I didn't mind "Aliyah" either - it was a decent episode. But they are assassinating the characters.
I didn't see Ziva's ultimatum as her being nasty, though - it seemed to me like her playing Gibbs a little, because she needed him to pick Tony over her, or something.
Nakeisha gave me the same reasoning for Jimmy's presence, which I guess makes sense - but as they haven't shown me any of the Tony/Jimmy relationship beyond the very strange talk they had in Bounce, my mind doesn't immediately go to that place when I see him in the bullpen. It does make sense, but I'd forgotten about it because they haven't given me enough of it to remember.
I wanted someone to hug and love Tony as well - but every time he's been hurt, Abby hugs him in a way that hurts him. Why couldn't she have given him a nice, gentle hug instead? It would've been that much sweeter. There was no need for "humor" there.
I have no idea if they can salvage the show. It's in pieces as is, the team not trusting each other one iota...
