In the FBI episode “Liar’s Poker,” when the team captures drug cartel Antonio Vargas (guest star David Zayas), the entire FBI headquarters is put at risk when his henchmen unveil a terroristic threat to free him. During the interrogation, Special Agent in Charge Isobel Castilleis (Alana De La Garza) is joined by FBI Assistant Director in Charge (ADIC) Reynolds. The presence of Reynolds triggers a difficult decision for Isobel.
