In fact, Blye didn’t appear in the entire episode, leaving fans to wonder what happened to her.
Her vanishing act was quickly explained in the episode as Deeks stated that Kensi was away for training.
So he had his mum Roberta Deeks (Pamela Reed), who lives down the road from them, for support when he didn’t know how to help Rosa.
In fact, Kensi won’t be returning for the upcoming episode, Let it Burn, either, sadly.
According to her IMDb page, actress Daniela Ruah won’t be reprising her role until episode nine
Unfortunately, NCIS LA will be taking its midseason hiatus after its eighth instalment so it’s going to be quite a while before viewers will see Kensi back on their screens.
Season 14, episode nine, A Long Time Coming, is going to air at the start of next year, on Sunday, January 2, 2023.
With Ruah not starring in the final episodes of 2022, viewers are wondering if this is the beginning of the end for Kensi.
Thankfully, it doesn’t seem that this is the case as Ruah has spent time behind the scenes, directing episodes in season 14
She was behind season 14’s Flesh and Blood and will be taking to the director’s chair again later in this series.
So Ruah has been busy working both behind and in front of the camera which could explain her absence from the show.
However, the star has also been working on another project away from NCIS Los Angeles.
In 2020, Ruah was the leading lady in the Second World War drama A Espia as Maria João Mascarenhas
The drama is returning for a second season scheduled to air in 2023.
