Something Blue NCIS_ Season 14, Episode 23

Alright, NCIS fans, grab your tissues and maybe a cup of tea, 'cause we're about to dive into the feels-fest that was "Something Blue". This episode had me grinning like an idiot one minute and wiping away tears the next. Let's break down these aww-worthy moments, shall we?

NCIS: 9 Reasons "Something Blue" is the Best Episode Ever

1. McGee's Adorkable First Dance Song Choice

When McGee told Torres their first dance song was "She Blinded Me with Science," I nearly spat out my coffee. It's just so... McGee, you know? And his explanation? Pure gold.

"'Cause when we first met, we bonded over science."

I mean, come on! If that's not relationship goals, I don't know what is.

2. Vance's Sage Advice

When Vance pulled McGee aside to give him some marital wisdom, it hit me right in the feels. There was something so touching about Vance, a man who's been through so much, sharing his experience.

Vance: "Never take it for granted. Not for one second. And don't blow it."

Not gonna lie, I might have written that down for future reference.

3. McGee and Delilah's Sweet Exchange

When these two lovebirds declared that the only guest that mattered was each other? Cue the collective "aww" from living rooms across America.

McGee: "There's only one guest I really care about coming anyway."
Delilah: "Who?"
McGee: "What do you mean, who? You."
Delilah: "Aww. Me, too, you."

If you didn't smile at that, you might want to check if you're actually a robot.

4. Gibbs Being a Total Dad

Seeing Gibbs calm down a panicky McGee at the hospital was like watching a master class in fatherly wisdom. It reminded me of all those times my dad talked me down from freaking out over life stuff.

Gibbs: "Take a breath."

Simple, effective, and so very Gibbs.

5. The Big Reveal

The moment McGee and Delilah found out they were expecting? Priceless. McGee's reaction was the cherry on top.

Doctor: "You're expecting."
McGee: "Expecting what?"

I'm pretty sure I laughed so hard I scared my cat. And Delilah's deadpan response? Chef's kiss.

6. Abby's Excited Reaction

Abby climbing onto the bed to hug McGee and Delilah after hearing the news was peak Abby. Her enthusiasm is so infectious, I found myself grinning ear to ear.

Abby: "The best news ever!"

Truer words were never spoken, Abby.

7. The Surprise Wedding Announcement

When McGee and Delilah revealed they were getting married right then and there? I think I actually squealed. The way they referred to the team as their "other family" had me reaching for the tissues.

8. Gibbs Giving McGee His Watch

This moment. THIS MOMENT. Gibbs passing down his father's watch to McGee was the epitome of a father-son relationship. I'm not crying, you're crying!

Gibbs: "Who better than you, Tim?"

And the "Breathe, Tim" engraving? Excuse me while I go sob in the corner.

9. The Wedding Itself

The actual wedding was everything I hoped it would be and more. Intimate, meaningful, and surrounded by their NCIS family. It felt like a perfect culmination of years of character development and relationships.

And there you have it, folks! Nine moments that prove why we keep coming back to NCIS week after week. It's not just about the cases; it's about these characters who've become like family to us. Now, if you'll excuse me, I need to go rewatch this episode and ugly cry into my popcorn.
