FBI Season 7 Episode 16- A brief recap
FBI Season 7, Episode 16, titled Covered, was released on Tuesday, April 1, 2025. This episode began with the shocking death of an undercover Special Agent, Gavin Rice, who was on a mission to infiltrate an Irish mob operated by Sean Sullivan. However, due to an unfortunate security breach among the FBI undercover agents' profile files, Gavin's cover was blown. Gavin was killed by Denis Brady, as instructed by Sean, who fled the scene. The FBI arrested Denis, and upon further investigation, they came to know about the breach and how Sullivan procured the details via Curtiss Swann.
When SA-in-charge Jubal Valentine understood there was a mole among them, he asked SA Dana Rhodes to interrogate everyone. It was found out that the mole was Dylan McKelvie, the IT contractor who had access to the system. Dylan revealed that his motives were ruled by anti-government sentiments and a diagnosis of a terminal disease.
McKelvie also revealed that he compromised on SA Maggie Bell's safety as he sent her profile to the eco-terrorists. Maggie was working on a case as an undercover agent for a group of eco-terrorists headed by Grant DiArmes, the oil tycoon.
The eco-terrorists locked Maggie in a van and set it on fire; however, OA and the team reached her just in time to save her. Meanwhile, the eco-terrorists took their oil tanker and bomb to Greenpoint. When Maggie and the team came to know about the location via DiArmes' daughter Josie, the FBI and army reached the location to save as many people as they could. Maggie took down the detonator and arrested the rest of the terrorists.
