Bob Sweeney : You guys the cops?
Ellie Bishop : Uh, yep. NCIS.
Bob Sweeney : Well, if you want my advice, I'd look into her.
Clayton Reeves : Why would we do that?
Bob Sweeney : You see this place? You think a petty officer's salary paid for it? No. James' parents, my brother and his wife, they had money.
Emma Sweeney : Get out of my house.
Bob Sweeney : They died in a car crash six years ago, and they left everything they had to their boys. She never had any interest at all in James until they were dead.

Whit Dexter : So, a government organization known as NCIS just paid me a visit. These scumbags are trying to frame me for the murder of a sailor named James Sweeney. Now, I've learned that this sailor was about to go on record, exposing our old friend John Ross. But now that sailor's dead. How did he die? From poisoned cookies in care packages sent by John Ross.
Clayton Reeves : We never said a word to him about Ross.
Nick Torres : Or anything about poison.
Timothy McGee : Dexter shouldn't know how Sweeney died.
Leon Vance : Unless he had something to do with it.

Timothy McGee : [hearing Nick yell in frustration] Everything all right?
Nick Torres : No!

Timothy McGee , Ellie Bishop : I do.

Whit Dexter : Oh. Sucks for him.
Nick Torres : Yo. Enough with the attitude.
Whit Dexter : Have a little bit of respect, mate.

Ellie Bishop : We've been trying to find the original source, but...
Leroy Jethro Gibbs : There are no "buts", Bishop.
Timothy McGee : Boss, we've been looking, but it's like searching for a needle in a haystack.
Clayton Reeves : More like hay mountain.
Ellie Bishop : We'd need to comb through the entire Internet to find the first post describing the murder that all the others piggybacked on.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs : [frustrated] There's a dead sailor. There's a vet being framed. God. Find the source.

Ellie Bishop : I am not built for all-nighters anymore.

Timothy McGee : Well, the earliest post I can find describing the murder is 2:59 on a chat site called JohnOTruth.com.
Ellie Bishop : Mm, I got 2:44 on Twitter.
Clayton Reeves : I can't keep them straight.
Abby Sciuto : Don't worry. I'm keeping a running list of all the posts.

Nick Torres : I got it!
Ellie Bishop : Thank god.
Clayton Reeves : Well, where was it?
Nick Torres : Oh, it was in an e-mail account I forgot I had.
Ellie Bishop : What? Well, what are you talking about?
