In the series finale of FBI: Most Wanted, the Fugitive Task Force is forced to look into their larger body as a government operative wreaks havoc. “The Fugitive Task Force hunts down a rogue government operative planning a domestic terror attack,” the logline for FBI: Most Wanted Season 6, Episode 22, “The Circle Game,” teases. Despite the fact that some of the team members might be considering leaving the team, duty calls and Remy (Dylan McDermott) leads the charge. CBS released a sneak peek of the episode airing on Tuesday, May 20. It previews the team’s final case as they hunt for the rogue operative who could put the nation at risk were he to succeed.
Their target got away with important information that could endanger national security and left dead bodies behind him. “He’s prepared to sell out his country for a huge payday,” Remy says in the video below. Even as he considers his future outside the bureau, Remy swore an oath he intends to keep until he lays down his badge. As a standoff with a suspect inside a church reminds him of this oath, he makes a declaration that shocks the bad guy. Remy says that he’s willing to do anything to keep his oath and “if an innocent man has to die in the process, so be it.” The bad guy thinks he’s bluffing, but is he willing to risk finding out?
‘FBI: Most Wanted’ Ends Next Week
As the team tries to take down the rogue operative, the episode will set the characters’ future in motion. Barnes (Roxy Sternberg) has been considering taking a desk job to be closer to her family, while Remy is considering quitting altogether to focus on living his life without the pressures of the job. What will they decide? The rest of them have not shown any intentions to leave the team, so maybe it will continue in some form or another. Speaking to Deadline recently, CBS President of Entertainment Amy Reisenbach addressed the three major cancellations on the network, which included FBI: Most Wanted. Below is what she said.
“It’s not easy to end shows, and we had a lot of options this year. The schedule is really full and so we always have to look at all of our shows, look at the aggregate information, the creative of where they are in their life cycle, what the finances look like, what the ratings are, and then we make those tough decisions. . . . . We have to be fiscally responsible and ultimately, those deals and the shows just weren’t penciling out for us from an economic perspective.”
