[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?
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!
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.
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!
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.
Did you just use the word cahoots?
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?
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.
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]
[Palmer enters the squad room wearing a trench coat and looking very excited]
Excuse me, my friends, if I may have your attention please.
Looks like you're about to burst into song, Jimmy.
Nah, it's much better than that.
Why the coat on such a lovely day?
Holy full frontal, Autopsy Gremlin. Are you about to flash us your "Magic Johnson"?
[Palmer removes his trench coat to reveal his wedding tux. Tony, McGee and Ziva all look at him in shock with their mouths open.]
[Tony and Ziva are at the crime scene. Ducky and Palmer have just arrived.]
[without looking up at Tony and Ziva] What have we here, Jethro?
What we have here is no Jethro.
[looks up in surprise] What??
He's actually running late.
Ohhh. [laughs] Here's a first.
[looks at Palmer, who's still in his tux] Sort of like wearing fuchsia and lime green to a crime scene.
[embarrassed] I didn't have time to change.
Perhaps those colors will raise the dead, Mr Palmer.
Poor guy. He looks like a pretzel.
Agent Lisson is all the help I need. We work like peas in a poke, like yogurt and garlic, like-- [Gibbs gives her a funny look]
There's pigs in a poke and peas in a pod but..
It's a Middle Eastern staple.
[sarcastically] Which I'm sure we're gonna find in all the best Colombian restaurants. [Gibbs laughs]
[Tony, Ziva, and Burley have arrived back at NCIS, and are stepping out of the elevator. The squad room is full, with the entire staff staring at the NCIS Most Wanted wall.]
[He moves towards the top spot on the wall, Osama bin Laden, who has had a red line through his photo for the last year, indicating his death.]
For attacks against the United States Navy: Harper Dearing. [He pastes Dearing's photo over top bin Laden.] Let's go! We've got work to do.
