NCIS: Origins – Sick as Our Secrets

  • wiki: link

The primary focus of “Sick as Our Secrets” deals with  Gibbs (Austin Stowell) and Randy (Caleb Foote) being assigned the protection detail for a priest (Jonah Wharton) who knows the identity of a killer but cannot share it because it came through the confessional. The episode really exists to explore the guilt Randy has been carrying around for months, volunteering for every protection detail, after another agent took his place protecting Gibbs’ wife and daughter. As for the case of the week, it’s fine, and includes an interesting segment of Gibbs and Randy mistaking a pair of robbers as killers, but ultimately anticlimactic as the pair end up not protecting him from the killer and the priest simply gives them the name (meaning no one is asked to solve a crime).

  • IMDb: link

While offering flashbacks to a past mission involving a scientist in which Honey (Samantha Ruth Prabhu) goes missing, “Spy Game” features those after Honey and Nadia (Kashvi Majmundar) catching up to them at their safe house (which it turns out wasn’t all that safe). The sequence provides the bulk of the episode’s action with Honey taking out the attackers by a variety of means. Despite being injured, Honey makes it out with her daughter with the assassins still after them and Bunny (Varun Dhawan) and Chacko (Shivankit Singh Parihar) still too far behind to help.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #3

/ / Comics

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles #3 continues the trend of focusing on a single turtle after the brothers split and scattered across the world, eventually bringing Leonardo back into contact with both Raphael and Michelangelo, leaving Donatello to be the focus of the fourth issue. We find Leonardo in India on the banks of the Ganges River looking for peace and enlightenment, and perhaps death, among the corpse-eating mud turtles of the region.
