A brief recap of episode 7 before NCIS: Sydney season 3 episode 8 arrives

Episode 7 focused on Joel Corbel, who was arrested after being found covered in blood and trying to destroy part of a treasure map. The team had to deal with tricky jurisdiction issues while investigating his connection to Yamashita’s Gold. Evie got help from Vinny Reeves, uncovering a story full of hidden treasure, family rivalries, and a risky auction.

The case became more dangerous when NCIS discovered that Kenji Takahata had been murdered and the Black Falcon Group was involved. Joel’s father tricked him into helping with the treasure hunt, then abandoned him.

Using his sharp memory, Joel helped NCIS find the hidden site, but the gold had already been taken. The team caught the criminals, and Joel briefly made peace with his father before returning to the U.S., leaving some questions open for episode 8.
