Unidentified FBI Agent

dutiful procedural tenacious vulnerable

An unnamed Federal Bureau of Investigation field agent who operates at the margins of the episode’s crises. Frequently referenced but never shown, the agent performs investigative or operational duties that require extended presence in secured offices and liaison with White House staff. The episode reports the agent as having been in an office for several hours and later as injured and prepped for surgery, turning an off‑screen procedural presence into a human casualty that raises stakes for staffers and links investigative urgency to medical and political fallout.
