The NCIS team finds themselves in a familiar high-stakes situation this Monday, but with a twist. “After the Storm,” airing at 9:00 PM ET on CBS, sees the return of a familiar face – Special Agent Sam Hanna, played by LL COOL J. And his presence is crucial to cracking the case.

The team is investigating a murder in a D.C. motel room, but the suspect refuses to cooperate – with anyone except Sam Hanna. It’s a situation tailor-made for the seasoned agent, and his unique connection to the suspect might be the only way to get to the bottom of things.
