"Enigma" -- Gibbs risks his life and reputation to help his former commanding officer who is running for his life from the government, on a rebroadcast of NCIS, on a special night and time, Saturday, March 5 (9:00-10:00 PM, ET/PT) on the CBS Television Network. Tom Wright directed the episode from a script John C. Kelley. (Originally broadcast 2/24/04)

Gibbs is called to search for his old commanding officer, Marine Colonel Will Ryan (guest star Terry O'Quinn), who defected from Iraq with $2 million dollars. But Gibbs is convinced there's more to the story and with the help of his NCIS team, he sets out to exonerate his former comrade.
