What’s this? In this photo from the Sept. 22 season premiere of CBS'
NCIS, obtained exclusively by
tvguidemagazine.com,
Michael Weatherly, aka Special Agent Tony DiNozzo, is getting the chair. The
same chair, from all indications, that his partner, Ziva (
Cote de Pablo), was tied to somewhere in Africa in the final scene of last season. Perhaps it’s best not to try to figure it out, because
NCIS exec producer Shane Brennan promises us: "If you think you know why DiNozzo is tied to a chair, be prepared for a shocking surprise." We do know the premiere involves some time-jumping, which explains how DiNozzo is waggishly interviewing replacements for Ziva in D.C. in some scenes and getting the tar beaten out of him overseas in others. Get some rest while your interrogator is out of the room, Tony—we’re going to need your wisecracks all fall.
What do you think,
NCIS fans—will Tony attempt to rescue Ziva?
