While speaking about “NCIS: Los Angeles” at the MCM Comic-Con panel in 2017, Daniela Ruah and Eric Christian Olsen answered questions about the relationship between their characters of Kensi Blye and Marty Deeks. Olsen then explained that some of the moments he looks at most fondly in the show involve improvisation, specifically between Deeks and Kensi. It even led to his favorite moment ever in the entire series. “One of my favorite scenes still, forever, still is after Deeks is tortured and he’s going through a period of where he’s not able to sleep for weeks, and she (Kensi) comes over with Chinese food and it’s this great scene that they played in the two shot,” Olsen said. “There’s a bunch of like, really honest, natural improvisation … and it ended up being one of my favorite scenes,” he continued.
The specific scene Olsen referenced occurs during Season 5, Episode 2 titled “Impact.” Deeks had been tortured alongside Sam Hanna (LL Cool J) at the end of Season 4 and had taken a leave of absence to recover. Kensi does come over with takeout and helps him through his pain. It was arguably a turning point in Kensi and Deeks’ drawn-out will-they-or-won’t-they relationship.
Season 14, Episode 2 of “NCIS: Los Angeles” airs Sunday, October 16 at 10/9c on CBS.
