NCIS: Origins’ Austin Stowell Breaks Down Pride’s Arrival — And His Feud With Gibbs

“NCIS” legend Dwayne Pride has made his “NCIS: Origins” debut, but his welcome was anything but warm.

Fans of the franchise know that Dwayne Pride and Gibbs share a friendship later in adulthood, but the CBS prequel reveals that the pair got off to a rocky start when they first meet at a bar in the ’80s. After enjoying a few drinks with his father, Gibbs steps away to use the restroom. When he returns, he witnesses a scuffle and sees his father get clocked in the face by the bar’s pianist, seemingly after simply requesting a song in honor of his late wife.
