NCIS season 17 episode 10 is arriving within a few weeks, with the title "The North Pole." Many viewers are excited to watch this episode since it once again marks the appearance of Cote de Pablo's Ziva David in the current installment season. She appeared earlier this season, and she's now coming back in the upcoming episode for another mission.
In the synopsis of NCIS season 17 episode 10, Gibbs and the team will help Ziva with "other thing" that she wanted to take care of before going back to her family. The synopsis didn't give more details about the one thing she needs to do, but it seems like de Pablo's character and the rest of the team will be going on another mission.
Perhaps, their mission in NCIS season 17 episode 10 has something to do with the people who are hunting Ziva earlier this season. But, aside from that mission, it's also interesting to see what happened to her while she was gone after her appearance in the premiere episode. Viewers haven't seen her for a while, so many want to learn what she's up to now.
In a report from TV Insider, series star Diona Reasonover (plays forensic scientist Kasie) described the upcoming episode as a "life or death situation". She teased that Ziva and the rest of the team need to put the case in front and center because someone will die if they don't do it. The actress also revealed that her character would have a scene with Ziva.
Also, some rumors suggest Michael Weatherly's character, Tony DiNozzo, will reunite with Ziva in NCIS season 17 episode 10. These two had a complicated relationship, and they even share a child. During her appearance earlier this season, Gibbs asked Ziva if Tony knew she's still alive, and she replied, "will in time." Right now, however, there's no confirmation that Weatherly is, indeed, coming back.
Meanwhile, just like other series, NCIS season 17 has gone on a short break after the Thanksgiving holiday. The upcoming episode will air within a few weeks, and it will bring a festive feel, considering its title, "The North Pole." The episode will be a special one since it comes with a Christmas theme, so there could be a few surprises here.
NCIS season 17 episode 10 will air on Tuesday, Dec. 17, on CBS Television Network. After her appearance in this episode, Ziva will return in the first episode in 2020, which is set to air on Tuesday, Jan. 7.
