What Happens To Alex & Ryan's Story?
To recall, Alex and Ryan got engaged in the last episode of "Quantico" season 2. Now that she discovered Ryan's betrayal, spoilers say that she'll distance herself from him. In an interview with Entertainment Weekly, Safran explained that Ryan didn't have the best intentions when he asked Alex to marry him.
What pushed Ryan to propose to Alex stemmed mostly from the helping out in killing a man. Alex became a glimmer of hope in his otherwise dark life. The showrunner said that Ryan saw Alex as someone to hold on to after his wrongdoings. While this isn't the best reasons to marry someone, the executive producer still hopes that they will be happy together.
