Yeah, I’m being hypersensitive. I hate being spoiled myself. Stop here if you’ve just begun watching the series.

Alrighty, that should be enough. In the CBS series NCIS, the main character, Leroy Gibbs, is a federal agent and ex-Marine who’s been married four times. All but one of the marriages ended in divorce; his first wife was murdered while he was serving in Iraq during the first Gulf War, along with their young daughter. The man responsible absconds to Mexico, whose government refused to extradite him. Upon learning this, Gibbs, a Marine sniper, hunted down and executed the murderer.
The above is revealed in a flashback. To my knowledge, Gibbs has never actually admitted what he did–though his best friend, Ducky, immediately put it together when he learned how Gibbs’ first wife and only child died, simply because Gibbs’s character and skillset made any other conclusion impossible. But I’m wondering: do any of the other characters actually KNOW that Gibbs is a murder?
