Top 10 moments from 'NCIS: New Orleans' episode 'More Now'

If you will recall from a previous episode of NCIS: New Orleans, Pride has been focused on a case involving a former informant, who he realized was the person behind the bombing of a gala he attended with his team, daughter Laurel, and her boyfriend. The bomb was meant to kill Pride and he has been on a rampage since he ended up putting the wrong man in prison.

“More Now” gives us a glimpse into the detective work Pride has done on his own in order to connect multiple murders to whom Pride calls Baitfish.

After a doctor and his companion are murdered, Pride ends up letting his team in on his investigation. This leads them to a clinic that Barlow worked for, where they were a front for a drug ring. They work with a fellow federal agent named Sonja, who is undercover.

We also see the return of Sasha Broussard, who is still trying to escape the legacy of her family. Pride is hoping he can find Baitfish and stop everything once and for all, but as always, nothing is what it seems for this criminal. Did the revelation from this episode catch you by surprise? Check out some of our top moments from “More Now” and tell us what you think will happen as the case moves forward.

3. Defending herself

After Sasha Broussard’s cousin is killed in prison, the team discovers a security guard is most likely part of Baitfish’s circle as he eliminates people associated with the family so he can move up in power. The guard had killed Frank under orders and later goes to Sasha’s house in an attempt to kill her, but she fights him off.

2. Pride’s realization

Throughout the episode, Pride tried to figure out who Baitfish’s partner was, since all they knew was it was someone named ‘Leone.’ Then, Pride realizes it means ‘Lion’ in Italian and that the lion is a symbol for the Latendale Group, who gives money to the clinics that were involved in the drug trafficking. The group has one shareholder, who is none other than Sasha Broussard.
