“Unearth” follows the team as they investigate the body of a former soldier named Erik Nilsson (Laith Wallschleger) who had his internal organs replaced with stones. They slowly discover through Jimmy’s autopsy and markings on the stones that it has to do with a treasure from Afghanistan that is said to be cursed. At the same time, Torres has been having therapy sessions with Dr. Grace Confalone (Laura San Giacomo) about his pain in essentially losing his father and now Gibbs (Mark Harmon). This pain ultimately led to alcoholism, which Torres is getting over with Dr. Grace’s help.
Ultimately, the team’s case on the treasure leads to a connection with Dr. Grace, and she and Torres are held captive by the culprits, Ezra Moretti (Billy Miller) and Nate Holt (Jonathan Kowalsky). In the end, Dr. Grace fools Ezra, giving the team enough time to find both her and Torres. However, Torres heads back to Dr. Grace’s office to reveal that he’s going to tell the rest of the team that he quit drinking, per her advice to open up to those closest to him more often.
This is a big deal for Torres as opening up terrifies him. He fears that he may be rejected for it, which he alludes to Dr. Grace. It will be interesting to see how the team reacts to the news in future episodes, but knowing “NCIS,” they support their family.
“NCIS” Season 20, Episode 4 titled “Leave No Trace” premieres Monday, October 10 at 9/8c on CBS.
