Description:

This isn’t just a take on what could have happened in that episode, this is every take. I’m hoping to collect a full set! While I have tried to make each story unique, there is obviously some overlap of theme. As such, if you want to wait and only read the one(s) that most appeal, please read the series notes for summaries of the unposted stories in planning.

Any more ideas about what could have happened will be gratefully welcomed, and if any of these ideas inspire you to a story of your own, please provide a link!

Notes:

Bombs of Opportunity
The military at home bomber is somewhat more competent. Tony realises he has been recognised, and tries to warn Ziva and Tim of their danger. To his horror, they’re already failing to respond.

Banking the Ashes
Tony knows they were joking about not listening, but the joke itself tips hisconfidence over the breaking point. He explores options other than NCIS.

A Sexual Harassment Suit Waiting To Happen
In an attempt to prejudice her husband’s trial, one of the terrorists’ wives claims Tony sexually assaulted her. No one believes Ziva and McGee when they claim not to have overheard anything.

Where, where wolf?
Tony couldn't even get Gibbs to believe he was attacked by a wolf – after all, Tim and Ziva had heard nothing of the sort. When Tony starts to suspect it might have been more than a wolf, he has no one to turn to for help.
