Honestly I blame American TV for this. Especially anything involving the FBI! In Hannibal they zip between states non stop like it's nothing. I assume it's all supposed to be happening over many days, but it just seems like they're going to and from work in Minnesota and home in Virginia lol

The thing about TV is they have a tendency to broadcast a lot of "fiction."

Also you can do that, especially if you have the FBI paying for your flights, and rental cars, and TSA Clear (if FBI agents even need that). It's only 2 1/2 hr by plane from VA-MN, though without TSA Clear or the "I'm a goddamn FBI agent on duty" equivalent the airport will be a bitch, and hopefully it's a direct flight.

It’s also much easier to do on the east coast, where you’re always within farting distance of at least two other states. The northeast is so tiny that you can absolutely just “pop over” to another state. This is especially true in the DC area, where lots of political/FBI dramas tend to be focused.
