S22·E13 Bad Blood

Episode recap

The television series NCIS follows a Major Case Response Team of the Naval Criminal Investigative Service as they investigate criminal cases connected to United States Navy and Marine Corps personnel and their families. Created by Donald P. Bellisario and Don McGill, the mothership crime, drama, and action adventure series originally began as two back door pilot episodes of the existing show JAG that aired in April 2003. Throughout its long-running broadcast history, the series has featured cast members such as Mark Harmon, Michael Weatherly, Sasha Alexander, Sean Murray, David McCallum, Brian Dietzen, and Rocky Carroll.

In the television episode titled Bad Blood, which is part of season twenty-two, the NCIS team investigates a specific case involving a Navy Lieutenant who is found dead at a blood donation bank. As is standard for the series, the Major Case Response Team handles this criminal investigation connected to Navy personnel. The long-running procedural focuses on the detailed investigative work carried out by the special agents as they handle various threats ranging from murder and espionage to terrorism and stolen submarines, though this particular inquiry centers strictly upon the homicide of the Navy Lieutenant discovered at the blood donation facility.
