Rookie Agent Michelle Vega is set to join Agents Dennis Abbott (Rockmond Dunbar), Kim Fischer (Emily Swallow), Kimball Cho (Tim Kang), Teresa Lisbon (Robin Tunney), and Jane (Simon Baker) in the field, and her rule-oriented mindset might cause a little friction among the ranks, according to TV Guide.
Vega is "a student of combat and weaponry" who is "unfazed by high-pressure situations," according to TV Line, which could be a good mix with Jane's highly unpredictable - and generally stress inducing plans - if it wasn't for her adherence to the rules. Considering Jane has the tendency to not just throw the rules out the window, but light them on fire for good measure, there is a high likelihood that Vega may find her new assignment a little less pleasurable than she may have hoped.
