B.A.

They gave away most of the ending when they showed the hand that grabbed Tony after he was unconscious.

Gibbs will be cranky until he gets that s.o.b. who shot him.

The best part of the show is Kate and Tony's interaction w/ each other.

meglet

Hmm, apparently I missed the hand. Wasn't watching with my glasses on.
Ya, Kate and Tony are a great part of the show. I really enjoy McGee's visits, too. Especially what they did to the poor guy at the end with the desk last night.

cdoug57

Hope McGee gets to be a regular. Kate and Tony's interchange about the piercing was very funny and Gibbs was in rare "see-all/know all" mode about anything in the office.

I am very ready for him to get the terrorist who shot him.

resinrats

I think Gibbs is after the terrorist more for invading NCIS and shooting Duckie's assistent.

meglet

Poor Tony, he's 0 for 3 and just keeps getting dumped on. The ending seemed a little contrived, but still a good episode.

mikehunt

I was thinking, so what if they don't have firing pins, those are easily replaceable parts and you're getting a nice belt fed machinegun for way under what it's worth
also, I'd be happy to get a SEMI-automatic MP5 for $500 not to mention a full auto.
Granted it was a set up, but those were great prices

Hope this was better than last week's aptly named episode "The Weak Link".

B.A.

I liked it. Even though you knew Gibbs was going to get his revenge no matter whose side Ari was on.


The younger daughter from Charles In Charge, Josie Davis, has a smoking body. Very nice.

Patman

Josie was the hamas jogger from hell?

The cat-n-mouse aspect of the last half of the season played out okay, though, didn't like seeing Kate getting slapped around.

Overall, one of the shows with so much good cast chemistry, even when the case of the week isn't as compelling.

Gibbs is going to come down with a lung ailment doing all that sanding without a mask or respirator in his basement. And we still don't know if he'll ever be able to get it out of the basement, right?

B.A.

Yes.

I love Sasha Alexander - I didn't like that either.

That's why I like the show, even if the cases are boring the cast is great and they do stupid, amusing shit all of the time. I think this cast is better than any of the casts on the CSIs.

I get a kick out of the running joke that is the boat in Gibbs' basement.

cdoug57

Overall, I thought this was a good episode to end the season with. All storylines ended well and no cliffhanger like "Jag". I really wanted this episode to be concluded.

I really enjoy watching all the characters interact. Ducky is so very funny, the look on his face when he found the second "right toe" was priceless.

Sorry to see Kate get the worst of it on her car ride.

Looking forward to next season.

meglet

Yeah, it sucked to see Kate get smacked around in the car, but it really set up how bad the other guys were, and provided a contrast from the way Ari treated her.

I really like the little Abby/McGee sideline story that is going on. Poor McGee, sleeping in a coffin. "You said it was a box sofa bed!"

B.A.

Abby and McGee have been cracking me up the last couple of eps, too.

"I can't believe I slept in a coffin."

"Well that's not the only thing you did."

Patman

"You weren't just sleeping..."

B.A.

That's what she said.

Patman

That was a creepy, disturbing case of women looking for love in the wrong place, and a guy willing to egg on their marital notions, but with a 1950's twist to them.

McGee and Tony's different approaches to understanding the female mind brought in a some good laughs, usually at Tony's expense.

B.A.

I haven't watched the ep yet, but when aren't the laughs at Tony's expense?

mikehunt

I liked the tunnel to the bunker at that one house
don't like what it was used for, but I'd like to have something like tat when I get a house

girlnextdoor

That was my first ep to see.
I was actually at my parents house and watched with them. My mother kept calling it "Navy CSI", I was pretty sure I never saw the word navy in the tilte, but did not correct her.
I am glad I watched it. I think I will record it for next week.

mikehunt

basically it is CSI with the Navy

Patman

"Lt. Jane Doe"

A present day crime that recalls a 10-year old unsolved cold case gets Ducky agitated and bent on solving the case because the cold case was the only case where Ducky could not provide an ID for the body, nor closure for the family of the victim.

Overally, good case, though the bad guy was sort of telegraphed early on. Did like the ending when Jethro explained to the killer why their plan didn't work. Classic!

Tony should change his name to Dibozo, but karma was kicking his butt in this episode.

B.A.

I loved it when McGee was re-wiring Abby's hot-box. The look on Gibbs's face when she said that was awesome.

Also like the fact that they made McGee a permanent part of the cast.

Funny show.

pilot

bah I just read this thread, not realizing I actually didn't watch last night and know the ending

Kal-El

Yeah I'm glad I started watching this show. The cast is tight and the chemistry between Kate and Tony's great.
