"NCIS" The Immortals (TV Episode 2003) - Full cast & crew - IMDb
: This episode features an early guest appearance by Chad W. Murray as the victim, Russell MacDonald.
This episode is a great example of the early "procedural" DNA of the show. It captures that early 2000s anxiety about the "dark side" of the internet and gaming culture. While some of the tech talk might feel dated now—like failing to check server terminals immediately—the character interactions are pure gold.
: The victim, Petty Officer Ronald Zuger, was heavily involved in a "Wizards and Warriors" style role-playing game called The Immortals .
