Joan (Deception)

Joan (Jess Weixler) is a villainess from "Escapology," episode 1.03 of Deception (airdate March 25, 2018). She is a docent at an art museum, and she was introduced as a hostage in an attempt to bomb the museum.
FBI Agents Kay Daniels and Mike Alvarez were on the case, with the pair working with illusionist Cameron Black to save Joan. Cameron and Joan later struck a conversation during the plan, which was successful for the most part; Joan was saved, but Kay's rush to save one of the paintings led to the bomb setting off an explosive that resulted in Joan's hospitalization. Cameron later met Joan after she was released; meanwhile, Kay's examination revealed that the painting that she rescued was a fake and was swapped, while the scare was a front for the heist of the genuine article. After Kay and Alvarez find the bomber shot to death, and the latter notices a missed call on his phone, they call it--with Joan answering and revealing herself as a villainous conspirator. 
Cameron is informed of this by Kay, and he stalls until FBI arrives, only for the men in suits to be henchmen for the mastermind, later revealed as Charlie Dietrich. As Cameron and Joan were trapped in the trunk of the moving car, the villainous latter revealed her role. Joan had connected with someone online who was looking for anyone who knew about art and loved adventure, and since Joan was looking for excitement in her life, she jumped at the chance. The person she connected to was Charlie, and under his instruction, Joan posed as a hostage in the bomb scare, while switching the planned painting with a copy. She was expected to be paid a share of the profits, but when the plan went sideways, Charlie killed the bomber, and Joan was next to be killed, but she was rescued by Cameron. Following Charlie's reveal as the mastermind, the evil Joan ended up arrested for her role in the theft.
