The NCIS team investigates when a petty officer who recently returned from duty is found dead backstage at a local bikini contest.

Gibbs and the team trace the Petty Officer's activities since returning from sea duty and they discover a possible stalker who had just been released from prison. But when his location is accounted for at the time of the murder and Ducky's autopsy reveals the Petty Officer was pregnant, the team discovers that jealousy may be the motive for her death.
