- Dr. Donald Mallard: I've been traveling to crime scenes for a great many years, but I can say with complete confidence this is the shortest commute I have ever had.
- Jimmy Palmer: And one of the first times I didn't get us lost.
- Dr. Donald Mallard: True.
- [McGee walks over dressed in his crime scene outfit]
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: [snickering] That's a nice outfit, probie.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: Okay, the handbook says that we are required to wear this outfit at all active crime scenes. You know that.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Yeah, but not in our own building. That's like wearing a name tag in your own apartment.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: When I shot that cop, I felt like everyone doubted me... But after a while...
- Officer Ziva David: Are you trying to make me feel better?
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: Is it not working?
- Officer Ziva David: It's not necessary, McGee.
- [Ziva gently slaps McGee's cheek, then giggles slightly]
- Officer Ziva David: Our only concern should be the Director.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: You're right.
- [Rises up and walks away]
- Officer Ziva David: [to the person on the phone] You put me on hold again, and I'll jump through this phone and I will strangle you!
- operator: Hold, please.
- Officer Ziva David: Hey, McGee. Nobody ever doubted you.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: Just like those calls you're making aren't pointless.
- Officer Ziva David: Look, I know this looks bad. I also know with Brian Dempsey dead, it's nearly impossible to bring down his South African distributors, much less prosecute his brother.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: That's not our biggest problem here, Ziva.
- Officer Ziva David: [nodding] It appears there's only one way to fix this.
- [removes her gun puts it aside]
- Officer Ziva David: I've seen it in your American movies.
- [remove her badge, grabs Gibbs's hand and puts her badge in his hand]
- Officer Ziva David: This is where I resign.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Next time you hand me your badge,
- [gives her badge back]
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: you had better be prepared to lose it.
- Officer Ziva David: It's a simple conversation! You know?
- [as Gibbs]
- Officer Ziva David: "What do you have, Ducky?"
- [as Ducky]
- Officer Ziva David: "Well, Jethro, this reminds me of a time back at Scotland Yard when I..."
- [as Gibbs]
- Officer Ziva David: "To the point, Ducky."
- [as Ducky]
- Officer Ziva David: "Well, based on my preliminary findings, Ziva did *not* kill this man."
- [as Gibbs]
- Officer Ziva David: "Ah..."
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Ziva, let me ask you something: where did you learn to do that? Years of training in some mountain desert retreat? Blind Master Po always one step ahead of you?
- [He flicks his hand at her, holding an eraser in his palm, and imitating Master Po from "Kung Fu."]
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: When you take the pebble from my hand, it will be time...
- [Ziva snatches the eraser away]
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Whoa... do that again!
- Officer Ziva David: [venting] I'm being treated like a leopard!
- Dr. Donald Mallard: I believe the phrase is, "Like a leper."
- Officer Ziva David: [Ziva and Tony are taping Brian Dempsey's hands to the steering wheel] Three and 11.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Two and 10. And that explains a lot.
- Officer Ziva David: Jenny can take care of herself, Gibbs. She was a good agent.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Still is!
- NCIS Special Agent Cassie Yates: The only thing James loves more than money is his baby brother. As long as you've got Brian in custody, James should be easy to manipulate.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Brian Dempsey's dead. You still think he'll be easy to manipulate, Cassie?
- NCIS Special Agent Cassie Yates: I'm on my way!
- Officer Ziva David: [as they're driving to the hangar withe Brian Dempsey in the driver's seat] Are you trying to make me sick or something, Tony?
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: You know what, I can't see the windshield, I'm driving with my hands, and I *still* think I'm a better driver than you.
- Officer Ziva David: To the left!... THE OTHER LEFT!
- Cynthia Sumner: I'm NOT trying to be difficult. But the Director has been *very* clear, her schedule is confidential, even to you.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Are you done?
- [Cynthia nods]
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Director Shepard has been kidnapped. I need to know where she was when it happened.
- Cynthia Sumner: Okay.
- [Abby catches herself taking photos of the crime scene in a "tourist" outfit]
- Abby Sciuto: Oh, my God... I've turned into my Uncle Larry!
- [strapping Brian Dempsey's corpse into the driver's seat of a car]
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: They never had this much trouble with Bernie.
- Officer Ziva David: Who the hell is Bernie?
