A stolen laptop leads the ‘NCIS’ team back to Phineas
During NCIS Season 18 Episode 14 (titled “Unseen Improvements”), the team traces a solen laptop back to the uncle of Phineas. The boy has history with Gibbs, who used to babysit him while his mother was away.
Phineas used to live next door to Gibbs, and they formed a bond that became like father and son. During an episode 14 sneak peak, Gibbs and Phineas are sharing a meal together. It looks like they will get a chance to catch up on old times.
Phineas on ‘NCIS’
Phineas was first introduced during NCIS Season 17 Episode 5 (titled “Wide Awake”). His mother, Sahar, moved next door to Gibbs so she could spy on him and get to Ziva (Cote de Pablo). She pretended to be a woman named Sarah so she could gain Gibbs’ trust. He would babysit Phineas now and then, and they grew close.
Unfortunately, Sarah turned out to be a killer. Gibbs had no choice but to kill her first so he could protect Ziva during what could have been a fatal end for Ziva. Watch NCIS Season 17 Episode 10 if you want more of the back story.
