Unfortunately I think HH is alive. I think Hetty sent her ahead to help the Team.

Her position is executive assistant to the EAD. She is there to help Mosely. She was not brought there to be an agent. She actually reports to Mosely. It was everyone constantly adks her "are you going to tell Mosely?"

Yes, that is how she introduced her self to the Team. She is Mosely's assistant. She also is a NCIS agent but her reason for being in LA is not as an agent. She is an assistant. I want her to do that job.

I saw at the wrap-up party someone said about being ready for S10. So I think it is a go, even through not official. I hope they rescue her son, allowing Mosely to leave and her loyalist.

Arkady is a treat! He was used smartly here. Eric was nice in the fields. He is growing but his expertise is in OPs. Tired of Mosely, sure her willingness was to get what she wants. I do hope the character leaves, and takes her assistant(who is never doing her job) goes with her!

There's where I know her too. If you ever watched GH her husband played Father Coates.

Katrina was poisoned to get to NR. That is why he showed up. Her death was because of him. Even at the funeral he regrets that he can't protect those he loves. She did not leave her husband. She left because it wasn't safe. She was a recruit. Alex asked the question of who stops talking,eating, as child. She showed how concerned of Jake's behavior. Something she felt unusual. So why do you bring strangers in your home. No high clearance does not show trustworthiness. Many people are duplicitous. I mean is that not the essence of spies? House is not a home.

Oh, I agree but TPTB wanted me to believe(see) they were a typical family. Everybody is close, and comfortable with each other. Especially Alex. To me this scene makes no sense. Agree about your feelings on AK. Have her transfered, far far away.

Having high clearance does not reveal character. Callen to Alex is a stranger. The man with him is too. Besides being the cause of your Mother's poisoning, leading to her death. Alex ought to be guarded with these people especially when her son is highly sensitive. Home ownership has never changed Callen. Years in the same place and he is still isn't comfortable enough to put roots down – little furniture. Years of friendship/brotherhood with Sam, Callen keeps a certain distance. What the writers have shown is people comfortable enough to have grandpa at home, a little kid playing with him, a daughter kissing her father goodbye, sharing coffee with her brother, and mentions of dinner. Acting as these people have known(open)each other for all their lives instead of months. That is what the writers wanted me to "see". Which is false.

I agree with you. I do not believe Callen will be this open to this person. This man keeps his secrets. Which makes since for the life he has lived,–does not lead to strong family bonds. He keeps his distance, so Callen has no reason to be close to him. Callen also is cautious, I think part of him expected it to all go wrong. Another reason not to believe the closeness. Not even with Alex. Alex confused me too. Why be so trusting, allowing strangers into your life? Her mother, herself and her son have been her world. Why let this old man, who is responsible for your Mother's death come stay at your house? So her mini angst of letting them in made no sense to me. I don't see any of these people being "Sunday family dinners" types. So all those moments felt false.
