What to expect from NCIS 21?

Season 21 follows a case-of-the-week structure, common in criminal procedurals, with additional season-long plot lines. It is expected to continue the storylines from the previous season. One example is the cliffhanger about Agent Torres. Towards the end of Season 20, Torres faced a pistol pointed at a previous enemy.

However, the Season 21 teaser indicates that the spy will encounter other challenges. The main plot for the forthcoming season will revolve around Torres being arrested for murder. Season 20 had Palmer admitting his love for Knight in front of the crew, suggesting that their romance would likely go further in NCIS season 21.

The official synopsis for the show is as follows:

"Naval Criminal Investigative Service Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs leads a group of colorful personalities in investigating crimes -- ranging from murder and espionage to terrorism -- that have evidence connected to Navy and Marine Corps personnel. The team includes MIT graduate Timothy McGee, Ellie Bishop, who specializes in international threat assessment, charismatic and unpredictable Nick Torres, and forensic psychologist Jack Sloane. Dr. Donald "Ducky" Mallard brings his vast experience in forensics into play to help solve cases."
