On Season 2 of Alphas, a new regular character has been announced, Kat (Erin Way).
Kat, according to a release from Syfy, is a "free-spirited young loner" who can pick up any skill at a single glance, perfect muscle memory. The only problem is that her memories are very short-lived, and her new skill can fade pretty quickly. Becoming a member of the team provides a purpose and direction for Kat and working with Dr. Rosen, played by David Strathairn, may help her reclaim her lost past.
