Greatest thing to happen
Olsen and Ruah also revealed that since Ruah's real-life pregnancy was not incorporated in "NCIS: Los Angeles" Season 8, the writers were able to come up with a way to deal with it. She and Olsen got to shoot eight episodes of the story arc for their characters.
The pregnancy turned out to be the greatest thing that happened to Kensi and Deeks, gushed Olsen. The storyline that came out of it would never have happened to the onscreen couple without the pregnancy.
Life-altering condition
Ruah agreed that the life-altering condition that Kensi will find herself in turns out best for their characters. Every season for eight years, they always tried to look for things to keep the audience interested and Ruah's pregnancy came out to be perfectly timed after all.
The life-altering condition Ruah talked about will create a series of events that Kensi and Deeks will have to get over with. It will happen very early in the season and it is said to change the whole NCIS team's dynamics.
Kensi's ex-fiance
Ruah also talked about her character's ex fiance Jack Simon and his possible return in the upcoming season of "NCIS: Los Angeles". It could be remembered that Jack was a former marine who suffered from post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD). He worked for the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) as the White Ghost.
In Season 5, Kensi was supposed to be the one to assassinate him during an assignment in Afghanistan. She missed out in killing him and got captured herself. Her team, which included Deeks, was able to get her released.
Jack Simon's return to "NCIS: Los Angeles" has not been confirmed yet. If ever, he can surely make things more interesting in Kensi and Deeks's relationship.
The premiere of "NCIS: Los Angeles" Season 8 will be shown on October 2 on CBS.
