Maria Bello made her NCIS debut on Monday night, and fans are welcoming her with open arms.

The ER alum is playing Agent Jacqueline Sloane, forensic psychologist that Director Vance (Rocky Carroll) personally wanted to recruit to the team.

Bello made her entrance in the opening of the episode, which was titled "Skeleton Crew." Her car allegedly breaks down and seeks refuge in Agent Gibbs' (Mark Harmon) home.
