NCIS details the experiences and stories of a team of special agents who work for the Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS). The team, called the Major Case Response Team (MCRT) primarily responds to high-visibility crimes; NCIS is the main federal law enforcement agency of the United States Department of the Navy, investigating Navy- and Marine Corps (USMC)-related criminal activities (e.g. deaths, force protection, treason, etc.), as well as their associated branches of government.

"Deception"

A Navy lieutenant commander, who was in charge of a shipment of nuclear weapons, is thought to have been abducted leading to Gibbs and his team being called in on a Sunday to investigate. The team discovers that the lieutenant commander had had a meeting earlier in the day at a shopping center and that she did volunteer work at an organization dedicated to combating online pedophilia, meaning that her abductor might not have been a terrorist but a pedophile she was tracking.
