    A.J. Chegwidden is back!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Every time A.J. pops up in an NCIS arch I get so excited. He is one of a few characters from JAG who returned as their original character and it has caused quite a bit of excitement in an already exciting episode of NCIS:LA! That being said, I look forward to both his continuing presence in the show (please, oh please!) and it would be awesome if we ever heard the who won the coin toss at the end of JAG as it was nearly told to us in NCIS. Keep going, writers and actors. Great job on the plot and story conclusion for the mole. Excellent wrap up to one story and genesis of another.

    And of course, rest in peace, Miguel. You have done your job well to the very end. I cannot fathom the strain it placed upon you to act and be dying at the same time. A true lesson in life for us all no matter our career paths.

    Chegwidden is back

    This story arc was a little long. Should have condensed a couple of episodes. That being said when A.J. Chegwidden walked in I was on the edge of my seat. I hope they use this as a way to bring him in full time to the cast. JAG was not the same after he left. Hopefully he can bring some of that spark into NCIS:LA to make a great show even better.

    • Goofs
      Either the team has come unstuck in time or they need to synchronize their watches. In the final fight scene Deeks' watch says it's 3:35 and 4:05, Ferris' watch says 3:45, and Kensi's says it's 12:05.
