The titles of the first three episodes of "NCIS" season 14 have been revealed, and they seem to point to a certain sinister direction for the post-Dinozzo era of the most watched drama.

The "NCIS" season 14 premiere is titled "Rogue." The second and third episodes are titled "Being Bad" and "Privileged Information," respectively.

It is speculated that the character being referred to in the season opener is Nick, a newcomer to "NCIS" season 14 to be played by "That 70s Show" alum Wilmer Valderrama.

Nick is an undercover agent who was believed to have died in the middle of a mission, only to surface several years as a "loose cannon" that Agent Gibbs (Mark Harmon) will not relate well to.

At the San Diego Comic Con, it was revealed that Nick will indeed be a headache to majority of the team come "NCIS" season 14, but the migraine will be on Gibbs.

"He doesn't play well with others and he clashes the most with Mark," Valderrama revealed during a sit-down interview with Buddy TV.

During Nick's mission, he decided to cut off his communication with his team. His cover was ultimately blown and now someone dangerous is hot on his trail. Because of this, he returns to the real world with difficulty.

"He's forced to return to Washington to warn everyone about a possible threat," Valderrama said of Nick. "He returns from the shadows and can't find himself at ease," the actor went on to say about his "NCIS" season 14 character.

The menace is not the only thing preventing him to be a team player again. Another is the fact that he has been away and alone for a long while.

"He can't find himself at home again. He can't find himself comfortable... He's unstable, he's a lone wolf," Valderrama described Nick, adding that he only does things based on his "own instincts."

It looks like Nick is the likeliest person to go rogue. If the namesake of the "NCIS" season 14 premiere is about him, it looks like the show will give him a big entrance to the show.
