KILL SCREEN-NCIS,το 16ο ΕΠΕΙΣΟΔΙΟ ΤΟΥ 18ΟΥ ΚΥΚΛΟΥ

"Kill Screen"					21.32[17]
The discovery of some extracted teeth and dismembered  digits in a purse results in an NCIS investigation when they are identified as belonging to a Marine. As the team tries to  track down the killer, an investigator from an electronic  security firm (guest star Jason Beghe) arrives, having  traced the source of a number of computer hackings to  NCIS.  This makes McGee nervous as he had regularly illegally hacked into government computers under Gibbs' orders. The team manages to track down Maxine (guest star Beth Riesgraf), who is the dead Marine's girlfriend and  is an avid gamer and computer expert. She begins to take a liking to McGee. However, McGee tries to maintain his  distance due to the events in "Defiance". She reveals that  she had accidentally uncovered some sort of encrypted  code in an MMORPG which turns out to be a program  capable of hacking the Pentagon. The team tracks down  the programmer responsible and shuts down his program,  but he is found dead.  Gibbs and McGee deduce that the investigator that arrived earlier was behind the killings,  since news of such a threat to American security could  ruin his career. Later, DiNozzo manipulates events to get  McGee to start dating Maxine.
