Katrina Law, best known for her role as Jessica Knight on the CBS drama NCIS, has released a massive teaser from the upcoming 20th season, and it features none other than Alden Parker actor Gary Cole.
Alden Parker (Gary Colefuture )’s in NCIS was jeopardized the same season he made his debut in the 19th season. Parker managed to win over the likes of Nick Torres (Wilmer Valderrama) and Jessica Knight (Katrina Law) after stepping into the shoes left by Gibbs (Mark Harmon), and effectively lead the team – though this was thrown into disarray at the end of season 19 when his ex-wife Vivian Kolchak (Teri Polo) appeared. However, with the CBS drama returning for season 20 in September, actor Law appears to have confirmed his spot on the team is safe – for the time being, at least.
Throughout NCIS season 19, the mystery surrounding Parker’s past remained a hot topic among both CBS viewers and the agents on-screen.
Fans gained more insight when Parker’s ex, Vivian, was thrown into the mix, falling v1ctim to a rumored kidnapping before a murd3r investigation began to unravel and point all fingers at Parker.
Parker not only knew the v1ctim, Ressler, but it turned out the two didn’t have the closest of bonds, with Parker being behind Ressler’s firing from the FBI and the fact the new NCIS director was being sued for defamation by his former rival.
The FBI then targeted Parker, investigating him for fraud, and Parker told the team he wasn’t going to drag them down with him.
However, because there’s a lot more to the case than meets the eye, Parker escaped with the help of Director Vance (Rocky Carroll).
Vivian was with him on his AWOL journey when viewers last saw him.
However, a suspicious text message from Parker’s ex-wife suggests that he will be in danger in season 20 and that a major betrayal is in the works.
With so much uncertainty surrounding Parker’s future, Knight star Law sparked excitement with a snap from the NCIS team’s HQ as season 20 filming continues – and co-star Cole was present.
“Coming right up,” Law simply captioned the filming smiley.
Cole, Valderrama, Sean Murray (who plays Timothy McGee), and Carroll joined her.
Is Parker’s innocence going to be proven early in the new season now that the team appears to be back together?
Whatever happens, fans are overjoyed to see Cole back in the team’s office with the agents.
In response to Law’s photo, Instagram user @pyramid2012 wrote, “Parker is back from his second honeymoon?? You know what I mean.”
According to @azpiony, “KLaw is subtly telling us that the entire team is back together at NCIS in episode 2, which they’re filming this week.” Parker appears to be ‘overjoyed’ to be back at work.”
And @clint8813 v2 exclaimed, “Oh hell yes, it’s the silver fox!”
Others who expressed their delight included @serenagarde, who said, “#NCIS Rocks!” So grateful for all of the hard work that this cast and crew put in to bring us this amazing show!”
“Can’t wait to see how this storyline plays out,” said @eddieszanyi.
‘Love you guys!!!!’ tweeted @kaf525600. “I can’t wait for the new season to begin.”
So, will Parker be back in charge of the team come season 20?
Or, given the gravity of the cr1me, could Law’s snap be a red herring, with Parker expected to be absent for some time?
