NCIS: Origins - Flight of Icarus

NCIS takes on a case involving the apparent suicide of a general's son just days before the soldier's redeployment which have elements that hit home for Franks through a series of flashbacks. While I don't have an issue with exploring Franks' past, nor using a current case to provide the framework for those flashbacks, I'm not sure the script of "Flight of the Icarus" was necessarily the best episode to do so (when you think the actions of the dead solider would hit harder for our main character who attempted suicide himself not all that long ago). With so much time focused on Franks, Gibbs (Austin Stowell) and his new romantic relationship with Dominguez (Mariel Molino) gets mostly pushed to the side without an immediate follow up, although one of their colleagues appears to have sniffed out the change in their relationship.
