“NCIS: New Orleans” season 5 episode 8 presents an all-new story and promises more action with heartwarming scenes as well. There will be another murder to solve for the NCIS team and they will need all the help that they can get.
As per Broadway World, the “NCIS: New Orleans” season 5 episode 8 is titled “Close to Home” and its synopsis reads: “The NCIS team places Mateo Diaz (Octavio Rodriguez), a high school gang member turned informant, in protective custody while they investigate the murder of his junior reserve officers’ training corps instructor.”
In addition, “Pride needs his brother Jimmy Boyd’s (Jason Alan Carvell) help to gain Mateo’s trust.”
As hinted in the “NCIS: New Orleans” season 5 episode 8, it seems that Pride’s brother is going to return so it is likely that they will have some time to bond since it was only recently that they came to know about each other’s existence. They are just paternal half-brothers after all so it is no wonder if they were unaware of their relationship for a long time.
“NCIS: New Orleans” season 5 episode 8 will star Scott Bakula (Dwayne Pride), Lucas Black (Christopher Lasalle), Vanessa Ferlito (Tammy Gregorio), Rob Kerkovich (Sebastian Lund), Daryl Mitchell (Patton Plame) and CCH Pounder as Dr. Loretta Wade. They will be supported by some guest stars that include Jason Alan Carvell (Jimmy Boyd) and Octavio Rodriguez (Mateo Diaz).
Also in the guest list for “NCIS: New Orleans” season 5 episode 8 are Marcos Palma (Leo Reyes), Reggie Lee (Steven Thompson), James Evermore (Milton Gordon), Robert Neary (Carter), Tori Kostic (Mari Foster), Sherri Eakin Sande (Kate Dunn), Lisa Young (Darcy Paterson), Christian Mann (Winded Recruit) and Rhonda Dents (Alma).
Prior to this episode, episode 7 called “Sheepdogs” will be released on Nov. 13 first. Based on CBS’ press release, it will mainly be about Hannah Khoury (Necar Zadegan), the senior special agent who has been assigned as the NOLA team’s new leader.
However, her new post came with some unfortunate incident as her long-guarded secret was uncovered by Tammy Gregorio. This is big deal to her because it is part of her personal life that she wants to bury forever.
Meanwhile, “NCIS: New Orleans” season 5 episode 8 is airing on Tuesday, Nov. 20 at 10 p.m. on CBS
