NCIS: Naval Criminal Investigative Service

Cloak - S6-E8

Continuity mistake: When Jimmy passes Ducky the black gloves, the camera changes and they both have the gloves on. There is no jump in time as Ducky's speech is seamless. (00:04:30)

Cloak - S6-E8

Plot hole: Season 6, episode 8 ("Cloak"). When Ziva and Tony take the elevator two floors down this takes a full minute. When in a hurry for a call it speeds down, yet for this conversation it (conveniently) took a minute.

Suggested correction: That's because whenever they get a call, or use the lift we see them get in, then arrive where they are going in the next shot. Whenever we see inside the lift it is predominately when Gibbs stops the lift to have a private chat with someone.

Dagger - S6-E9

Continuity mistake: When Tony and McGee are on stakeout at the coffee shop, McGee raises his coffee cup to his mouth and prepares to take a sip. The cup is then down by his chest and he raises it to his mouth again. (00:01:55)

Cubs Fan

Dagger - S6-E9

Continuity mistake: In the scene where Tony and Ziva discover the dead body in Amanda's hiding place the dead body's extended arm is lying on the rug on the floor, and is left that way when Gibbs tell them to leave, yet in the next scene when Ducky shows Gibbs a picture of the dead body, the rug beneath the extended arm has disappeared. (00:13:45)

Dagger - S6-E9

Continuity mistake: During the scene where Lee is being guarded by Tim and Tiny in the conference room, the coffee pots, stir sticks, cups and sugar bowls behind Lee change positions throughout the scene. (00:17:00)

Spiritfire

Dagger - S6-E9

Factual error: During the sequence where Bankston and Lee are supposed to make the dead drop of Domino, Adams Tavern, the location of the drop, is shown to be at 2177 Pimmit Drive in Woodbridge Va. The map that is showing the location is geographically correct, but "Pimmit Drive" is actually Horner Road. Also once the action leaves the bar, Lee and Bankston hijack a bus that reads "District Transit Authority". Since they are in Woodbridge, the bus service would be OmniLink. (00:30:20 - 00:38:15)

Spiritfire

Road Kill - S6-E10

Factual error: When looking at the phone records, there are 2 calls that go to Burke, Virginia. However the 2 calls have different area codes (203 and 303). The area code is also actually 703. (00:34:15)

Road Kill - S6-E10

Other mistake: When looking at the phone records, there are 4 calls that are highlighted as being made to the same number. Each call lasting exactly the same amount of time. Highly unlikely. (00:34:15)

Silent Night - S6-E11

Visible crew/equipment: When Detective Kemp walks in and shows Quinn's sketch, Ziva says, "Looks like an older version of him," then as she points to the plasma screen, the boom mic dips into view at the top of the screen. (00:03:05)

Super Grover

Yankee White - S1-E1

Gibbs: I heard you quit, Agent Todd.
Kate Todd: Happy news travels fast. Yes, I resigned. It was the right thing to do.
Gibbs: Yep. Pull that crap at NCIS, I won't give you a chance to resign.
Kate Todd: Is that a job offer?

Show generally

Question: I finally saw the 2-part episode from the show JAG. Does anyone know what happened to Viv Blackadder? I don't recall hearing anyone ever mention the name on NCIS.

Answer: I hadn't seen the backdoor pilots yet but while it wasn't explicitly stated, at least onscreen, I heard somewhere Vivian got either fired from NCIS due to jeopardizing a case, got resigned from the agency, or transferred to the FBI.

Raykvega423

Answer: I dont believe it is ever mentioned, but like most pilot episodes the characters are often changed, replaced or even removed in this case.
