His cover is teaching film online in American university.
Tony, a teacher?
McGeeNo wonder he's been compromised. Who's bright idea was that?
Mine.
McGeeWhat was that for?
Believing I was dead.
McGeeHey, I never believed that you were dead. Ziva was the one that gave up on you.
Don't even think about the headslap.
I'm just being curious.
McGeeAbout when I lost my virginity.
No, you misunderstood. I'm not asking when you lost your virginity but if you lost it.
[Seeing Tony working at his desk] What's wrong with this picture?
McGeeYou mean, beside Tony being here before us? And actually working?
I can hear you, you know.
I am here if you'd like to talk.
About what?
I know how much you cared about her.
I'm fine, Ziva.
All right. But I thought maybe you'd need a little cheering up.
If I needed to be cheered up, I would've put superglue on McGee's keyboard.
McGeeYou put superglue on my keyboard!
McGeeAll right. I think I know what happened here.
Oh, twenty bucks says McGee's about to say something nobody understands again.
McGeeThe GPS coordinates came bundled in a proprietary packet. Since it was a beta, I thought-
I'm starting to think you can't help yourself, McGee.
[Tony enters the squad room singing "Luck Be a Lady" out loud and listening to his iPod]
[Ziva makes the "cut it out" sign]
Hi. [notices Gibbs glaring at him] Hey Boss. Sorry about that. It's, uh, Sinatra. You gotta sing along. I mean it's Old Blue Eyes, Chairman of the Board. I'm gonna rat pack it up.
[Gibbs turns and glares at Abby, who is smiling away]
[McGee is intently listening to his iPod at his desk]
Becoming an alpha male means that without saying a word, you're able to project confidence and sexuality simply through your body language....
[Unbeknownst to McGee, Gibbs has been standing right next to him glaring at him all this time. McGee notices and jumps, startled.]
McGeeMIT lecture. [Gibbs continues staring at him] Nothing I can't listen to on my own time.
It's the newest version Gibbs. It's 160 gigabytes. You could download like 40,000 songs.
I only listen to 5, Abs.
Five thousand?
No! Five!
Oh Gibbs, we really have to broaden your horizons. I could download some of my music for you.
[Col Mann and Gibbs are in front of the house/crime scene while Tony, Ziva and McGee are prepping and bringing their equipment out of the van]
McGeeDead Marine.
Army base.
Her rock smashes his scissors, which puts the Colonel on top.
You work for me on this one Jethro. It's my army base, my crime scene.
And my people, my office.
[McGee observes Mann and Gibbs from the van]
They know we're still seeing each other?
[Gibbs smiles at her]
McGeeShe--
Still on top?
McGeeSeeing Gibbs.
Same thing. But an excellent question nonetheless, Probie.
[Gibbs, Mann, Abby, Tony and Ziva confront Fred at the elevator]
So it was greed, huh.
DiNozzo?
My acting boss says you ain't going anywhere.
What did you sell and who did you sell it to?
Maybe if you cut me a deal, I'll tell you.
[smiles] Abby?
[Gibbs steps aside and Abby punches Fred in the face. Everyone winces except...]
McGee[grins] Sweet.
[Tony arrests Fred]
[Ziva and McGee are focused at his computer and grinning as Tony walks in]
[chuckles] Aw, not bad....
McGeeLook at this one... you're gonna love this guy.
Yeah, he would not be safe with me... I would eat him.
McGeeHe's so adorable! How can you say no to that face...
[chuckles]
Please tell me you're looking for a man for Ziva.
[gives him a stare] Not me.
Oh! [wanders over] McGoo... is there something you wanna tell me?
McGeeLooking at animal rescue sites.
McGee is thinking about getting a puppy.
Puppy's a lot of work. You gotta feed it, walk it, train it...
McGeeYeah, I'm not twelve, alright. I work hard. I deserve someone that will jump up, all excited when I get home, you know. Lay on the couch, watch TV. Maybe lick my face a little bit...
[exchanges amused looks with him and chuckles]
Might be easier getting a girlfriend.
[gives him a distasteful look] Ehh.
McGeeWhich might be even easier with a puppy. [Tony gets a look on his face, slowly meeting McGee's gaze] Even for you.
I'm not ready to start taking tips on this from you yet, probie.
McGeeTony, I think it's time you get back on that horse.
[looks confused] Are you getting a pony?
It's an adage.
I am not familiar with that breed.
Yeah, well they are quite rare. Sort of a cross between a pegasus and a unicorn.
So, what's the favorite?
[annoyed] The Pit Bull.
Yeah, that makes sense for you, actually. Not really for McGee. He seems more like a Spaniel kind of guy. Cocker, maybe?
[McGee and Tony enter a therapist's waiting room. Tony is about to knock on the therapist's office door when McGee stops him]
McGeeDon't do that!
Do what?
McGeeHe might be with someone! [He turns on a light switch]
That tells him someone's here?
[Tony impatiently switches the switch on and off several times quickly]
McGeeHaven't you ever been to a therapist before?
Me? No. [Sits on a couch] You?
McGeeYeah. Once when I was young.
For your Acrophobia?
McGeeYou're blowing that all out of proportion, Tony.
Well, you showed a pathological fear of heights today.
McGeeI was staring down ten stories. Being a little disoriented is a little understandable.
Disoriented? Your panties were in a twist. Tears in your eyes. Oh, wait. I couldn't see your eyes because they were shut so tight! You were hysterical like a little girl!
McGeeI was not.
You were huggin' the ladder. Ladder hugger. And I got the photographic evidence. [Pulls out a camera phone] Let technology show you the truth. [Shows McGee a video of him nervously on the ladder]
McGeeMy eyes are not closed. I was blinking.
[Looks at the video] Oh. Oh, is that- Is that what you were doing? Let's let the people decide.
McGeeYou're not going to post that on YouTube?
I might.
McGeeYou give me that thing or I'm gonna-- [Tony shuts the phone] Hey! [Begins wrestling for the phone]
[Holding the phone away from McGee's grasp] What are you gonna do? What are you gonna do?
[Both begin fighting over the phone]
Hey, hey. Hey. [Both stop fighting] You two have deeper issues than you discussed on the phone.
On the phone?
Aren't you the couple who called up about marriage counseling?
McGee[Realizes] Couple? Us? No, no... [Begins moving away from Tony]
It's okay, Timmy. Timmy. We're in a safe place. We can be ourselves here. [McGee quickly moves away from Tony and stands in front of Dr. Fleming] We just got back from Vermont. Pretty there this time of year.
McGeeSorry. [Shows Dr. Fleming his badge] NCIS. Special Agents McGee, and DiNozzo.
[Stands] Very special agents.
[McGee has just saved Tony from falling from a high level of a parking garage and they are both sitting on the ground against the concrete partition, panting.]
I love you, McGee. [pats McGee's knee] I promise I am never going to give you a hard time again.
McGeeYeah, right. [Tony pats McGee's chest, McGee bats his hand away.]
You guys okay?
McGeeOh, yeah, we're peachy. I am dealing with my boat phobia, Tony is dealing with his rat phobia and Ziva is dealing with her ghost phobia.
So, what's Gibbs dealing with?
Them.
[McGee stumbles and falls backwards]
Steady Probie.
McGeeTell that to my stomach.
[crouches down] Steady Probie's stomach.
So this whole thing was a Russian black ops mission to recover their nuke?
McGeeSo pirates that weren't really pirates were actually Russian sailors who were on a covert mission to steal a Navy research ship that wasn't actually a Navy research ship in order to get back nuclear weapons that we thought they didn't think we had retrieved?
[smiles] Uh-huh.
