The Bureau

At a homey, Southern coffeeshop, the agents hop into high seats and chat about Brazilian butt lifts. Then, Corny asks for help dealing with an investigation into the Nature's Sunshine vaccine, which Kettle got (along with some of the side effects). That leads the agents to a scary question: will they be prosecuted for crimes committed while undercover? Kettle shares his experience being sent to Rikers after his last undercover mission, and the others apologize for not visiting.  Bobby then updates the agents on Sw33tgr33n, and they sidebar without him to confer about his amnesia/denial. At a loss for how to help him, the agents give Bobby a little hug, and then carry him back to the office.

At an unusually pretentious Caribou Coffee, the agents have to barter for regional coffee from Gardenia, the barista; luckily Corny, has Nature's Sunshine butt spray to trade. Once they're settled, Bobby fields a call on Tony's phone from someone demanding money. Kettle shares the logistical struggles of coordinating a disaster between the two BLMs. Casino reveals that she said "oui" to Chef Luc's proposal, but found something disturbing in his bathtub. Also, Tony seems to be using Bobby's badge to steal drugs, keeping Bobby out of the action with a ruse. Last, Gardenia returns to complain about the spray.

The agents meet at Starbucks this week to discuss their undercover operations. The gang helps Casino figure out Chef Luc's modus operandi, and yet Casino is reluctant to wrap up her inquiry. Kettle admits that he's fitting in more with the Blue Lives Matter group than with the Black Lives Matter group, prompting a thoughtful discussion of race and identity. The gang also cautions Bobby not to get in too deep with his boss Tony, who's been taking drastic steps that may be connected to open criminal cases. Meanwhile, Corny is dealing with recalled products from Nature's Sunshine, including cashew milk and contact lens solution.

It's season 5, and the agents are running undercover operations! To discuss their progress in secret, they meet at Phil's Coffee rather than at the FBI.

Bobby is working undercover at a legal THC shop, Sw33tGr33n, where he's become indispensable to Tony, who is a sweet guy. Kettle is working as a double agent by going undercover at Black Lives Matter and Blue Lives Matter, with a little wardrobe help from his friends.  And Corny is undercover at Nature's Sunshine Products Group, which sells body wash and candles.

During the final episode of season 8, Kettle rats on Casino, prompting a discussion of Corny's approach to drug testing, which involves copious amounts of urine. The agents also learn some unsettling things about Dex as Corny rifles through Dex's desk and laptop. And while Bobby didn't get the monopoly-busting position that he'd applied for, he gets a case to solve by the end of the episode!

With Dex out on paternity leave, the agents welcome a new member to the team: bagel-deliveryman-turned-FBI-agent Bobby Kendall! He may have failed the test multiple times, but he prevailed, and now has an FBI fob that he keeps in his Kill Bill wallet. And with Dex out on leave, Corny is the Acting Head of Human Resources. Casino gives an update on the Britney case, revealing that both she and Britney have crushes on someone named Jason. And, lastly, we learn that Corny has a lot of sex, and that Kettle has two bachelor pads (one with a futon).
