NCIS: Origin fans ‘devastated’ after shocking season finale cliffhanger

Monday night’s episode concluded with a heartbreaking final shot, which saw Special Agent Lala Dominguez’s seemingly lifeless body following a fiery car crash. Lala had been on her way to tell Gibbs the good news about her conversation with Macy, who agreed to drop the investigation into Pedro Hernandez’s murder, letting Gibbs off the hook.

Narrator Gibbs then revealed that Lala had been “coming to tell me she had saved me. I would only find out later what she did for me.”

A second viewer penned: “I am absolutely devastated by the ending of that show tonight. I truly hope that you don’t end the first season or the beginning of season 2 with the death of Lala. She was one of the central characters in the first season, and I’m just sad that she might be gone.”

Adding their voice to the discussion, another fan shared their theory: “After Ziva being alive after years of thinking she was dead…I don’t believe this. Lala is literally fine. #ncisorigins.”
