Plot

[edit]

The NCIS team regroup in the aftermath of the Navy Yard bombing. Gibbs, Abby, Palmer, and Vance escape the explosion unscathed, while Ducky and McGee are hospitalized. Ziva and Tony remain unaccounted for, trapped in an elevator, though they are able to escape. The FBI is called in to aid in the hunt for Harper Dearing, only for Dearing to set a trap that kills four agents. The President authorises the use of "extreme prejudice" to bring Dearing to justice, but the trail runs cold when Dearing seemingly kills himself to avoid capture. Gibbs is unconvinced, and puts pressure on Dearing's sister-in-law to reveal his location. NCIS raid Dearing's home, only to find that he has once again eluded them. Gibbs convinces Vance that the only way to approach Dearing is to approach him alone; Vance agrees and Gibbs is finally able to confront Dearing, who compares himself with Gibbs and the pain of unjustly losing a child. Gibbs stabs and kills Dearing before Dearing can shoot him, and the episode ends two months later with Gibbs passing by a memorial to the victims of the bombing.
