The synopsis of "Quantico" episode 2, titled "America," is posted on ABC's website, which reads:
"Alex is on the run and must outsmart Liam (Josh Hopkins) and his team to get into her apartment for anything that could help clear her name. Meanwhile, in a flashback to Quantico training, the NATS are tasked with finding a needle in a haystack while looking for potential threats to national security."
Meanwhile, "Quantico" series creator Joshua Safran revealed to Entertainment Weekly that two new characters will be introduced in the series. One of them is the Texan cop Nathalie Vazquez (Anabelle Acosta), who has always dreamed of being an FBI agent.
