This week (1/8) on Homeland Security...


a/k/a Things I learned...

Always use a shorter fuse on thrown bombs.

When working a security detail, don't pull your gun after either the first or second vehicle approaches.

When working a security detail, don't seek cover behind the several parked cars present.

PEBG gets it right... pull when someone knocks on your door.

EBB for two weeks in a row!

When Deeks shoots, the bad guys go ouch.

In addition to interrogation skills, TTS does well at relationship advice.

Why did we pull this case? LOL. C'mon PEBG, that's like the dumbest question ever for this show! The victim was a Navy reservist, but the real reason was a Senator reached out to the APD. No need to bother with agencies that have more manpower and expertise in this area like the FBI, USMS, or Secret Service. Call NCIS!

The actual real reason for NCIS involvement was the bomb being taped to a bottle of rum. Rum is a favorite of pirates, and the Navy battles pirates! While we're at it, no need to involve anyone from the ATF either.

A deleted scene involved SN at the gym knocking out the largest fighter there.

EBB and Kensi in workout clothing. Another solid week for the 18-25 male demographic.

Best cover ever: You're going undercover using your real name after turning up at the crime scene the same day. 

When you are in an alley in a run down part of town to investigate a car being dumped, talk over a personal relationship and ignore your surroundings.

Even though the odds are 1 in 4 that you'll photograph the correct tire, PEBG has mad skills for tire photography, and ING has likewise skills for instant tread match.

When it's just you and EBB, there is no need for backup.

That was one heck of an extended magazine in the pistol used by the chop shop gun thug. He must have shopped at the same place as the gun thugs on Hawaii Five-0 (2010).

High school disciplinary records are easily accessible if you are ING.

Young black kids in LA are always eager to talk to white people holding guns outside a friend's apartment.

PEBG could have put down his gun since EBB was still covering the dude.

TTS' speech to Irvin was pretty good.

Kensi has much to learn about being a federal government employee... malingering is encouraged.
