Alex Parrish (Priyanka Chopra) will have a lot up her sleeves in the next episode of "Quantico" season 2.

In the episode titled "Kubark," the former FBI agent turned CIA asset will do everything that she can to get more information about CIA officer Owen Hall (Blair Underwood). But Alex needs to do this while she and her classmates at the training camp while dealing with a stress test that could push their limits.

The synopsis for the upcoming episode was released by The Futon Critic, and it reads: "The trainees are put through a training drill that tests their stress levels while Alex tries to gather information and get close to Owen. Meanwhile, in the future, the terrorist organization demands a trade, a move that could possibly end the stand-off."

Meanwhile, the sneak peeks for the upcoming episode showed a new tactic used by terrorists.

The first teaser showed Shelby Wyatt (Johanna Braddy) convincing Miranda (Aunjanue Ellis) and the rest of the FBI that the terrorist organization that they are dealing with is not an ordinary group. She believes that the organization is composed of several federal agents who went rogue, which she called the AIC.

But as she explains that all the actions made by the group are only a distraction, the terrorists broadcasted a video where Nimah (Yasmine Al Massri) was used to send a message. According to Nimah, the terrorists will release several hostages in exchange for a hacker named Eric Boyer.

In the second sneak peek, Miranda was seen escorting the hacker to the terrorists. However, she demanded that 10 hostages will be released for every step that they take towards to group. But it seems like the deal will end in a disaster after gunshots were heard in the area.

The next episode of "Quantico" season 2 will air on Sunday, Oct. 23, at 10 p.m. ET on ABC.
