Gut Check

On tonight’s NCIS season 11, episode 9: “Gut Check,” after discovering the Secretary of the Navy was bugged during a confidential briefing, NSA Analyst Eleanor “Ellie” Bishop, who predicted the security breach in exact detail two years ago, partners with the NCIS team on the case.

NCIS series is based on the cases of the Naval Criminal Investigative Service. From murder and espionage to terrorism and stolen submarines, special agents traverse the globe to investigate all crimes with Navy or Marine Corps ties. With liberal doses of humor, the show focuses on the sometimes complex and always amusing dynamics of a team forced to work together in high-stress situations.

The agents include special agent Anthony DiNozzo; an ex-homicide detective; special agent Ziva David, probably the most dangerous team member; and special agent Timothy McGee, a MIT graduate with a genius talent in the computer field. Forensic specialist Abby Sciuto, also assists the team along with medical examiner Dr. Donald “Ducky” Mallard. Head of operations is NCIS Director Leon Vance, who is an intelligent and highly trained agent.

NCIS season 11 episode 9: “Gut Check” airs tonight, Nov. 19, at 8:00 p.m. on CBS. Spoiler videos below:

Independent journalism doesn't fund itself.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
