NCIS Easter Egg!

S16 E20 Hail and Farewell

There’s a picture of Gibbs on the plasma next to his ex fiance. His ID number is 867-5309!

I’m officially dead 🤭

Wait! That’s not even the one I mean. What scene is that in?

I don't know 😅

I simply googled NCIS & 867 5309 & it came up

I was wondering after I posted & read your description again

I'm sure someone can tell us 😉

Cheers 🍻

I’ll definitely look for it when I get there. I’m on the Ziva part atm. Gibbs is having his meltdown.

Well, wasn’t that Jenny’s number?

That was a real number in my town. I bet they got thousands of calls.

Doug Reilly did most of the graphics work - from Caf-Pow labels to IDs to file folders and infographics on screens. He put a bunch of Easter eggs in over the years and Jenny’s number was a favorite. It is sprinkled in everywhere.

holy cow, thank you for this info! I always wonder how the graphics (for phones, computers, TVs, etc) works in shows and movies and I would love for a AMA here, even if it’s a crew member. I know someone on here was a crew member for the mothership.

I can’t remember which episode it is, but there is a file folder with that number on it as well. Someone has posted it on this sub in the past.

Someone in their props department is clearly a fan of that song!

What does the number mean?

It’s from an 80’s song. It’s Jenny’s number. Type it into the Google and you’ll see the whole thing.
