Did ‘FBI’ Just Introduce New Love Interest for Maggie?

Did FBI just introduce a new love interest for Maggie (Missy Peregrym)? It certainly feels like that’s a strong possibility.

The Season 7 Episode 12 case saw Maggie connect with a dispatcher who reached out after a young girl called looking for her; the agent had chased after her and her kidnapper in the team’s attempt to take down a trafficking ring. The episode was then spent trying to rescue her (fortunately, there was a semi-happy ending, though the girl’s sister was killed). During the investigation, the dispatcher, Joel, called Maggie at one point for an update, and Scola (John Boyd), who heard on speaker as he offered to help, commented on it. “Friend of yours?” he asked. That was the first sign that this might not just be colleagues working together on a case.
