What's going on with Powell in FBI: International Season 3, Episode 4? (Preview)

The episode synopsis for FBI: International Season 3, Episode 4 has us intrigued. Let’s dive in to what to expect in the new episode.

FBI: International, along with the two other shows in the franchise, took a night off on Tuesday, March 5. Now it’s time for the series to return. The promo and synopsis give us an idea that Powell may not be on the team for long.

The writing has been on the wall since the previous episode. It’s clear that Powell can’t deal with Vo and Raines’s relationship, which has really only been platonic up until now. Is he starting to go off the deep end due to how things ended?

The promo makes it clear that Raines isn’t too happy with Powell. The last thing Raines wants is to be held back in his career because of Powell.

However, it looks like Powell is about to go off the deep end. He doesn’t seem to have anything that he care about, putting his career at risk as he flips a table. What is going on with this guy?

FBI: International 3x04 synopsis

The synopsis tells us that Forrester asks Raines to keep an eye on Powell. This makes Raines curious. We’re also curious. Why would Forrester need Raines to keep an eye on the new member of the team?

This is likely all linked to the way Powell reacted when Vo took their breakup so easily. She was hurt and shocked, but she hasn’t fought for him to stay with her. That probably wasn’t the reaction he hoped for, and now he’s hurt that she doesn’t care that deeply for him.

The synopsis also tells us about the case. The team is headed to Bulgaria for a wanted criminal who is exploiting underage American girls. Oh yeah, we all want the Fly Team to get this guy.

"The Fly Team heads to Bulgaria in search of a wanted criminal who is exploiting underage American girls. Meanwhile, Raines becomes curious when Forrester asks him to keep an eye on Powell."
