  • Alternate Character Interpretation: Gibbs's Wham Line at the end of the episode, "What was a toe doing in her husband's stomach?" Was Charles Bright a completely innocent husband whose wife killed him when he discovered her crimes, and force-fed him one of her victim's toes to frame him for her guilt? Or were they both serial killers who got off on torturing and killing young women, until she decided to take it one step further and kill him as well?
  • Complete Monster: Karen Bright is a seemingly innocent widow and a loving mother who hides a disturbed personality. A sadistic Serial Killer, Karen would target women who look like her and murder them by either repeatedly stabbing them or slicing their throats. When her victims are dead, Karen would remove the toes of her victims, taking sexual pleasure with her crimes. When her husband Charles discovers her crimes, Karen kills him and frames him for her murders while she tries to gets away with it before being caught. With 20 deaths to her name for no discernible reason, Karen stands out as one of the worst the NCIS team have faced.
  • Harsher in Hindsight: The last appearance of Michael Gilden, who took his own life a week after the episode aired.
  • Retroactive Recognition: Corey Stoll's first of three appearances on NCIS as La Grenouille minion Martin Quinn.
