Pauley Perrette, who won hearts as the quirky and brilliant Abby Sciuto on NCIS, left the show under difficult circumstances, leading many to believe a return was impossible. However, insiders say the only way she would ever consider coming back is if the original environment — including key leadership changes behind the scenes — were completely restructured to ensure a safer and more supportive workplace. While fans continue to hope for even a brief cameo, it’s clear that Pauley’s comeback would only happen if those major conditions were met, putting her personal well-being first.
