My cousin who was like a brother to me growing up commited suicide this weekend... it’s so painful losing someone this way. Life does get hard and we’re all going through something but please check on your loved ones. You really don’t know what people are going through and how checking on someone could make them feel a little better

I really can’t even form the words to describe how I feel about Granger’s farewell.  I just can’t.

Did a quick search but didn't see this posted. Was in the latest TV Guide.

My dash is filled with images and gifs of Granger and all of his wonderful looks and quips and while I find myself laughing - because how could I not? - my heart is so so heavy knowing that we won’t see any more of those.

I’m also not going to handle his (presumed) death on the show well at all, knowing that it came from his real life illness and death.

Rise Up

R.I P. Miguel Ferrer, aka Assistant Director Owen Granger. You will be so missed.

Sullivan. Dom. Renko. Hunter.

Countless close calls with countless other agents.

And now this.

Henrietta Lange has never handled losing any of her agents especially well, and though this one is different – since he wasn’t an agent anymore, and was never one of hers – she feels the loss much deeper than the others in many ways.

Granger.

Sitting at her desk, staring blankly around the bullpen, Hetty thinks how easily it could have been her. She thinks that maybe it should have been her – God knows she probably deserves it more than he did. 

It seems like only yesterday when Assistant Director Owen Granger made his unorthodox, and unwanted, arrival to the Office of Special Projects.  It had taken some time for the team and for her to warm up to his presence, but eventually, he became the closest thing their dysfunctional family had to a patriarch. 

And now she has to tell them that he is gone.

Before she can decide when and how best to let the team know, Hetty feels Callen’s eyes on her, silently probing, sensing something isn’t right.  She can barely lift her gaze to meet his and she knows it has to be now.

“Mr. Callen,” she clears her throat but it doesn’t rid her voice of the heavy emotion weighing it down. “Bring your team to my office, please. I have called Nell and Eric as well. There is something I need to tell you all.”

Callen hesitates for a moment, his eyes narrowing, trying to get a read on her.  Then, he nods and heads towards the gym where she knows the rest of the team is working out.  A few minutes later, Callen, Sam, Kensi, Deeks, Nell, and Eric are crowded into her open office.  She looks at them – her makeshift family.

“Hetty?”  Callen prompts.  “If this is about your resignation, I think—“

“No, Mr. Callen, it’s not about that.”  She sighs sadly and smooths her hands over the top of her desk before meeting the stares of the team.  “I received a call just a few minutes ago, from the hospital.  Assistant Director Granger died in his sleep early this morning.”

The silence that follows is deafening.  Kensi has grabbed Deeks’s hands and presses her forehead to his shoulder.  Nell is staring at Hetty, eyes wide and Eric is staring at Nell.  Both Callen and Sam look like they’re looking for something to say, but the words don’t come.

“Go home.”  Hetty’s words cuts through the quiet.  “All of you.  I will have others work on narrowing down the leads.  You will get back to work tomorrow.”

They all look at Hetty, then at each other.  Sam is the first to find his voice.

“I’m staying right here, and I’m going to find whoever is responsible for this.”

One by one, without a hint of hesitation, the rest of the team joins Sam, nodding in agreement.

A sense of pride swells inside of Hetty – it’s when this team is fighting for those closest to them that they are at their very best.

Owen Granger deserves nothing less.

Granger started off as one of my least favourite characters but as we saw more of him I gre to love him. Miguel's delivery and portrayal of this character was fantastic. He was so funny and deadpan. He will be missed.
