This is sweet, Margy - I agree with you. I do have one question - has anyone ever heard Leon refer to or call Abby by her first name - Abby - rather than Miss/Ms Sciuto? He calls the others by their surnames - Gibbs, DiNozzo, McGee, "our" David (from Enemies Foreign, I thought that was sweet), Palmer. Two exceptions - at least once he's called Gibbs "Jethro" and he does call Dr. Mallard "Ducky". But, unless I've missed something, Abby is always Miss (or Ms) Sciuto.

"From memory he always calls Abby Miss Sciuto. Usually it's Dr Mallard rather than Ducky as well. Do you find this valuable? |

As much as I don't care about Vance one way or another, I like the Un-Jennyness of him. He's very careless about the unimportant things: as long as they do the job well, they can dress as they want, be themselves and in control of their personal choices. It's good to see a director that acts as the director and not as a policeman of his employees. I don't think he and Abby have a relationship that could be even close to... well, being close, but I do think he respects her for what she does, and values her as an important asset for the agency.

Imo, respect from Vance is a big deal - one has to earn it! I like what you said about the "un-jennyness" of him - that is so true. 1 out of 1 found this valuable. Do you? |

He's completely professional, which is probably why he uses everyone surnames. MargyW, you've done it again! I've never really given much thought to this relationship but you summed it up so well and now that I think about it, it's another one to add to my list. When people ask me why I like the show, I say it's the relationships. A lot of people focus on the romantic ones, but it's the little ones like these that make me smile. Abby and Vance are not "friends", but anyone who's worked at a place necessarily has some interaction with the others, and I think the writers at NCIS are great at painting so many different kinds of connections. 3 out of 3 found this valuable.

"I agree. I wonder if they ever knew each other. Or Vance knows somebody like her."I think it is more that Vance recognizes the vulnerability within Abby and it brings out the protectiveness in him. He has a daughter remember. Another thing that he and Gibbs have in common. 1 out of 1 found this valuable. Do you? |
