ummary

Tony and Ziva are assigned protection to the director of NCIS as she attends a funeral of a retired NCIS Agent. The autopsy says heart attack, but at the funeral, Jenny discovers that it was actually a murder. Not knowing where to turn for help, she asks Mike Franks to come up from Mexico. While up in D.C Franks is hesitant to help, until he finds out that Gibbs is the next target. Jenny dismisses her protection to work with Franks, giving Tony and Ziva a chance to have a night in Hollywood, but the fun is cut short when they find the director's car abandoned near a murder scene. With the Director acting suspicious, Tony and Ziva ask for McGee and Abby to work with them to track down Jenny before Gibbs finds out she's missing.
At one point in the episode Jenny reveals that she still loves Gibbs and has since Paris stating 'he didn't fit into my five point plan'. [CBS NCIS Website " [http://www.cbs.com/primetime/ncis/recaps/518/ NCIS Rec

Ending

In the two-part season five finale, the NCIS team loses one of its own: Director (Jenny) Shepard is killed in a shootout.

Following the funeral, the Assistant Director of NCIS invites the team to his office. He ostensibly reassigns Tony, Ziva and Tim. The episode ends with the new Director giving Gibbs three "Confidential" folders and telling him "Meet your new team...".
