The NCIS: Los Angeles season 4 episode 7 titled "Skin Deep" starts with the team trying to uncover the truth behind a deadly car explosion in Los Angeles. The bomb was placed in the car of a Navy contractor who was scheduled to work on a project involving missile detection technology. The team soon discovers that the contractor had many enemies which could make the investigation complex.
This case takes a different turn from the usual ones since the contractor's wife was in the car during the explosion and is severely injured. As the NCIS team starts to investigate, they find that the victim’s wife is in a coma. They plan to take the case as a priority and solve the case before the next attack happens.
The victim's wife is the closest person who can provide valuable details, but she is in the hospital undergoing life-saving surgery. Granger instructs the team to talk to the contractor's business partner who had details on the victim's life. The partner reveals that the victim had many enemies, including his lover and an arms dealer.
Further investigation of the victim's phone records leads the team to a massage spa that the victim was a regular client of. They learn that the victim's mistress had introduced him to a new masseuse who had an odd attitude and was given to violence. The team suspects the new masseuse is behind the bombing.
The new masseuse, who goes by the name "Lotus," is elusive. Hetty assigns Kensi and Deeks to go undercover as a married couple who wish to hire the services of the nuru massage therapist. They infiltrate the spa and gather the information they need about Lotus. But soon, the situation gets dangerous when Kensi becomes a target of the new masseuse’s violence.
The team rushes Kensi to the hospital, where she receives medical attention. Meanwhile, using the information gathered from the spa, the NCIS team tracks down the owner of the massage parlor, who had no idea about the new masseuse. Just as they think the case is closed, they learn that Lotus has already secured a new victim for her nefarious plan.
