FBI spoilers: What to expect in Season 5, Episode 21 (Preview)

When a senator’s child goes missing, the team is pulled in on the case. Here are all the FBI spoilers for Season 5, Episode 21.

We have a case that is sure to bring up the topic of privilege, especially based on that being the title of the episode. The team is pulled into a case involving a missing senator’s daughter, and it may link to a case that local police failed to previously solve.

We are just weeks away from the season finale. The good news is we know FBI Season 6 is going to happen, so we can go into the last three episodes of the season with some peace.

FBI spoilers: 5×21 synopsis

The synopsis goes into a little more detail about the case of the week. The New York office is called in when one of the victims is a senator’s daughter. Of course that is going to immediately pull in the highest authorities to deal with the case. It’s public, and there is usually a chance that it’s linked to a ransom.

The team ends up finding that the case is linked to another missing person’s case. This one was unsolved by local authorities and never passed on. It’s highly likely that the other case involves someone without privilege and power, and there will be a discussion about how the system is unfair to the poor.

"All eyes are on the team when they try to find out who kidnapped the only child of a prominent U.S senator. The abduction also uncovers a potential link to a similar case that was pushed to the side by local authorities."
