NCIS is gearing up for an emotional hour with Season 23, Episode 8, titled “Stolen Moments.” The episode is co-written by series star Brian Dietzen — and if his Ducky tribute episode is any indication, fans should brace themselves.
Jimmy & Jessica: Finally an Update?
Viewers have been waiting for movement on Jimmy Palmer and Jessica Knight’s relationship, which has been quietly sidelined this season. With Dietzen involved, this episode is expected to finally give us insight into Jimmy’s emotional state — and where “Jesse” stands now.
A Case With an AI Twist
The episode centers on a man shot outside the vice president’s residence. The twist?
NCIS teams up with a Department of Justice AI chatbot being beta-tested — an unusual partner that’s sure to stir commentary about technology and trust inside the squad room.
