We finally got caught up on last season and saw this and then the season opener. I was completely surprised that the whole Tony-Jeanne plot thread was an operation. During the season I had been wondering a little how Tony could be spending so much time with her and doing things when he might otherwise be working. It makes sense now that he was doing it for the Director.

Hey Neil,

Gina and I actually speculated about it as the credits were rolling during the season finale -- "what if she's a mission?" And we worked through the whole, "his phone, badge, gun" left in the car thing too. But the ending surprised us. We firgured it was going to be continued. They faked us out with the last picture flash after the break.

I figure we might as well split off these 2 posts from last season's NCIS thread and start up a thread for season 5 since they deal with the wrap-up of the cliff-hanger from last season.

Thanks Patrick. Didn't even think of that.

I don''t know if I am imagining it but it seems that the 2nd ep starts a change in the show and its tone and pace slightly? Guess I will have to give it a few more eps to see whether Donald P Bellsarios forcing out of the show he created changes the tone of the show when its left to others. Hmm.

I missed the premiere, but caught the 2nd episode of the season. It will be interesting to see where this show goes this season.

I would agree that it felt a bit different than before, but I think it's just a couple episodes.

BTW...

Why, oh why, did they have the "has McGee lost his virginity" thread in last night's episode???

It was already established in an earlier season that he and Abby had "potentially" hooked up (we know he spent the night over at her place...or vice versa).

Even mature adults sometimes have good-natured ribbings of friends that spiral into the geek/virginity realm

Also, it's McGee, chances are he brought it on himself

Call me an NCIS fan-boy, but even bad episodes of NCIS (not that this was a bad ep at all) are still way better than some of the popular shows (like CSI).

This was a good episode all around, as it's always fun to see Gibbs getting harassed about "the ex-wives."

Ended with a really touching moment. Not many shows can make you actually care for characters like NCIS can. Poor Gibbs...

Gotta love Jenny.

"You can cut the charm, commander. Higher ranking, richer and definitely better-looking men have tried that on me and didn't get very far. Now I can't speak for you, but I did not get where I am because of my looks - so get your eyes off of me and put some on that ship."

Regards,

Joe
