The halloween episode as it is called by some people, I am not sure why. Sure Halloween was just around the corner, later that week but the case didn't really have anything to do with Halloween.
That had to happen sooner or later, and McGee knew it would. Still he took the risk of not deleting Ziva's pictures. But then again who wouldn't love to have those as a screensaver. He knew that she would hurt him if she found out apparently he is not that scared of her anymore not a much as he was in the beginning when Ziva first arrived at NCIS. Maybe probiliscious has a crush on our favourite assassin? It makes you wonder, doesn't it?
Tony barges into the bullpen and interupts McGee, when McGee indicates to him that he was speaking Tony says; 'Lets see who the boss likes best.' When two dogs fight for a bone, the third runs away with it. The third in this case being Ziva, who is choosen by Gibbs.
The case this week started with a women who found out that taking a shower when she arrived home wouldn't be so simple when blood filled water poured from the shower head. NCIS is called to the scene and in a water reserve they find a floating body. From that moment on the game is on and Gibbs is being targeted by the murderer. With the body they found an internet adres. When they open the website they find a video which shows the murder in between the footage of the murder they find clues to the next murder.
The death body leads the team to a house which is shared by some friends who are also bandmembers. The singer of the band a woman named Rose is shocked by the sudden death of her roomate but the male roomate just seems annoyed by her obvious attraction towards Gibbs. An annoyance Tony shares because Rose does not even give him a seconds glance.
When the video footage is covered in the news when Rose visits NCIS and tells them that she might know who shot the videos. The style of the video is very alike the style of a music video which her band made.
The blonde she wouldn't mind hanging out at NCIS ... right yeah it was really obvious what she was trying to say by that. Fishing to see if Gibbs had something with Ziva. And DiNozzo who was not interested in the Rose not his type as he put it, right because she didn't even give him a second glance when she saw Gibbs maybe.
Ziva and Tony investigate the claim and find a video artist who is indeed making videos very much alike the footage they found on the website. The thing which clears him however is that Gibbs receives a phonecall while Tony and Ziva are with the suspect.
Ducky analyses the message which Gibbs received and tells him that it is a very twisted individual. I like it when Ducky profiles, he is good at it I especially like his usual way of explaining things. And I like how he analyses both Gibbs and the killer at the same time.
There was one moment in this episode where I thought 'oh no not again!' and that was when they thought that Abby was being targetted again. Luckily this time they didn't do that. It would have been too easy to go for the whole Abby is in danger and needs help approach. Poor McGee why is it always him who is the victim of superglue?
In the end it turns out that the roomate of the first victim is the killer. He choose NCIS to investigate his crimes because the FBI would be too 'normal'. He choose Gibbs because he is a highly decorated Special Agent, And he commited the murders to become famous. He says to Gibbs that no one knew who the police officers where that caught Mahler or Manson, but that everyone knows the names of the serial killers. Unfourtunatly for him he got his 15 minutes of fame but NCIS deliberatly kept his name and picture out of the news.
And Tony he got to pick up yet another one of Gibbs medals.
All in all this show hasn't lost one bit of it's apeal, though I am still not a big fan of Vance I am glad to see that he seems to be concerned about the team instead of trying to tear them apart. Still I miss Jenny, I thought that she was a wonderful character which they have not nearly explored enough. There is so much more they could have shown us. To bad that we will never have a chance to see that. Still this show surprises me and I this season I have only seen good episodes.
So common' give it to me, give me your two cents on this episode.
