I tell you I have this theory. It goes where, you're the one who's not my sister. Cuz mom adopted you from a shoe box full of baby howler monkeys, and never told you cuz it could hurt your delicate baby feelings.

I pray, pray, pray that that lawyer female is only going to be an opponent and doesn't morph into some twisted love interest for Gibbs. I don't think I've ever hated a character more at first meeting.

What did Colonel Bell do? I don't remember.

I gotta agree with that, Connie. I hated her at first words.

I remember Bell's face, but I can't remember what he did.

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

But if she becomes a love interest for Gibbs, that means she'll be killed off!

Tom makes a good point.

The "have you ever been a redhead" and "Maybe you were married to her" remarks were funny, though. At least Gibbs knows his weak spots--and falling for someone proven to be connected to an adversary is not one of them.

NCIS: LA wasn't as obnoxious as usual. It's so weird to see the two shows side-by-side, they have such different feels.

With that one sentence, you've managed to make me do a 180° and become a DiNozzo/Gibbs 'shipper.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

I still find it hard to move NCIS:LA above background status. But it's pleasant enough background. Though they seem to have backed off the G/Sam flirting a bit--they're using Kensi more out in the field and splitting the boys up. They also seem to be easing up on G's epic man pain.

The evil lawyer lady from NCIS worked for Wolfram, Hart, & someone else. Nice shoutout.

But if she becomes a love interest for Gibbs, that means she'll be killed off!

They only killed his first wife, IIRC. The wives he divorced and the army lady he dated for a while are still all alive.

Who played the attorney? She looked familiar but I couldn't tell if it was generic look or if I'd actually seen her in something.

Rena Sofer. Though she was kinda needed in Heroes this week, no?

Yes! But of course, they've forgotten that she existed.

Saw this on TWOP for who Bell is: "Bell was the head of the Blackwater type organziation that was after Franks' daughter in law in Outlaws and Inlaws. The episode ended with Damon turning of him and them arresting Bell on that dark road and sending him to Mexico for prosecution."
