Probie

Synopsis:
While on duty, McGee kills a man who is later discovered to be an undercover police detective. When Jenny decides to approve the investigation on McGee, the NCIS team is forced to prove that McGee is not guilty, pushing Gibbs' relationship with Jen to the limit. Meanwhile, Tony is troubled by his past.

New Character Development / Insights:
  • Gibbs apologizes to McGee for letting him go alone to face the interrogators. Gibbs breaks his own rule. "I let you down., I should have gone with you to Metro."
  • Gibbs doesn't think McGee knows how to lie.
  • McGee is having a hard time accepting that he killed someone.
  • Gibbs and Tony believe McGee's explanation while Ziva & Jenny do not (Jenny basing her opinion on her own screw up in Paris in '99 when Gibbs covered for her).
  • Tony is very protective of McGee, defending and arguing with Ziva about him, then showing up to cheer him up.
  • Tony made deposits to a sperm bank while in college because "it was easier than giving blood."
  • Ziva has as many deviations of thoughts about sex as Tony does
  • Abby is ready to assist an autopsy.
  • Gibbs doesn't know what a doppelganger is
  • Gibbs: "I don't leave my people behind. It's a Marine thing."
  • Abby never leaves home without handcuffs.
  • Gibbs is upset because Chip framed DiNozzo for murder and then McGee kills a cop so he wonders if someone broke a mirror.
Funny Moments:
  • Discussing a hypothetical kidney transplant for Tony's hypothetical offspring from the sperm bank: "You wouldn't understand; you're not a parent."
  • Palmer's reaction to Abby wanting to assist the autopsy
  • Gibbs' reaction to Tony's phone message
  • Gibbs and Jenny's conversation in/off the elevator
  • Ziva teasing Tony about the sperm bank. Tony: "You're a sick chick David."
  • Tony telling McGee that he wet himself the first time he shot someone
  • McGee's aromatherapy session
  • Tony mixing up & forgetting the rules.
Trivia:
  • Ziva: Leazazel!
    This is a Hebrew curse. In English, this actually means: hell. As in other cases, Ziva mispronounces the Hebrew.
  • Gibbs Rules:
    Rule #8 - Never take anything for granted. (Abby to McGee)
  • Trivia: a medical degree is not required to do an autopsy or to be a coroner
  • TRIVIA: When Tony is on the phone with the sperm bank and Gibbs is coming by, he doesn't want Gibbs to know about his problems with the sperm bank, so he pretends that he is talking with another agent. The agent is referred as Agent Vandelay, this could be a reference to the fake character used by George Costanza many times, in the series "Seinfield," sometimes for the same reason.

        Doctor-Who Ajzen-Fishbein's theory of Reasoned Action 2 Jul 16 2009, 8:23 PM EDT by Doctor-Who

        I just re-watched this episode last night, and there's a scene in Abby's lab, with McGee and Abby together. McGee says he had an epiphany which helped him with the case. He asked Abby if she know about the Ajzen-Fishbein theory of Reasoned Action. Abby did, but I didn't. So, I looked it up. Here's a link to a description of Ajzen-Fishbein theory of Reasoned Action:
