Judy Ford (NCIS)

Judy Ford (Jessica Collins) is the main villainess from "Recovery," the second episode of NCIS' tenth season (airdate October 2, 2012). She is a Navy Facilities Manager who was in charge of reconstructing the building after the explosion.
As shown in the episode, Judy engaged in playful flirting with Tony DiNozzo, but in actuality, she was spoken for--as Judy told Tony when he asked her out. Judy was the girlfriend of Jon Phelps, who worked in the NCIS armory, though before he met Judy, Jon engaged in a brief fling with former NCIS Chief Armor and Facilities Manager Margaret "Midge" Watkins. While Judy was at the hospital visiting Jon, she was dismayed to hear Jon mention Midge and how much she meant to him. In a jealous rage, Judy took one of Jon's guns and held Midge at gunpoint in her car, and later shot her to death.
Jon was actually suspected of the murder due to him being an avid gun collector, as well as his address being the shipping address where the gun (an old one from 1903) was sent. Agent Leroy Gibbs went to Jon's home with Tony and Ziva David, where the gun was missing from the collection. Via a phone conversation, Jimmy Palmer revealed that a chemical found in colognes was found on Midge's body, which triggered an allergic reaction, and after hearing that, Tony realized it was perfume, as he smelled the scent in the home. The familiar scent revealed Judy as the villainess, as she wore that same perfume.
In the episode's climax, the evil Judy polished off the gun (while wearing gloves) and tossed it into the same pond where Midge's body was dumped, only to find Tony waiting for her. Judy attempted to deny everything, but while Tony handcuffed and arrested her, she revealed her true jealousy of Midge, venting over Jon talking about her fondly while at the ER. The flirtatious villainess even asked Tony if he was going to frisk her, before she was taken away.

* "Do you know what it's like to love someone who talks about someone else constantly? A woman that he slept with? I was the one, I was the one in the ER with Jon. I was... it was me, listening to him go on and on about how brave she was, how amazing she was." (Judy Ford revealing her jealousy of Midge, as well as her role in Midge's murder)
