The whole FBI agent saga is a total fantasy. Holes in every minute of the episode. If Abissa was caught abusing drugs, she would have to be arrested and be indicted for at least four felonies. Indictment makes it impossible to work for the FBI, whether a person was convicted or not. If she wasn't indicted or arrested, it means FBI is corrupt which doesn't correspond to her "stickler to the rules" image.
But it doesn't end there. During her "oh I had such a difficut life" monologue she says she "joined the FBI after 911". Niousha Noor is 36, her character must be somewhere in that time frame. 9/11 happened TWENTY TWO YEARS AGO. She was FOURTEEN. As much as they want to, FBI doesn't recruite 8-graders. One must have a bachelor degree and two years of work experience MINIMUM to work for the FBI. So it would be at least 10 years "after 9/11" when she could "go to mosques to root out radicals".
The whole "Te-Te" arrest and deportation is an unbelievable. Literally, I don't believe it. Arresting the nanny of a powerful New York attorney with connections they keep hinting at on a tip from a disgraced agent caught with drugs in her pocket... Even the FBI we know wouldn't do that. And no sane judge would deport an older woman with such a history. And then Abissa says she "has friends in ICE". And they would even pick up the phone after her drug arrest!? And those friends are more powerful than Mercer's connections? Not to mention Te-Te totally falls under Obama's DREAM executive order.
All-in-all, very "clickbait" writing with total disregard for facts, logic or common sense. This is my fourth episode, and this show is shaping up to be a total waste of time.
