Jessica Knight’s Personal Drama May Also Get the Best Plot Twist Possible

NCIS season 21 has been over for quite some time now, leaving the show’s fans enough time to speculate until the next installment hits CBS this fall.

Though it’s been only several weeks since NCIS’s latest season ended on that major cliffhanger raising concerns about Jessica Knight’s future in the show, the fandom has already come up with all sorts of theories, each and every single one of which takes Jessica Knight to the most different directions in life.

While some don’t really care about Jessica’s big promotion having their fingers crossed for the character’s continuous romance with Jimmy Palmer, others surmise that Knight and Palmer’s future together doesn’t seem to be that bright anymore. However, there’s also another, unexpectedly simple theory that has a chance to turn out to be true.

The season 21 ending seemingly left no doubt that Jessica’s new position, which will take her to the other side of the country, will also inevitably separate her from Jimmy Palmer, her colleague for whom she developed deep romantic feelings, even though it all started as a light romance.

For those who already have their own predictions for season 22, the prospects here aren’t very promising. Knight’s decision will eventually lead to either her breakup with Palmer or rather to her change of heart regarding the new position that will result in Jessica staying in the MCRT.

Instead of all this, something else might indeed occur, and this is where Palmer finally steps in.

As some other fans suggest, Jimmy also can take everything under his control and, without having to end his relationship with Jessica, move with her to Camp Pendleton.

If something like this actually happens in the upcoming season, it may become one of the best solutions for Knight and Palmer’s storyline as the latter’s decision to let his girlfriend seize that unique opportunity will come as a solid proof of his profound feelings for her.

Meanwhile, Jessica has nothing but benefits in this case, getting her dream job and also avoiding the worst case scenario where she will have to choose either her career or personal happiness.

Jessica and Jimmy’s relationship will get a long-awaited update when NCIS drops its season 22 on CBS later this year.
