Ep 1. Let Fate Decide

In NCIS: Los Angeles season 11 episode 1, titled "Let Fate Decide," the team is back and ready for action. The episode starts off with Callen and Sam investigating a terrorist group that is planning to attack a military funeral. Meanwhile, Kensi and Deeks are trying to figure out if they're ready to take the next step in their relationship.

As the team works to stop the terrorist attack, they soon realize that the terrorists have an unexpected ally: a former NCIS agent who has gone rogue. This rogue agent is played by guest star Gerald McRaney, who adds an extra layer of intensity and complexity to the episode.

One of the things that makes this episode stand out is the way it seamlessly weaves together two very different storylines: the investigation into the terrorist attack and Kensi and Deeks' personal struggles. Both storylines are given equal weight and screen time, allowing viewers to become fully invested in both.

The episode also features some standout moments from both the main cast and guest star McRaney. LL Cool J, in particular, shines as Sam as he grapples with the possibility of losing someone close to him. The chemistry between all the actors is as strong as ever, and it's clear that they're all fully dedicated to their roles.

Overall, "Let Fate Decide" is a strong start to NCIS: Los Angeles season 11. The episode is action-packed, emotional, and features some great performances from both the main cast and guest star Gerald McRaney. Fans of the show won't be disappointed.
