1 1 "Yankee White" Donald P. Bellisario Teleplay by: Donald P. Bellisario
Story by: Donald P. Bellisario & Don McGill
September 23, 2003 101 13.04
While on Air Force One, a Navy commander, Ray Trapp (Gerald Downey) who was tasked with carrying the "football" dies under mysterious circumstances, forcing an emergency landing in Wichita, Kansas but while his death is originally thought to be a tragic accident, NCIS eventually uncovers evidence suggesting the commander was in fact murdered and that it might be connected to a possible assassination attempt on the President.
2 2 "Hung out to Dry" Alan J. Levi Don McGill September 30, 2003 102 12.08
A Marine (Brian Patrick Wade) dies during a night-time training jump. The culprit seems to be a faulty parachute, but the standard investigation reveals that the death might not have been an accident after all. Gibbs begins to believe that the supposed accident which resulted in the Marine's death might actually be murder after all and he and Tony, along with new recruit Kate Todd, set out to find out who tampered with the dead Marine's faulty parachute and eventually sent him to his death.

Note: This is the first crossover with JAG in this series, with the appearance of Lt. Bud Roberts Jr. (Patrick Labyorteaux).

3 3 "Seadog" Bradford May John C. Kelley & Donald P. Bellisario October 7, 2003 103 11.26
When a driver-less boat and several bodies, including that of a Navy commander wash up on the beach, seemingly during a freelance drugs deal gone sour, the media is quick to link him to drug trafficking and the evidence stacks up. Being a former Marine himself, Gibbs refuses to believe that a good officer could be so corrupt, and in his efforts to clear the commander's record and good name, uncovers a turf war between two rival drug gangs, and a terrorist's scheme to knock out the national power grid. The NCIS team is aided in its investigation by a DEA Agent (played by William R. Moses), and FBI Special Agent Tobias Fornell.
4 4 "The Immortals" Alan J. Levi Darcy Meyers October 14, 2003 104 11.70
The discovery of a drowned sailor in dress whites, with an officer's ceremonial sword and weights chained to his waist, sparks a suicide investigation and eventually sends the team to the USS Foster so that they can dig into the deceased officer's life and find out what his colleagues thought of him. Kate refuses to believe that the deceased sailor committed suicide as, like her, he came from a Catholic family where suicide is considered a mortal sin. Meanwhile Abby discovers a link between the crew of the USS Foster and an MMORPG known as The Immortals, and begins searching the game for clues and evidence in order to assist Gibbs and the team in solving the case and saving the ship from possible destruction.
5 5 "The Curse" Terrence O'Hara Teleplay by: Don McGill, Jeff Vlaming & Donald P. Bellisario
Story by: Donald P. Bellisario
October 28, 2003 105 13.50
Gibbs and the team are called in when a mummified lieutenant, who was believed to have absconded with 1.2 million dollars of stolen Navy funds nine years previously and later received a dishonorable discharge for allegedly deserting his position, is found in a half-buried cargo pod with Navy markings on it by a deer hunter deep in the woods of St. Mary's River State Park. Two former shipmates who serve with the deceased come under suspicion for both the murder and the theft. Gibbs and Tony work at investigating the murder, while Kate is charged with tracking down the missing funds although she is more devoted to ensuring the dead lieutenant's former wife and young daughter receive his death benefits.
