*It's revealed that Callen, Sam and Deeks are working on a joint task force for an undercover sting operation, Kilbride having loaned them out.
*It's also revealed that thanks to funding Kilbride received, OSP and the Boatshed have gotten some upgrades with the Boatshed now having an Armory of its own, one that is stored in an unknown place above the main room which can be activated when a switch that's been placed into a wooden pole is pressed, the Armory itself shown to contain backpacks, bulletproof vests, guns, ammo and three silver crate boxes underneath, allowing the NCIS agents in the room to stock up on supplies before they leave to go out into the field with another press of the switch sending the Armory back up to its original place.
==Trivia==
