(ENDING CREDITS AND TITLE UP AND OUT) CIA, NSA. Courtesy of the Marines at the Colombian Embassy. Definitely CIA. GIBBS: And? GIBBS: We think he kept the money for himself. GIBBS: You have two dead Marines, Colonel. GONZALES: Now I know why everyone in the CIA hates these guys. Her husband was in the same unit as Jim's. I want them first thing in the morning. I'll need an answer soon. Insurgents kidnapped them. It's his voice, Agent Gibbs. Just discussing the case. Kidwell and Peary tended to take that approach to the extreme. O'DONNELL: No, but it's not Jim Kidwell unless he's figured out a way to make calls from the grave. Steady under pressure. TONY: Name once. TONY: No and. TONY: Sure. TONY: The funeral? TONY: When? TONY: Yeah, I'm trying to pull up the records on a dead Marine but my security access won't go through. That was two days ago. The perfect cover up. They died on a classified mission serving their country. WALSH'S OFFICE - DAY
GIBBS: Someone is going to a lot of trouble over a crank phone call, Colonel. When is another question entirely. Who is this? Who knew? Yes, the young man has been embalmed.

Summary: The team is called to investigate when a dead Marine's wife receives a phone call from her husband who supposedly died under suspicious circumstances. However, the case is complicated when someone impersonates the Marine's CO and Tony. As the investigation continues, the Marine turns up embalmed , having been killed two days after his funeral supposedly took place. Gibbs suspects CIA involvement, and the team soon find themselves tracking a rogue operative who killed the first Marine as a part of a cover-up in regards to a classified mission that ended in disaster and is now attempting to kill off the dead Marine's partner to make sure that the investigation is wrapped up while he flees with the money the CIA previously paid in an attempt to save the two kidnapped Marines. As such, the team find themselves racing against the clock as they attempt to rescue the deceased Marine's partner before another murder takes place and take down the rogue CIA agent once and for all.
