But one thing that is similar to the mothership is the push-pull relationship between Special Agent DeShawn Jackson (Sean Sagar) and AFP Liaison Officer Constable Evie Cooper (Tuuli Narkle) that is reminiscent to that of Special Agent Tony DiNozzo (Michael Weatherly) and Ziva David (Cote de Pablo).

“Don’t get me wrong,” Sagar tells Parade. “DeShawn does cop a lot of stick [British for "to be criticized, often in an unfair way, or for something that is not your fault"]. But I think I’m copping the best stick from the best person possible. And I know deep down it’s all love. I know she loves DeShawn Jackson. So, in my head, I’m like, ‘It’s such a beautiful dynamic that we have on and off screen that allows us to bring those characters to life for the audience.'”

As a result, the episode isn’t just about solving the murder, but it’s also about allowing viewers to go on this journey with DeShawn as he reveals more of his backstory to Evie. For Evie, it’s an opportunity to take that info and run with it.

“That’s part of the joy and the fun for sure,” Narkle says. “I’m Australian, and I didn’t realize how much of Sydney I hadn’t tapped into since being a part of this project. It’s been crazy. And to get to show the Brits [Sagar and Olivia Swann, who plays Mackie are British] everything that we’ve got to offer here on set, it just adds to that. I feel like the electricity and the spark that we have is the Sydney landscape as a part of that.”
NCIS: Sydney airs Friday nights at 9 p.m. ET/PT on CBS. Streams next day on Paramount+.
