I wrote this because we never really see Tim struggling with cases. He's emotionally...not there, and I think that's because he needs to be so that he doesn't get hurt. He loves his job, he's passionate, but I wanted to dive down into the hurt that Tim might experience when he stumbles upon a case that he finds particularly frustrating, mainly because they couldn't solve it! (Which rarely happens on NCIS.) So, using his Thom E. Gemcity skills, he creates a different ending, one that will satisfy his need for revenge... for now.
