No! And didn't last week's end with the big reveal of the frankenwoman???? They found her! (Maybe that wasn't the end of the ep - i don't recall for sure.) I know the ATF told them to back off, but when has that stopped them.

Agree on all these counts. When Callen walked in it was played like he caught her cheating. which, whatever then, play it for a gag and move on. But it was soooo awkward. Although i very much enjoyed eager ATF boy going all hero-worship. Not gonna lie - thought he was dead for sure. Arkady has always amused me. I know he can be polarizing for some fans, but he cracks me up. I'm easy. LOVE Hidoko. Am ready to learn more about her backstory. But - am i the only one who thought there would be a continuation of last week's serial killer frankenstein?? I was so confused by the previouslies when it started that I thought i was watching the wrong episode!

me too! But sad we didn't see Gordon. I really liked this one. I liked that Bess totally couldn't wait to embarrass Jason at the ceremony. Sir CheatsAlot had that whole smarmy condescension down, didn't he?? as least he had the grace to apologize for the shot against Bess before Arm Candy called him out. I can't warm up to Kat. I don't know if it's because I miss Jay in the "get to the nitty gritty" negotations or if i'm still mad at her for leaving Grey's. But i'll admit she grated on me less this episode. I would like to see a callback at some point where the Secretary has to reign the two of them in, reminding them of the last time they screwed up. I need more Blake. AND AN UPDATE ON WAFFLES.

I'm just so sad this is gone forever. The dynamic of these three guys still crack me up. This episode in particular. I look forward to seeing each of them in their new endeavors. TK: "Yeah, so um, now that I'm in it ...? This is requiring a level of courage I do not yet possess." HA!

I was worried after Jane told Petra she loved her that Raf was going to accuse Jane of "oh so now you're telling everyone you love them!" so I was relieved when he didn't do that - and even his "Petra got a bigger I love you than I did" was somewhat jokey. I feel like even with that interchange and the Michael aspect, he still *believed* her that she loved him. Poor Alba. But I don't blame Jorge either. I will be soooo curious to see the family dynamic now that Alba will be living alone and Jane will not have her mom or grandma for backup. But she will also be living with her child's father so the split custody will be so much easier. I am also curious how this affects Mateo - that's the only real home he's ever had (or will remember, anyway). He may love having his parents in the same house, but he might miss the parent-specific time he gets with each of them. Yael is the best. <WHISPER> "I heard about those 4s!" ha! Also, it appears that all of Zoe Hart's formal shorts have gone to Miami to die.

This! LOL.

Good gravy - AGAIN with the "advanced age." we should all look so good at such an advanced age. March 21, 2018 ‘NCIS’ Season 15: Mark Harmon And Team To Bid Goodbye To Pauley Perrette Soon, Abby Sciuto Trapped In A Morgue Nica Virtudazo It remains unclear if fans should expect another installment after NCIS Season 15. CBS has not yet released any official statement about the future of the popular American police military procedural television series. Aside from Mark Harmon’s advanced age and allegedly complicated health, cancelation rumors continue to hound the show because of Pauley Perrette’s imminent departure. Devoted viewers of the series were shocked after Pauley Perrette announced her plans to leave after NCIS Season 15, CBS News reported. In October of 2016, the television star shared the news via Twitter. The 48-year-old American actress also clarified that there was no drama involved in her decision. She even denied the rumors stating that she has bad blood with the network and the management: In response to Pauley Perrette’s shocking revelation, CBS also released an official statement. The network emphasized how Pauley Perrette has become a valuable cast member of the series in the past 16 years. The network added that all the hard work of the NCIS actress would be treasured forever. “While it’s never easy saying goodbye to a beloved actress and character, we respect her decision to leave at the end of the season. We are grateful to Pauley for all her contributions to the series and making Abby one of the most unique characters on television.” NCIS Season 15 executive producers Frank Cardea and George Schenck also released a statement regarding Pauley Perrette’s decision to leave the series, Variety shared. The pair revealed that they are already planning for a “special sendoff” for her character, Abby Sciuto. Frank and George also expressed their gratefulness to the civil rights advocate for portraying Abby, who inspired millions of people around the globe for more than one and a half decades. “From day one, she has brought incredible passion and specificity to the role. Abby is a character that inspires millions of fans around the world, and all of us at ‘NCIS’ are appreciative of Pauley for portraying her.” Now that there are only a few episodes left before NCIS Season 15 finally comes to an end, it also means that Mark Harmon and the rest of the cast and crew would have a few days left to spend with Pauley Perrette. However, avid followers of the show remain clueless as to how Abby Sciuto will make her exit. CarterMatt suggested that Pauley’s character should not be killed or fired because the series is all about “optimism and heroism.” The news outlet added that Abby Sciuto’s good relationship with her bosses, associates, and friends should be highlighted before NCIS Season 15 ends. Most fans know that Pauley Perrette’s character is very friendly and understanding, which is why it is never hard for her to be loved by many. If possible, the entertainment portal also suggested that they should make Abby a hero. Meanwhile, CBS has dropped the teaser for the NCIS Season 15 Episode 18. In the promo, Abby Sciuto is seen lying down inside a morgue. While the character looked dead, CarterMatt shared that she might be doing an undercover mission.

I BUSTED out laughing at Torres: “McGee ... ... you’re smarter than that.” HA!! Oh no GH. This makes me sad for you.

So forgive my stupidity - who was the frankenwoman (sorry...) at the end? The ATF agent? the Chinese-diplomat-but-really-NSA-agent woman? someone else? I, too, love Alicia C. However, I am never able to separate her in my head from Christina Chang. That's a failing on my part. (CC played a REACT agent on the mothership and was also on CSI Miami and was a fave recurring character on 24.)

I, too, heart Skipp Sudduth. I hope we see more of his character. “Tell me the story again? She said ‘let’s get together before prom’ and you said ...” <gales of laughter>

Also, I meant to point out I liked Jimmy's callback: "That is three inches of hermetically-sealed bulletproof glass." "Really?" "Yeah. Changes were made after the sniper." "WHAT? What sniper?" "Doesn't matter."

I agree and am waiting until next week to see if she drops a diagnosis on them. (I didn't watch scenes, but am hoping she is still visiting next week since we didn't get any scenes with Tea and Kate.) Even Henry seemed surprised by some of her actions and conversation (ordering takeout, carrying her own suitcase, etc.) I'm with @kwnyc and want to see how this reshapes her resentments (I love this phrase and will be incorporating it into my daily life). Apparently when you have to pay Kate Burton, Christine Ebersole and Fredric Lehne, you can't pay Wallis or Sebastian. Boo. (not that I don't love those actors, but would have loved to see Stevie interact with her aunt, or Jay's input on the Burmese crisis.)

Agreed - especially because he would have 1. yelled at Jimmy and Bishop about the lab and 2. would have asked repeatedly where she was and if she was ok if senior was roaming about. In fact, no one seemed worried about her. I guess they could have assumed she got out. But in the past, she would have always been his first concern.

I enjoyed the <smoke billows> Bishop: "I think we're gonna have to change our strategy." Jimmy, all matter of fact: "We're gonna have to change our names."

we know that she has a son. that does not live with her and whose whereabouts are unknown. They throw in little clues each ep about her looking for him. This ep included her calling a school asking about enrollment. I don't recall if it was made clear if he was kidnapped, is missing, or was taken by a custodial guardian.

Rogelio is a national treasure: Who are you? I am your inner critic and I'm finally out, baby! I've been waiting 44 years to be set free, and, boy, have I got some things to saaaaaay! Okay, only 41 years. No! You're 44, you delusional half-wit!

all of this!! I love Noodle!

agreed. I love that Petra has grown enough to know - and want - to fix it.

This. this made me rewind because i was sure that wasn't what I had seen. And then i cackled like an old hen!

Buddy TV: How 'NCIS' Handled PTSD Perfectly in 'Handle with Care'

this made me batshit crazy. He's not that dumb.

TV Line, Feb 20 (ICYMI) Question: Have you heard anything yet about how Abby is leaving NCIS? —Jane Ausiello: Only that leading up to the end of her 15-season run, Pauley Perrette has aimed to scatter Easter eggs for longtime fans to find. “Her approach to [leaving] is to have fun with this,” Rocky Carroll told Matt Mitovich. “What she has been doing for her fans is make sprinkle in callbacks, certain Abby-isms, these little treats that the diehard NCIS fans will recognize. It’s her ‘farewell’ card to the audience, where people will see it and go, ‘Oh my god, that’s from Season 2, when this happened with Tony’ or ‘when this happened with Kate.’ She’s trying to take you on this treasure hunt, where every time you’re watching one of her scenes there’s a throwback to a previous season.”

I loved all of it. I love that Raf has always supported Jane's writing and always been her cheerleader. Petra is my fave, so I like that she flat out told Jane that she's the barometer of all things horrible. "If you're mad at me, then i know how far I strayed." I loved that Alt-Jane actually does have a mom with dementia and is being helped by Petra's transactional heart. I look forward to Petra/Jane writing duo, and lots of Jane/Raf sex. I, too, laughed out loud at the shameful gasp of "not Speidi!"

Oh, I don't think he took the shot so she could escape the emotion of killing someone - she's their sniper. I assumed he took it because he was pissed about all of it - Hoffman, kidnapping the girl, stupid henchmen - I took it that he was just pissed and wanted to shoot someone!

All of this, +1. I literally cheered when Adam shot him. “YESSSS!!!!” Then I rewound and watched it two more times. I will be very, very bummed if this doesn’t get renewed. I laughed out loud at both “I coulda kicked his ass” AND <cold cock> “you feel better now?!” Ha! Way to go Joseph! I also like how they portray Noah & Hannah’s friendship. Good friends, co-workers, no UST (well, Noah may have a slight crush). But it’s not interfering in their jobs. I thought the last scene was very well acted, and kudos to the actor who portrayed Captain Halsey, because he sure as shit convinced me he was ready to die along w 149 of his fellow sailors. I thought that was a great twist. Well, prob not a twist to everyone else who saw it coming, but I didn’t and thought it was prob spot on as to how a sub captain would react in a real situation. Who knew James Tupper had it in him to be a baddie?! Almost as good a villain as Mr. Schue last week on Grey’s!
