By Season 8’s “Hot Water,” the mole (well, moles) took things up a notch by targeting Deeks, Callen, Sam, and Granger. All of them got framed for crimes and then arrested. But it was soon revealed that CIA agents were the masterminds behind it all. They had teamed up to get back at NCIS for getting involved in their mission in the Middle East.
Ding dong the witch is dead! When NCIS: New Orleans launches its sixth season tonight, the big, bad Apollyon will have been laid to rest for good and Dwayne Pride ( Scott Bakula) is recovering from the trauma of being kidnapped, held and drugged with LSD and all sorts of other nasty things, and interrogated, in last season’s finale.
NCIS: New Orleans. characters. NCIS: New Orleans is an American television series, executive produced by Gary Glasberg and Mark Harmon. The series features an extensive regular cast, including Scott Bakula as Dwayne Cassius Pride, Lucas Black as Christopher LaSalle, Zoe McLellan as Meredith Brody and Vanessa Ferlito as Tammy Gregorio.
Where did Pride go to NCIS?
Pride went on to have an illustrious career that took him around the world, including Russia and South Africa, culminating in his return to Louisiana to head up NCIS operations at the United States Marine Corps Support Facility in Algiers, Louisiana before NCIS opened a proper NCIS Resident Agency in New Orleans.
Hannah Khoury ( Necar Zadegan) is a former NCIS Senior Field Agent. After Pride is promoted to Special Agent in Charge, she transfers to the New Orleans field office as a Supervisory Special Agent (S.S.A.) to replace him as the team’s direct supervisor.
Isler goes “off book” to pursue an opioid theft ring in the Season 4 episode “The Last Mile”, and the trail leads him to New Orleans. In this episode it is revealed that he was once hooked on pain killers after an injury. He is coached by NCIS Agent Sonja Percy in his determination to accompany her in an undercover sting operation, and he performs well. In the closing episodes of Season 5, “The River Styx” Parts 1 & 2, Isler has traveled undercover to the disputed territory of South Ossetia in the Caucasus in pursuit of Avery Walker and Apollyon — the same criminals pursued by Pride and NCIS New Orleans. Isler is taken hostage by a local military warlord, and Pride and LaSalle team up with a local military operator to ransom Isler and escape to nearby friendly territory in the Republic of Georgia. Pride stays behind to give cover for LaSalle and an injured Isler to get away via motorboat. Isler participates then in a scheme to root out a mole in U.S. intelligence by faking his death, claimed to be due to wounds (rather than injuries) incurred in his rescue. He is put into a deep sleep and carried off the aircraft in New Orleans in a flag-draped coffin, only to be re-awakened in secret by coroner Loretta Wade injecting him with adrenaline. Meanwhile Pride ends up in the hands of Apollyon and its leader Avery Walker, who had earlier escaped from prison in New Orleans.
Agent Naomi Parsons ( Kate Beahan) is an Australian ADFIS Investigator seconded to New Orleans, and a romantic interest for Dwayne Pride, in the Season 2 episode “Foreign Affairs.” In due course, she became too aggressive in her pursuit of a U. S. Navy suspect in a case involving a dead Australian naval officer, stepped on Pride’s toes, attempted to usurp jurisdiction, and set back the New Orleans team’s case. Pride pushes back and gets her removed from the case, prompting coroner Loretta Wade to laugh in declaring, “Ooh! Takes talent to get under Dwayne Pride’s skin!” Pride’s daughter Laurel thinks Agent Parsons would be a good choice for a girlfriend for her dad. Parsons finally confesses to Pride that she was once a well-off lawyer whose pursuit of justice brought her into the investigative side of the law; now she’s still “hard-charging”, providing answers and comfort and closure to service members’ families who have suffered the loss of a loved one. A sympathetic Pride responds, “I know that racket.” He invites her back on the case.
Children. Danny Malloy (foster son) CJ Malloy (foster son) Loretta Wade ( CCH Pounder) is the Coroner of Jefferson Parish. Wade’s office is contracted by NCIS for autopsies and forensics. She is a graduate of Harvard University and moved down to New Orleans after completing medical school.
Jim Messier ( Dylan Walsh) is a Captain with the New Orleans Police Department. In “My City”, it is revealed that he was seduced by Sasha Broussard into becoming a mole, which led to his assassinating Baitfish, once he was captured by Special Agent Pride and his team. Pride and LaSalle eventually discover a badly beaten Messier at an abandoned motel area with Pride and LaSalle managing to get Messier to safety before the bomb goes off. After being placed into custody, Messier is presumably convicted of his crimes, stripped of his rank as Captain and jailed.
Zahra Taylor. Zahra Taylor ( Amanda Warren) is the Mayor of New Orleans from Season 4 onward. Previously the Interim Mayor after Mayor Hamilton’s arrest, she was elected on a special election against conservative Vernon Butler. Her campaign was assisted by Wade and presumably the entire NCIS team.
