As tangled as they are in secrets, the NATS still have a youthful exuberance that has long faded from the faces of the FBI's top brass. When Eliza Coupe's young agent enters the scene, however, Alex and Co. will have an entirely different type of leader to look to.

"She represents the type of agent the NATS will be in five years, versus the type they'll be in 10 to 15, like Liam and Miranda," executive producer Josh Safran told Entertainment Weekly. "When we meet her in the midseason finale, she's representative of the idea that you don't actually have to lose your life to be an FBI agent."

What's more, Agent Wyland will have ties to at leas one of the NATS.

"She's got some connections to our characters," Safran warned. "She's not just from the outside world."

How will Wyland shake up the storyline? "Quantico" will air its midseason finale, "Inside," on Dec. 13.
