Apparently they purposely made their hacking scenes sillier to see how far they could go (I think they were in an informal contest with another show's writers). That scene is their masterpiece.

I love that character. I don't even know her name, but my mom watches NCIS on repeat, and sometimes I watch with her just for that character

She's such a mall punk

She's like 40 and dresses like that at work.

Allegedly, NCIS and CIA had a sort of informal contest as to who could get away with the worst computer/technology scene. That's how this scene came about.

I love the part where they stop the hacking by pulling the monitor cable.

Nah they pulled the power cord not the monitor cable.

Power cord to a monitor. Not that it would matter if it was the PC power cable though since I kind of doubt they would have "the entire network" on one system

I mean both cords look the same soooo, also as dumb as that scene is the whole point was the hackers were targeting her system not anything else so shutting off that one system was good enough

[–] Thermal_shocked 1 points 9 months ago

Dude she was getting hacked.
