"Covert Affairs" season 5 spoilers reveal that a new character in the form of a Navy SEAL will become a series regular and may even become Annie Walker's new love interest.

TV Line broke the season 5 spoiler of "Covert Affairs" who described "McQuaid" as a magnetic, handsome and charming special ops solder who turned private contractor/billionaire.

"The guy's got a questionable past, sure (don't we all?), but that won't keep him and Annie from striking an undeniable spark - one that could last all... season... long," wrote Matt Webb Mitovich for TV Line about the spoilers for "Covert Affairs" season 5.

"Covert Affairs" follows the story of Annie Walker (Piper Perabo), a CIA operative who was sent to work for Domestic Protection Division using the Smithsonian Museum as her cover. She is helped by August (Auggie) Anderson, who is a visually impaired tech expert.

The arrival of the former Navy SEAL could spell trouble between Annie Walker and Auggie Anderson (Christopher Gorham), said the Examiner.

"The couple definitely had trouble last season, and this new arrival could cause the pair even more trouble," Regina Avalos wrote.

Auggie Anderson could certainly hold his own against McQuaid, being a special forces soldier himself before losing his eyesight during an Iraq mission. He explained in one of the episodes that he went blind when a bomb he mistook to be a dead dog exploded.

During the Season 4 series finale of "Covert Affairs" entitled "Trompe le Monde," Annie Walker chased down Henry Wilcox and killed him after an intense showdown. She also faked her own death although the CIA later found out she's alive.

In an earlier interview with TV Line, executive producer Chris Ord said that both Annie Walker and Auggie Anderson really didn't know where their relationship is heading.

Ord also said for "Covert Affairs" season 5, "we need to really start asking those questions (about their relationship). And again, that's part of the fun of going forward into more seasons."
