Witch Hunt is a fourth season episode of NCIS.
[edit] Plot
It is Halloween and the team is working at NCIS when a call comes in that a Marine has been shot and his daughter been kidnapped. The team sets out to investigate, spoiling McGee's Halloween date with an attractive cheerleader. They arrive at the house to find a dead man dressed as a skeleton - the Marine was able to make it to his neighbor's house and has been taken to hospital. During investigation the Marine's wife returns and is shocked to find out her daughter has been kidnapped.
At NCIS Ducky examines the body and Abby, dressed as Marilyn Monroe to the guys' delight, is working on identifying the dead John Doe. With the help of a partial license plate, left by the fleeing car in a crashed pumpkin, they manage to identify the car used for the kidnapping, a "Kuruma" as a witness described it (which is a car name used in Grand Theft Auto III). Unfortunately the car was reported stolen 3 days earlier. The kidnappers call in the mean time and demand $100,000 from the shocked mother.
DiNozzo and McGee manage to identify the ex-boyfriend of the wife, a suspect for he tried to have a paternal test for the daughter, claiming he was the real father. They set out with Gibbs to question him, finding the stolen car parked before his apartment. But the suspect was at a party all the day (and thus at the time of the kidnapping) which makes NCIS think that he was to be framed. Abby meanwhile identifies the John Doe as an ex-Airforce-member who works at the same law firm as the Marine's wife as a security guard, which leads NCIS to question the motives for the kidnapping. They race to the law firm to find out that the kidnapper's only goal was to have $3,000,000 transferred from the law firm's accounts. This plan is spoiled when the team arrives in time to take out the kidnapper and to rescue the little girl.
