NCIS: Los Angeles is known for weaving intricate storylines over multiple seasons, and as Season 14 approaches, fans can expect some significant resolutions. With the previous season ending on a hopeful note—Callen (Chris O’Donnell) proposing to Anna (Bar Paly) and Kensi (Daniela Ruah) and Deeks (Eric Christian Olsen) fostering Rosa (Natalia Del Riego)—questions linger about Hetty’s (Linda Hunt) secret mission in Syria and the looming threat posed by Kessler (Frank Military).
In a recent interview, executive producer R. Scott Gemmill addressed these story arcs. He hinted at the developing tension between Callen and Hetty, as unresolved issues from Callen’s past come to light. While Hetty embarks on her mission, it seems her departure may be to avoid an uncomfortable confrontation with Callen. This tension will unfold as the season progresses, revealing the complexities behind Hetty’s actions and her motivations.
Regarding Hetty’s mission, Gemmill teased that it involves a critical operation to expose a traitor within the Pentagon, with past characters potentially reappearing in connection to the storyline. As the season unfolds, the team will search for Hetty, uncovering the details of her mission and the threats she faces.
The executive producer also assured fans that the Kessler storyline won’t be lingering indefinitely. With Kensi and Deeks now parents, the urgency to resolve this threat will heighten. Gemmill confirmed that the show has a knack for revisiting unresolved conflicts, promising that Kessler’s arc will come to a conclusion, allowing Kensi and Deeks to move forward without that burden hanging over them.
