“Identity Crisis” · Season 5, Episode 4

In this episode: Tony DiNozzo (7), Leroy Jethro Gibbs (5), Ziva David (4), Abby Sciuto (2), Fornell (2), Timothy McGee (1), Ducky Mallard (1), Jimmy Palmer (1)

[Ziva and McGee are focused at his computer and grinning as Tony walks in]

[chuckles] Aw, not bad....

Look at this one... you're gonna love this guy.

Yeah, he would not be safe with me... I would eat him.

He'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?

Looking 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...

Yeah, 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.

Which 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.

Tony, 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?

[Tony, Ziva and McGee are discussing which dog to get as Gibbs walks past]

How about an Australian Shepherd. They're working dogs.

[Tony, Ziva and McGee start to get up to help Gibbs]

Siiiiiit. [they slowly sit back down] Stay. [smiles and walks off] Roll over.

[watching an arrest in MTAC] An NCIS production. Presented by Leroy Jethro Gibbs. [On screen, FBI agents are running into building] Starring, as per usual, the FBI.

[Ducky is in his autopsy room instructing a group of medical interns]

The adult human brain weighs approximately three pounds.

Feels like a soggy grape fruit.

[After a moment, one of the interns notices silver fluid leaking out of the removed brain.]

LCLt. Carl Greer

Uh, Doctor? Is this natural?

[cups his hands and catches the liquid] Certainly not.

LCLt. Carl Greer

What the hell is that?

[in horror] This, my dear lieutenant... is murder.

Highland Beach in October. Not much of a tourist draw. Soft-shelled crab season's almost over. People really like boats that much?

You work for the Navy, DiNozzo.

This is why I love you guys. You bring me hair, you bring me blood, you bring me fluids... and mercury.

[At Fornell's office]

Who do you work for Tobias? Homeland Security or the FBI?

World's on my shoulders Gibbs.

World made of paper.

[...]

Kinda defeats the purpose of e-mail when you have to print it all out for the file anyway.

Yeah. That's why I don't use it.

Really? Not because you can't figure out how to work it?

[Gibbs, Fornell and Jenny Shepard enter MTAC where Tony, Ziva and Courtney are waiting for them]

FCFBI Agent Courtney Krieger

The boss looks mad.

[Fornell glares at her]

He's going to chew you up.

Out. "Chew you out." Or maybe not. Maybe he's one of those silent killer types.

[in disbelief] You think the kid's Kamal? He would have had to start when he was eight years old!

Not if he's the new Dread Pirate Roberts.

[gasps] I love The Princess Bride! "No one would ever surrender to the Dread Pirate Westley."

[They laugh, Gibbs and Fornell stare blankly at both of them.]

[turns his laugh into a cough] Uh, the Dread Pirate Roberts picks a successor, trains him, starts calling him "Roberts," then settles into a cushy retirement. It's the name Kamal that sells the business.

[watching an arrest in MTAC] An NCIS production. Brought to you by Leroy Jethro Gibbs. [On screen, FBI agents are running into building] Starring, as usual, the FBI, and the elusive Kamal Konkani.

Freeze it.

[The picture freezes as Fornell and Krieger seize the real Kamal.]

[British accent] The Dread Pirate Roberts, I presume.

[mimicking his accent] Did you get her number?

Who, Courtney? No.

I did.
