Outline

The JAG staff find their usual routines being interrupted and their lives turned upside down as well as their dark secrets exposed when the badly decayed remains of Lieutenant Loren Singer who has been missing for three weeks are discovered in a tree in Potomac Park by a young scout boy searching for his arrow. As the Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS) team led by Senior Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs (Mark Harmon) investigates the circumstances surrounding Singer’s murder, evidence eventually puts Harm forward as the prime suspect while Sergei, Harm’s half-brother is believed to be the father of Singer’s unborn baby. As this goes on, NCIS must also break a terrorist who could contain key information on a potential terrorist attack.
