Alec and the team had a heartbreaking case to deal with in The Irrational Season 1, Episode 3. Now it’s time to focus on the next episode, and here are The Irrational spoilers you need.
The latest episode of The Irrational focused heavily on mental health. The pilot was dead, which made him the perfect scapegoat. However, Alec and the team weren’t convinced, so they looked into the pilot’s last moments to figure out what was going on.

This episode took us into a heartbreaking deep dive of that while continuing to grow the main characters of the series.
