NCIS:LA 117

[katikat]

I loved Callen suffering in the driving school! And how everybody made fun of him! And the way Sam always slapped him on the shoulder - aww!

And Kensi, when she told them that they either take her with them or she would tell. Ha!

But the best part? Hetty! I loved the "A bit more 'oompf'" part and then her driving the little vehicle at the end - she was enjoying herself so much!

Hetty on a Segway... be afraid. It's almost as bad as Eric on the damn thing.

I seriously need to make an "I'm in 'ell" icon. That was the most *awesome* delivery. :)

I loved it when Callen asked the teacher if the doll shouldn't have a seat belt!

And now I have this weird bunny biting my ankle. A what-if scenario. What if someone in the driving school just snapped - no wonder there, really - pulled out a gun and started shooting. And Sam and Kensi, being on the job, wouldn't learn about it until they returned to the office where Hetty would tell them. And then they would race to the hospital and Callen would be shot and it would be protective!Sam going all "I'll never let you out of my sight again!" Uhm, yeah. Me and the protective urges of various characters. Ha!

I would totally read that fic. ;)

I second it :D I think the show does a wonderful job with protective!Sam without turning G into a woobie.

Those two remind me of John and Ronon. But thankfully, these writers decided to actually show that Sam's not only big and strong and can kick butt but he's also highly intelligent - it always irked me that the SGA writers made Ronon a dumb savage, totally burying the fact that in a deleted scene, they made him an artist.

I agree they could have done tons more with Ronon, though I disagree he was written as a dumb savage. His home world was very modern and he wasn't very people friendly, and preferred action to long explanations, but he was written as an eager solider. The first few eppys he was show more 'savage-like' but that was him learning to acclimate from being a runner to being around modern things again after seven years.

But of course they dd have to delete the one really cool scene about him being an artist.

What stands out in my mind is the scene in The Daedalus Variations where Ronon starts smashing the keyboard with his fists and Sheppard had to tell him "Stop that, Chewie, the keyboard is your friend" or something like that. That was rather caveman-ish :(

True. I'm not denying where the writing sunk low, (and some fanfic writers copy that mentally) but to a degree I enjoy Ronon's shoot things first ask questions later :D

Meant to add that I agree about Sam. The man was a SEAL, I'm glad they write him as very intelligent (he'd have to be) AND physically imposing.

I love it when Sam speaks Arabic. I don't know if it's correct or not, but it does sound cool :P

It was a good in between eppy. It felt like Chris wasn't around for shooting that week which is fine because I liked switching things up with Sam and Kensi and it had a lighter tone.

I love the show it seems like it has found its feet, but I hope by the end of the season or next season we get few eppys where G or both Sam and G go undercover for more than one eppy. I want to see deep cover, no contact with the outside world, without things wrapped up in 20 mins.

Don't want to see it all the time, but I hope there is talk about it.

The undercover thing would make a good finale cliffhanger. They go undercover and something goes wrong and they have to get on a plane with the bad guys and fly somewhere, losing contact with the rest of the team...
