And Sebastian finds the warrior within
TheNCIS: New Orleansgang tightened the noose around that shady Mayor Hamilton this week -- or at least, it tried to, when a case reunited LaSalle (Lucas Black) with pals from his NOPD days.
It all started when a Navy officer, Nathan Kelly, got popped in the middle of a drug deal gone bad. Things were going so well for the guy in those few seconds we knew him, too -- high as a skyscraper, hanging out in a pretty happening nightclub -- when his attempt to sell a brick of the powerful synthetic opioid fentanyl went really, really wrong. He shot at some NOPD officer and, as one does, got killed in the process.

Not only that, some of those drugs (and a lot more, some $500 million worth) were bound for a ship to Panama, sending Agent Tammy Gregorio (Vanessa Ferlito) and Sebastian (Rob Kerkovich) onto the vessel in search of them. Cured of his seasickness and anxiety by special Chinese drugs Gregorio gave him, Sebastian was in rare form. His thinking helped them find the drugs -- along with some big beefy dude who tried to stomp the life out of them when they found the dope. Luckily, Sebastian's newfound strength from the pills kicked in and he promptly issued a beatdown.
Back on land, it was really starting to look like Marino was truly scum of the Earth when LaSalle and Agent Pride (Scott Bakula) find that Brian Cooper, a former colleague of Marino's, had been charred to a crisp in an incinerator. That's when Pride gets a call from his girlfriend/ADA Rita (Chelsea Field) who got rammed off the road by a truck that had been following her when she was doing some digging on Audubon Industries. That's the company she and Pride are sure is seizing land from disenfranchised people in Clearwater to sell at a higher cost with Hamilton's blessing. What in the world was going on?
NCIS: New Orleans airs Tuesdays at 10/9c on CBS.
