The chances of NCIS Agent Kensi Blye (played by Daniela Ruah) getting pregnant are slim, but the adoption process for her and husband Marty Deeks (Eric Christian Olsen) has proven equally challenging. However, a clue in the latest episode of the CBS spin-off, NCIS: Los Angeles, has teased their search could be coming to an end.

Kensi and Deeks could be adopting a new character for the NCIS franchise in the next episodes of the LA spin-off's 13th season.

The current run will be taking a break this week, before treating fans to a double-bill next episode.

Meanwhile, fans are still speculating what the agents and hopeful parents' run-in with a young refugee could mean for the new season.

In episode eight, A Land of Wolves, the NCIS face off against a mysterious militia group whilst aiding a group of migrants across the US-Mexico border.

"I want to be," the agent admitted, sadly.

"Just haven't been that lucky. Like you said, sometimes things don't work out the way you want them to."

Their teammates Sam Hanna (LL Cool J) and G Callen (Chris O'Donnell) eventually caught up to them, and Rosa was introduced to Kensi's husband.

Deeks assured Rosa she would make it home safely, and his protective side leapt out again when they discussed her situation at home.
