This Is What Happened To Isobel, An Unexpected Twist That No One Saw Coming

The finale of season 7 of FBI left viewers on the edge of their seats, confused and eager. As the special agent in charge, 'Isobel Castille' was shown collapsed after her mission, her pulse was missing, and the screen turned black. Fans were left in suspense, eagerly awaiting the Season 8 premiere to discover her fate. Well, the Season 8 premiere does see the loss of one team member of its own, but there’s a major twist.

Did the SAC Isobel actually die?

The start of the episode kept viewers in the dark about what happened to Isobel after last season’s shocking cliffhanger. ‘Jubal’ was staring at the empty office of ‘Isobel,’ where she had collapsed. When the assistant director was sitting in ‘Isobel’s chair and asked ‘Jubal’ how he was doing, but he could not answer, only stammered, “Well, you know, given the circumstances… I don’t know.”

‘Jubal,’ named special agent in charge and assistant director, kept his face straight and said what happened to ‘Isobel’ was “unthinkable,” without specifying her condition.  “The wheel is yours,” the assistant director declared, but 'Jubal' seemed somewhat unsure in his new position. Later, her husband, ‘Philip’, in a conversation with ‘Jubal’, said that the doctors think a brain bleed might be the reason she is not waking up, and they are preparing for her surgery.

So, ‘Isobel’ is alive, but her chances of making it are… Phillip couldn’t even finish that sentence when 'Jubal' replied that 'Isobel' has a long-standing tradition of defying the odds. 'Jubal' visits her, and she is now… fully awake and speaking! She asks how the team is, and he replies: “Been better.” Which means that she is not dead and will be in action soon, but then, who died? Read on to know and watch it on Amazon Prime Video. 

If not Isobel, then who met their fate?

When ‘Jubal’ visited ‘Isobel’ in the hospital, he talked about the team. He further added that when they were taking fire from a group of people who had declared martial law on their island and taken ‘OA’ and ‘Maggie’ hostage, ‘Dani’ collapsed as she was shot earlier, which she thought her vest had caught. When ‘Scola’ peeled back her vast, he saw that she was bleeding from her abdomen, and blood was all over. ‘Dani’ dies with ‘Scola’ by her side. He continued to hold her hand even when she died, lifeless, covered in white sheets. The unexpected death of 'Dani' had a profound impact on the team.

Will Claire Coffee join the cast in Episode 2?

We don’t want to spoil you anymore about the future episodes or ‘Claire’s’ role, but she is not planning to join the FBI anytime soon. 'Scola' is not going to close off when it comes to welcoming new partners. But his character has shown emotions well, even when he lost his friends and family. 

What happened to ‘Isobel’ in season 7 finale?

In the finale of season 7 of FBI, titled 'Ring of Fire,' 'Isobel' was in the middle of the most dangerous situation of her career. During a tense mission, she and her team were tracking down a violent group. The mission took a wrong turn quickly when the group launched an unexpected counterattack. ‘Isobel’ was caught in a massive explosion, and she was severely injured. At the episode's end, she was rushed to the hospital, unconscious and in critical condition, suffering from a serious head injury.
