Quiz Answer Key and Fun Facts

1. What was Gibbs doing when he got the phone call about Commander Dornan's death?

Answer: working on his boat

The call came in really early in the morning. At a time when most people would be asleep, Gibbs was working on his boat. Shocker!

2. What does McGee initially think caused the explosion that killed Commander Dornan?

Answer: spontaneous human combustion

McGee and Abby are the only two team members that have any sort of belief in spontaneous human combustion. Apparently, Abby wrote her Master's thesis on the topic.

3. What is different about Ducky when he initially meets Dr. Byers?

Answer: he was temporarily speechless

Ducky loves to talk and tell stories. He seems to have one for every occasion. When he first meets Dr. Byers, however, he is temporarily at a lose for words.

4. What procedure did Dr. Byers perform on Commander Dornan?

Answer: aortic valve repair

Commander Dornan was complaining of chest pains while on assignment. He was sent to Bethesda Navy Hospital where Dr. Byers performed an aortic repair to treat acquired aortic stenosis.

5. What problem did Abby find with the medical equipment in Commander Dornan's hospital room?

Answer: none, all machines were working properly

Abby, along with the hospital engineers, checked out all of the equipment and found it all to be working properly. This finding supported the notion of foul play, not a freak accident.

6. After showing the team a computer reenactment of the explosion, how does Abby refer to the victim when telling Gibbs that he was murdered?

Answer: barbecue boy

Abby refers to Commander Dornan as barbecue boy. By the looks of his remains, this was an accurate description, his chest area was totally charred.

7. Other than the main characters, which other NCIS agent makes an appearance in this episode?

Answer: Paula Cassidy

Special Agent Paula Cassidy makes another appearance in this episode. All three of the other characters appear later in the series.

8. What did the Chief say was the reason that Commander Dornan was so tough on Ensign Hayes?

Answer: Hayes' father, Captain Hayes, was Dornan's overbearing CO when he was a junior officer

The Chief tells Kate that Captain Hayes was really tough on Dornan when he was a young officer. When Dornan ended up in charge of the Captain's son, he capitalized on his chance for pay back.

9. How does Ensign Hayes die?

Answer: suicide by cop

Hayes did not have to nerve to take this own life. Instead, he positioned his weapon to make it look like he was going to shot Gibbs. Even though he had no intention of doing so, Kate had to take the kill shot to protect her partner, Gibbs.

10. Who dunn it? (That is, who committed the murder?)

Answer: Dr. Byers

This one should be easy. Dr. Byers botched the surgery that lead to the Commander's death. The explosion was only a cover up to prevent another malpractice suit.
