Spoilers ahead for 'FUBAR' Episode 7

LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: When we saw the first trailer for Arnold Schwarzenegger’s latest series ‘FUBAR’, we thought it was going to be a pure action series. However, it is much more than just a plain action-only show. It is about a father and his troubled relationship with his daughter. It also speaks to how CIA agents handle their love life. In the first few episodes, we realized that Luke (Schwarzenegger) never had time for his wife just because he was a CIA agent. The same thing seems to be happening with Emma (Monica Barbaro) and she is also facing a lot of problems in her love life.

Earlier in the season, Emma (Monica Barbaro) was in love with Carter, but she had some doubts because she wanted to continue her job as a CIA agent. Her father tells her to do what she loves the most. However, her feelings change and she says “yes” when Carter proposes to her. Over the period of six episodes, viewers see how her relationship with Carter changes, and there are a couple of reasons for that. First, her job doesn’t allow her to spend more time with Carter and because of Boro’s (Gabriel Luna) case, they are hardly around each other. Secondly, she might have feelings for someone else, and that someone else is Aldon.

Did Carter get to know about Emma kissing Aldon?

Emma and Aldon, who work together on the Boro case, get really close to each other and end up kissing. Carter never really knows about this infidelity and Emma lies to him when Carter asks her what is wrong. However, Emma’s father calls up Carter to tell him the truth about Emma and Aldon.

Carter meets Emma and confronts her about what happened. Carter says that he knows about the kiss and what happened between her and Aldon. As soon as he says that, Emma apologizes to Carter and says that she loves him and wants to marry him. However, Carter seems to be feeling really bad about the whole situation and says that he will love her forever, but won’t be able to trust her from now on. So, he breaks up with Emma and leaves.
