NCIS: New Orleans season 4 episode 5 preview: Is Sebastian fired?

NCIS: New Orleans season 4 episode 5 is going to continue the show’s recent trend of big character-based stories. Moving into this episode, we are specifically going to have a chance to see a big one for Sebastian. We’ve seen him work hard to get where he is when it comes to his career — with that in mind, it’s going to be pretty darn unfortunate when he learns that he may be getting much of it stripped away.

This upcoming episode carries with it the title of “Viral,” and if you look below you can get a pretty clear idea of just what is going to be coming up over the course of the hour.

NCIS: New Orleans season 4 episode 5 synopsis – “Sebastian is placed on administrative leave after his response in a foot chase to apprehend a high value fugitive is questioned by the FBI. Also, while Pride and the team continue to track the high value target, they attempt to find a way to clear Sebastian’s name, on NCIS: NEW ORLEANS, Tuesday, Oct. 24 (10:00-11:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network.”

There’s obviously going to be a lot of trouble coming up for Sebastian, and it doesn’t look like he’s going to be able to figure his way out of it easily. We’re also willing to guess that what happens to him here may be somewhat the result of Pride putting the spotlight on the team as a result of some of his own actions. We’ll see what happens and whether or not Sebastian can recover from it.

Behind the scenes there is also quite a bit to like about this episode — after all, Chad Gomez Creasey of Castle fame is the writer behind the episode, while former Star Trek: The Next Generation star LeVar Burton is directing. He’s directed other episodes of the show in the past, and we have to figure there is a little bit of franchise kinship between him and Scott Bakula. (Now, if only we could get a chance to see him turn on the show in-person at some point moving forward.)
