A disappointing episode
15 September 2012 | by (United States) – See all my reviews

A man is found shot to death just inside his doorway and it is soon revealed that he was about to enter the witness protection program, along with his wife and son, for his agreeing to testify against a big wig gangster. Another suspect is added when it's discovered that the wife is having an affair with an obnoxious loud-mouthed "life coach" played by Michael Weatherly. Weatherly's DiNozo character in NCIS is getting to be very tiresome and in this show he takes that character to a ludicrous extreme. I assume it was supposed to be an amusing portrayal but it was just annoying. Provenza's seeming to take this blow hard and none too bright life coach's advise seriously is somewhat amusing but then Provenza's take on many things can be amusing. The solution to the murder is sadly believable. But the show was a miss.
