### NCIS Season 22: Showrunner Drops Bombshell About Jessica Knight and Alden Parker’s Futures
As NCIS season 21 wrapped up about a month ago, fans were left pondering over two major mysteries awaiting resolution in the upcoming season. The latest season delved into Jessica Knight’s monumental promotion, hinting at the personal struggles she may face if she leaves the MCRT. Meanwhile, Alden Parker’s vision after sustaining injuries during a mission hinted at a dark aspect of his past.
While Jessica Knight has been a focal point of speculation among fans for the next season’s plot twists, showrunner Steve D. Binder hinted at a surprising turn regarding Alden Parker’s mystery. Many fans speculated about the identity of the young girl, Lily, seen in Parker’s vision on a boat, with theories suggesting she might be Parker’s deceased little sister, explaining his aversion to boats. However, Binder’s recent statements cast doubt on these assumptions.
In a recent interview, Binder revealed that Parker’s mystery is not as straightforward as fans may believe. He emphasized that only the show’s writers possess all the necessary information, and there are hidden details that will only become clear in hindsight.
Binder’s remarks suggest that while Lily holds significance to Parker, the theory about her being a relative may not hold true. However, it’s evident that she played a significant role in Parker’s life, contributing to his fear of boats and the events that transpired aboard them.
The good news for fans eager for answers is that the mystery surrounding Parker and Lily won’t remain unresolved for long, as NCIS season 22 is set to premiere on CBS this fall.
