When did Kasie and Piper split up in NCIS?
After a float at a Turkey Trot 5k exploded as it was shot at, the team worked together to pull security footage of the event.
They believed it was an atta.ck on the admiral serving as grand marshall attending the occasion and Jessica tried to use the explosion as an excuse to get out of her sister’s Thanksgiving dinner.
But Agent Alden Parker (Gary Cole) insisted that family comes first and so pushed Jessica to attend the dinner, with forensic expert Kasie Hines (Diona Reasonover) for support.
She was only able to accompany Jessica to the evening meal as it was revealed that Kasie had broken up with Piper.

Back in March, NCIS explained that Kasie had struck up a romance with lab technician Piper (Tess Aubert).
Fans were delighted to see Kasie finally have a love interest after four years in the police procedural.
Piper had made minor appearances in the episodes Starting Over and All Hands in season 19.
Kasie confirmed she was in a relationship but it was still early days so she didn’t want to discuss it too much.

Unfortunately, there was no mention of Kasie’s girlfriend after this, leaving many to wonder if they were still an item.
But the latest episode confirmed that they were no longer together, without explaining any details of how and when they broke up.
Given Piper was last featured in March, their split would have occurred sometime over the summer.
Whether or not Kasie will have another romance in the near future, remains unknown.
Unfortunately, NCIS won’t be returning for another new episode next week.
The drama is going to be taking a short hiatus away from the small screen.
There is no need to worry though as NCIS will be returning for episode nine, Higher Education, the following week on Monday, December 5.
According to the show’s synopsis, the instalment will welcome back Timothy McGee’s (Sean Murray) wife.
The description for the episode reads: “NCIS investigates the d3ath of a college student who was killed while running across the street and had connections to McGee’s wife, Delilah (Margo Harshman).
Harshman was last seen in NCIS last year for season 19’s episode seven, Docked.
But what state will her relationship with McGee be in upon her return?
NCIS season 20 airs on Sundays on CBS in the USA. A UK release date hasn’t been announced.
