FBI: International returns with an intense episode, ‘Touts‘, airing on CBS on May 7, 2024. The episode centers on a former member of the Irish Republican Army, now a U.S. citizen, who finds himself in a dangerous situation while visiting London with his son.
While touring youth football academies in the city, the man is shot, prompting Smitty and the team to launch an investigation into the violent incident. As they delve into the case, they uncover a complex web of secrets and a group that becomes increasingly violent, posing a significant threat.
The third season of FBI: International debuted in February, continuing the gripping narratives and global adventures of the elite Fly Team. Here’s a summary of the key updates and narrative twists from Season 3:
The season opened with a literal bang, following on from the Season 2 cliffhanger. The team faced the aftermath of a devastating explosion at their Budapest headquarters, with Special Agent Andre Raines suffering a severe leg injury and the departure of Special Agent Jamie Kellett, played by Heida Reed.
The season introduced new cast member Christina Wolfe as Special Agent and analyst Amanda Tate, who joins the team in the wake of the explosion.
The Fly Team have tackled a range of complex cases, including the rescue of abducted FBI agent Bill Cormack from a Tripoli prison, a murder investigation in Monaco, and the pursuit of a notorious criminal in Bulgaria, highlighting ethical dilemmas and cultural complexities.
Behind the scenes, the show underwent creative shifts with the departure of showrunner Derek Haas, replaced by veteran producer and Dick Wolf collaborator Matt Olmstead.
Due to strikes in 2023, the season comprises 13 episodes instead of the usual 20+.
