Episode 14 begins with the team mourning the loss of Director Leon Vance. However, the NCIS team soon had to resume investigation when a sailor was found dead in a squad car. Kyle was stabbed in the chest and left to die in the trunk of the stolen squad car. He was seen hanging out with his best friend, Daniel, and a young woman named Annie Carson before he died. Annie told NCIS that she left when Daniel and Kyle began speaking about nukes. Turns out, Kyle had signed up for a Nuclear program, and he was transferred to South Carolina for training. The team later found out that Annie was developing something that could help the authorities keep track of the sailors.

The Navy Fleet Week celebrations became chaotic when the NCIS team found out that the sailors were poisoned through their tattoos. Turns out it contained a nanotech that helped to trace their location, too. Unfortunately, the tattoo mobile van owner was found dead as well in the same fashion as Kyle. He was stabbed in the chest. In the end, it was found out that Annie's friend, Samantha, wanted to sell the toxic ink on the black market. She killed the tattoo owner first, and when she was unable to find the ink, she killed Kyle, too, who was leaving the tattoo shop, guessing he had the ink.
