On tonight's NCIS: ORIGINS episode, Gibbs killed someone in cold blood. Yeah, his walk down memory lane got really dark tonight. He fell apart after his family was murdered and the only way he could heal was killing the man that took his family away from him. Gibbs hunted down this killer. He killed him in Mexico.
There was no evidence of his involvement in the crime only the odds were pretty low that Pedro Hernandez managed to tick off two snipers. Lala knew instantly when she heard that a sniper killed Hernandez that Gibbs did it. She knew it. She also didn't want to be around Gibbs or Franks anymore. She doesn't trust them when they're together and she didn't want to be dragged down with them.
Lala was going to put in for a transfer. She told Gibbs about it. He tried to talk her out of it. The two of them have become friends and he said he couldn't tell her about what he did.
He didn't want to put that burden on her, but Lala felt like she couldn't trust him after learning the truth. She thought the best thing she could do was put some distance between them. She was going to do just that when they all came back from their time off. It was the Christmas holiday season after all. Gibbs didn't have anywhere else to go. He signed up for night duty at the office.
Gibbs needed to keep busy. Just six months ago, he was tearing up his apartment to the point that his landlord kicked him out. He was calling his father when he was sure his father wouldn't answer.
Gibbs was just being self-destructive. Gibbs was even sleeping in his truck bed when it started to rain. His former landlord saw him and she felt so bad for him that she agreed he could move back into the apartment. He was never going to get his deposit back. She was going to use that to fix up the holes he punched in the walls.
Somehow Gibbs ended up befriending his landlord. Her name is Ruth. They did puzzles together. It kept Gibbs from wallowing until his new friend fed him some tough love.
She knew she was helping him hide from the world and so she cut the strings. She forced him to go back outside. She made him get a job. He worked as a cashier at the supermarket. He would come home cranky only it didn't stop him from putting puzzles together with Ruth. Gibbs also tried to reach out to Franks. Franks was avoiding him for a while.
