As NCIS gears up for Season 22 this fall, viewers can brace for some team dynamics to shift. In the Season 21 finale, Director Vance extended a prestigious offer to Special Agent Knight: to lead as the chief training officer for the REACT team at Camp Pendleton in Southern California. Initially hesitant, Knight eventually embraced this opportunity.
However, before Knight could share her decision with her colleague and partner, Dr. Jimmy Palmer, he learned of it from other team members, leading to a tense exchange between them. Despite Palmer expressing regret for his reaction, circumstances prevented a formal apology. Amidst a crisis aboard a decommissioned Navy ship, Knight received valuable advice from Parker, urging her to seize opportunities and embrace mistakes.
Following a perilous ordeal and the successful resolution of the case, Knight decided to accept Vance’s offer, bidding farewell to her current team with a resolute “Hell yeah, sir. Let’s do it,” signifying her dedication to the new role.
As Season 22 looms, fans can expect a shift in dynamics and fresh challenges for the NCIS team as Knight embarks on her new journey across the country.
