The fact that when the killer (presumably Bobby) held up that reciprocating saw to the Lieutenant Commanders leg, it reminded me a little too much of Ferris and Kensi (same type of saw in fact).

Anne, the big bad guy said that one of his men recognized the ATF agent as a Dade County Sheriff from 10 years prior. I dont own anything. Now when we know that Mosley is looking for her son, I am inclined to think that she is not in LA to dismantle the team, but to use them to find and bring her son back. New foster parents Kensi and Deeks are heading in different directions. The NCIS spinoff, starring LL Cool J and Chris ODonnell, is tied as the fifth longest-running CBS primetime scripted series ever, only behind Gunsmoke, Lassie, CSI and Criminal Minds. I appreciated the way they stopped short of the bullpen to have this little personal talk/disagreement, and how Deeks looked around to make sure no one was nearby at one point before continuing. It's not like he could resent her more than he does amid his current state of mind. I had to freeze frame it just to soak in all his Deekness!

The best? Sean Murray and Katrina Law in a scene as part of the 19th season finale of CBS' 'NCIS'. Every one that Ive had the pleasure to see is simply stunning. After watching the entire episode, I realized I hadnt missed a thing. Having said all that I Must say this is the first episode Ive truly enjoyed all season. When Mosley realized her control was slipping and that Hidoko wasnt as loyal as shed hoped/thought/planned, she very clearly put her back in her place (i.e.,I brought you here, I can send you away again too). I think she recognizes the position she is in and is choosing to side with Mosley because her job is more important to her than having done the right thing in Warriors of Peace. I do think the reason she behaved this way toward Deeks is because she is trying not to connect with them any further than she already has, and perhaps to sever whatever connections shes already made.
