If she rented a newer car, then it's doubtful that even Gibbs could fix it. The new engines are sealed, it takes a trained mech. to get into one, a computer to diagnose the problem, then specialized tools to make the repairs. Older cars with older engines, yes, I have no doubt that both Gibbs and Abby could easily repair them, but newer one, that might fall under only Abby's magical expertise. I would bet good money that her car isn't broken in the slightest.

Maria Bello introductory episode.
Cold/Teaser:
Halloween House - not real. YET!
Here it is. This one is real!
Gasp! Gates McFadden in the credits. (I forgot)
Woman shows up at Gibbs with "my car broke down" excuse. showed her drivers license - concealing her job right now. Assume she knows who Gibbs is.
Sort of the truth. She's a doctor. Uh huh. But left out the rest.
Ooo! I actually think Gibbs knows exactly who she is.
I didn't understand either since I've never seen even a second of Game of Thrones.
Victim not the Body of the Week - yet.
Um, Nick. Tim has done some undercover work. He knows how to play a part. No lecture needed.
Act 1:
Oh no! You can't be serious. Oh please grow up! Never mind. I know you won't even come close before the end of the season. Zombie kits for the agents.
Would a helicopter actually take off for a ship in the middle of a hurricane?
GATES! Earlier on I had hoped she'd be cast as one of Gibbs ex-wives. Mom of the missing wife of the stabbing victim. She's more than a little bit of a snob.
No Ducky! Love more Jimmy.
Love the Hamilton shout-out.
Side note: I always loved that NCIS had rain so good to see it back.
Gibbs normally knows or has heard of every current and former NCIS agents so if it's not revealed he knew who she was I'll be surprised - and disappointed.
What will she be doing at NCIS HQ? Is she there because Ducky isn't? Jimmy great as a ME, no training as a forensic psychologist.
Skeleton Crew on the ship.
Glad they're showing the ship as rocking.
That actor put out a tweet earlier tonight that said he served in the Navy for "a short time" - didn't expound on that.
Act 2:
Nick amused that Ellie's high school tormentor is part of the skeleton crew on the ship. He's an officer.
Me thinks Lt Wynn's on that ship and Commander Buckner has her. (see last note of this act)
OK. He might be a kidnapper/attempted murderer but Ellie needs to get over what happened in high school. I wasn't included in most things. I was bullied by some. But the time came to put it in the past. By the time our 20th reunion came around I found myself enjoying spending time with a lot of the one who excluded me. One bully - before the reunion - even apologized when we met downtown one day.
Good advice from Nick for her to put the past in the past.
Stuck. Not leaving the ship due to the storm worsening. No kidding! That happens with hurricanes.
Scratch Buckner having her stowed away on the ship - she's dead in the trunk of a car. Doesn't mean he wasn't involved in her death. Now I suspect the husband.
Act 3:
Jimmy's heard of Doctor Sloan "Jack".
Good for Jimmy! Awkward silences not his thing. Jack. Gibbs. Impasse.
Killer didn't mean to kill her. She points out (Gibbs would have noticed in the past) that the kidnapper tried to make her comfortable.
Too soon for it to be the husband. Offers DNA. Lie detector. Points finger at Buckner.
Ellie biased.
Not the same guy he was at 17.
Like my bully, Buckner apologizes. I believe him.
WOW! We got to see an MTAC tech! That hasn't happened in YEARS!
Concealing identity was creepy. Agree with Gibbs - it crossed a line.
True. She's not a field agent (at this point). She doesn't report to Gibbs, despite him saying she does.
So far I like Jack despite a few - issues. (Just DON'T go romance!!!!)
I have one key only on my car key ring - my car key.
AH HA! The sailor (Petty Officer "Smitty") that welcomed them aboard and told them no flights taking off.
Act 4:
USS Ewing (?) Did I get the name of the ship right.
The Zombie kits provided by Abby might come in handy. Beepers included.
She apologizes too - for the way she revealed Lt Wynn's death. Gibbs did it when he revealed that Kate's "football" carrying lover was dead.
Wouldn't the money from the ship's safe be removed just in case the ship sank?
Smitty a thief. Helen killed by someone else.
Who's the buddy? Ah, the guy {Grayson) who was dating Helen. Met him earlier - I found him so inconsequential I forgot about him.
Healing. I'm glad both apologized. Stay in touch.
Jack stops elevator. OH GOOD! Gibbs DID know! That makes me happy. I just didn't think he'd leave a stranger in his house.
So what's Jack's story?
OH MY! Nasty recent scars!
Yeah. I think I'm going to like her.

Woman shows up at Gibbs with "my car broke down" excuse. showed her drivers license - concealing her job right now. As soon as she 'flashed' her driver's license, that was as good as a flashing neon light that she was some kind of law enforcement. I didn't suspect that Gibbs knew who she was but I like that he played along with her. Gibbs is wrong, he does like games but only when he is playing them. He just doesn't like when he gets played. I don't even technically have that anymore. I have a fob. It lives in my purse. I don't even have to dig it out to get into my car since I have a Ford and they have external keypads. But even with my last car, I only had a key on my key ring. I have a separate set of keys for my house keys. When the XO said he was an engineer, I was worried for a minute he was going to disable the ship but thankfully he just was trying to steal money. You would think that with two NCIS agents on board, that it would be a good idea to not go through with the plan to try to rob the ship. Smitty wasn't very bright... I called that from the moment she emphatically said she couldn't stand the guy. Considering Bishop's luck with guys, it'd be nice to see her with someone nice. But considering her luck with guys, maybe he shouldn't call her! Not sure what to make of the scars just yet but I hope they don't go too melodramatic (not sure that's the right word I want but can't think of anything better...) with her. I realize that tragedy can mean drama but you can have a good character without a tragic background. On a side note, I'm surprised that Ducky didn't show up at all. I was expecting at least a phone call from him.

I was expecting at least a phone call from him. I have a truck key on one end of key chair, and five keys on other; dead bolt, door knob, back door key, back gate locks, parent's house key. Key chain detaches, not good to have too much weight in the ignition, will pull it down and out of place in steering wheel, costing a lot to repair.
Was also bullied in school, elementary through high school. Skipped 10th reunion, went to 20th reunion, skipped 30th reunion. Not sure what I'll do for 40th.
Scars probably aren't that recent. Earlier scene with Vance she mentioned a debt she owed, Vance said that had been paid "a long time ago", she said "not even close" I believe. Fairly sure scars will be related to debt, therefore scars not recent. (probably a bad makeup job. Abby's back tattoo has changed since earlier seasons, so consistency isn't a huge priority with the show, as we have previously made mention, so scars could easily change between episodes when they are showed again.) Could very easily become melodramatic, or sappy, if that's a better word for you.

The scars looked fairy recent to me. Red tinged. A little inflamed. I have old scars and they look nothing like Jack's did.
I thought the scars looked pretty realistic. Her anger in going at the punching bag made me think those scars are why she finally accepted Vance's offer to be stationed on the Navy Yard.

Since they showed them, they must be significant, so I guess we will see if they are old or recent.

the "kinder, gentler nas" must be taking over the "curmudgeonly nas", but I really liked this episode tonight...
even Abby didn't bother me with her silly little "just in case kit"... (wow! my "chill pills" are really working!! 😄 ) (turns out, the kit did come in handy for something - even if it wasn't to ward off the living dead...)
my brain just cannot compute a rain storm of that proportion! oh, we get rain here in AZ, but where I live we'll get a hard rain for a short period of time - and then it's all over... and sometimes, if it happens in the middle of the night I sleep right through it!
Palmer will never be a doctor to me, but I'm learning to live with it... truth is, I much prefer "Dr. Palmer" over the "foot-in-mouth/doofus Palmer"...
just love Maria Bello, and really like "Jack"... she and Gibbs have great chemistry, imo... like NewBe, I want her relationship with LJG to remain friendly & professional - no romance, please!
loved the way "scarecrow" & "Thomas the Adonis" ended it; I'm not a romantic, but I really thought they would make a handsome couple, and wouldn't mind seeing the Commander again sometime in the future...
a closing comment - one that I've brought up in seasons past: the $$$ involved sure wasn't worth committing the crime for... $300k is a paltry amount (split between 2 men) for a theft - and now they face murder charges! duh, duh, dumb!!
🤔 wonder when the old curmudgeon nas will return; maybe when Maxine returns from her "world cruise"... 😉

Wonder how she got to the Navy Yard so quick? She probably left as soon as Gibbs’ car was out of sight and also drives fast. 1. I didn't understand either since I've never seen even a second of Game of Thrones. 2. Would a helicopter actually take off for a ship in the middle of a hurricane? 3. Love the Hamilton shout-out. 4. Glad they're showing the ship as rocking. 5. I wasn't included in most things. I was bullied by some. But the time came to put it in the past. 6. Now I suspect the husband. 7. Killer didn't mean to kill her. She points out (Gibbs would have noticed in the past) that the kidnapper tried to make her comfortable. 8. I have one key only on my car key ring - my car key. 9. AH HA! The sailor (Petty Officer "Smitty") that welcomed them aboard and told them no flights taking off. 10. OH MY! Nasty recent scars! 1. Neither have I. All I got from that was the pregnant Delilah went as the mother of dragons. 2. Depending on the distance and severity of the hurricane, there’s probably one threshold for routine flights and another for emergency flights and Eleanor probably got to claim an emergency. 3. I’m glad they didn’t do any singing – goes with the keeping Jimmy’s foot out of his mouth. 4. Usually the type of detail they miss. At least we didn’t have McGee there getting seasick. 5. In junior high someone tried to bully me and his school day ended on a stretcher. I didn’t have further bullying incidents through the rest of junior high and high school. 6. The husband was my first suspect- the knife missed all vital organs. Think of the Bull episode with the trophy wife. 7. Gibbs would have noticed before, now with an agent shrink he doesn’t. Just like Tony had no trouble using a computer until McGee joined the team. 8. I’ve got the separate car keys on compatible quick disconnect rings so I can attach my other keys to the one for whichever vehicle I’m taking rather easily. I guess that would have made things easy for this thief. 9. Yes, the old ‘introduce a character then don’t show them again until their involvement is ready to be fully revealed. 10. Will she have an abusive man she stays with or will they be from self-flagellation? Of course, that’s unless they are supposed to be much older than they look and be from whatever she owes Vance for.1. the "kinder, gentler nas" must be taking over the "curmudgeonly nas", 2. even Abby didn't bother me with her silly little "just in case kit"... 3. (wow! my "chill pills" are really working!! 😄 ) 4. truth is, I much prefer "Dr. Palmer" over the "foot-in-mouth/doofus Palmer"... 5. loved the way "scarecrow" & "Thomas the Adonis" ended it; I'm not a romantic, but I really thought they would make a handsome couple, and wouldn't mind seeing the Commander again sometime in the future... 6. the $$$ involved sure wasn't worth committing the crime for... 7. $300k is a paltry amount (split between 2 men) for a theft - and now they face murder charges! 8. 🤔 wonder when the old curmudgeon nas will return; maybe when Maxine returns from her "world cruise"... 😉 1. This must certainly be a sign of the apocalypse. 2. I knew something in there would have to turn out to be useful. 3. I’ll have what she’s having… 😊 4. Amen! 5. No. I hope the show stays away from romances. 6&7. Matter of fact it was the exact same amount. 8. How long is a ‘world cruise’?
