The episode with rock n' roll got the worst ratings

Season 11, Episode 17 of "NCIS," titled "Rock and a Hard Place," follows the "NCIS" team of agents as they investigate an explosion at a military benefit concert. A naval officer and one other member of military personnel are casualties of the blast, but the team soon learns that they are not the intended targets.

Keith Carradine plays a rock n' roll has-been named Mannheim Gold (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3548334/characters/nm0001018) in this episode, and the team has suspicions that he may be the true target of the explosion. As the story progresses, the attack reveals itself to be a part of something bigger than an old-school rock musician. Ultimately, agents Leroy Jethro Gibbs (Mark Harmon) and Ellie Bishop successfully apprehend the man responsible.

Overall, the episode isn't terribly painful to watch, but as far as Season 11 goes, "Rock and a Hard Place" got a 7.3 rating on IMDb (https://www.imdb.com/title/tt3548334/). The storyline is a bit predictable and doesn't standout in anyway, leading to the lowest IMDb rating out of every Season 11 episode of "NCIS." While the fact that this is the lowest rating of the season is a testament to the quality of "NCIS" episodes, "Rock and a Hard Place" is still the episode with the worst storyline (https://www.looper.com/761320/the-worst-storyline-in-ncis-season-12/) in Season 11.
