Cabin Fever is the episode that I have been waiting for. Tonight’s Cadence was just treading water as I anticipate the deeper story to unfold. Moments between Gibbs and Fornell have often been punctuated by memorable one liners, usually at the expense of their shared ex wife. All the way back to season two we heard about “the second biggest mistake of his life” and later in Jackknife as they argue over Fornell driving Gibbs’ car, we got “Whatever, you already slept with my wife.” Of course, they had comical shared misery through the triad of Diane episodes. Now, the coin has turned and they have real shared emotions over her death. I feel that this is not a Diane story, or a Russian nemesis story, but a friendship story between Gibbs and Fornell. It was foreshadowed years ago when Fornell was called to task about hesitating and letting the mob boss be killed. As he waited to be called on the carpet, Gibbs appeared in support. Fornell says , “She said you’d be here, our ex-wife.” This has been a deep friendship bond that has developed over twelve years, though presented with humor. Now we have reached the point Gibbs will do anything to save his friend and to save himself from the guilt of “You were my Shannon.” I can’t wait to see how it plays out. With good writing, I am expecting a stellar performance from Mark Harmon and real emotions from both characters. I’m also wondering, where will they go from here? Can the humor ever return ??? Certainly not at Diane’s expense!

Very excited for this episode! Mark’s brilliant in those kind of scenes. I know it will be very emotional and that’s what I want to see. All the emotions these characters go through. One thing I really love about NCIS is that all the actors are so talented. Definitely can’t wait.
