I recently sent an e-mail to the real NCIS to get their ideas on the situation. I am waiting for their response.

I understand that you would like to see your script as a NCIS episode. Personally I see more potential in the premise as a stand alone movie.
Think a mix of Crimson Tide, Speed and Die Hard with a vengeance.
Bar a coffin or the trunck of a car, you are unlikely to find more claustrophobic and confined settings than a submarine.

The movies 12 rounds (1 and 2) are exactly based on the concept that an all seeing vengeful antagonist makes the protagonist run through challenges. To win the protagonist has to outsmart and/or outfight him.
All you need is to write increasingly difficult challenges:

+ Make them run through the submarine just to find an object
+ cut their ability to communicate across the submarine so they have to use runners (physical/visual better than talky walky)
+ Solve a riddle to find the next clue.
+ Somebody sacrifies himself.
+ Cut their air supply.

Hope all those ideas help with your script. Let me know when you finishes it.
