The eligibility of documentaries for awardage from both that lusted after winged woman (Emmy) and the coveted naked man (Oscar) is a labyrinthine maze from which we would never exit were we to foolishly enter. In fact, someone needs to make a documentary about That to sort it all out.

Kate (Sasha Alexander) couldn't believe it, especially since Melissa (Stacy Haiduk) was a redhead, but as Tony (Michael Weatherly) said, Gibbs wouldn't get involved with a murder suspect. None of the team would, but this has happened in several episodes. (See ep with Tony and the transsexual in 1.14 Dead Man Talking) Tony's desperate to find the location of Kate's tattoo.
