The MPU looks into the disappearance of a brewery foreman, a case that uncovers safety violations and hints of stolen trade secrets in the upcoming Alert: Missing Persons Unit. The episode, titled “Burt,” airs Tuesday, May 20 at 9:00 PM ET on FOX.
Investigations begin after the foreman, who recently argued with his CEO over safety concerns, is reported kidnapped. The team soon finds evidence suggesting the abduction might be linked to rivals seeking a stolen beer formula. Meanwhile, a personal entanglement for Lt. Gabrielle Bennett (Megalyn Echikunwoke) arises when her former flame, who is also Damon Houston’s (Thomas Cadrot) step-son, becomes an issue after she questions his client without proper legal representation present.
