Ep 13. The Root of All Evil

When a well-known drug kingpin is found dead in New Orleans, Pride and the NCIS team launch an investigation that leads them to a family-run Italian restaurant. It quickly becomes apparent that the restaurant is a front for the drug trade, and that the family members are involved in a power struggle for control over the business.

As the investigation continues, the team learns that the restaurant is just one small part of a larger criminal enterprise, with the kingpin's murder being only the latest in a string of violent incidents. The team must work quickly to piece together the clues and identify the mastermind behind the operation before more lives are lost.

Meanwhile, Tammy continues to struggle with the aftermath of her ex-husband's death and navigates her complex emotions as she confronts new developments in the case. Percy also finds herself in a difficult position when a family member is implicated in the investigation, forcing her to choose between her loyalty to the team and her personal ties to the suspect.

As tensions mount, the team must rely on their instincts and trust one another to uncover the truth and bring those responsible to justice.
