(00:16:10)

Visible crew/equipment: When it's discovered the M60s don't have firing pins Gibbs is pushed toward the green doors, and in the first closeup facing Gibbs the blue crash mat is visible at the bottom of the screen. (00:39:50)
Answer: I hadn't seen the backdoor pilots yet but while it wasn't explicitly stated, at least onscreen, I heard somewhere Vivian got either fired from NCIS due to jeopardizing a case, got resigned from the agency, or transferred to the FBI.
