The episode opens with Gibbs in the autopsy room, opening a body bag while Ducky watches him. Todd is in the bag, with a bullet wound in the center of her forehead. Gibbs looks up to see a smiling Ari. McGee's eighth appearance. He was in the last five episodes of the season. Palmer's third appearance, all in a row. Lots of re-occurring characters in this episode. Gibbs tells Todd rule #7: "Always be specific when you lie." DiNozzo is again portrayed as a movie buff. This is a definite change in the character since the early episodes. Todd headsmacks DiNozzo. Todd gets kidnapped by Ari's crew. We see Ducky's meat puzzle for the first time. Gibbs talks to Cassidy by video in MTAC. Ari kills the blonde jogger working with him, and reveals he is Mossad to Todd. Gibbs shoots Ari in the shoulder at the end of the episode.
