I thought I was going mad. I mean, the two autopsies were nearly identical. It was déjà vu all over again.

Hey, that's a Yogi Berra quote.

The cartoon character?

Not Yogi Bear, Yogi Berra.

Well, judging by your reaction, he's either a sportsperson or a bouncer at a strip club.

Gentlemen's club.

Gibbs

This autopsy give us anything the other one didn't?

The bullet was in better shape. And I noticed something peculiar in his nose, so I did a swab.

Gibbs

A swab, Duck? Kind of old school, isn't it?

Oh, I just go where the evidence takes me. I recall a case in my early career, yeah, before we had the benefit of all this marvelous technology. A young man, barely 20 years old, he had jelly from a doughnut on his face.

Gibbs

Ducky?

Yes?

Gibbs

What did you find in his nose?

Cellulosic fiber, lignin.

Gibbs

Wood.

Well, sawdust, to be precise.

Hey, Boss, don't you have some kind of weird thing about women and sawdust? I don't think it's weird.

Laura Seeger said that her husband had a woodshop out back.

Gibbs

Yeah, well, she also said he hadn't used it in a month. I mean, it wouldn't still be there in his nose after a month, would it, Ducky?

No, that was recent.

Well, he could've been woodworking somewhere else.

Gibbs

Yeah, he could've.

Yeah, something else showed up on the swab. A dog's hair.

Laura Seeger had two dogs in the back. But she seems to have a solid alibi.

Gibbs

One of her errands was to the bank. Charlie could give us the surveillance tapes. They'd all be time-stamped.

Yeah, but if she was guilty, why would she just offer up her DNA so freely?

Gibbs

Because she didn't know we had something to match it to.

[Tony, Kate, and Gibbs are sitting in wait against their car after Gibbs claims he saw a bomb in the house they were searching]

Are you sure it was a bomb, Gibbs?

Gibbs

Yes, DiNozzo. For the last time... I'm sure it was a bomb.

If you say so. EOD sure taking their sweet time getting here.

[Van arrives with Ducky and Gerald]

Sorry we're late. Gerald got us lost several times.

Me? You had the map.

Gibbs

We have our own problems here, Ducky.

Yeah, I can see that. FBI take over our crime scene again?

Gibbs thought he saw a bomb.

Gibbs

[annoyed] What do you mean 'thought'?

Do I really have to say it?

Gibbs

Say what?

Yes, Kate. Say what?

You need glasses, Gibbs. Are you happy?

[behind them, the house suddenly explodes, sending everyone exclaiming to the ground]

Gibbs

[slowly lifting his head] Sorry. I didn't quite catch that last part...

FCFBI Agent Charles

You're under arrest.

Gibbs

For what?

CCharles

Pissing off the FBI.

Gibbs

Get used to it.

Where the hell are you? Fornell's here with a warrant for your arrest.

Gibbs

Well, good thing I'm not there then.

Gibbs

Tony, touch my cell phone again, I'll break your fingers. (The Elevator door closes)

(Attempts to reassure) You know he really does like you.

I don't know. Guys have all sorts of strange rituals before they go out. This one guy, he does a full upper body workout just seconds before his date just so he can be pumped.

Gibbs

Does Tony know that you know?

Does Tony know that you know?

Guy was really interested in reality shows. Real World, Simple Life, Punk'd...

Gibbs

Punk'd?

Geez, Gibbs. Even I know what Punk'd is.

It's an MTV show where they play tricks on celebrities while secretly filming it.

Gibbs

Like Candid Camera.

What's Candid Camera?

Gibbs

[catches McGee looking at him] What the hell are you doing?

Um..

Gibbs

Can you form a sentence, Agent McGee?

The NCIS investigator was Agent Clay Williamson, sir.

Gibbs

That's a good sentence.
