Happy Valentine’s Day to my NCISLA family! We get a honey of an episode from the same players that brought us The Job (one of my favorite episodes!). Written by Frank Military and directed by Terrance O’Hara, the team is after a chameleon –like killer who has been able to slip through the hands of multi law enforcement agents by brilliantly changing personas and skipping town. Callen was one of those law enforcement agents trying to track the chameleon down and with Granger breathing down the team’s collective necks; they are tasked to bring this criminal to justice.
Looks like Granger is blaming Callen on this one and if that isn’t bad enough, the guy is stalking the NCIS team. The Chameleon (Where have you been lately Christopher Lambert?) has broken out of prison and Callen has taken it on himself to catch him. Granger is going to be sure to hold his feet to the fire until he does. Callen knows he’s missing something but with Sam he figures out how the Chameleon has been fooling the authorities but they have no idea what he looks like because he can assume so many accents and identities. Callen admits he’s the best he’s ever seen.
The club scene has the team running in circles when the Chameleon sets them up with another ruse. (One of the best team undercover missions this season.) Now the Interpol agent is dead and Granger is blaming Callen. Granger is wonderful when he’s throwing his weight around and I had to laugh at Eric and Nell having to raise their hands to talk. LOL! Yes, Mr. Granger. The team can run itself if you trust them. Gotta love Hetty.
No surprise that our Chameleon will make a return visit some day. Callen is not off the hook just yet….looks like we’ll be seeing him again. This season perhaps? Do I smell a season finale appearance?
Great to hear Granger admits that the special ops team is the best in the business but oh boy, what a set up for next week’s episode! Can’t wait for Blye, K. Get ready for Joey Wilson’s roller coaster ride, friends!
Best Lines of the Show:
Callen: Real men drink coffee not fruit smoothies
Eric: Ah you guys, this brings back memories of tea and cookies with gammy!
Kensi: So are you into colonics? (I got to remember that line!)
Highlights of the Show:
• I always get warm and fuzzy when Hetty is protecting her people, especially against Granger and it looks like that’s her main jobs these days:
Hetty: He doesn’t need defending, but if you are trying to take down my team you will be. Go get him Hetty!
• Kensi’s tats are spectacular. No wonder Sam tells Callen the car doesn’t look that good when he drives it!
• Hetty gets to tell Granger he blew it. Perfect moment ending with a wonderful Deeks smile!
Deeks Moments:
• Loved Kensi trying to make The Woody smoothie and Deeks almost choking on the stems:
Deeks: You realize I could have choked to death?
Callen: On the Woody?
Sam: I always figured Deeks would go out like that.
Deeks: Wow, I’m really feeling the love this morning.
• Oh, Deeks you were so cool when Callen asked you to contact the LAPD. You were right on that even before he could finish….very smooth!
• Deeks has strange tastes in women (other than Kensi) but you have to admit it leads to some funny moments. His scene with Erin was hysterical.
o Erin: I hope you get paralyzed in a car accident
o Deeks: You’re still obviously crazy. I’ll call you….probably not. (Oh, Deeks you’re wonderful!) ;D
Densi Watch:
Frank Military always writes some great Densi moments and this one doesn’t disappoint:
Deeks: You are good at scaring him off.
Kensi: That’s too bad I liked him.
Deeks: Really? How can you fall for that? There’s obviously just one thing on that guys mind.
Sam: How’s that any different from somebody say like you Deeks?
Deeks: Well first off I would have been successful.
Kensi: In picking me up?
Deeks: Ah huh. Right now we would be in the car ride now heading home, sitting in my lap, telling me I’m going to wake up with bite marks on my neck.
Sam: Too much information!
Deeks: Besides from the fact that you are not my type.
Kensi: I am too your type! (Whoops! Kensi reveals all in those eyes!)
Deeks: I’m sorry, what? Can we just get confirmation that we just heard that?
Kensi: I did not mean that and you know it.
Sam: I heard itl
Callen: I heard it too!
Deeks: Are we recording this because I would love to use that as my ring tone.
Ok, it’s out there and we all heard it! Kensi finally admits that Deeks is her type! Whoo Hooo!
It’s your turn ladies and gents. There were a lot more great lines and highlights. So add them to this review and let me know your thoughts…. Lynn?
Thank you Jacqniv for my favorite ECO picture ever taken during the time of this episode shoot. Brilliant!
