When there is a series of bombings in Queens, the FBI thinks it’s gang warfare. What if it’s something more dangerous in FBI season 7, episode 3?

In the previous episode, OA got a visit from a friend from the past. Guy Lockard guest-starred as Clay Voss, a former Ranger. Clay now works in private security, and the ending of the episode showed how far he is willing to go to get the information he needs. He convinced OA to distract a restaurant waiter so that he could plant a bug.

Could this bug be the thing that helps in the upcoming case? He seems to have some information.

Someone from OA’s past helps in FBI season 7, episode 3

The new episode will see a series of bombings in Queens. Naturally, the first thought is gang warfare. It makes sense for New York, and the FBI is going to think on a local scale first.

However, Clay shows up again. He has information for OA that is going to make the team look at the information differently. Clay will direct everyone to turn to an “unexpected and powerful foe.” I don’t trust Clay just yet, though. The fact that he is willing to do shady things for his job tells me that he’s not a good person. I don’t trust that he isn’t working for the wrong side.

Scola’s search for a new partner continues in the episode, as well. I’m glad that we haven’t just seen someone new step into Tiffany’s spot. She can’t be replaced, so we need to see the work that goes into finding a partner Scola and gel with.

Check out the promo and synopsis for FBI season 7, episode 3:

"After a series of targeted bombings in Queens, the team fears a citywide gang war is imminent -- until a tip from OA's old Army buddy, Clay, directs their attention to an unexpected and powerful foe; Scola continues to struggle to find a new partner."

FBI airs Tuesdays at 8/7c on CBS. Catch up the following day on Paramount+.
