NCIS: Los Angeles Gets Backstopped
Marine Staff Sgt. Nelson Marcos, a combat engineer specializing in demolitions, is driving on the freeway in an SUV when pursuers in a blue sedan remotely set off a car bomb, killing him. The Osp team investigates, but not before Agent Hunter (Claire Forlani) arbitrarily decides to partner Sam with Deeks and Callen with Kensi.
Hunter gave no reason for the shuffle, but again this week, most of the team respected her authority. Callen still didn’t trust her, but his mistrust was based only on a gut feeling. I had been looking forward to “Backstopped” for the character experiment it presented. I wondered what Deeks and Sam, Callen and Kensi might bring out of each other that their usual partners do not. As it turned out, neither new partnership revealed much of anything. The shuffle was played mostly for humor.
