If you ever wondered how Pride and Chris on NCIS: New Orleans began working together, we got their back story on Tuesday’s episode. When the recent murder of a marine connects to a cold case that Chris worked on for the first time with Pride, they must retrace what happened all those years ago in order to find out what happened to their current victim.
When we first met past Chris, he was arrogant and selfish, a definite 180 from the Chris we know now. It was great to see the dynamic between Pride and Chris when they first met and how the case connected them to working together for as long as they have.
The cold case centers on victim Phillip Hart, who was murdered just before Hurricane Katrina hit. Because the storm wiped away evidence, including Hart’s body, it made it tough for Chris and Pride to solve the case. However, time always catches up to the criminals and this is true in this case.
There were a lot of heartwrenching moments in this episode, including when you take into account how devastating the storm truly was. Let’s look at what happened when these cases merged together in “Billy and the Kid.”
