Under Covers


Synopsis:
When bodies of two hired assassins are delivered to the NCIS team, Ziva & Tony go undercover assuming the victim's identities in order to find the person who hired the assassins for their mission. While working on the case, Ziva and Tony spend some quality time in a luxury hotel and the attraction between them arises. Gibbs discovers that his team is not the only one working on the case.

        I don't want to star an international argument, but...

        It would be illogical for Canadians to try to pass as US citizens, especialy in the Middle East. Canadian tourists often put Canadian flags on their luggage to avoid being confused with US citizens.

        In fact the oposite situation would be more plausible : US operatives passing themselves as Canadians in order to work in certain countries where Canadians are more welcome than US citizens.

        And a lot of US tourists try to pass as Canadians by learning about our culture, geography and history, and having Canadian flags on themselves and their luggage. Once beyond customs, they want to be seen as Canadians.
