Warning: Spoilers for The Night Agent Season 2.

The Netflix series “The Night Agent” has been captivating audiences since its debut in March 2023, quickly climbing to the top of the platform’s viewership rankings. When its second season was released in January 2025, it continued to hold a prominent position on Netflix’s Top Ten list. The story revolves around Peter Sutherland (portrayed by Gabriel Basso), a low-ranking FBI agent who spends his days manning the phone in the White House basement as part of the clandestine Night Action program. However, this phone had never rung during Peter’s tenure until the first season. The events that unfold subsequently draw Peter further into the complex web of Night Action, uncovering a vast conspiracy implicating the vice president and the president’s chief of staff.

By the conclusion of events, Peter transforms into a genuine field agent for the Night Agency, paving the way for the series of events occurring in Season 2. Kicking off his assignments in Thailand, Peter stumbles upon another intrigue linking the White House and potentially the Night Action program. As he journeys to New York City, the threads of those involved grow increasingly complex. Among them is Noor Taheri (portrayed by Arienne Mandi), who serves as a junior aide at the Iranian Mission at the United Nations in New York. On her own initiative, she approaches the FBI with confidential information from the Iranian Mission, hoping for asylum in return, a risky move that could have serious consequences if discovered. A key figure in this season of The Night Agent, Noor’s destiny remains uncertain and may not turn out as viewers might expect.

How Does Noor Become Involved in Peter’s Investigation?

And Why Does She Want Asylum?

In light of her role at the Mission, Noor assumes responsibility for reaching out to the FBI to provide information, hoping that this exchange will secure asylum not only for herself but also for her family. With her mother and teenage brother still residing in Iran, she is determined to shield them from the perils that have befallen many others. Moreover, she is deeply concerned about her brother’s impending military conscription and does not wish him to suffer a similar fate as her father, whom she believes lost his life unnecessarily while serving in the military.

In another turn of events, she lacks anything new for the Bureau, but becomes invaluable when she incidentally records her superior having a clandestine meeting with a man named Solomon Vega (Berto Colon), who has been elusive to Peter’s search. Previously pursuing fruitless leads, it is only through Noor’s actions that Night Action has secured any solid identification. Consequently, she is welcomed into the operation and assigned to uncover what intel Solomon had sold to her boss at the Iranian Mission.

Is Noor Successful in Helping With Peter’s Investigation?

And Are Noor and Her Family Reunited in New York?

Solomon’s information may not link directly to Peter’s probe, but Solomon himself and his activities do hold significance. It is Jacob Monroe (Louis Herthum), the covert intelligence broker manipulating behind the scenes, whom Solomon leads Peter and the team to. If it weren’t for Noor, Night Action wouldn’t have managed to uncover this connection, and the biochemical attack may well have been successful. Her diligence allowed her to contribute significantly in saving numerous lives throughout the city. However, this came at a great personal cost to her.

In return for obtaining the specified information that Solomon had sold, Night Action organized a way for Noor’s family to flee Iran. Thus, Night Agent Sami Saidi (Marwan Kenzari) was dispatched to Iran. However, things didn’t go as anticipated during the mission. Although Noor could inform her mother about the plan in advance, she failed to pass on the message to her brother who had no intention of leaving the country. When a minor uproar occurred at their residence, Sami managed to depart with Noor’s mother and brother. However, when they were stopped by the police, matters took an unfortunate turn for the worse.

After discussing with the police, Sami finds himself in a situation where he feels compelled to defend himself against the officers. When Noor’s brother grabs one of the guns and states his intention to stay put, Sami, in self-preservation, fires at him. Following this tragic incident, Sami flees Iran with only Noor’s mother. It isn’t until they are settled in New York that Noor discovers the truth about what happened. Naturally, she is furious about how events transpired. However, they eventually receive asylum in their new country. Given his status as a traitor in Iran, Noor can no longer pursue a career in politics. Instead, she works at a local library and strives to live a peaceful life, even though the loss of her brother leaves an emptiness within both her and her mother.
