Great...another dad. On top of that, it's the dad of the oldest member of the team. I think the only dad that hasn't been seen is Agent Knight's. If they show him, I hope they at least name him Garth and have him played by David Hasslehoff. I considered Geraint Wyn Davies, but Torres would never let up if her dad turned out to also be named Nick.

well, there’s only so many storylines one can come up with in 450 episodes, Hari, so they have no choice but to involve Parker’s dad in one of them…fr’instance, my favorite: Ka-Booms!! how many of those can anyone experience in their lifetime? and yet, NCIS has one every other week!  and, yeah, Gary Cole is 66 y/o in real life, so his character is also “60-ish”, making his dad “80-ish”…wonder what 80-old actor they’re going to cast, and is he going to be an aging Lothario a la you know who? 🤨
🤔 I wonder how NCIS ties into this one:NCIS INVESTIGATES THE DEATH OF A RIDE-SHARE DRIVER FOUND AFTER A CAR ACCIDENT…

Didn't we already see some friction between Parker and his dad in a previous episode? Guess they patched it up a bit, if they are under the same roof.

We haven't met Jimmy's or Kasie's dad's either. Of the current cast only McGee and Torres. Never met either of Vance's parents and he's been on 14 years plus.

This will also be the first milestone episode without MH. A sad day.

This was a solid episode. I wish I was able to see the takedown scene, our weather garbled the cable.

Convenient that papa Parker just happened to be living with Alden right when this case happened. Apart from that, great job on casting the dad. And just a bit of trivia: He played the principal in the movie Summer School where Mark Harmon was playing a teacher (who happened to be the main character). So in a sense, Parker's dad was once Gibbs' boss! 😺😺😺

ha! back on February 10th I wrote:
well, I got that kinda’ right - but at least he wasn’t nearly as cringey as you know who…
also, seems the actor who portrayed Roman Parker made a previous appearance as Parker’s dad back in S19/ep21, “Birds of a Feather”, but I don’t recall that…
unless an episode is extremely touching/outstanding, I just file it away in the back of my mind…
I have to rewatch the ending to figure out just why they killed the guy - once again, the team’s explanation seemed rather convoluted…
shuffleboard, anyone? 😉
cable AND shuffleboard!?
guess Parker’s dad will be perfectly happy living at “Horn-doggy Pines”! 😂

LOL...I agree nas. I think Roman would really enjoy being in that place. Seems like he would be right at home there. I suppose he could always go back and visit.
I basically enjoyed this episode for the most part. Even though again I knew the woman at that home was in on it somehow. I thought maybe the reason was she *did* love that poor ride sharing granny app kid. So I figured she had him killed when he revealed he loved someone else. After all, why were those texts/emails so flirty? Didn't make a lot of sense to me. Other than to see psycho girlfriend go off on reading them. And yeah, I also thought the ending was a bit convoluted again. I guess she and that bad guy felt that since he knew a lot about art, he could put their operation in jeopardy. Or something such as that. Okay.
The other thing I had an issue with is using someone's dad undercover once again. I remember Tony's dad doing it a time or two. And now Parker's dad. Couldn't they just recruit a retired agent to do it? Would have laughed if it turned out to be Gibbs. Heh. But they're probably saving his return for something a lot more dramatic. Anyway, I did like the actor who played Parker's dad. I felt he and Alden played off each other well.
It wasn't a really memorable episode. Probably will forget most of it after the season is over. But I liked it for what it was. Decent filler episode that didn't annoy me too much. A- for me.

Yep, that was the epi where Alden's ex-wife Viv got "taken" - we found out she had visited Roman that morning and he knew where she went jogging -- apparently because Roman liked Viv more than he liked Alden... |
