‘NCIS’ season 12 spoilers: More episode title scoop!

Sometimes with “NCIS,” you can find out quite a bit in just looking at an episode title. They are typically not a show that is trying to confuse or divert you with metaphors; instead, they want to make it pretty clear what the theme of an episode is, since they know that you are most-likely going to be watching anyway.

The same thing is most-likely true about the upcoming sixth episode of the season, at least based on what we have below. This image on Twitter shows Pauley Perrette with a young actor, and the script reads “Parental Guidance Suggested.”

This title is definitely a reference to the old MPAA ratings, but it’s also a clue that kids probably will play a big theme in the story. We’re actually surprised the show has not taken on the subject of children more often, given how many characters on the show are of the age when they would be thinking about these sorts of things. Then again, many of them are not even in a position when they would have kids. Tony and Abby are single, and McGee’s status is still somewhat of a question mark based on what happens with Delilah. There is no word right now on when or if Margo Harshman is going to be back in this role, but we personally feel like she should be.

The new season of “NCIS” premieres on Tuesday, September 23, and we know that the first two episodes are entitled “Twenty Clicks” and then “Kill the Messenger.”
