NCIS: Origins season 2, episode 4 may not be about Gibbs and Lala, but the outing manages to drop a telling clue about the chances of their romantic future. While the flagship remains the most-watched show in the franchise, NCIS: Origins is proving to be the best installment in the universe that is currently on the screen.

Aside from compelling weekly cases that are mostly reminiscent of earlier mysteries that the MCRT handled, it also tells an intriguing romance between Leroy Jethro Gibbs and Lala Dominguez. While NCIS: Origins lied in its marketing about what it's really about, it's difficult to find anyone who is opposed to the narrative that it is currently telling.

For context, NCIS does not mention, let alone feature Lala, which is a double-edged sword for the prequel.
