NCISLA Classified Preview: “Granger, O.” (S7E22)

Title:  “Granger, O.”

Airing:  April 18^th

Filming: February 24^th to March 3^rd

 

What CBS is telling us:  As Granger escorts Jennifer Kim (Malese Jow) back to Los Angeles, he interrogates her regarding a North Korean spy and she admits to knowing he is her father, on NCIS: LOS ANGELES.

What we think is happening:  He probably isn’t passing out chocolate “It’s a Girl” cigars at the office but it seems Grumpy Granger is a delayed daddy.  A storyline set in motion during “Cancel Christmas” comes to fruition here.

Sneak Peek #1:

Wasn’t Eric terrible at basketball in season three?

Yes, about that.  Seems there is a price to pay for the three sneak peeks last week and that price is one sneak peek this week.  If anything is put up Monday, I’ll happily add it to the comments section.

After this, we’re down to two episodes – wow!
