NCIS Season 22, Episode 6: Jessica Knight Goes Full Miss Congeniality in ‘Knight and Day’
Get ready for some undercover action with a comedic twist! In NCIS Season 22, Episode 6, titled “Knight and Day,” Special Agent Jessica Knight (Katrina Law) is thrown into an assignment unlike anything she’s tackled before. When the home of a high-level defense contractor is attacked, Knight is tasked with protecting his wife—a demanding, glamorous socialite played by Outer Banks star Brianna Brown.
According to showrunner Steven D. Binder, this “DINK-y” (dual income, no kids) socialite, Mrs. Martin, takes Knight on an unexpected journey. As Jess tries to keep her safe, Mrs. Martin pushes her boundaries with some sharp observations, questioning whether Knight’s tough exterior is hiding deeper insecurities. Between impromptu conversations about skincare, relationships, and covert skills that rival Knight’s own, Mrs. Martin keeps things interesting—like sneaking off for a tennis match mid-crisis.
While the NCIS team works to track down the dangerous threat targeting the couple, Knight finds herself in an unusual situation. Is it harder to protect a high-maintenance socialite than to negotiate with a hostage-taker? This episode promises laughs, personal growth, and a refreshing dose of “odd couple” chemistry.
When to Watch:
