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!
