Like his coworkers, Deeks (Eric Christian Olsen) has a complicated and rather mysterious personal history. Every so often a new fact will bubble to the surface, and writers are trying to work out a time to dive into at least one aspect of Deeks' pre-NCIS life, most notably his time as a lawyer.
"Yeah, we were supposed to do that last year, but then Daniela Ruah [Kensi] went off and had a kid," Olsen told Glamour, referencing season 5's Afghanistan story arc. "So I know what the backstory is behind it, and at some point they'll go into why he gave up being a lawyer."
