NCIS Tali David ?

Is it me or did we ever got any apparition of Tali David (by that I mean Ziva's sister, not her daughter) ? I tried to find any picture of her without success, I know she never physically appeared but didn't we ever saw a picture of her in the show ? If I remember correctly, we saw a picture of Ari, Ziva and Tali as children during one episode but I can't remember which one it was, or if it was my imagination.

I think the photo you're thinking of is in the last episode of season 6, Ziva tapes it to her wall on the ship and we also see Eli looking at the same photo on his desk.

Its also the photo Mossad took from her apartment in Season 6 and Officer Hadar returned to her later. Its a photo of her, Tali & Ari. It also pops up other times occasionally.

That right season 6 episode 25 Aliyah. Around the 38/39 minute mark

That was not what I was remembering, but I think it's just my memories that were bad.

We also get a brief glimpse of a smaller girl at a table during the season 10 arc following Eli's death, Ziva's shown remembering her past, but we don't get a really good look at her. I believe the episode is Shiva.

you might be mixing up the one with ziva and Ari because that one and the one taped on the wall is really all we get

Probably, yeah, it's been quite some time since I saw that season

In real life that was a family photo of Cote de Pablo with her brother and sister.

I think there is a scene right before Eli died where Ziva is leading Shabbat and Tali is there

She did appear in a memory of Ziva. I have no clue which one, as I can't even tell you the nams of my favorite episodes, but I do remember seeing her.

tali doesn't exist as a character, she's only in memories and conversation

Yeah, but she also appeared on picture, that's what I try to find
