This week's episode of "NCIS: Los Angeles" was a fun, yet still intense trip into the world of food trucks, but next week's "NCIS" is bound to be even more thrilling. According to Enstars, the latest episode of the hit CBS crime drama will be titled "Forest for the Trees," and will focus heavily on the characters of Sam and Callen.
"Forest for the Trees" will air on February 9th, and will see Sam and Callen kidnapped while investigating a possible terrorist threat. With both of the series' stars vanished, it'll be up to Deeks and Kensi to find the two heroes and restore order to "NCIS: Los Angeles."
The episode will be Diana C. Valentine, and was written by Gil Grant. NCIS: LA Magazine has the official synopsis for "Forest for the Trees," and you can check it out below.
"Callen and Sam are kidnapped when they follow an anonymous tip about a missing NSA agent. When the team discovers they are nowhere to be found, they realize it could have been a trap set by terrorists."
The episode will guest star Jaylen Moore, Stephen Monroe Taylor, Julian Graham and Ayman Samman.
"Forest for the Trees" certainly sounds more dramatic and serious than this week's episode, "Black Wind." In "Black Wind," Sam and Callen, played by LL Cool J and Chris O'Donnell, pose as food truck workers in Tijuana, Mexico, to sniff out a potetial biohazard weapon being developed by the cartels. There's a lot of burger jokes, and even some bathroom jokes, but that doesn't mean there still wasn't action.
But as next week's episode sees Sam and Callen not bickering over burger technique but missing and presumably in danger, expect far fewer laughs than in "Black Wind." But either way, it's bound to be a solid episode of "NCIS: Los Angeles"- and there's sure to be humorous episodes like "Black Wind" in the show's future.
