The show follows a team of Alphas who are recruited by the government to use their abilities to investigate criminal activities and prevent potential threats to society.

David Strathairn plays the role of Dr. Lee Rosen, the leader of the team tasked with tracking down Alphas who go rogue and pose a threat to society. He also serves as the mentor to the team members and is responsible for guiding them to hone their abilities.

Warren Christie plays the role of Cameron Hicks, a former Marine who possesses superhuman aim and is able to hit any target with incredible accuracy.

The show's plot follows the team as they investigate cases of criminal activity and threats to society, often encountering other Alphas with dangerous and unpredictable abilities. The team members must use their unique abilities to work together to unravel mysteries and prevent major disasters.

One of the central themes of the show is the different ways that the Alphas perceive and interact with the world around them.
