Marine brat Maddie Tylor, in college, best base friend of Gibbs's late daughter Kelly, asks his help against Marine Sergeant Rudi Haas, who she claims is stalking her since he returned from Iraq with unreturned romantic intentions. Gibbs literally twist Haas's arm, but shortly after he fails to prevent her being abducted from her home in Haas' car. Former Army Major Max Bourdais's security firm recently recruited Haas. When the team finds Haas, it's a corps nailed to the floor to torture him extensively, murdered before the kidnapping, but died within minutes from extreme seafood allergy; Maddie's place was trashed, presumably the murderers got her address from Haas. Haas's car GPS was tracked by Bourdais's firm; Special Inspector-general for Iraqi Reconstructions representative Marine Colonel Stacey Radcliffe confirm two other firm employees, Danny Coyle and Judd, were suspected of a $4,000,000 theft there, but lost the girl's trace. Then they realize it wasn't' about the girl ... Written by KGF Vissers
it doesn't get better than this. Gibbs is contacted by a young woman named Maddie who was a friend of his daughter Kelly when they were little. She is being stalked and has turned to Gibbs for help.
This is one of the show's best episodes. It opens very dramatically with Tony firing on the run, killing two men and then jumping into the water to rescue Gibbs and Maddie who are trapped underwater in a car. The episode resumes after the credits 24 hrs before and the story unfolds. Maddie has come to Gibbs because she is being stalked by a guy, a Marine, who she dated briefly before he was sent to Irag. Now that he is back, he has been attempting to resume their relationship; or so it seems. There is more to the situation then Gibbs and Maddie realize. Gibbs wants very much to help Maddie so that, in some way, he can makeup for the fact that he was not able to help his wife and daughter. Tony's rescue attempt to save both Maddie and Gibbs is dramatic. The very poignant scene where Gibbs has apparently drowned and sees Shannon and Kelly and Kelly tells him to go back really touched me.
To reiterate other reviewers: this is why I watch this show.
