NCIS is one of my favorite series ever. Although I prefer the episodes with Ziva and I HATE those with Caitlin Todd.
This episode stands out from all the others. The feels are there...at nearly every turn. This episode takes a tragic storyline and brings it to life in a way that won't leave a dry eye in the room. It's what I call a three towel episode.
Corporal Yost is a WWII Veteran and recipient of the Medal of Honor. He went through a hellish experience and during that hell, lost a friend. Through the stubborn perseverance of Gibbs, the truth is revealed and Yost is absolved of responsibility for the death of his friend. Yes...I'm avoiding revealing spoilers and plot points.
The scene that wrecks me is when Cpl. Yost asks Caitlin if she dances, then sings a Benny Goodman song and dances with Caitlin.
Understand...I generally don't watch the first couple of seasons of NCIS because I can't stand Caitlin Todd.
Having said that...This is, hands down, my favorite episode of the entire series. Even if you're not a fan of NCIS, this episode is one that will move you.
If I could, I'd rate it 12/10.
