Start high. They will work you down. Say $100-$125 am hour. They will work you down to anywhere between $75-$90. And ask about overtime from the beginning, some agencies will cut you off at 40 hrs a week. Ask what their rules are Bc that's where the real money comes in (Bc we all know no one in adv works 9-5)
(I was an ACD CW before a strategist )

Agree with Strat1. Another thing is that fcb ny is known for being a bit cheap to its employees and freelancers.

Do they at least pay overtime?

They paid overtime last time I worked there (at least 6 yrs ago)

I had an ACD freelance gig at an FCB shop...100/hr was their rate. No opportunity to negotiate.
