“The Tell” · Season 9, Episode 18

In this episode: Ziva David (5), Tony DiNozzo (4), Timothy McGee (2)

[On the stairs above the bullpen holding her cellphone, whispering loudly] Hey McGee, Vance isn't here either.

Uh, doesn't his son have a soccer game in Alexandria?

No that is next week. Tony's ignoring my phone calls, and it is very unlike Gibbs to just disappear like this. [whispering loudly] Something is going on!

Actually, I think Tony said something about being on SECNAV's PSD today.

That's probably a cover. I think they must be at some kind of..."Man Day". [McGee looks confused] You know, when men take a day to do "man" things together?

Really?

Just because I am a woman, they do not have the courtesy to tell me where they are going, and when they are coming back!

[pauses] I'm a man!

That's right! Which makes this even worse. [angrily dials her phone] I'm gonna call Tony again!

[Tony enters squad room]

[he and Ziva tail Tony] Hey, where have you been? We've been calling. What's going on?

Man Day is over and he's still ignoring us. [follows Tony] I'm not going to be ignored!

Glenn Close, Fatal Attraction. It's a good one, Ziva. Your impression of a hot lady with crazy eyes is dead on, by the way. You are a, uh, sphinx of a minx. Game on, fellas, just like we planned it.

Tony, do not try to talk your way out of this by calling me hot.

He also called you crazy, Ziva.

I will unleash crazy on him if he does not apologize for leaving me out of the loop.

I'm telling you, I saw bounce in his step and Elliott was sure about Ryan's pupils as well.

How am I gonna survive Gibbs dating a woman who thinks I'm a game show host? What does it even mean? Does she think I am cheesy, that I like pencil-thin microphones?

Are you sure this is the place?

You know what happens if you don't trust the authority of McMaps! All right.

[Tony and Ziva prepare to search a van]

[whispers to Ziva] Be like Silence of the Lambs meets Scooby Doo.

[opens van door] Freeze! Hands up!

AAmanda

Do I look like I'm running?

Amanda Baylor, you have the right....to take a bath! You smell like a wild goat!

AAmanda

I've been busy.

Too busy for personal hygiene?

AAmanda

When I'm focused, I'm focused.

[to Ziva] Well, McGee likes 'em gamey, but I'm not sure he'll go for this one.

AAmanda

Ohh, I clean up nice.

Why don't you put the computer down and step out here. Let's go, Animal Kingdom, c'mon. [Amanda steps out of van]

So, who are you working with?

AAmanda

Ummm, I don't know.

Well, we know some stuff about the blackmail and about the AUTEC account.

We also know that you are in cahoots with someone inside Wickes Steel.

AAmanda

Ummm...

Did you just use the word cahoots?

I did.

Nice.

AAmanda

Alright, somebody hired me through Wilkes, but, uh, I don't have a name. Didn't want one.

Was it Ridgeway? Did you kill him?

AAmanda

I don't kill people, I hack! I really haven't left the van.

No kidding. Next time, hacker, why don't you crack a window?

Uhh no, Vance nailed you with the shredding detail, huh?

Yes, from redacted, to unredacted, to recycling to... Tony, I have a question. Do you believe?

Believe in what?

Uhh, well unexplained things, secrets, occurrences that we're really not supposed to talk about.

Uhhh. I believe that there are moments, experiences that someone like McGee with his trusty computer couldn't justify.

When Gibbs left tonight, I thought I saw it again.

Saw what?

The bounce.

I've been thinking about that. Boss don't bounce.

You cannot expect a person to keep things bottled up inside forever. Can you? [they look at each other]
