STORY LINE: A war zone may provide good coverage for murder, but the NCIS team is quick to realize that CAPTAIN JOHN RANKIN was not simply the random victim of a mortar attack. Soon Tony and Nikki are making their way to Baghdad to find out what really happened, and why...
[MARINE MAJOR IKE VARNAI] Early 40s, physically fit, authoritative and tough, he has been stationed in Iraq for some time and he appears weary from his long tour. Varnai becomes Tony and Nikki's "handler" during their brief stay in Baghdad while investigating the murder of an Marine Captain. Brusque in manner, with little time for idle chatter, Major Varnai is a practical, coldly aloof man who is clearly more than a little anxious to get back Stateside and be with his family. Not eager to help with the investigation, he considers the whole of Iraq a crime scene. Under a great deal of stress and world-weary with a decided cynicism, he becomes a suspect... SPTV050769.

[GEORGE STENNER] Mid to late 30s, a bookish, nervous, ordinary kind of guy who you wouldn't think twice about, he is the owner of a small soil testing company, clearly uneasy when he is questioned by Gibbs (Mark Harmon) about his association with Marine Captain Rankin. Physically ill with nerves, he seems, nonetheless, honest and cooperative... GUEST STAR
[DINA RANKIN] Late 20s to early 30s, beautiful, intelligent and educated, she is the widow of the late Marine Captain John Rankin, murdered in Iraq.

She explains to Gibbs that her husband was man who trusted his instincts. When he failed to mail
back a contract sent to him by Braithwaite, she sensed something was terribly wrong... GUEST STAR
[MARINE SERGEANT JIM GILROY] Late 20s, physically fit and tough. Currently assigned to Iraq, he is first seen playing basketball with Marine Captain Rankin at the time he is killed, apparently from a mortar attack. He is confused to learn that Rankin was singled out, and tells Tony that Rankin was very well liked, and a good man... GUEST STAR, MARINE HAIRCUT REQUIRED, ANY ETHNICITY
[ALLAN HAYES] Late 20s, a U.S. citizen, he is a scruff, civilian construction worker for AQB in Baghdad.

It seems one of the those "bribes" may have been a hit fee, a payment to take out a certain uncooperative party... GUEST STAR, ANY ETHNICITY
[JAMAIL] Legal 18 to play 15, Iraqi, intelligent and kind, this boy is Nikki's contact while in Iraq. A sweet kid, he is delighted to see Nikki, happy to help with her investigation.
