"The Plot Bunny Farm" : Tony-centric ideal plot .
Oct 7 2010, 6:46 AM EDT | Post edited: Oct 7 2010, 6:46 AM EDT
I've already post this idea on NCIS Wiki Site , but I think that here we could be more free to express our ideas , since this is just Michael Weatherly Site :)

le_bibliothecaire and I have a new project for you . The title is "The Plot Bunny Farm" (le_bibiothecaire's idea!) and it's our chance to post our ideal plots for Tony-centric positive episode . We can share our ideas and whishes , build up a plot all together or post links for good FF (remember this is a P13 Site !)

Remember that , if you want to write down (or continue) a real FF based on other people's ideas , you've to ask their permission or it would be a sort of "theft of ideas" , and this is not nice , at all !!!

I know that this is risky , but I want to trust you and your common sense . I also know that , if we want to highlight a character , we've to hide and/or diminish some other characters . It happens in the Show too , but try to be nice with all of them , at least at the end of your story .

This is not "Highlight Tony and bash the others !" Project .

So , free your fantasy , but remember my words : do NOT be mean or rude to anybody (characters , cast and Site's members) , or your post will be deleted . Thanks :)

Thanks , Sorgina ! Let's hope !
I keep on hearing "I want this or that for Tony" or "My ideal plot is ..." . Well , this is the right place to write down 'our own' episodes :)

So do we post ideas here? Here's mine. Gibbs is dating Colonel Mann, and she doesn't like Tony. Tony has figured out a lead in the case and is trying to get in touch w/ Gibbs. Mann won't let him talk to Gibbs. Gibbs is where he doesn't hear a phone. Tony gets caught by serial killer they are after. Gibbs doesn't find out til next day when Tony doesn't get too work. They pull Tony's phone records and find out he tried to call Gibbs. Gibbs figures out what Mann did and is furious. To make it worse, the killer is putting a live feed of Tony torture on the internet. What do you think? This is too late for an ep. but perhaps a fanfic! Do you find this valuable?

It's a good FF .
You could change some things and then it would a good new episode : Vance sends Gibbs on undecover mission , without telling his team . When Tony is captured by the serial killer that their investigating , the Director doesn't want to call Gibbs ... I left the end in your hands ! LOL

That's good, rosie, I wish I could actually write the ideas in my head! I can go from beginning to end....just can't do the middle. I have a lot of admiration for fan fic writers who do so good on crime writing. Do you find this valuable?

Gibbs goes missing from his house. Tony arrives with steaks and a 6 pack only to find the front door open. He calls out but gets no reply. He's unarmed, so quietly enters the house. The house has been ransacked. Gibbs gun is missing but his ID is found sticking out from under the couch. McGee is on an overseas trip and Tony can't contact him yet. Ziva is with Vance in L.A. It'll be tomorrow before they can get back. Tony picks up Gibbs gun with a tea towel he finds in the cupboard...he calls Abby..there is just the two of them to start the investigation rolling...and then there is Franks...but wait..Franks phone is found on the floor under the table...now there are two missing...where does Tony start.

WOW ! Bells , this is very good ! Why don't you write it down on NCIS Wiki Site or on FF.net ?!
Obviuusly Tony saves the day and all his coworkers respect mìhim and his orderds , right ? O
Or , looking for Gibbs , Tony goes missing too . The bad guy/guys put all of them together , and doing this , they make the biggest mistake of his/their life/lives . Tony , Gibbs and Franks , even injured , are a great team , if they work together as a real team .

Yes, that was my idea. For Tony to find Gibbs by himself and with some help from Abby and maybe Ducky. Gibbsand or Franks are injured and Tony saves them by being the invisible man, lol...and using Ducky as a decoy...get it..duck decoy..lol...any way, and with Abbys help and even Palmers they all arrive back by ambulance, even after getting lost, at ncis in one piece...lol.. Tim arrives there as does Ziva and Vance and ask if anything happened?..lol..

Forgot to say that Ziva, Tim and Vance all look amazed at Tony's heroics. LOL,

I love how Tony met Gibbs stories. I think those are my favorite. I was excited when I thought they would do one on the series, but afraid too. Afraid it wouldn't be what I expect if that makes sense. I think they wouldn't get along at first, but Gibbs would gradually develop a grudging respect for Tony. Maybe Gibbs could be investigating Malacuso and not know Tony was undercover and not realize it when he questioned him. Then he would be amazed that Tony managed to fool even him.

::waves:: Hello!

Okay, my idea is a bit ghoulish and is a little detailed ('cause that's how I roll, lol).

I call it "MURDER BREEDS MURDER".

McGee comes in, very worried, after a long weekend. Sarah McGee is missing. Missing Person Report has been filed but Tim is really frightened. She was due to meet him to buy a present for their parents’ anniversary on sunday afternoon and when she didn’t show, he called her roommate, who said she hadn’t come home friday night or all day saturday. Another 24 hours pass with Tim getting more and more upset and worried.

Vance takes MCRT off rotation - they have no active cases and clearly their minds are not on the job.

Gibbs orders Tim to go to lunch with him. He has been running searches incessantly and is working himself into a state of collapse. While they are out, Tony gets a call from Baltimore and takes off without a word to Ziva, Abby or Gibbs. He does however give Vance a heads-up.

A body found in Baltimore matches a few details from an unofficial personal BOLO Tony emailed out to his contacts.
Horrific find and not something they want to inflict on McGee unless they’re 100% positive. Snuff film found in a handycam found during a vice raid led them to a body. They can’t use normal identification because of the GSW to the face. Hands also were cut off.

Tony insists on seeing the film and after puking his guts up confirms that it is Sarah McGee in the film. He asks them to take a blood sample and send it to Donald Mallard at NCIS as eyes-only confidential; NCIS will get the DNA testing done more quickly than the BPD can. Tony will make sure no information reaches Tim until they have scientific confirmation that it is Tim’s sister.
Also tells his former co-workers that he recognizes the style of the film. He had a case in Philly, he and his late partner, involving some real sadistic perverts.

Tony requests that they read him into their investigation before he goes any further. He doesn’t want to rip open his past or tickle sleeping dragons unless he has to. Once Tony hears the details, he reads them into his case from Philly. Truly twisted men were taking young, inexperienced hookers of both genders and making snuff films. The young men were tortured and left to die, the young women murdered once the bastards were done with them. They never caught them; in fact, they murdered his partner Sofia and nearly got him too. It's why he left Philly - he had to leave or he'd have died. Sarah McGee was no hooker. Tony makes that very clear. He has no idea how they got her or why her but he'll help them get the bastards whether they want his help or not.

Tony goes back to DC; he nods at Vance and Vance gets Tim away from the others, sending him up to his office. Tony goes to the office and Vance blocks Gibbs et al, directs them to the conference room. Tony tells Tim. Then he tells Tim just how bad it is and that whether Tim believes him or not, he was doing the right thing by doing this for him. Tony promises Tim that he will get them this time. No excuses, Tony will make them pay for what they did.

Vance breaks the news to the others, who are angry over Tony’s misdirection. Ducky goes to Tim and Tony refuses to allow Gibbs to berate him for taking responsibility for telling Tim. “He’s going to hate the person who tells him, Gibbs. He can’t hate you. He’s going to need you for this. Me? I can cope with being the bad guy until we get them.”

Vance also stuns the others - Tony has been placed on detached duty. He will be personally running the task force to get the bastards.

Tony heads back to Baltimore; Gibbs follows him, demanding to be read in. As they are leaving the precinct to go to get food while Tony reads him in, Tony is shot by a drive-by shooter. Tony surprised them all - he was wearing a vest. The situation was hinky and it was making him nervous that this of all cases had come back to haunt him. Clearly, they know he’s around.

In light of this and much to Tony's fury, the FBI seizes the case and exiles Tony, forcing him back to DC. The FBI and Baltimore PD will share jurisdiction - Tony is not to involve himself in this case except when asked for information related to the Philadephia case by those specifically assigned to Sarah McGee’s case.

Six months pass with no leads.

Without warning, Tony’s old partner from Baltimore calls him up out of the blue. He begs Tony to meet him at an old dive of a pub near the river docks in Baltimore. Says he has information for him on Sarah McGee’s murder. Tony is waiting inside - it’s raining heavily outside. A very drunk, tacky, older-than-her-years woman keeps hitting on Tony. Tony sees his old partner come in looking ragged and tragic, with a bundled coat in his arms. He is clearly relieved to see Tony and waves. Tony gets a horrible feeling and starts trying to make his way over to his friend. He sees his friend do something with the bundle before heading towards the door.

Tony finds himself wrestling free of the tacky woman but by the time he gets to the table, he’s out the door. Tony checks the bundle and discovers it’s a baby. His partner’s baby and the paperwork tucked into the baby’s shirt grants guardianship to Tony. Tony shoves the baby at the bartender with a “watch him for a second” and runs outside into the rain. It’s too late, the street lights show an empty wet street. Tony goes back in and signs the paperwork, gets the bartender to witness it.

Vance is furious that Tony disobeyed orders until Tony tells Vance why he went alone. Tony’s partner told him he thought he was being followed, that someone was deliberately impeding the investigation - one of their brothers. He left the boy with Tony for safety. Vance agrees to keep this from Gibbs and the others for the time being. They can’t do anything until Tony finds his old partner.

The team is shocked that Tony has willingly accepted a child - a not quite toddler - into his life. Tony was the closest thing the man had left to family - like Tony and Gibbs, everyone else is dead.

Several weeks pass until Tony receives a call at work from some old friends in Baltimore about a body. Tony leaves the baby with Abby and heads for Baltimore. The others ‘tag along’ as per Gibbs’ insistence. Abby tipped them off! It is Tony’s old partner and it wasn’t a kind death. Baltimore homicide interviews Tony - Gibbs insists on being present.

Tony has no idea what his old partner’s being doing. He tried to tell Tony, something went wrong and he went to ground. Vance orders Tony to leave the McGee case alone - the FBI and Baltimore have the case well in hand.

That weekend, Tony gets Abby to babysit and goes to Baltimore to speak to a witness on his own time and dime. He gets the information he needed and on his way back to his car, gets attacked. Tony is badly hurt but makes a second crucial connection. Tony gets a message off to his old captain, the now-retired Bill Friendly, in Baltimore just in time before the attack occurs.

Friendly and a few trusted friends from the force showed up and saved him, got him to hospital.

I'm stumped on where to take it from there. My end goal is Tony gets the bad guys, brings down the ring and personally delivers the head of the man who ordered the murder of Sarah McGee to the McGees: she was a target because of a disgruntled seaman McGee's father had reprimanded, not because of McGee.

Tony has "his" son, too. :-)

(I have a mild case of wanting a 'mini-me' for Tony).

I was inspired whilst re-reading some old Mike Hammer novels (points to those who figure out which one inspired me) and it just sort of jumped out at me that Tony as a cop would have dealt with these kinds of horrible things. Things Gibbs and the others would not have been exposed to as naval people.

Absolutely agree with rosecake and ncisnewgirl that's one hell of a great story there Snoopmary, that ought to be written. Going to set up a Fanfiction section on the site here so you can start producing girls.

Those Mike Hammer novels were really entertaining. I think there was a TV series on it with Stacey Keach as Mike Hammer if I remember rightly.
