‘NCIS: Origins’ Bosses Tease Gibbs & Diane’s Relationship in Season 2

[Warning: The below contains MAJOR spoilers for the NCIS: Origins Season 2 premiere “The Funky Bunch.”]

“Without Lala…” Those two words are part of Mark Harmon‘s voiceover to kick off the NCIS: Origins Season 2 premiere, which does, pretty quickly, reveal if Lala (Mariel Molino) survived that horrific car accident from the finale.

But the great news is that Lala survives! She even returns to work in the Season 2 premiere, though working without her isn’t the only adjustment for Gibbs (Austin Stowell) and Franks (Kyle Schmid) when we pick up with them. Randy’s (Caleb Foote) also on a desk, and Wheeler’s (Patrick Fischler‘s) been demoted to work in the field on Franks’ team after the events at the end of last season. (No one’s happy.)
