FBI's Jubal Is In Serious Danger In CBS' Season Finale, But The Promo Has Me More Worried About A Totally Different Character
Spoilers ahead for the penultimate episode of FBI Season 7, called "Devoted" and available streaming with a Paramount+ subscription, plus light spoilers for the upcoming finale.
FBI revisited the past in "Devoted," with the return of Duke Ducoyle and the problems that "Calvin" caused for Isobel in particular, although she was spared the fate of the two IRS agents who were murdered in the second-to-last episode of the spring 2025 TV schedule. Based on CBS' episode description for the upcoming finale as well as most of the preview, Jubal seems to be the one in the most danger... but one clue has me more concerned about Isobel for the second episode in a row.
The upcoming Season 7 finale of FBI is called "A New Day," and it won't have to double as a series finale thanks to the drama's triple renewal last year. (Both FBI: International and FBI: Most Wanted will end with their upcoming spring finales.) Per the description from CBS, Jubal is going to have a close call early in the hour, and the danger will only increase from there. Take a look:
After Jubal narrowly escapes a calculated assault on a secret FBI office, the team discovers a rogue terrorist group has infiltrated the FBI. Unsure of who to trust, the team must work in the shadows to unmask the culprits threatening the sanctity of the New York field office.
Well, that certainly sounds like a case fit for a finale! I'm officially curious about this secret FBI office, and whether Jubal is working on a case out of that office or just visiting. The preview for the finale shows Jubal crashing through a glass door, so I have no trouble believing the "narrowly escapes" part of the episode description. The moment with Isobel struck me for a different reason. Check it out, in case you missed it:
Isobel is sporting a pretty nasty cut on her face in that preview, and she didn't have that injury at the end of "Devoted." There's no sign that she was with Jubal at the secret FBI office, which suggests that there will be some kind of follow-up attack that successfully injuries the SAC. All this, not too long after FBI gave her a great excuse to quit!
Another interesting moment comes at about the 8-second mark of the preview, which shows Jubal and a woman in an FBI jacket crashing through a glass door. I initially thought that it might be Jubal tackling Maggie to the ground to save her from something, since the woman in the FBI jacket has dark hair pulled back into a ponytail, but in light of the episode description, I'm inclined to think that this is a double agent with her gun drawn with the intent to use it on Jubal... and she just happens to be a brunette with a ponytail.
For the full context of what's going down, fans will have to tune in to CBS on Tuesday, May 20 at 8 p.m. ET for the FBI Season 7 finale, followed by FBI: International at 9 p.m. ET and FBI: Most Wanted at 10 p.m. ET. After CBS' decision to cancel International and Most Wanted, the original series will be paired with CIA, starring Lucifer vet Tom Ellis, on Monday nights in the CBS fall 2025-2026 lineup.

FBI should conduct threat assessment of Epstein files: Schumer
Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (N.Y.) called on the FBI Tuesday to conduct a counterintelligence threat assessment of files connected to convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein in order to determine whether a foreign actor could use them against President Trump or other prominent Americans. 'Whatever may be in the Epstein files is clearly troubling enough that Donald Trump doesn't want to touch this issue with a ten-foot pole,' Schumer said on the floor. 'So it's natural to ask: what happens if America's adversaries use cyber-attacks or other means to access investigative materials into Jeffrey Epstein that are embarrassing – or worse – for President Trump and the people around him?' Schumer said 'What happens if Epstein materials end up in the hands of the Chinese government, or Russia, or North Korea?' he asked. Schumer argued that unless the Epstein files are released and made fully transparent to the public, they could become compromising material that foreign adversaries could use to 'blackmail someone like the president' or other senior leaders in government. Schumer wants the FBI to assess what risk would be posed if a foreign adversary were to gain access to information in the Epstein files. He is asking the FBI to determine if foreign intelligence agencies could gain access to the information in the files through 'cyber intrusion.' He also wants the FBI to identify any vulnerabilities that could be exploited by foreign intelligence, such as 'being able to gain leverage over Donald Trump, his family or other senior government officials.' And he's asking the nation's top law enforcement agency to 'publicly show they are developing mitigation strategies to counter these threats and safeguard our national security.' Trump said Monday at a press conference in Scotland that he ended his friendship with Epstein more than 20 years ago after 'he did something that was inappropriate.' The president said Epstein stole employees who were working for him at Mar-a-Lago. 'He hired help and I said, 'Don't ever do that again,'' Trump told reporters. 'He stole people that worked for me. I said, 'Don't ever do that again.' He did it again, and I threw him out of the place, persona non grata.' 'I threw him out and that was it. I'm glad I did, if you want to know the truth,' he said. Trump also said Monday that he turned down an invitation from Epstein to visit his private Caribbean Island. 'I never went to the island and Bill Clinton went there supposedly' several times, Trump said in Scotland. White House Communications Director Steven Cheung said last week that Trump 'kicked' Epstein out of his club years ago for 'being a creep.' Copyright 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.

FBI director: 45 arrests made overnight in DC
FBI Director Kash Patel early Thursday said 45 arrests were made in Washington, D.C., overnight after President Trump ramped up federal law enforcement presence in the nation's capital. 'The FBI and our partners made 45 arrests – 29 immigration-related, 16 tied to the violent crime surge, and 3 firearm seizures,' Patel wrote in a social media post. Patel said charges include possession of child sex abuse material, illegal firearms, drug trafficking, fugitive apprehensions and assault on a federal officer. One person was also arrested for allegedly throwing a sandwich at an officer Sunday, Patel said in a separate post. Sean Charles Dunn, 37, shouted at a group of U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents before hurling a sandwich at one, according to police. 'Why are you here? I don't want you in my city!' Dunn reportedly yelled. 'He took a Subway sandwich … and threw it at the officer. He thought it was funny,' U.S. Attorney for the District of Columbia Jeanine Pirro said in a video response to the incident. 'Well, he doesn't think it's funny today because we charged him with a felony, assault on a police officer, and we're going to back the police to the hilt. So there, stick your Subway sandwich somewhere else.' D.C. residents have protested the increased federal law enforcement presence in the District. However, Trump administration officials say people who cross the line will be prosecuted. Patel shared similar sentiments in Thursday's statement. 'Your FBI will make DC Safe Again,' Patel said.

FBI Warns iPhone And Android Users—Do Not Use These Codes
An 'impossible' to detect smartphone threat is now surging, with a new warning that more than 4 million attacks were observed 'in the first half of 2025 alone.' It's no surprise the FBI has a new warning for iPhone and Android users. We're talking QR codes, which Proofpoint warns 'burst on the scene in 2023' and are now being quickly 'adopted by threat actors as a way to remove the victim from the enterprise detection pipeline and bypass traditional URL scanning and filters.' The FBI has now issued a warning to all smartphone users that the latest such attack is taking hold, a change in tactics given all the headlines around unpaid toll, DMV motoring offenses and even the original favorite undelivered package texts. 'Criminals are sending unsolicited packages containing a QR code,' the bureau says, 'and once scanned, victims provide personal and financial information while unknowingly downloading malicious software that steals data from their phone.' Proofpoint warns 'it is impossible to tell if a QR code is a threat just by looking at it.' That makes 'these threats particularly dangerous,' with users now used to 'scanning QR codes with their phone cameras for everything from instructions to menus.' Just as with the FBI's latest advisory, these attacks are 'socially engineered to convince you to scan the code.' Once you do, you're 'redirected to a fraudulent website designed to steal sensitive data, such as login credentials, credit card numbers or personal data.' The FBI's advice is clear: 'Do not scan QR codes from unknown origins.' And while that includes this latest 'brushing' scam, with unsolicited packages delivered to your home with no sender details, it's more likely you'll be caught by a QR code in an email attachment or on a parking meter or even on a poster by the side of the street. The FBI says 'QR code scam has evolved much like all other scams,' and 'if you happen to scan a scammer's bad code, you could end up giving them access to your device.' Do that, the bureau says, and those attackers 'can access your contacts, download malware, or send you to a fake payment portal. Once there, you can inadvertently give them access to your banking and credit card accounts. If you make a payment through a bad QR code, it's difficult if not impossible to get those funds back.' Proofpoint says 'attacks that target people are all about hacking human nature,' and that's certainly the case with QR codes. In a world where your phone helpfully offers a link whenever it sees a code, without any of the link protection or warnings in other apps, it's easy to see why these attacks are surging. You have been warned.
