It was not the FBI, it was Elliot Ness (et al) who worked for the US Treasury. The functions of federal firearms and alcohol (formerly prohibition) enforcement later transitioned to become todays Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms & Exploives (ATF) which moved from the Treasury to Department of Justice in 2004. Later at the end of his career Ness did work for the FBI, but not in the Capone time period.
The man credited with arresting Al Capone was federal agent Eliot Ness. Ness led a team known as the "Untouchables," who were tasked with enforcing Prohibition laws and ultimately targeting Capone's illegal activities, particularly his bootlegging operations. While Capone was eventually convicted for tax evasion, Ness played a significant role in disrupting Capone's criminal empire.

Because he's fighting evil.
You might say a woman was more interested in "harpy-ness" (acting like a Harpy) than "happiness", or say that when Elliot Ness was upset he was not a very happy Ness.
