To protect Gibbs, Vance gives a press conference implying Gibbs died in the boat explosion. McGee, Torres, and Knight apprehend a man believed to be tied to the killer, but soon discover he is undercover FBI agent Alden Parker (Gary Cole) who was also investigating LeMere. Meanwhile, Torres is eager to give Bishop's desk to Knight, to her aggravation, culminating in an argument about personal space and Torres' lasting grief over Bishop's departure. The team locates LeMere, and after preventing Gibbs from shooting him, they find out he is not a serial killer but a contract killer.

The rest of the team confirms that the mine is the motive behind the killings, with several of the victims being opponents to the mine's construction and environmental impact. After compiling enough evidence to arrest Sonova's CEO, Gibbs has McGee arrest him to keep his agent from being caught in red tape, but Parker has a change of heart and lets Gibbs go, leading to Parker being fired from the FBI. Gibbs decides to stay in Naktok Bay, feeling a sense of peace he hadn't felt since the deaths of his wife and daughter, and bids an emotional farewell to McGee.
