Linderhill March 25, 2020 Share March 25, 2020 (edited) I may not have been paying enough attention but McGee said he graduated from Johns Hopkins, right? why was he flying there when Johns Hopkins is in Baltimore. It must have been his undergrad MIT class reunion although its funny that he mentions Hopkins. Of course I wasn't paying much attention and I really don't care. 🙄 I agree with Katy M, too much Jack drama. I really don't care about the character in the least. Maybe if it was in the least related to the main plot I would but, nope.

MorbidPet March 25, 2020 Share March 25, 2020 I only started watching NCIS again cause Maria Bello came on so I'm totally biased. I really like the character Sloane though. Bello usually does a great job even with bad material, not a rule but as I wrote usually. And I had to rewatch this episode to get the conclusion of the current case cause I got too involved with Sloane & Faith & rapist bastard to pay attention to anything else. Really far fetched from the current case but I'm not complaining. I thought it was great. I love how Vance is there for her and how it seems he knew. I liked that Sloane is honest and almost an open book about her rape. In her line of work it's important that it's out, and also in the military so you and your superiors may know your triggers. I get why she didn't want to disclose this to her daughter though. They just rekindled their relationsship and that's a hard thing to bare, knowing you were concived through rape. Faith was wonderful with it though. I hope we get to see Faith again soon. I usually have a problem with macho men wanting to save the honor of the woman or whatever but this is Gibbs character so it would be weird if he didn't want to know the rapists name and do whatever to him. As for pairing Sloane up with someone I kinda like status quo. The team gossiping and hinting to things, even if it's very unprofessional, is fun cause that's sorta NCIS in a nutshell. We learn a lot of the plot lines through office banter/gossip. It isn't necessarily the truth (tv-drama truth) but it can be if you want it to be or you can just ignore it. 1 Link to comment https://forums.primetimer.com/topic/107531-s17e18-schooled/#findComment-6023155

ForReal March 26, 2020 Share March 26, 2020 It drives me nuts when Gibbs asks the team members what they have, and they mumble and make up excuses and when he presses them further, they whine, "What are we supposed to DOOOO?" He used to get mad at the previous team(s) and they would jump to and start thinking harder on how to solve the case. These three just pout. I miss the good old days. I didn't feel like McGee's situation resolved itself very well. He didn't want to go, decided to go, mixed up the dates (which seems implausible), and is glad he didn't go because he would have been going for the wrong reason, which was what, exactly? To show people he wasn't ashamed of himself and his accomplishments? Because that's a bad thing? I know that reunions can bring out the insecurity in people, I get that, but sometimes you find that everyone has grown up and it's just interesting to compare notes with people.

SG11 April 8, 2020 Share April 8, 2020 I thought the fake school was an interesting scam. I thought looking for yet another excuse for yet another meetooo moment, complete with Jack intimidating the rapist with her gun and then cold cocking him with that awesome right hook, was dull and pandering. That wasn’t enough though, as the daughter could “tell” something was “off” and managed to know Jack was raped, because... she knew. C’mon.
