Ooooh, this could very well be the 1 that'll set off a chain reaction of events that all boomerang to proving Hetty is not the evil villain of this show and lead to bringing her home!!

This was, without a doubt, the best episode of this Season so far!!

All the Hetty mentions here were awesome!! Callen knows deep down inside that there is something fishy about all this 'Hetty was possibly responsible in him being abused' junk, and he knows she is definitely innocent in it all! He still wants her at his wedding (definitely the kind of foreshadowing I love!), he still wants her to come home!!

Pembrooke is 100% the real monster in all this Subject mess. There is zero way Hetty would ever work for such a monster willingly unless she was tricked or framed, and we all know it deep down inside!!

The ball is rolling here to bring her home in time, I can feel it and I am on cloud 9 right now!! I'm so excited to see her again before this show ends!! (now if only a brand new pic would just be released soon)

While I believe there is more to the story. Assuming they can get it all out in time. But I am not sure Callen is totally believing Hetty is completely innocent. She definitely had her agenda going with how she treated him and others. From his very beginnings. I do believe she was partial to Callen than maybe many of the others.

But the show was supenseful. Finally, some Hetty mentions. I felt her story had gone dormant, so it's nice. Compared some of the others this season. Wish they would stop with the missing agents. I know it contract stuff, and budget stuff I am sure. But the show is ending now, so does it really matter.

Surprised Roundtree's girlfriend was resistant to having NCIS on the scene of her crime. Maybe she does not want to show any special treatment. But still surprised. Roundtree is really not a good liar LOL.

For all his time on the tree, I would think that skill would be needed.

But an excellent episode.

Felt for Kilbride. Nervous, worried about his trip. Good of Shyla not to cancel the trip. She knows he needs it.

Ganging up on Roundtree Poor him

Good way to prove Kilbride wasn't listening . Figures he still heard it, even if he didn't respond straight up

Sounds like Anna is making a few choices. Then Callen seems to not be able to actually ask Sam to be his best man

Hetty would send cryptic messages... I agree she may enjoy only doing that

Now it is clear why she sent the information. Nice there seems to be steps moving towards closure for this storyline

It didn't make sense that the Subjects found each other so made it less of a surprise that they were working with Penbrook or at least all together still

Have they been calling Roundtree "Tree" before this episode?
