following her resignation from ncis in season ten, ziva returns to israel. following an explosion, and the subsequent death of secretary clayton jarvis, the remaining members of gibbs' team are informed that ziva's life is in danger. dinozzo travels to israel in order to ensure her safety, and the two share a passionate kiss. in season thirteen, it is revealed that they also consummated their relationship, leading to ziva becoming pregnant. though dinozzo was not informed of this, ziva gave birth to a daughter named tali. in season thirteen ("family first"), ziva's farmhouse is destroyed in a mortar attack ordered by cia agent trent kort. although tali is found alive, the ncis crew are informed that ziva is dead, though her remains are not found at the house. dinozzo subsequently departs ncis in order to care for their daughter, and travel to both israel (in search of answers), and paris (as "ziva loves paris").
ziva david
michael rivkin (merik tadros) first appears in the episode "last man standing" as a mossad officer. he is working with ziva david when she is on an undercover mission for the mossad in morocco (ziva having been dismissed from ncis in the previous episode). later on in the episode, he is seen in the office of the head of mossad, eli david, ziva's father, as ziva talks on the phone to gibbs. tony becomes suspicious of the man that ziva appears to be dating, and keeps trying to find out who he is. for example, in the episode "legend (part 1)", tony asks abby to check the records on rivkin. in the episode "legend (part 2)", michael appears as an undercover mossad agent who is investigating the same terrorists that ncis is investigating, killing them off one by one before ncis can apprehend them. he is asked to leave the u.s. by ncis agent in charge in los angeles, lara macy and later by dinozzo, both of them citing laws that prohibit foreign intelligence operatives from working in the united states. in the episode "semper fidelis", what appears to be an open and shut case of an immigrations, customs and enforcement agent killed by a terrorist is complicated by the presence of rivkin, who is still in the us visiting ziva. tony traces communication with the terrorist's computer to ziva's apartment, where he finds rivkin. after attempting to arrest an intoxicated rivkin for the murders of the ice agent and the terrorist handler ncis was tracking, a struggle ensues and tony shoots rivkin in self-defense. ziva later enters her apartment and attempts to help rivkin but he succumbs to his injuries and dies in hospital. finally, in the episode "aliyah", the relationship between rivkin and ziva comes out and this leads gibbs, leon vance, and tony to israel. there eli david accuses tony of killing rivkin out of jealousy and ziva, no longer able to trust tony, stays in israel.
