In Episode 7 of “Quantico” titled “Go,” the NATs have midterm examinations. The new FBI recruits are given an explosive assignment, which most of the recruits are unable to qualify; as a result some leave the prestigious academy. Also, in the drama’s present timeline, Ryan Booth (Jake McLaughlin) is shot, again.

Ryan gets shot

There is a raid by FBI on the twins Nimah and Raina’s (Yasmine al Massri) house, but Alex (Priyanka Chopra) and Ryan escape from the back. A terrorist group which is hiding across the street starts firing and Ryan gets shot at. Meanwhile, in a shocking development, Natalie Vasquez (Anabelle Acosta) allows Alex and Ryan to escape.

Alex and Simon trace Raina

In the flash forward timeline, Alex continues to try and clear her name. She tries to find the twins, as one of them is pictured just before the bombing at the Grand Central Terminal. When she and Simon Asher (Tate Ellington) are able to trace Raina, she says that she has not heard from Nimah since days. They have infiltrated a terrorist group in Queens, TV Line reported.

NATs undergo explosive assignment

Its exam time at Quantico. The NATs get a sheet of blank paper and a pencil while Miranda Shaw (Aunjanue Ellis) tells them that their exam has begun. The new FBI recruits find themselves in a dangerous situation, which is their explosive assignment for the week. Elias Harper (Rick Cosnett) discovers a timer below Brandon Fletcher’s (Jacob Artist) chair after he has fled from the room. Alex figures out that the exercise is a part of their test. Simon, Alex, Shelby, Ryan, Raina and Caleb stick around.
