The Rookie: Feds
She appeared as Antoinette Benneteau, an FBI Laboratory Technician and Forensic Biologist, Brendon’s love interest in the American police procedural crime drama television series The Rookie: Feds. Nolan and Lucy attend to a call about a suspicious guy near a power station, which they soon discover has a bomb inside. They flee before it detonates. When it is suspected that the bomber is a member of a terrorist cell, the FBI’s Los Angeles division is notified. When the FBI discovers that the suspect, Zeke Freemont, has a link to trainee Simone Clark, they call her in to help, but she is quickly dismissed. Nolan encourages her to advocate for herself, and they have a common experience as the oldest trainees. Garza, the lead agent, summons her in to question Freemont because he only wants to speak with her.
He admits that he produced bombs for the aircraft but had no idea what they were for. Lopez and Harper investigate a rumored break-in at a professor’s home and, with Simone’s assistance, learn that it was the same suspect as the bombing, Trevor Gurin, who is later discovered as having a classified connection to Groom Lake. Garza reluctantly accepts Simone into his team. They assume Trevor was a former military member based on map evidence at the suspect’s house and the codeword “Enervo”. He obtains additional bombs from the National Guard’s armament storage and launches his plot to destroy the city’s infrastructure, beginning with the highways.
