After a brief “Previously on…” about the Arkady/Anna – Oil Tanker storyline…
…we’re right in the middle of a heavy-armed, sighworthy-outfitted gunfight…
…which Karposev and Anna manage to flee off in his oh-so-subtle Porsche.
More gun fight means more thigh holster #ShallowMe… Oh and we learn that this is all taking place in Russia.
Absolutely LOVED this camera ride… Anybody else sat more upright to glimpse behind the monitor before the camera did ?? :-p
Karposev ran into a hit squad… Who wants to take him out ?? #MoreBaddies
Eric & Nell are “blind”… *gulp*
“No food, just loose tea, Scotch vodka. You must own this apartment.”
Only Hetty plays poker for whole apartments…
“I was the Queen of the Prom , sweetheart.”
“What?” “Just say Thank You.” “Because I’m ME.” “Swaaag.” These three being their usual awesome selves…
Dear TV/film writers around the world: Don’t ever write scenes in moving cars when you aren’t able to shoot them on location. EVER !! Please !!
Sam bear worrying about Callen being back in Moscow because of his family history… #Aww
Karposev’s dead… must have been Anna…
“You first.” HA, girl has sass… #LoveIt
Lil hand-to-hand with our G…
“I’m more of an acquaintance.” *snort*
She’s obviously NOT thrilled to see her daddy…
Tea. Hetty’s resolution of choice…
“That didn’t work out how I thought it would.” “Nah, but it was so fun to watch.” Sam cracking those one-liners today…
“You’re welcome.”
“You know nothing about me.” And yet, we found out a lot about Anna in this scene… 😉
Aww… nobody likes Arkady…
Arkady worked with G’s dad until 1988. G’s face. Oh my…
Vyto spent too much time with COD… he has the same finger rub thing going on… 😉
“You know I’m standing right here in the room.”
“He’s a member of ISIS.” Now that’s one unfortunately very up-to-date twist…
“If I play nice Hetty agreed to help me find a job in the states.” Welcome back in S7, Anna !! 🙂
Perfect look-alikes… hihi…
“Maybe he still is a good man.”
Honey bunny… 😉
Wow, so much can go wrong…
“I don’t sing.” Let’s see…
Hetty in full OP mode… #ILike
It actually worked…
“Trust is based on actions, not words.”
Great job, Nell !!
Kick-a** Kensi !!
KAAAAlinka… HI-LA-RI-OUS !!
WooHoo !! Eric found ’em…
“The room’s empty.” Argh…
Eric found them again…
Oh, no, no no no…
Sam offering to carry him… *gulp*
Arkady offering to stay behind to stall the police… *tears up*
You can almost “see” the thoughts rattling through Callen’s head right now.
“Arkady is alive.” THANK YOU, thank you, thank you !!
Eric found the ships… Case closed… Now onto more personal topics…
“I was married here.” “What?” Uhm, yeah… WHAAAT ??
Hetty telling Callen about his father…
Callen at his father’s grave… *tears up again*
Visiting his father’s favorite espresso bar before heading home…
And then he turns up… Callen’s father is alive !!
Wow, what an episode… it didn’t end with a regular cliffhanger like when one of the team member’s is in peril but it sure left me gaping at the screen… Only seconds ago I had shed tears with Callen about his father’s story – including his death… and now he is sitting there enjoying an espresso and playing with one of the refugee coins…
How is this possible ?? Was Hetty aware that Callen’s father is still alive ?? Would she feed him such a lie ?? Can they ever recover if he would find out ?? When / how / why will we see Callen’s dad again ?? I mean, Callen doesn’t have any motivation to keep searching for him… It would have to come from his father… Or from Arkady (who’s still alive – Thanks, @Harimoto! – and might run into him in Russia) ??
Apart from Callen’s story we had awesome gun fights, great conversations and hilarious one-liners… Every member of the team got to shine !! And that’s what I love about the show !! I hear you Densi fans being a little bummed after this ep… but I liked the few scenes they were in a lot… Eric, Nell and Granger were awesome back in OPS and I loved Hetty being out in the field…
OK, OK, enough pictures, enough words from me… Let’s hear it… What are your thoughts about this NCIS Los Angeles Season Finale ??
And THANK YOU my lovely readers for your loyalty througout the season… I hope you enjoyed my picture reviews as much as I did… I sure enjoy your comments !! See you all back in September for another awesome season of NCIS Los Angeles !!
