The amount of intolerance displayed within the various reviews of this episode on IMDb is absolutely staggering. Obviously the very mindset this episode criticizes is not uncommon among NCIS viewers. I get that the target audience of the show is conservative and middle aged but I sincerely hope that the reviews here don't mirror the opinion of the majority of the audience. The episode argues that civil liberties are a virtue to be embraced instead of being afraid of them and that personal preferences or dispositions and other peoples' intolerance toward that shouldn't disadvantage someone, which I believe to be a correct message. It's sad that many reviewers here openly express their own bigotry like that, if they aren't gay (as I am not gay) that's fine but the fact that they cite terms like "moral" and "offensive" clearly shows that some people here are still caught up in some pointless backwards thinking. Don't get me wrong: In American terms I myself am far from liberal but the point of the episode was TOLERANCE and I am shocked how little of that there is to find in the IMDb reviews of this episode I have read. I congratulate the writers, producers and first-time director Rocky Carroll on this great episode and hope that at least some people might have learned something from it. If this open-mindedness offends someone here I am truly sorry but maybe some of the conformists within this forum should ask themselves if their lifestyle is the way it is because they really want it to be or just because they themselves are in fact afraid of other peoples' intolerance toward them. Maybe that is the most important thing to consider after watching this episode...
