CIA Evil FBI Good is specifically about the juxtaposition of a morally good FBI organization and morally bad CIA organization. Example that don't fit the trope will be deleted or moved to existing tropes when applicable


* CIAEvilFBIGood: [[spoiler:Zigzagged. The CIA is both trying to protect Frost AND kill him at the same time, and the villains are all a number of agents within it that have decided that they can do whatever the hell they want to safeguard America... and their own asses.]]

** Frost forewarns Weston to be wary whenever any of his higher-ups tell him 'we'll take it from here', citing it as a sign that said higher-ups are planning to cut him loose and pin the fallout for events on him from his own experiences. [[spoiler:Hearing exactly this from Whitford after Frost successfully escapes him causes Weston to suffer a HeroicBSOD, knowing that he's screwed either way. In the end, he uses the same phrase as his parting shot against Whitford when the latter tries interrogating him if [[HaveYouToldAnyoneElse he'd found the intel Frost was trying to sell]], implicitly implying that Whitford was also incriminated by it. Whitford's expression as Weston leaves shows that he knows what the undertones of Weston's statement really meant, not having expected a NaiveNewcomer like him to be so perceptive]].
