Gibbs stared at the years' old case file. His first case: the murder of a young Petty Officer. The one he'd never been able to solve.

Franks hadn't been surprised when Gibbs turned up nothing. He'd worked the case and found nothing.

"Are you ready to go home, my dear?"

Gibbs looked up. Ducky stood by his desk. He was about to tell Ducky to go home without him when he remembered something his first Captain had said: 'You have to learn when to let go'.

He closed the file and wrote 'Case Closed' across it.

"Yeah, Duck. I'm ready."
