Farewell Alana de la Garza: The star of the “FBI” series passes away at the age of 50 md20

FBI original cast member Zeeko Zaki addresses Special Agent OA Zidan and Gemma’s (Billions’ Comfort Clinton) relationship after the hijacking. Season 7, episode 14 “Hitched,” sees OA and Gemma travel to Niagara Falls for vacation but find themselves in a train hijacking situation. OA works with Maggie to safely get the two of them off of the speeding train.

In an interview with TVLine, Zaki talks about OA and Gemma’s relationship status after the intense incident. He shares that despite what happened, he believes the episode left OA and Gemma “in a great place“ and hopes that the incident will bond the couple. Check out what he said below:

I feel like we definitely left it off in a great place. I’m hoping that this experience makes us stronger, though I think it could go a lot of different ways. We’ll see what the writers are brewing.

When asked whether OA was planning to propose, Zaki believes that it’s still too early and feels that “there’s a lot more” for the couple to build up to that point. Read his comment below:

There’s definitely some room to imagine that, but I really feel that there’s a lot more that Gemma and I can build before we get to that point. We’ll see if this scares her off, we’ll see if this makes us stronger…. That’s not up to me, but I’m down and very excited to play both.

What This Means For OA & Gemma In FBI

The Train Hijack Likely Won’t Break The Couple

OA and Gemma became an item in FBI season 6 and have had their fair share of rockiness, but season 7 is expected to bring a change to the relationship with OA becoming more committed to Gemma. Previously, FBI showrunner Mike Weiss teased the two becoming closer in the season, potentially taking some big steps despite struggles and conflicts. He also shared that they have every intention to keep Gemma in the show. Zaki’s comment sheds some light on how the dangerous situation in season 7, episode 14 would serve to further bring the two closer together.

His comment also reveals that “Hitched” is only just the beginning of OA and Gemma’s arc in season 7. There is still a lot to explore, including how Gemma would react and how they each would come to a realization about their relationship after going through something intense together. While there has been speculation about OA and Maggie’s relationship, Zaki has previously reassured that nothing is going on other than a platonic relationship between the two. It seems that Gemma is a solid love interest for OA in season 7, and there’s currently no plan to break them apart.

Our Take On OA & Gemma’s Relationship In FBI

OA & Gemma Are Full Of Surprises

OA and Gemma’s relationship initially shocked many viewers, with the two being from different worlds. However, that also seems like the reason why their relationship is so interesting. OA and Gemma are a case of opposites attract. Things will never get boring between them, and there are so many nuances and conflicts to explore, with the two each bringing something different to the table.

It’s a good idea for FBI season 7 to further explore their dynamics, placing them in all kinds of situations. Though Zaki’s comment leaves a bit of room for where OA and Gemma stand after the hijack situation is resolved, the two would likely surprise viewers again with some new-found realizations. The situation might serve as a catalyst for the two to take the next step in their relationship.
