What is Ziva's last episode on NCIS?
The season 10 finale "Damned If You Do" had its own storyline, which Glasberg "wove" into Ziva's exit.
Weatherly recently revealed on his Twitter account that a reunion between his character, Agent Anthony 'Tony' DiNozzo and Ziva David (Cote de Pablo) may be part of the upcoming 2023 season.
After eliminating Sahar and her associates, Ziva returns home to Paris to reunite with Tony and Tali in the season 17 episode "In the Wind".
Cote didn't immediately reveal why she made the decision, but in 2016 she opened up about her decision and said she didn't like the plans they had for her character. She explained: "Unfortunately because of political things and scripts not being good enough, I chose not to [return to NCIS].
As she leaves with Palmer to head to the airport to join her family in Paris, Gibbs steps off the elevator so they can exchange a quiet, lovely goodbye, which he concludes by whispering, “We're always here for you.”
While Tony and Ziva are finally living out their happily ever after in Paris with their daughter Tali, it isn't believed the couple are married.
When Gibbs stands up and walks towards Ziva, he leans in to whisper something. It looks like he's saying, "You're my daughter." Perhaps, in reference to Ziva calling Gibbs "the closest thing to a father that she has."
In season thirteen, it is revealed that they also consummated their relationship, leading to Ziva becoming pregnant. Though DiNozzo was not informed of this, Ziva gave birth to a daughter named Tali. In season thirteen ("Family First"), Ziva's farmhouse is destroyed in a mortar attack ordered by CIA Agent Trent Kort.
There is some great news for all McGee fans out there. Sean Murray is coming back for NCIS Season 20. He will be in the premiere episode and beyond. This has been confirmed thanks to behind-the-scene cast photos and some of the promotional shots for the first episode of the season.
It's no secret that DiNozzo is afraid of kids—but you'd never be able to tell by watching him interact with his daughter, Tali. While he just met her for the first time, this cute tot is already the apple of his eye. Click through to see the most heart-melting moments of the adorable father-daughter duo.

Keep reading for the lowdown... Pauley's exit at the end of season 15 of NCIS came as something of a shock to fans. On the show, her character resigned after an assassination attempt, but according to multiple reports, the real reason she left was because she had falling out with series lead Mark Harmon.
Executive Producer Gary Glasberg shares his thoughts and insights about the NCIS Season 13 finale, "Family First," including Michael Weatherly's farewell episode as Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo.

A Very Special Agent got a very special surprise on Michael Weatherly's farewell episode. Father's Day will never be the same for Very Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo. In the NCIS Season 13 finale, he unexpectedly found out that he had a daughter, Tali—launching him into a new chapter of his life with a lot to learn.
In that moment, he whispers in Ziva's ear “Aht lo leh-vahd,” which means “you are not alone” in Hebrew. Ziva tells him "I know", before smiling at Tony and walking away to catch her flight.
When her love interest, Tony DiNozzo (Michael Weatherly) said goodbye to the team in 2016, it was revealed that he and Ziva shared a daughter, and that Ziva had been killed in an explosion. Cue the waterworks. Now, thanks to Ellie Bishop (Emily Wickersham), we can all rest easy, as she discovered that Ziva is not dead.

"Something Blue": McGee marries Delilah, and Gibbs gives McGee the watch that his father gave him when he got married.
Who is DiNozzo in love with?
Jeanne and Tony start dating
We were first introduced to Jeanne Benoit, a beautiful doctor, in Season 4. What fans didn't know at the time is that DiNozzo was working undercover as "Tony DiNardo" and started dating Jeanne to get closer to her father, infamous arms dealer René Benoit (a.k.a. La Grenouille).
Ziva, undercover, goes on a date with a suspected serial killer (a Marine); Tony finds the fifth victim; the suspect threatens Ziva, who resists and shoots him with his piece. Gibbs and the team investigate, solve, and find a second killer.
As it stands, David McCallum is here to stay at NCIS — albeit in a limited capacity. In season 15, the NCIS Ducky character retired from the role of M.E. to become NCIS historian, with his autopsy colleague Jimmy Palmer (Brian Dietzen) taking his place.
Ziva asks Tony to call her; he tells her that he loves her.
Cote de Pablo delighted fans when she made a surprise return to NCIS in season 16 and 17 of the long-running police series. When fans last saw Ziva David, she was saying her goodbyes to the team before jetting off to Paris to reunite with her partner Tony and their daughter, Tali.

After she was revealed to be alive and in hiding at the beginning of NCIS season 16, Ziva returned in NCIS season 17 to meet agent Gibbs, and in episode 11, "Ephemera," Tony and Ziva finally were reunited off-screen.
"NCIS" delivered a shocker in its Season 16 finale Tuesday, but it's one fans will love: the return of former NCIS and Mossad agent Ziva David (Cote de Pablo). The beloved character, long thought to be dead before an episode earlier this season hinted she was alive, returned at the very end of the season finale.
