(BEAT) Um... burn him a copy, McGee. ABBY: Possible. But there's a simpler way. Claims intruder in military fatigues entered her home and tried to attack her. DUCKY: Yes. FORNELL: By whom? GIBBS: Special Agents Gibbs and Todd, NCIS. GIBBS: That's a hell of a question, Tobias. He's on administrative leave, pending the outcome of the investigation..
GIBBS: They say anything about Petty Officer Jessica Smith? I could use a drink. Just the end of your life as you know it, Captain. KATE: And hang herself? KATE: Isn't he supposed to be dead? KATE: No, all she kept telling me was to call her C.O., and let him know that the monsters are after her again. MCGEE: And uh... were you close to Jessica Smith at all? MCGEE: Before her breakdown, she was working for the Department of Acquisitions at the Pentagon. MCGEE: Which one's which? My turn. REYNOLDS: She was having an affair with a married man. SMITH: Monsters. TONY: She told the cops there was a man in her bedroom in camouflage utilities and body armor. That's what you're going to help me find out. WITTEN: That's impossible. We believe it's been triggered by the death of her fiancé in Iraq last month. We have their DNA.

Summary: Gibbs and his team are called to investigate a possible crime when a petty officer named Jessica Smith reveals that she was attacked by a man wearing battle fatigues and body armor but there's no such evidence to suggest that it took place. Her therapist Lt. Witten reveals that Smith has paranoid delusions which she believes was triggered by the death of her fiancee in Iraq the month before. Things take a shocking turn when Gibbs and Kate later find Smith dead in her room, having hung herself but Ducky later discovers she was already dead and the hanging was staged. With the help of FBI Special Agent Tobias Fornell, Gibbs and the team find out that she and her colleagues and their CO were embroiled in an ongoing investigation and suspect someone might have tried to silence Jessica. Meanwhile, when Kate reveals a secret of Tonys to humiliate him, he plays his ace by showing her a copy of an embarrassing photo of Kate at a sorority spring break party (which he discovered at the end of the last episode) and uses it as leverage to terrorize her.
