    One of my favorite Tony episodes

    This is episode is so special, when I rewatch it, I make sure I can't be disturbed. It's an emotional roller coaster that has one of the most incredible buildup and endings one could think of. Mad, sad, happy, love all pictured perfectly Michael Weatherly handled the romance and bromance, which was so well written, like only he can, heartfelt.

    Good one. They find something on the body that becomes a valuable clue

    Finally!

    Up until now I'd treated NCIS like mildly intriguing background noise. There were upsetting sticking points and not really a lot to keep someone watching. This episode has more heart and intrigue than the previous 3.5 seasons combined.

    Gibbs has to answer to a chain of authority, Tony has to grapple with his feelings, and two really likable characters are introduced. Fun twist at the end in two ways. Enjoyable!

      Tony throws the knife at the cardboard dummy at the range. It enters just below the "heart". When he retrieves the knife, it is nearer the dummy's waist/groin area.
