The Irrational : Is One of Alec's Assistants Leaving Ahead of Season 2? EP Weighs In"/> <meta class="swiftype" name="body" data-type="text" content="This post contains spoilers from The Irrational's Season 1 finale. Proceed accordingly.

By the end of Monday's The Irrational finale, Alec Mercer had an opening on his staff.

Phoebe announced that she'd accepted an offer to work for a professor whose work was less likely to pull her into life-and-death situations. And though she fretted over telling Alec that she was leaving his office, he put her at ease by saying that he already knew. In fact, he'd recommended her for the new position.

But does that mean that Molly Kunz, who plays the academic, is leaving the show? For the answer, we went directly to showrunner/executive producer Arika Lisanne Mittman.

"She will absolutely be back in Season 2," Mittman said. "We have lots more stories to tell with the character Phoebe and with Molly. She'll continue to be an integral part of Season 2."

The EP added: "Even though [Phoebe] is taking on this new position, it's just an opportunity to explore a new world for her."

Most of Monday's finale dealt with the resolution of the show's season-long mystery: Who was the mastermind behind the bombing that scarred Alec decades ago? For the answer to that — and all of Mittman's thoughts on what's ahead in Season 2 (especially after that six-week time jump!) — make sure to check out our post mortem interview here.
