...Because I think that this - might all be my fault...

Gibbs

Maybe it is.

How can you say that, Gibbs? Just because some - some defective lunatic can't get it into his head that I think he is a defective...lunatic... That is not my fault. It's not my fault at all... It's not my fault. [realizing it really isn't her fault] it's not my fault. Huh. [picks up a hammer and chisel] I see why you like to work on the boat, Gibbs. Very, very cathartic. [puts the tools on the boat and breaks off a chunk] Oops. [gives Gibbs back his tools]

[Tony & Gibbs have just found Abby, (who is in a very "Wonder Woman" pose) repeatedly shocking the hitman with her stun gun]

I'll be with you in a minute, Gibbs. [continues shocking the man] And don't look up my skirt!

Gibbs

[laughing, nods in approval] Okay.

Apparently there was some kind of bloodbath.

Mondays. What's the body count?

Gibbs

Who said anything about a body, DiNozzo?

Yeah, most people don't know this, but financial disputes, second-leading cause of divorce.

Really? What's number one?

Gibbs

Marriage.

CCynthia

Here's everything, 9 a.m with the GAO, 10:30 with the ATCC.

Gibbs

And after lunch a meeting with the BOB.

CCynthia

Uh, that's congressman Bob Summers, he's a friend.

(Ziva and Gibbs are talking in hospital room.)

Gibbs

We work together?

Yes. I'm a Mossad officer attached to your team.

Gibbs

Mossad? When did they start doing that...

It's been a year.

Gibbs

Don't feel bad, I worked for that...

Ducky 10 years and you don't remember him!

Gibbs

Do you always finish people sentenc...

Only when I'm in a hurry.

[Ziva has gone to see Gibbs in the hospital. She walks in and he is asleep. When she walks over he grabs her arm and gets out of the bed. She starts telling him about some of the things he doesn't remember. She ends up telling him about Ari and Kate.]

Ari...... Ari killed Kate! And I...... I killed Ari! [she starts crying]

Gibbs

Your brother? You killed your brother to save me?

[crying] Yes.

[Gibbs glares at her, frustrated]

See? That's it!

Gibbs

That's what?!

The old Gibbs stare!

[Gibbs continues to look frustrated. Ziva grabs his hand and uses it to head-slap herself]

[Gibbs hugs her as his memory returns and she cries]

Gibbs

[gets his gun and badge back from Tony, gives him a long look] You'll do.

[Gibbs puts his gun and badge in Tony's hands, and squeezes his shoulder]

Gibbs

It's your team now. [turns to McGee] You're a good agent, Tim. Don't let him tell you otherwise.

I won't, boss.

Gibbs... [Gibbs puts his finger over Abby's lips and kisses her on the cheek]

Gibbs

[walks back to Ziva] I owe you, Ziva.

I'll collect, Jethro.

Gibbs

Pinpin Pula is an arrogant son of a bitch! He thought the bomb he planted would kill me!

DDDeputy Director Welsh

So, he's not a suicide bomber?

Gibbs

For God's sakes, order that frigate to break off!

DDDeputy Director Welsh

I can't do that.

Gibbs

Is everyone up there as stupid as you?! Pinpin Pula is on the Cape Fear! He's the radioman! He intercepts every BOLO we send him, and he replies, "No Pinpin here"!

DDDeputy Director Welsh

We got that, Special Agent Gibbs! It's why we didn't communicate with Cape Fear until... [turns around] NOW!

Gibbs

Jeff! Thank God you're there. Can you get your SEALs on board without being seen?

CJCommander Jeff Fletcher

We can execute a HALO insertion within ten hours.

DDDeputy Director Welsh

The Cape Fear will have entered the Med, that's unacceptable. If anything happens, it'll be on some tourist video camera!

Gibbs

The sailors on that frigate have video cameras!

DDDeputy Director Welsh

We can confiscate those videos.

Gibbs

[dumbfounded] What?! YOU DON'T WANT THIS BEING SEEN?!!

DDDeputy Director Welsh

An accident at sea is better than an act of terrorism.

[Gibbs looks over at cameras, and he notices people boarding the Cape Fear]

Gibbs

IT'S TOO LATE!!!

[on the Cape Fear]

Cape Fear, heave to. Stand by to be boarded for inspection, heave to. Stand by to be boarded for inspection.

[back in DC]

Gibbs

[to Deputy Director Welsh] You BASTARD!!

Gibbs

Today, Ziva!

Okay. I may be in a little bit of trouble.

Gibbs

Yeah? Define little.

I am currently on the run from the FBI, NCIS, Mossad and my father.

Gibbs

Geez, what'd you do?

The target's name was Abdul Wazir. A Syrian wanted for crimes against the state of Israel. Terminated by this man, Mossad Officer Namir Eschel, my former teammate when I was stationed in Paris.

Gibbs

Who's supposed to be dead.

Apparently he's gotten better.

Things are bad enough for NCIS as it is, Tony. You can't --

[interrupting] I don't remember asking your opinion, Officer David.

You see? He's been completely insufferable since you left.

Gibbs

That true, Tony?

When I need to be.

Gibbs

Yeah? Maybe you were the right man for the job.

Gibbs

I got this little girl who wants to go home to her dad, and that's not gonna happen without your help. So... please?

Did Gibbs just say...?

(stunned) Mm-hmm.
