NCIS

Series 12 - Episode 22 Troll

Review

by Gill Crawford

A convoluted case for the team (it’s the first episode in a three-part story leading up to the season finale), which also reveals cracks appearing in newbie Bishop’s marriage to NSA staffer Jake Malloy (our very own Jamie Bamber). The couple’s relationship is put under strain when the NSA blocks NCIS’s efforts to retrieve vital information from a computer hard drive as they investigate the murder of a tech-whizz marine. Even the director is getting the brush-off. But then Jake releases the information: surely that was all a bit too easy?

The case (NCIS likes to be topical) involves online terrorist grooming, and leads the team to the home of a troubled young chatroom user. But what’s he doing with a 3D printer? And can Gibbs reach out to him before he does anything stupid?

Summary

A Naval intelligence ensign is killed in an unusual car accident. Gibbs and his team are reunited with old friend Ned Dorneget, who is now working with NCIS cyber operations, and NSA attorney Jake Malloy to investigate the case, and discover a conspiracy involving terrorist recruitment on the internet.
