Thoughts on last night’s episode of NCIS:

(Also, hi! It’s been a while!)

1. It has been SO long since we’ve had a proper villain on this show, one stemming an entire story arc and making the audience hate them with all their being. La Grenouille, Harper Dearing, and Ilan Bodnar will always be the most iconic ones, but I’m hoping we get some good stuff out of “The Raven.” That “nevermore” bit gave me chills.

2. VICTORIAAAAAA!!!! She is PERFECT! How is she so grown?? I officially feel old. And we got to see Breena again

3. CAROL. What a queen, I absolutely loved seeing her again.

4. And finally, fatherly Nick is gonna put me in an early grave. The writers had better be going somewhere with this, the way the last few episodes have shown him CLEARLY missing something in his life. He was so cute with Victoria. I’m glad Palmer is okay, but I loved when Jimmy essentially asked Nick to take care of her if he died.

Bonus: I really love Parker. And Knight, honestly. Still feels different, but not terrible. This season’s storylines overall have been meh, but Brian Dietzen knocked it out of the park with this episode. He absolutely chose violence with all the angst, and I love him for it. He’d fit right in with our fanfiction community
