NCIS: New Orleans season 4 episode 16: Is trouble ahead for LaSalle’s brother?

NCIS: New Orleans season 4 episode 16 is airing on March 6, and early indications suggest that this one will be dramatic. For starters, we know that this episode could be one of the last ones featuring Shalita Grant as Percy. To go along with that, it’s also touching on a character in LaSalle’s brother who hasn’t been a part of the show in some time.

Based on the NCIS: New Orleans season 4 episode 16 synopsis below, we’re at least assuming that this episode is speaking about Cade LaSalle, his older brother who we saw on the show a few times in season 1:

“Empathy” – NCIS investigates the disappearance of a congressional aide after a hitman saves her from two men posing as NCIS agents. Also, LaSalle struggles with life-altering decisions regarding his brother’s future, on NCIS: NEW ORLEANS, Tuesday, March 6 (10:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.

One thing that is worth noting about this episode is this: Despite Cade potentially being a part of this story, there is no guarantee that you’ll see the character in the flesh. Clayne Crawford is not listed as a guest star in the episode, which makes sense given that he has a major role over on Lethal Weapon. This is a problem that comes up from time to time — we’re sure that NCIS: New Orleans would love to use Cade a little bit more than they’ve been able to, but it’s rather hard when the actor is on another show on another network, filming in another season. That’s especially true given that Crawford is essential to Lethal Weapon and it’s hard to imagine any episode of that show without him or Damon Wayans.

No matter if we see Cade or not, it’s nice to have him involved in the story somehow. Beyond that, we’re a little concerned about Percy’s status in this episode given that we don’t seen her mentioned in the synopsis at all. Hopefully this isn’t another one of those episodes like the one we saw before the hiatus where she just doesn’t end up appearing at all.
