Recap

The episode begins at Naval Air Station -- Base Housing. We see that a woman, a Commander, comes home for the holidays and finds her neighbor stringing lights. She enters a dark house with a pile of mail and a terrible smell and also a dead husband in an easy chair! Next morning the team arrives at the scene and Megan Huffner, the Commander, explains to Gibbs that she last spoke to her husband Pat, at Thanksgiving and she'd been deployed in the Gulf for six months. She tells them that Noel was an unemployed Navy husband. There's no sign of forced entry and he's been there three or four weeks and there are no visible wounds. ..
