- Title: NCIS: Hawai’i – Serve and Protect
- wiki: link
While Lucy (Yasmine Al-Bustami) is assigned to protect one of the daughter (Masha Mashkova) of a Russian oligarch, and one of the visitors for a peace summit, Hanna (LL Cool J) reads Tennant (Vanessa Lachey) in to one of of his super-secret squad’s assignments, this one involving Alexi Volkoff (David Meunier). Tennant quickly finds the right lever to get Hanna the information his team needs leaving the majority of the episode to focus on the Lucy storyline. We also get Kai (Alex Tarrant) running into an old friend in a Canadian reporter (Peyton List) he was involved with during his time in Afghanistan who in turns out might be able to help NCIS learn Tatyana’s true purpose on the island.
Lucy’s annoyance at her assignment, involving an apparently not-so dangerous protestor (Egle Petraite), and Tatyana’s comments about how much she and Lucy have in common, gets no less complicated after she learns Tatyana wants to defect which is quickly followed in the pair fighting for survival in the jungle when their Humvee is attacked by those not wanting to see Tatyana leave teh family business. Lucy and her wounded charge just need to stay alive long enough for Hanna and Tennant to arrive leaving the oligarch daughter alive but forced to consider her own brother was the one who betrayed her.
