7 x 03 - opinions?

Will contain spoilers so behind the cut....

Love the fact that everyone else is realising how hot Tim is - though think polygraph girl needs to go back on the 'appropriate workplace behaviour' class - surely abusing your job like that is wrong? Who am I kidding - I would have done just the same, though I would have made him take his shirt off.

Love the sandwich eating - anyone else watching that entirely through subtext glasses? - and super flexible Tim in the car (+ Tony's reaction). Also love the fact that we don't know what happened in the cell. Just that they were both a bit ruffled. Also think Abby's worry about them was pitched just right. I think she is the voice of the fans in the 'Timmy must never be hurt!' stakes.

I adore Ziva (want to be her when I grow up) so not impressed by Gibbs at the end - be nice to the torture victim please! Like the way that Ziva is shown to be reacting to the changed dynamic between Tim and Tony - she totally realises how close they are now.

Generally a really good episode I thought. SO much better than the depressing season 6 - seems much more character driven and much faster paced. I realise that the whole season can't just be 'Tim and Tony working together and looking longingly at each other' but I am really enjoying it while it happens!

Haha, I do love how Tim gets all the ladies now! As it should be. Tony will be all, WTF D: And oh, this ep made me really want a Tim/Tony polygraph test sexin' fic. Just saying.

Tony was totally checking out McGee's ass on his way into the car (who wasn't?) and the yoga thing? Yum.

They just had to end it like that, didn't they? :( Ziva. Gibbs, you can't deny the Ziva.

Though, was anyone else kind of disappointed that Tony said Tim wasn't his friend? I mean, it made sense at the time, but even so. I donno.

Why not?!?! That would be perfect, if you ask me. *g*

This was my comment, too. :D

Seriously, that would be my kind of show!

Loved the ep, except well, Tim and Tony didn't go undercover. *sad face* Not the way I thought that they would, anyway. Oh, well, this was good too.

But I did not like the polygraph scene. I totally lost it, I screamed such abuse at the TV. *hangs head* It's just, ew, God, NO, creepy stalker woman! That's abuse of power and sexual harassment to boot. You never touch men like that, (the whole adjusting thing) not when you don't know them very well. It made my skin crawl. *shudder*

Just, no. No, no, no. (Though it was cute to see McGee at the end. He's so oblivious. No wonder Tony has to go to such lengths to get his attention.)

I love the fact that Tim's getting the appreciation he deserves but the lady creeped me out. D: Especially when she came to the office and was all like "HE MISSED OUR APPOINTMENT". That's half-way stalkerish for a /girlfriend/ much less some woman that he probably only knows as That One Polygraph Tester. And then with the touching and the high blood pressure thing? SO RED LIGHT BEHAVIOR. If only Tony were there to defend his man.

I was totally watching the sandwich scene through subtext glasses. I laughed out loud when Tony shoved the entire sandwich in his mouth, especially coupled with that smug little smile. Does anyone else think that Tony was trying to imply "Look how much I can fit in this mouth!"? Because that was right where my mind went. xD Also, love the fact that Tony knows Tim doesn't like pickles. I know that's such a petty thing, but little details like that make my life. <3

Naive!Timmy also makes my life. He's just too adorable.

I really hope everything with Ziva works out. It's starting to get me a little worried. D: Although, speaking of Ziva...I'm loving the Abby/Ziva that seems to be becoming more and more prominent. Girl's Night Out, indeed. ;D

Ahh, I love this show. <3

I am liking the little slashy way the show is going. ;D

[sarah-thane.livejournal.com]

Thinking back on it, it was kindof stalkery wasn't it? The show played it for laughs but it was one of those situations where if you had done a gender reversal no-one would have found it funny. Hope that Tony realises that Tim needs to be protected from mad-polygraph-lady!

[vanete-druse.livejournal.com]

YES. IT WAS. And I did not find it funny. I found it alarming, and scary, and it freaked me out. I think I actually said something along the lines of, "OH NO GET AWAY FROM HIM".

And you're right. If some guy was doing that to Abby, we'd want Gibbs to come after him for some quality one-on-one time. =/

Tony has to realize it. He has to save his Probie from the crazy lady. (And maybe FINALLY move in so that when she stalks him and finds Tony in Tim's apartment too, she'll realize her mistake and leave him alone.)

I've never actually posted here, though I've been a lurker for awhile, but I really thought this had to be pointed out, and I can't believe no one has yet. At the beginning of the ep, when McGee first mentions that he has to retake his polygraph, Tony's all, "Don't ask, don't tell. You didn't make the mistake of coming out, did you?" I just thought that was hilarious.

Also, I agree with the sandwich stuff, and Tony making comments about how flexible McGee is. I'm not 100% a Tony/Tim shipper (because I'm sort of a Tiva shipper too), but stuff like that makes me realize how close to canon it really is.

Loved clueless McGee, and Gibbs offering to paint him a picture.

[sarah-thane.livejournal.com]

Totally canon! The 'don't ask, don't tell' bit was hilarious too. Love the fact that Tony is totally obsessed with McGee's sexuality.
I must admit I can't see NCIS in any other way that Tony / Tim what with the looks, the touches and the flirting. (Did you see the way Tim looked up at Tony through his eyelashes in the s7 ep1 during when he was talking about 'payment for services rendered'?) I am hoping that the NCIS world will soon be converted to ship Tony and Tim and write more fabulously fluffy fic!
