McGee continued digging evidence against LaRoche in the NCIS Season 22 episode 19
NCIS Season 22 episode 19 began with Agent McGee having a nightmare in which Deputy Director LaRoche killed him. He had been sleeplessly pursuing his case, trying to find something to prove that he was a mole.
McGee shared his dream with Torres and Jess, but it did more harm than good, as it became just another topic of discussion for them. However, the team had begun to worry about his health, so Parker asked him to go home for rest instead of going to the crime scene.
They were called to investigate a shooting of a party supply truck named Buddy Birthday’s Barn. There were no fatalities, but a military grade weapon was found nearby, which meant NCIS's involvement.
On the other hand, McGee continued his pursuit of LaRoche when he saw him leaving the office without security, which was odd considering he had been a hitman's target recently.

Back in the office, Kasie found out that the weapon was specifically designed to shoot down drones. The shooters had stolen some unspecified object from the party truck, which they must find out to solve the case. On the other hand, McGee witnessed LaRoche shooting someone. However, when he tried to pursue him, he was hit by an oncoming vehicle.
The team reached there and found McGee injured. His version of the story was hard to believe, as he had been sleepless for days, and the body of LaRoche's victim was missing. Though Parker and the rest of the team believed him, Vance ordered him to stop investigating LaRoche. Parker advised McGee to get Jimmy to sketch the victim.
Kasie found a link between the shooting suspect and LaRoche's victim. The latter was among the many known associates of the former. His name was Jason Meeks, whose body was soon discovered.
LaRoche was caught by the MCRT team
LaRoche had filed a complaint against McGee for workplace harassment, citing abuse of power and unlawful investigation. The IG office sent an Inspector to investigate the case, who brought in McGee for questioning. The agent did not pull back his words and stated everything as it was. He accused LaRoche of being a mole and involved in illegal activities.
This team the entire team was behind McGee and trying to find something on LaRoche, or else McGee could lose his job and reputation. The agent made one more attempt to take down McGee and stashed himself in LaRoche’s van. He found the Deputy Director in the middle of a buy, which led to an intense standoff among the three.
However, LaRoche did something unexpected. He saved McGee's life, saying that he had something in his pocket that would explain everything. Till then, the rest of the team had gathered the evidence against LaRoche and had reached the scene. The episode ended on a cliffhanger, and for the big reveal, the viewers would have to tune in for the NCIS season 22 finale on Monday, May 5, at 9 p.m. ET.
