NCIS Season 7 Episode 24: Rule Fifty-One



While in Mexico, Gibbs meets Paloma Reynosa, the daughter of Pedro Hernandez. Paloma wants revenge for Gibbs’ murder of her father twenty years previously and threatens to kill everyone he has ever met. It is revealed that Alejandro is Paloma’s brother and that he opened the case of his father’s murder in an attempt to keep Gibbs out of his sister’s reach whilst still delivering justice, but things are complicated by the loss of Abby’s report from “Patriot Down” – which has been intercepted by Allison Hart to prevent it from reaching Mexico. Meanwhile, Ziva has passed her citizenship and is expecting Tony and McGee to attend her citizenship ceremony. Tony is forced to break his promise to her when the situation escalates, and he is tasked with accompanying Mike Franks in shadowing Rivera when Paloma crosses the border. The episode ends with Paloma travelling to Pennsylvania and the home of Jackson Gibbs. The epynomous fifty-first rule is revealed to be “Sometimes you’re wrong”.
