‘NCIS’ season 11, episode 13 preview: Can Gibbs and the team take down Parsa?
After spending the end of last year focusing on the introduction of Bishop, “NCIS” season 11 returns on Tuesday night with what may be one of its most dramatic episodes since the very start of this season. With “Double Back,” you have an emotional gut-punch that is largely themed around the hunt for Parsa, and whether or not Gibbs and the rest of the team can find a way to stop him, and make sure that nobody else falls within his crosshairs and suffers the consequences as a result.
Sadly, the photos released for this episode don’t really give away much, save for that an investigation will be ongoing. The more important question perhaps here is what in the world is going on with McGee during all of this? He is the guy who is going through the wringer right now; Delilah is not only injured, but she may be dying as a result of what happened with the attack. McGee’s been through quite a bit before, but this would be near the top of the list.
The other unfortunate news that we have to hand down on this subject right now is merely that this may not be the end of the Parsa saga. Early reports suggested that this is an arc that could last for three whole episodes, and whatever transpires here may just lead into something more. But with all this being said, we at least like that “NCIS” is breaking the mold a little bit and giving us a new sort of case to take on. It’ll get us more and more engrossed as time goes by, and hopefully bring us to some sort of thrilling conclusion.
What do you think is going to happen in this episode?

Wow, what a disappointment that episode was, apart from some sweet scenes with McGee. I am not even going to bother talking about Bishop, everyone else has that covered. I can’t believe what they have done to Tony. Men’s group, making casseroles. And I assume Silvia Martinez is being set up as Senior’s girlfriend for that creepy love triangle with Tony. Gross.

I’m sorry, but I don’t have much hope for this episode either. I’m sure Bishop will be front and center – unfortunately – even though McGee should get the spotlight. I hope that what we see in the sneak peeks is not all we get of him. I’m also really, really aggravated that as yet, NO ONE in the building has mentioned Ziva in connection with Parsa. Really? a few months ago he was trying to have her killed. Please don’t tell me he just walks away and leaves her alone. Very un-NCIS-terrorist like. The least that Tony and Gibbs should do is mention her in conversation. She will most likely be back, probably this season, so what is so hard about mentioning her as part of the backstory?

Wasn’t Tony and McGee also targeted , i mean Tony had his living room shot up. They didn’t stop to mentioned that either, i’m guessing cause they were trying to prevent further things happening at the time. I’m sure references will happen to the past at some stage but it’s not actual important to the story at the moment

They told us Ziva was first on his hit list. That’s the reason why she went into hiding.

Good to see that McGee is getting a meaty storyline. I just hope Delilah will be ok cause I was hoping McGee would be the one to find happiness. I also hope to see the team work together to find Parsa, because this is what I tune in every week, to see the team working together. And that’s been lacking as of late.

Based on your photo, I guess Bishop is in this one too. rats.

I like that McGee is getting a meaty storyline for once. Maybe the show will pick up its pace, which has been just dreadful this season. Maybe Gibbs will wake up from his coma.

Well, maybe AgentScully – but doesn’t Gibbs get his instructions from Bishop now ? Chances of this changing in the near future and him turning to his Senior Field Agent, Tony, ummm slim I’d say….didn’t Gibbs already order her to sit on the floor and ‘find him now’ ???? I have little if any interest left in NCIS.
