I know I winced at the quick shot of somebody moving Deeks’ neck from one side to the other.
Later shots of Kensi cuddling Deeks on his stretcher and then dragging the stretcher through the wilderness prove that Deeks won’t be bounding up and jogging out of Mexico on his own.
While I doubt NCIS: LA would paralyze Deeks so soon after putting Kensi through the same thing, I wouldn’t rule out a brain injury.
I may not be a doctor, but even I know that’s not something that bodes well for somebody who’s unconscious after a traumatic explosion.
