Two-Faced (episode)

Two-Faced is the twentieth episode in NCIS Season 8 and the 182nd episode of the entire NCIS series.
==Synopsis==
The team investigate the murder of a Seaman and soon discover that the death may be connected to other international port-related killings that fellow NCIS Special Agent EJ Barrett and her team are currently investigating.
==Prologue==
In a night club, various people are coming and going.
At the main bar, a woman named Melissa arrives but gets splattered by beer with Seaman Derek Balfour yelling "Victory" while his colleague, Seaman Joey Elson remarks that he's gotta stop.
"Great idea", Melissa snaps.
Balfour apologizes, wondering if they got her.
"Gee, you think", Melissa says.
Balfour attempts to clean up but makes it worse, touching Melissa who slaps him away while her friends shriek with horror.
Balfour apologizes before asking Melissa to touch him and that she'll make it even.
"Yeah, right", one of Melissa's friends says.
"No, thank you", Melissa replies calmly.
Balfour remarks that that didn't come out right.
Melissa then turns around and storms off, disgusted while remarking to her friends "What a jerk".
Unsurprisingly, this gets Balfour ejected from the premises with the Bartender telling him to sober up.
Outside the "Kegs" nightclub, Elson asks Balfour if he's okay before Elson suggests dropping Balfour off at the Base.
Balfour disagrees, stating that he's going to walk and shake the stink off.
With that, Balfour and Elson go their separate ways.
A while later, Balfour is walking into a small alleyway when he hears a doll say "Play with me" and "Please, play with me". This catches Balfour's attention.
It then shows a doll sitting in the center of the alleyway, muttering "Play with me" and "Please, play with me" over and over again.
Balfour pauses before approaching the doll.
He then kneels down to examine it further and attempts to touch it.
However, a masked man soon arrives, startling Balfour before the individual slashes Balfour's throat.
