- Special Agent Timothy McGee: [last lines; v.o] Anyone can achieve their fullest potential. Who we are might be predetermined, but the paths we follow is always of our own choosing. We should never allow our fears or the expectations of other to set the frontiers of our destiny. Your destiny can't be changed, but it can be challenged. Everyman is born as many men, and dies as a single one.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Boss, partial plate Vance gave us belongs to a stolen car.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Not surprised.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Taken from a lot at Bingham Air Field outside Fairfax.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: Think I just read something in the paper about Bingham. Jason Cutler out of Van Nuys, California, flew his private plane across the country three days ago. After arriving safely in Fairfax, family and friends reported him missing.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Tell Abby; dust the plane for prints. It looks like we found Kai's flight.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: So where's the pilot?
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Dead, most likely.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: He was Kai-jacked.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: Did you really just say that?
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: I regret it already.
- Leon Vance: [to Gibbs] I can protect my own. I'll get Jackie and the kids on the first plane out of here.
- Jackie Vance: No, you won't. 'Cause I'm not going anywhere without you. You know, Leon, when you took this job, I knew there were risks involved. I knew I'd be watching over my shoulder every day, but I always felt safe... until now. And yeah, this woman may have killed your partner, but you are *my* partner now. And I'm not going anywhere.
- Leon Vance: [to Gibbs] Round the clock, at least two agents. Vehicle escorts too.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Done.
- Abby Sciuto: Poison. Both Kai's .22 rounds and the rifle slugs were dipped in a lethal toxin called Atropa Belladona.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Never trust a beautiful woman.
- Lee Wuan Kai: I'm counting on you, Leon.
- Leon Vance: Counting on me for what?
- Lee Wuan Kai: To do what you did before.
- [She lowers the collar of her shirt, revealing an old gunshot wound]
- Leon Vance: [stunned] Everyone said I missed. You should be dead.
- Lee Wuan Kai: [sadly] I was already dead.
- Lee Wuan Kai: Give a girl some credit. I've been doing this for a while. You should know that better than anyone.
- Leon Vance: Every law enforcement officer in the National Capital Region is looking for you, Kai.
- Lee Wuan Kai: I'm flattered, but I only have eyes for you, Director.
- Leon Vance: Kai, you listen to me, you know this won't end well.
- Lee Wuan Kai: And when it does... will you miss me?
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: What about Vance?
- Dr. Donald 'Ducky' Mallard: Well, all of her life, she was pursued by one man. Not physically or sexually, of course, but mentally. He chased her, courted her you might say. Remember she's probably never had a relationship. She doesn't know what it's like to love or be loved. My fear now, is that she'll probably turn to him for help. I mean, in her mind, he's been her partner in all this. The one man she can count on.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: McGee, your McSqueeze is here.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: Amanda? How'd she get upstairs?
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Oh, Security called. I said bring her on up. Surprise, surprise.
- Amanda Barrow: Hey.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: Hey.
- Amanda Barrow: I got your text, but I wanted to say good night.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: Um, Amanda, these, uh, are my coworkers. This is Tony.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Hi.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: And this is Ziva.
- Amanda Barrow: Hi, there.
- Ziva David: Hi. It is a pleasure to meet you.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: She's lying.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Doc worked on somebody.
- Ziva David: So why here, and not in a hospital?
- Leon Vance: [appears] Because the patient didn't want to be seen, that's why.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Director.
- Leon Vance: I saw the PD report. Details I've come across before. I wanted to see for myself.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Copycat?
- Leon Vance: That would be a relief.
- Leon Vance: You chase somebody for almost 20 years, you start to think like them. In someways, I know Kai better than I know myself.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Coincidence, huh?
- Leon Vance: Maybe. You think finding this body in my jurisdiction is coincidence?
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: [knocks on the door] Ms. DeMarco? NCIS. We need to speak with you.
- [No answer]
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: [knocks on the door] Ms. Demarco, open up! We want to talk to you.
- [From behind the door, they hear a shotgun being cocked, and dive out of the way as a hole is blasted through the door]
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: [as they draw their weapons] FEDERAL AGENTS! DROP IT!
- Linda DeMarco: [from behind the door, shouting] Did that piece of filth Cirraux send you? Because I've got a message for him! You can tell him...!
- [peeks through the door]
- Linda DeMarco: Did you say "Federal Agents?"
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: McGee, why don't you take her on a tour of the facility.
- Amanda Barrow: Oh yeah, that would be awesome.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Also, copy room door locks from the inside.
- [winks]
- [first lines]
- Navy Midshipman Alex Delapena: My course. My win.
- Army Cadet Clay Waring.: Remind what you Navy boys are good at again.
- Navy Midshipman Alex Delapena: Kicking Army's ass!
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: You and Kai are probably a lot more alike than you think.
- Ziva David: I do not follow.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Really? A couple of pretty ladies both trained as assasins.
- Ziva David: You annoy me sometimes.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Sometimes?
- Ziva David: *Most* of the time.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Ziva, look at him.
- Ziva David: What are you talking about?
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: He's oozing a musky caveman-esque, primitive satisfaction. Like Heston in Planet of the Apes. And it didn't matter that that world was ruled by orangutangs, because Heston went straight for the mute chick in the loin cloth. You pulled a total Heston, didn't you?
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: I don't know about that. It was only a few minutes.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Yeah, sometimes that's all it takes in my middle-aged world.
- Ziva David: [to DiNozzo] Oh, come on. Stop being such a big brother. He's a field agent. A nomad. I've enough of that in my life. I came to NCIS to... settle down, to make a home for myself. The last thing I need is a Chad Dunham.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: [to McGee] I can tell you were with somebody, you know. You think I don't see that little glint in your eye, spring in your step. Spill, Probelicious, what's her name? Spill.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Look at those come-hither eyes, those perfect kiss-me-now lips. No wonder Vance is obsessed.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: [re: Ziva] Why is she nice to you and not to me?
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: Maybe because you broke into my desk and stole my motivational CDs.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: I put them back.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: You mocked me publicly.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: I always do that!
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: Maybe they're working.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: Lee Wuan Kai. North Korean assassin, one-time fanatical nationalist, credited with twenty-seven targeted hits in seven countries, dozens more by association.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: She likes quiet walks on the beach, laughing with friends, and playing Frisbee with her Cocker Spaniel, Rufus.
- Ziva David: [snatches the file] It does not say that!
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Well, it might as well.
- [Vance and Kai are holding guns on each other]
- Leon Vance: Kai, stop this, please!
- Lee Wuan Kai: I can't.
- Leon Vance: I can help you.
- Lee Wuan Kai: [smiles] Just being there, all these years, you already have.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Connect Cirraux to Pak Su Ji.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Well, the poison's new, it's not part of Kai's previous M.O.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: It's two targets from two different worlds.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Both old guys, lots of money, homes in multiple countries...
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: Both womanizers...
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: But no kids.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: [turns to Tony] What'd you say?
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: They-they don't have kids. Some people don't like rugrats.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Both have a kid's disease. Why?
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: Well, they both had hand-foot-and-mouth virus, so they had to be exposed at some point.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: [smirks] Uh-huh.
- [He turns and dashes for Abby's lab]
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: I hate it when he does that.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: It's totally unsatisfying.
- Agent Chad Dunham: [in the NCIS conference room] You folks sure better in person than on a laptop 7,000 miles away.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Well, you look cleaner.
- Agent Chad Dunham: Welcome home, by the way, Agent David. I haven't had a chance to say that yet.
- Ziva David: Thank you for your help during the mission, Agent Dunham.
- Agent Chad Dunham: Anything to help a lady.
- [Ziva grins]
