NCIS Los Angeles: Does Callen’s New Lady Have a Connection to his Past?

105795_d0187b
Now that Kensi and Deeks are all coupled up on NCIS: Los Angeles, it looks like Cupid has set his sights on Callen.

In fact, Callen (Chris O’Donnell) is going to get more than a little cozy with Joelle (Elizabeth Bogush), who recently hinted that she’d like to be a part of Callen’s life. “I think it’s good for him,” O’Donnell told TVGuide.com when we visited the set. “Callen needs a little love in his life.”

However, they’ll have to navigate some serious trust issues along the way. After all, Callen did lie to her about what he does for a living. “He doesn’t let a lot of people into his life,” O’Donnell says. “He’s so insecure about that. He doesn’t know anything about his real life.”

But Callen may have reason to be cautious. Let’s not forget that executive producer Shane Brennan teased at the start of Season 6 that Callen’s new love interest would have a mysterious connection to his past. “[It] ends up being connected to someone that we’ve seen in several past episodes,” O’Donnell says. “There’s more to the story.”

Neric: Geek Love !?

On screen this dynamic duo is known for their awkward and entertaining scenes. But off screen, the two are best “Buddies” as Renée Felice Smith, who plays Nell Jones, says during an interview on The Talk last year.

“We’re just buddies. Yeah I mean we really entertain each other.”
Barrett Foa, who plays Eric Beale, adds.
“Yeah, its pretty natural. We’re both goofballs! We just make fools of each other and everyone else gets to laugh with us, or at us.”

Slowly but steadily we, the fans, have managed to learn more about what is known to the “Fandom” as “Neric”. Recently more has come to light, though many have been focused on the increasingly revealing and tense “Densi” (Deeks and Kensi) relationship. The Christmas episodes, Humbug and Free Ride, have shown more about the characters feelings for each other.

[5x23 - Exposure] Though short, the scene where the Tech Team write down secrets for one another, is a sweet one.

Building up to these special partner moments Renée, aka Nell Jones, was brought in a special guest. Only to be shown when truly necessary, like a less frequent Nate Getz, played by Peter Cambor. Thank goodness the actors got along so well or the team we know so well could be very different.
