Calista Flockhart

**Calista Flockhart** is an FBI officer in *Bad Boy*. She suspects Scott of being involved with the Jomas crime family.

## Background

Calista's family would always play it safe, with lots of rules. Because of that, the idea of a family of criminals intrigues her. ("Bad Boy on Probation")

Calista's favorite wine is a red wine, although the specific variety is not mentioned. ("Bad Boy on Probation")

For three years before season 1, Calista has been trying to track down Paul Jomas. ("Bad Boy on Probation")

Calista still has a relationship with her ex-boyfriend. Sometimes, she asks him if he wants to make mommy proud. ("Bad Boy on Probation")

## Season 1

Calista poses as Mack's probation officer, working for the City of Los Angeles. After he claims to be living with his dad, she makes a home visit. She is secretly there to get Paul Jomas to confess to a crime so that she can bring him in, but is disappointed to discover that "Paul" is actually Mack's Daddy Scott. ("Bad Boy on Probation")

Mack gives Calista a false lead that his dad might be in Palm Springs. This is meant as a joke, because Mack thinks she could use a tan. ("Bad Boy on Probation")

Calista poses as a ditzy lawyer and convinces Jim to have Scott write up a false statement, in an attempt to get leverage against him to admit he's actually Paul Jomas. Jim agrees, on the condition that they also go on a date together. The two of them come up with a story about how a shoplifter stole the necklace that she herself was wearing when talking to Scott. However, their attempt fails and Scott eventually realizes who she is. She then reveals herself to be an FBI agent investigating Scott and the death of Paul Jomas and Scott as she believes he has been made the new head of the Jomas Crime Family. ("Bad Boy Witness Report")
