Outline

While Torres and Bishop are out jogging, Torres is hit by a speeding car. As Torres is comatose, NCIS and a vengeful Bishop must navigate a political minefield involving Xavier Zolotov, the spoiled son of an influential Russian family. During the course of the investigation, the team finds Zolotov murdered (presumably by his girlfriend, who was a material suspect in Torres’s previous undercover assignment years earlier). A strand of blonde hair is found at the crime scene; the girlfriend is blonde, leading the team to suspect her, though McGee is uneasy that Bishop may have followed through with her intention to kill Zolotov. However, after she confirms she did not do so at the end of the episode, McGee begins to suspect that Gibbs may have killed Zolotov to protect her.
