"FBI: Most Wanted" has finally replaced Julian McMahon, with Dylan McDermott joining the series as an agent with a tragic backstory.
Hudgins teased: "I will say that the story with Remy and his brother, [as well as] an upcoming episode with his mother, that there's more to that story that informs Remy. There's also some interaction with other team members that deepens the relationship as they all get to know each other. So he's on a journey, and I love playing that, to have that in my toolbox every time I go out and do a case." Per Hudgins, the story of Scott's family continues to play out over the next few episodes. He's on a quest, and there's a dynamic inside of him that he's trying to figure out; his own psychology. As he introduced himself on the CBS show, Special Agent Remy Scott is a 23-year veteran of the FBI, whose recent roles included the Fugitive Task Force and the Philadelphia Violent Crimes division. It fuels me as an actor when I have that."

In that particular scene, I think what’s wonderful about it is that at the end of it, he says, ‘Okay. That’s enough of the sad stories.’ So…even though he is an open book in many ways, he likes to keep it light and fresh. I do some of my best acting in my bathtub, and so I had done some incredible performances that nobody ever gets to see, but I really was working on it.” So he’s on a journey, and I love playing that, to have that in my toolbox every time I go out and do a case.” So that’s a wonderful thing to play, because if I’m playing this character for years, I want to unveil who he is. I loved working on it, and it’s great that I had time to let it marinate over a couple weeks I had worked on it. He’s on a quest, and there’s a dynamic inside of him that he’s trying to figure out; his own psychology. “You never want to start a character when he knows everything. A key moment was telling someone he understood what it was like to want to believe in something, as he felt the same after his brother died. Scott knew the team was checking on his background, having spent years in the Las Vegas FBI office and is known as a good agent. While it was possible he’d been dead for some time, Remy believed the suspect murdered him after he was released. He vanished on a college trip in Fort Lauderdale with the police finding a likely suspect. After the case was wrapped up, the team went for drinks, where Scott opened up on his past.
While chilling out after a case, Remy delved into his past with the team, revealing that his brother Mikey was killed by a man named Larry Michael Davis. Larry ...
Here's what happened'. The fact that he's an open book about it I thought was also fresh." "I love that scene. "[Remy's] on a mission.
The team met their new leader, Remy Scott, who had a rough first day tracking a murder case leading to a dark cult.
She tried to say she was just saving a child, but Scott broke down her fraud and her planning to flee the country. Scott believed his brother was murdered when the suspect panicked and had the local FBI done their job, he’d still be alive. The Miami FBI brought in a likely suspect, but there wasn’t enough to hold him. The team tracked Pat/Vivian to a motel, arrested her, and rescued Lillie. Pat wanted Lillie’s child for her own as she couldn’t have any herself. Confronting her, Scott noted she was wearing a wire as it turned out she was Mel Montridge (Simone Stadler) an agent from, of all things, the IRS. Scott deduced Pat had brainwashed these people into believing her grift and was now getting rid of them while she ran with the cash. He said he’d “already done my part” as she waited in the car while he entered the house with a knife to approach the couple in bed. Pastor Bob entered to talk about Jeremy being a proud servant and “anointed.” Lillie realized too late she’d fallen into something serious as Bob locked them in. Ryan’s partner, Rich Summers (John Viscardi), explained the Joneses had hired them to look into a rehab clinic called Intentions that Lillie was supposed to be treated at but she came out looking worse. Remy was issuing orders while Hana and Gaines said Lillie had been a top student until a few months earlier. In New York, Remy Scott (Dylan McDermott) pulled up to a deli to pick up an order from the owner, who was an old friend. Remy was listening in before introducing himself to the team, complete with bagels.
