Oh JLC needs to die, I can't stand that smug look on her face when Gibbs asks her for info. Gibbs = her puppet.
AGAIN, another story with Dinozzo, Ziva,Gibbs. There are so many other stories that can be told with EVERYBODY in it. Get back to the good old days. MORE MCGEE AND ABBY!!~!

Right! NO MORE JLC !!! She's getting into Gibbs head and what is she going to do when she finds out about Mexico !!! That is if she doesnt already know, remember others beside his team know !! Dont trust the character... he was better with Colonel Mann... and Ziva better remember who saved her... Abby was the Perfect choice well done "Abbs"
The crux of the story is that the CIA is using missionary groups to collect blood samples from drug cartels. Are we supposed to think senior drug cartel members go to these free clinics for medical care? But of course the CIA did try to poison Castro so his beard would fall out so maybe not as so farfetched for the CIA to try. The last time I recall the CIA being shown in a positive light was Clayton Webb in the old JAG show.
At first I thought Gibbs and ryan were a good match but now i think it stinks. I don't think Gibbs fully trusts her. She's slimy and pushy. Her son is just a needless complication in their relationship. Abby was the perfect choice for best woman. The episode reached a conclusion much too quickly. Its seems that the last couple of shows should be 2 hours instead of 1 because the writers set up a really juicy scenario and then BAM! it's over. Not very satisfying and a little anti climatic.

Gibbs has no chemistry with Ryan. He has had plenty of chemistry with other females on this show, like Abigail Borin. Maybe JLC just is not the right person to play his love interest. Plus she seems to want to use him for info and constantly plays mind tricks with him, not a great basis for a relationship. I do like seeing Gibbs portrayed as lighter and less morose though, his little punch to McGee was sweet and funny.
Is it me or did Sean Murray actually look much healthier this week then in previous episodes? He looks like he is putting on more weight, which is good.
The Ziva part of the episode was okay. Monique seemed untrustworthy from the start. Can Ziva ever have any family or friends or love interests that are normal? Tony was perfect and funny. He is almost too good for Ziva. He was never dead weight. Her character really needs to grow up.
Abby as Jimmy's best woman? Hilarious. Loved it.

This episode just made me want to head slap Ziva. Could she be any more arrogant and unprofessional? Calling Tony dead weight -really? Was he dead weight when he saved her sorry ---- from Somalia? So tired of Ziva's nasty snark and then the writers throwing in lines that make Tony look like he just can't get enough of her. Does this nasty verbal abuse really pass as "tiva love"?
I don't mind JLC or her character. I do however think that the writers are trying to insert her too forcefully and too fast into the stories. But I'm all for Gibbs having this complicated relationship.
Thought Ziva's friend was as dull and emotionless as Ziva. The scene that popped the most for me was the chaplain and Tony on the balcony. MW always nails it.

I can't stand the storyline with Jimmy and his pathetic wedding. I can't separate JLC from her Activa ads. The agency battles were a little too subtle for me. So all in all, a very lame episode.

I personnel do not see any chemistry between ryan and gibbs and there is of course no trust because she did not share the info with him,she is too secretive, and keeps things from him and trust is everything to him i said it before i think JLC got to go, she is totally wrong for gibbs. JLC got to go.

Second -- I like Jamie Lee Curtis, and I like the character she plays here a lot more than I thought that I would after her first appearance. I think that her appearances in this story line were fine although the pizza bit was over the top. Come on! She makes Gibbs smile, and that is good to see.
Third -- This story put me in mind of some of the old J*A*G episodes, or some of the earlier NCIS ones, in being more involved with the actual Navy, rather than just using the Navy or Marines as an excuse for a generic action story. I would like to see more involvement with the services, and less soap opera, please. Why have they stopped going onto ships? Have they become persona non grata because of the soap opera schtick (drivel) they've been putting forth of late?

First -- Most of this season, I have been keeping an eye on Sean Murray (McGee), particularly the last five episodes. He never runs. He seldom walks. He occasionally stands, but he mostly sits, or leans over Abby's shoulder. It's lovely to have him there, but if there is something seriously wrong with that man's health, wouldn't it be better for him to rest and heal? The Director could do another one of his disgusting special assignments, and send McGee somewhere to do something no one else is smart enough to do. I worry about him.

boonies: Your point is well-taken that the fact that BOTH Gibbs and Ryan have similar jobs is an added strain. But if we are talking about trust regarding their jobs, once again, Gibbs was no more willing to share with her than she was with him. Oh, and why bash JLC? I never got the feeling in the five interviews I saw that she was "lobbying" to be a recurring character. What I saw was her responding to interviewers pointing out the ratings spikes on the previous two episodes she appeared in and asking her if she would be interested in a recurring character...

Nope, Beth...not buying it. Keeping work confidential when your spouse is totally not connected with it is one thing. But Gibbs is a member of a federal agency, not just a clueless "civilian" with no need to know. They were BOTH working on the same case! If she can't share with him under those conditions, then something's seriously wrong. She's just shady.

I'm sorry, but I can't stand Jamie Lee Curtis/Ryan, she's smarmy, too secretive and makes my skin crawl. I don't see the connection between her/Gibbs, and as for age-appropriate, she's such a bag of bones that it doesn't matter-eat a sandwich instead of poop yogurt, for God's sake! I have to change it every time she comes on-and I so hope she's off after tonight! It was a good epi when she wasn't on, but I am getting tired of story arcs that are so convoluted !

jessi: Your comment that "we did ok" isn't what you would want to hear from someone after spending the night suggests you may have missed some of the more subtle undertones here. I am sure that he wasn't referring to the quality of the sex, but, rather, that two damaged and weary people (both with emotional baggage) were able to share and be vulnerable and intimate with one another. If anything, it suggests that it is about a potential relationship rather than a simple roll in the hay. :-)

I think it is wonderful to see Gibbs with an age-appropriate woman with whom he shares chemistry. The fact that she is NOT a redhead and, thus, likely, not just meant to be a replacement for Shannon - and the way that Ryan smiled with no jealousy or malice when Gibbs referred to Shannon also liking the sunlight in the bedroom - says to me that the two of them have great potential for a realistic and fulfilling relationship.
boonie: The trust issue is two-sided; due to their jobs, there is always going to be intel that they cannot share with one another. Remember, Gibbs told her he couldn't divulge anything about the Columbia case, too. Trusting one another not to hurt each other (which they may or may not have, it's too soon to tell) is not the same as being able to share classified information. My aunt and uncle have been happily married going on 50 years, but my uncle, until his retirement, had a highly classified government position and could never share any details of his w
