As NCIS: Los Angeles gears up for its Season 9 premiere on October 1, fans are buzzing with updates on character dynamics and plot developments.
Callen’s Love Interest Returns
One exciting development is the return of Callen’s love interest, Anna Kolchek (played by Bar Paly). Anna, who previously appeared in Season 6, will now be working with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. It seems Callen may finally take their flirtation to the next level, rekindling their relationship and exploring deeper emotional connections.
Deeks Faces Challenges with New Leadership
On the other hand, Deeks (Eric Christian Olsen) is set to face obstacles under the new leadership of Executive Assistant Director Shay Mosley (Nia Long). Mosley has a strict stance against workplace romances, putting pressure on Deeks and Kensi’s (Daniela Ruah) engagement. Additionally, she seems to view Deeks as more of a civilian than a full-fledged member of the NCIS team, which may lead to conflicts and challenges for him to prove his worth.
Despite these challenges, Deeks is confirmed to appear in Episode 2, titled “Assets,” where he will work alongside Sam (LL Cool J) and Callen, indicating that he will still play a vital role in the team’s operations.
Team Dynamics Shift with New Boss
The new season will also explore the team’s adjustment to Mosley’s leadership. With her intimidating presence and loyal assistant, Harley Hidoku (Andrea Bordeaux), the dynamics within the team are expected to shift. Mosley’s antagonistic approach, especially towards Deeks, will create tension and force the team to navigate their new reality under her watchful eye.
As the team grapples with personal challenges and evolving relationships, Season 9 promises to deliver action-packed storylines alongside deeper character exploration, keeping fans engaged as they tune in.
