Out of the Frying Pan - S8-E18
Continuity mistake: Vance slams the axe on the table and through a picture of the victim. However, when Vance removes the axe a minute later, the axe is through a different part of the picture. The 1st time the axe goes through the neck/shoulders of the man in the picture but when removed it's in the forehead. (00:29:50)
Continuity mistake: Episode 8x21, "Dead Reflection": When Tony and Ziva are staking out PO Donner's house, Tony's grip on the hot dog in his hand changes between shots. (00:11:40)
Other mistake: When EJ gets spooked near the end and turns to face a wall with a doorway to "North Stairway C", she faces the camera with her torch facing the camera directly. However behind her is a perfect shadow on The Wall of herself. This shouldn't be possible as the only source of light, as shown, is from her torch. Cade and Levin are in a different room so couldn't be their torches. (00:39:20)
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.
