"Whiskey Tango Foxtrot" is part of the military alphabet code which spells WTF, which is a euphemistic abbreviation for a phrase containing a swear word.
The premiere had to be quickly re-written following Cote de Pablo's last minute decision not to renew her contract.
This episode marks the first physical appearance of McGee's love interest Delilah Fielding. She was first mentioned in season 10 finale "Damned if you do".
