Just finished episode 15. so and I did enjoy them. really good episodes. trying to watch the new one next weekend.

[florerr]

It's great that you're caught up!

I enjoyed the episode...

It was a bit unusual one... But it was fun to see (almost) everyone dressed up in '70-es fashion... It felt like a soap opera at parts..

At least we got a bit of Ellick during the re-imagining of the scenes... And I loved the "photo" at the exhibition too..

It was great to see Ducky again, and I also loved how Bishop assisted Palmer at some point with the examining of the body in the cemetery...

Lastly, Tony, Ziva & Tali are mentioned in the beginning of the ep... Dinozzo Sr. is with them too

[maplezbear]

I really enjoyed the episode. I liked that it seemed to have a little more mystery than normal.

Agreed with everything you said Hanna

It was nice Gibbs calling Palmer 'doc'

The Palmer hugs in the beginning was fun I am glad that they let us know that Tony, Ziva and Tali are together!

It was nice seeing Nick [Arturo] and Ellie [Annie] dance.

Nick has been tiring to get Ellie to dance with him quite some time. (Remember “Third Wheel,” Season #16 Episode #04, October 16, 2018.)

[nuwanda]

liked the episode too.

at first I thought it was kind of ridiculous to see bishop and nick playing the "old" couple, but after I saw that everyone of the team had to play a role I really thought it was fun.
and it is nice that the writers let us know about ziva, tali and the dinozzos.
also liked that ducky had a bit more screen time in this ep.

What a lovely enjoyable episode! Interesting mystery with a sweet story. It was nice to see Ducky again.

I loved the flashbacks with the team playing the roles of Art, Annie, Spencer etc. That was a lot of fun.

Palmer with the hugs It was nice to have a message from Dinozzo sr and that he's with Tony, Ziva and Tali!

[shinebrighterxx]

Everyone got a personalised note from Sr? That's nice . I like how Gibbs gave Palmer a hug for Sr's hug since he's a terrible liar

This episode looks like its full of notes being passed around or kept

That is one expensive & rare coin

I like how they're telling this with Ducky setting up the flashbacks, telling them all to imagine themselves as someone else. It seems a nice touch & different to what they've done before (but of course I know some of what will happen later in the episode which makes that conversation more meaningful possibly)

Poor Palmer sounds terrible to watch someone slowly die like that

wow so mean to say 'Art' wasn't good enough for Annie not a huge surprise that people would feel that way, but still heartbreaking to see

also sad if there's living family members or at least the brother & yet no one had been into the cemetery crypt thing in years? Did he never go pay respect to his lost loved ones? or just never go in & only do it on the outside? But then wouldn't you want the cobwebs cleared?

oh sweet that the father changed his mind, but such a shame it was too late

snot stealing that's one way to get DNA

Not surprised Annie gave Art the coin & he hadn't taken it. Sneaky how the Aunt ended up being partly responsible & handed the coin back too so Art would still have something as well as all the letters for Annie

[florerr]

Good point about the crypt... I guess the brother never cared enough about Annie to visit her (or be guilty...)

Snot stealing... (Almost as good as Deeks collecting someone's cigarette butts in one of the LA episodes I've watched recently... )

[shinebrighterxx]

Or the rest of his family though? Then what about the aunt? She seemed to care about Annie... but I guess if she's in a wheelchair it may be hard for her to get there now
