've seen."

Safran also told Entertainment Weekly that the events that will happen in season 2 will be bigger than what transpired during the first season.

"But while it is bigger, it's also more contained. It allows us to feel more rooted every time we travel from one timeline to another," the showrunner explained. "Again, if season 1 was sort of The Fugitive, season 2 has another blockbuster in mind."

However, Safran chose not to divulge more details about their plans for season 2 to prevent the leak of the show's plot next season.

Fans of the terrorism drama thriller are also looking forward to see what will happen next to the relationship between Alex and Ryan Booth (Jake McLaughlin) when "Quantico" returns to ABC on Sunday, Sept. 25.
