NCIS: Origins Season 1, Episode 12 ‘Touchstones’ seems like it’s going to be the start of us getting answers about the case that started it all—and how that ties to a bigger conspiracy, as we learned in the midseason finale. But, almost as exciting, is the promise of Gibbs and Lala getting closer than ever, because yes at this point we’re drawn into their orbit, even against our best interests.
And hey, a lockdown? All the characters we like in a confined space, having to interact with each other? Sounds like our definition of a perfect episode. Especially because it promises more Vera because we 100% have not seen enough of her this season. The same goes for Mary Jo, honestly. Give both of them more to do, please, and thank you.
