Maggie has worked with Scola in at least two episodes of FBI. She is paired up with him again in FBI season 7, episode 15, titled “Acolyte,”which OA doesn’t appear in. Maggie doesn’t always work closely with Scola even when they are partnered up — in “Acolyte” she has the bulk of her scenes alone because she’s trying to get info out of an imprisoned suspect who is obsessed with her. That said, Maggie’s partnership with Scola is likely due to several FBI season 7 cast changes.

Maggie Has Been Partnered With Scola More Frequently In FBI Season 7 Trend Explained

She Is Often Paired With Scola When OA Isn’t Available

Maggie and Scola’s new partnership is due in part to the cast rotation policy for FBI season 7. In order to save money, FBI rotates the characters that are featured in each episode rather than using all characters in every story. As a result, there are some stories in which OA is not present. When this happens, Maggie is usually paired with Scola, often without any on-screen explanation. This was the case in FBI season 7, episode 15 — although OA likely needed time off after his train hijacking ordeal in FBI season 7, episode 14, this was never explicitly mentioned.
