Top 10 moments from 'NCIS: Los Angeles' episode 'Leipei'

This episode of NCIS: Los Angeles focused on the murder of a terrorist who was put into witness protection after giving the names of members of an organization known as PK. Through the course of the investigation, the team learns that the victim wasn’t targeted by PK and that he was working for a group who had asked him to make a drone that would be as big as 15 feet.

A smaller drone he had made as a model killed the victim, Antonis Cosse, or Elias Minas. We come to find out the group that wanted him dead, Live Free First, were run by a man named Palmer, who distrusted big corporations and planned to take out a refinery. The team makes a desperate race against time in order to stop the drone attack that could kill hundreds of people.

Meanwhile, we also saw a small scene with Owen Granger and Hetty, who discuss the mole in the department. Granger knows none of her team are the mole, but they aren’t getting close enough yet to discover who they are. Plus, we also see Sam and Callen face off over Sam taking on more skills, as though he doesn’t have enough. And we get to see Nell once again contribute work in the field.

We’re taking a look at some of the top ten moments from the episode “Leipei.” What did you enjoy this episode?

Hetty invites Nell down to talk to her about the undercover work she has been helping to participate in.

It’s a touching moment between the two as they share glasses of whiskey.
