Sir’s Accomplice Is [SPOILER], Confirms Mark-Paul Gosselaar

Warning: Contains SPOILERS for Found season 2, episode 17.Found season 2, episode 17 aired Thursday, April 3 on NBC and answered one of the show’s biggest questions. It’s been evident that Sir isn’t working alone, but the identity of his accomplice has remained a mystery. “Missing While Manipulated” reveals that Trent’s now ex-girlfriend, Heather, is actually Sir’s sister, Lena. This explains her resolve to represent him and how Sir has been able to be in multiple places at once.

In an interview with ScreenRant, Mark-Paul Gosselaar, who also directed “Missing While Manipulated,” addresses that ending. While Found is full of surprising twists, it appears that Margaret has hit the nail on the head with her assessment. Gosselaar confirms that it’s safe to take the lead investigator at her word and conclude that Heather is Sir’s accomplice. Read his full response below:

ScreenRant: Margaret has concluded that Heather is actually Sir’s sister. Do we take her at her word, or is there still more mystery to uncover there?

Mark-Paul Gosselaar: No, I think that’s pretty much her word. The episode ends where Gabi is in the control room of M&A, and she’s looking at Heather. Yeah, we take that as word that she’s Sir’s accomplice, Sir’s sister.

So it’s confirmed that if she is his sister, then she is his accomplice?

Mark-Paul Gosselaar: I think so. We’ve always said that there’s someone close to Sir that has been able to help him, and I think we can make that connection.

What Else Happened On Found Season 2, Episode 17?

Heather’s Identity Isn’t The Only Surprise

The official synopsis for “Missing While Manipulated” reads: “An emotional father takes drastic measures to find his missing son, causing Gabi to be caught in his crosshairs. M&A races against the clock to uncover the truth. Margaret makes a shocking revelation about Sir’s accomplice.” Balancing multiple plotlines, the installment manages to bring each to a satisfying conclusion, while raising new questions.

Gabi finds Monty’s son and reunites their family, even choosing not to press charges against him. However, the father is insistent that he needs to atone for his actions to move forward. Heather’s identity isn’t the only surprise, as the connection between Sir and Jamie grows more puzzling. Margaret pays Gosselaar’s character another visit in prison to tell him that she won’t use Gabi as a bargaining chip for answers.

Before she can leave, Sir says, “The clouds will part eventually,” which is a phrase he heard from Jamie. Margaret is visibly stunned and goes home to search through a box of photo albums. The installment ends with Gabi looking at a picture of Heather in Mosely & Associates’ control room, seemingly ready to take her down.
