Cote de Pablo’s 15 Best 'NCIS' Moments Ever! (Video)

Undercover Lovers!

Talk about taking an assignment sexually. I mean, seriously! In “Under Covers,” Ziva and Tony go undercover as a crazy-in-love couple and have to make their relationship look real when they check into a hotel, just in case they’re being surveilled. “This episode was so much fun to shoot. Cote de Pablo, who plays Ziva, came to me right before we were shooting the first scene where we kissed, and said, ‘I’ve never kissed anyone on camera before,’” recalls Michael Weatherly (Tony). “I was expecting this timid little bird kiss, like a little peck, but she was like a lioness—she practically ate my head off! This is where TIVA (Tony+Ziva) started. We were told to really have fun with it, they wanted a sexy thing happening, and Cote delivered. I was just sort of along for the ride.”
