Inside ‘NCIS: Tony & Ziva’ Reunion With Michael Weatherly & Cote de Pablo

[Warning: The below contains MAJOR spoilers for NCIS: Tony & Ziva Season 1 Episodes 1 “No Country Is Safe,” 2 “No Friend of Mine,” and 3 “Cover Story.”]

Tiva is together again … sort of. Michael Weatherly and Cote de Pablo reprise their roles as Tony and Ziva in the latest NCIS spinoff, and let’s just say that it’s easiest to describe their relationship as “it’s complicated.”

The NCIS: Tony & Ziva premiere — one of three episodes that dropped at launch — shows us the reunion after Ziva revealed she’d faked her own death for the partners and their daughter. But that was in 2020, and now, in the present day, they’re no longer together but instead co-parenting Tali (Isla Gie). When Tony’s security firm is framed for stealing, and even his friend Henry (James D’Arcy) at Interpol, is after him, however, they go on the run together, leaving Tali in the care of her nanny Sophie (Lara Rossi). Across these three episodes, we see that they’re using a wedding to lure in Martine (Nassima Benchicou), the baddie who also happens to be a member of Interpol, with Ziva standing in as the bride (Tony is not the groom), things got steamy between Tony and Ziva in April 2020, and, in the present, Tony has a girlfriend (Sophie Mousel) … who turns out to be married.
