Maybe it's because the previous episode was so good, but this episode was pretty weak. If that didn't play a factor in it, this episode's simply a weak episode. The case and its unfolding weren't that exciting. But I guess it was a good decision of toning things down a little after the previous episode. The problem isn't that. It's that the writers didn't manage to make it enjoyable, despite that.
I was pleasantly surprised to see Chris Johnson in this, whose name I didn't know until now. For those who don't know, he played Logan Fell in The Vampire Diaries' first season. I still haven't watched that show yet, but I've seen bits and pieces from the first few episodes, including him. I'm not sure if that's his most-popular acting role, whether people know him the most from it or another one. But I recognized him from that.
During the flashbacks of what happened, Jennifer Lyons' acting in the car came out of nowhere. And not in a good way. I was caught off guard by it. No joke. I don't want to go as far as to say that it was bad acting, that I thought it was bad acting. That's subjective, and subjective is irrelevant. But it sounded like bad acting. It's going to give me nightmares: nightmares of bewilderment and laughter. Nah, I'm joking. It wasn't THAT bad.
As I said at the beginning, this episode was weak, with not much excitement. I think it could've been better, more enjoyable, while still retaining the intention of toning things down after the previous episode. That wasn't the case, unfortunately.
But the previous episode's events were brought up, which is good. I was expecting it to be as if it never happened until the episode where that plotline regains the spotlight. I'm guessing that's because the season's end is getting close. I wonder how it'll end: probably on a cliffhanger, but what will the cliffhanger be?
Besides the previous episode's events being discussed and talked about by Tony and Caitlin: Ducky's comment regarding Gerald's status, as well as Gibbs' fixated determination towards finding out who that guy is, including catching him, I don't think there were any other things worthwhile to note.
