<em>The Irrational</em> has successfully showcased the collaboration between Marisa (Maahra Hill) and Rose (Karen David) in a thrilling case this year. The gripping episode titled “Lost Souls,” which premiered on January 7, revolves around the mysterious disappearance of a renowned tennis player in the woods. Naturally, Alec (Jesse L. Martin) is summoned to assist in locating her and ensuring her safe return. However, the situation escalates when an unexpected medical emergency arises, putting the professor’s life in jeopardy. Consequently, his ex-wife, FBI Agent Marisa (Maahra Hill), joins forces with his current partner, Rose (Karen David), to crack the case, while Alec provides crucial insights from his hospital bed.

Despite their intertwined romantic history with Alec, there is a palpable camaraderie between the two women. During a set visit, showrunner Arika Lisanne Mittman discussed the fascinating dynamics of the unconventional “anti-love triangle” involving Alec, Rose, and Marisa, as Collider’s Samantha Coley reported. Mittman elaborated on the relationships, stating:

“Our goal is to foster a genuine friendship between these two characters. This unique dynamic of three adults collaborating—each with a shared passion for their work—creates an environment where they can excel together. They appreciate each other’s skills, which provides a common ground that transcends their complex romantic pasts. This allows for a mature and professional interaction, while the relationship between Marisa and Rose is set to become even more profound.”
