“[There are] boundaries within that love, but the love is unconditional in that you always have this place that is safe.”
Olsen will once again be reprising his role as Deeks for the latest episode of NCIS LA.
Season 14, episode three is called The Body Stitchers and will see the agents team up with the FBI to try and catch a group of serial killers
