"Ziva shouldn't have got lost on the ship - naval vessels have standardized compartment numbering system - a smart woman like Ziva should have been prepared prior to deployment"

"Personally I feel Tony being sea sick and Ziva getting a little lost is a minor issue.
Tony hasn't been on a ship for quite sometime, and sea sickness can be a random thing. There are things to consider on a ship, the smell (as McGee pointed out) what people are eating... whats cooking...so I can see it would be plausable.
I think the writers have toned Ziva's character down, as they have done for quite sometime now in some ways. I feel they are making her less 'macho'. To me they have been adding more softer, femine touches to her, taking her character in a slightly different direction...as one would change in some things after six years. Ziva still kicking butt when she has to is still a big part of who Ziva really is, and I would imagine it will always be a part of her character. JMO. "

"Its not so much the sharpness of the spear as the integral errors in its internal control systems that were present when it arrived and don't appear to have been corrected.

Though its not totally clear as yet what part this spear will play in the fineale. Since we appear to be in the off year for damsels in distress I'm hoping for something exciting that involves the whole team."
