It has been 3 yeas since Ziva David stayed behind in Israel during her time Away Gibbs has replaced Ziva in the team with Eleanor bishop but was never be able to replace Ziva as Ziva is irraplaceable as a person friend and daughter Tony was the most effected by Ziva's absance because of what happened in Israel when she said she couldn't come back to Washington with him When Ziva comes back she has a two year old daughter called Kate after Special Agent Caitlin 'Kate' Todd who was killed by Ari years before The team are shocked when Ziva returns but can they all just pick up where they left off........
