Designated Survivor season 2 finale spoilers: Lives hang in the balance

Designated Survivor season 2 finale

It may not come as too great of a surprise, at least on the surface, that the Designated Survivor season 2 finale later this spring could lead to a loss of life. However, what may come as a shock is just how some of these near-death situations come about. It’s not because of a terrorist attack or some sort of incident like what happened to Alex Kirkman. Instead, it has more to do with something completely out of the control of any human.

Below, the Designated Survivor season 2 finale has all of the major details in relation to what we’re talking about here:

As President Kirkman continues to deal with the turmoil surrounding the hacker and Congressional investigation, a natural disaster threatens the lives of two White House staffers. Meanwhile, Kirkman’s closest allies are surprised when the president makes an announcement no one saw coming.

So what sort of natural disaster could be coming up for these characters? There are certainly a wide array of different possibilities, but a torrential rainstorm / hurricane is fairly high up on the list. Whatever it is, this is the sort of thing that could test the resolve of these characters and also the White House as a whole, who has already been scrambling quite a bit as of late because of the investigation with Ethan West and the hacking that has been going on.

Is it possible that there could be a major cliffhanger? Absolutely so, but at the same time there are a few different variables at play there — including the ratings being what they are at the moment. There is no guarantee that there is going to be another season so if we had a preference, it would be that the show try to wrap things up in at least a fairly-satisfying way. There’s always room to do some sort of minor cliffhanger just give a sense as to what season 3 could look like.
