NCIS plot hole: Gibbs and Fornell's gun tampering blunder exposed in key scene

However, before they could start working the case, an unfortunate editing error made it appear Gibbs made his desk wide open to subterfuge.

One eagle-eyed fan flagged the mistake online when they noticed something strange happening with Gibbs’ trusty pistol.

They posted: “Gibbs puts his gun in his drawer on a blue folder then goes to talk to Fornell in the lift. 

“When he comes back, he picks his gun up and the contents of the drawer and position of the gun have completely changed.”
