It sounds like its a continuation from the previous ep from what I read? But yeah Fornell is meant to be in this one too

last one ended "to be continued", but i didn't think of fornell being in there again - although i just watched the last ep two days ago - finally

[shinebrighterxx]

Interesting if it didn't seem like he'd be in it again. Nice that he'll be in both though

You say finally but its still a while off from airing here so I think by the time I see it really that'll be finally

1. the case is not closed yet, so actually it is just natural that he will be in it. it is more that i didn't think about it.

2. that is true.

but i guess you will watch it as soon as it airs. i got the ep one day after it aired and i watched it two days ago

This was a good ep! Glad we got closure on that storyline.

Glad Jac was ok and didn't end up getting hurt worse than what she did.

I was worried about Fornell there for a bit! But glad that Gibbs was able to get to him in time. Gibbs tasering Hicks

Even though Tripp is crazy, it was fun seeing him out and having him staying with McGee So funny how he was joking with McGee about another body when there wasn't. I like how in the end, McGee ended up spilling otu everything about the babies to him once he guessed that McGee had kids. The ending with them was hilarious too McGee and Tripp BFFs

Sounds like Gibbs has an out now once NCIS is done. Nice that Fornell told Gibbs he could join him in his PI business.

Sounds like a good episode

I actually can't watch it as it airs here because its on too late now so I tape & watch during the week. Earlier seasons I would've jumped on but this season at least last week & this week since the day/time change I haven't. It aired Sunday & its now Wednesday & I haven't watched it yet (I'll probably watch it tonight though)

good to know that there are people out there who are much worse than me

[nuwanda]

good ep.
gibbs and fornell almost like in the "good old days".
glad they finally got the guy back behind bars.



but...sometimes i think the writers seem to have some kind of "blackout". i mean really? someones knocking at mcgees appartment door. when he opens there is nobody there and he stepped out of it? really? without looking? without drawing his gun? having a killer in his appartment who more or less just told him that the plan was not to return to prison? come on. that was really bad and i hope we won't see this again.

I completely agree with this! I couldn't believe that McGee did this and that the writers actually wrote McGee to be a bit stupid in that scene. I mean I know they had to have some way to get Hicks inside the apartment, but come on. To have a trained agent make that many mistakes in a few seconds... just no.

[shinebrighterxx]

how are none of the others in the coffee shop affected by what was going on? There's a guy serving being arrested in front of you & you just ignore it?

what is with all these connections to other cases? I guess its better than random new characters, adds more interest & annoyance at least for McGee

clever Gibbs & Fornell planting the tracking device

omg the requests

umm question - did Tony have a two bedroom apartment? I didn't think he did. So in that case how does McGee, Delilah, Johnny, & Morgan all live in that apartment? I know they're tiny babies now, but they're going to get bigger... they're going to need at least 2 bedrooms, if not 3. Even if McGee/they made changes to the apartment, he at least made sure it was wheelchair friendly, I doubt they added two more bedrooms. Another point - where's Kate & Ziva the fish? I thought they went with the apartment...

of course Fornell is in danger

omg then completely agree with what was said about McGee . He's the Senior Field Agent not a Probie anymore. Why would he make a stupid mistake like that? Really Reeves could've called Bishop for an update, he didn't have to go back to headquarters & leave McGee alone with a known killer. I suspect we're meant to believe that McGee presumed it was Reeves coming back but they would've had a system to know who it is so they could safely open the door. It doesn't make sense at all. There's no way any of the team could've known that they'd all end up there to have planned it. Its just a stupid move on the writers part as both Reeves & McGee should've been smarter than that & known better

Surprised Fornell didn't go back to the FBI but he must be happy being a PI

Love Fornell's bill!
