[CAR HORN HONKS]

MAN 1 :
Hello.

Sir, wash your window?

[MAN 2 COUGHS]

MAN 3:
Come on, man.

DRIVER: Come on, keep moving.
MAN 1 : Almost done.

DRIVER:
I don't need it, go on.

WOMAN:
No.

- Pusher's back.
- I'm starving like Lee Marvin, McGee.

TONY: What's taking you so long?
- He's making another deal.

We're here to find out
who stole Navy radar

and stashed it across the street.
He's not our problem.

Unless he's pushing
steak-and-cheese hoagies.

I'm a sworn federal agent, Tony.

I'm not gonna stand by
and watch a felony go down.

That's a good idea,

blow our stakeout
over a $50 crack sale.

- If Gibbs doesn't slap you silly, I will.
- Oh, you're gonna slap me?

If that's what you want, honey.

Go for it, McFreaky.

- Goldilocks is just your type.
- Bite me.

That'll be extra.

[GIGGLES]

McGEE: Whoa!
GOLDILOCKS: Hey.

[SNICKERING]

TONY:
Nuh-ha.

[DOOR OPENS]

Hey, monitor number two
was flickering there.

Fixed it.

McGEE:
I think I've seen that Beemer before.

TONY: Yeah?
We've seen it all before, McGee.

It feels like we've been stuck here
for months doing nothing.

Come on. I said scrambled.

You haven't gotten a single order right
in four days.

- They're eggs. Eat them.
- Well, I don't like sunny-side up.

Sunny-side up oozes.

They look like eyes.
They're looking at you.

I'll bet your burrito's
just the way you like it.

[SIGHS]

You want your eggs scrambled?

They're scrambled.

ZIVA:
Do you think prostitutes get bored?

I mean, the same work
day in, day out, day in, day out--

Ziva. The storage facility?

[SIGHS]

I'm sorry, Gibbs. I just get bored.
I hate stakeouts.

[LOUD MUSIC PLAYS
OVER COMPUTER]

GIBBS:
Abby.

- Abby!
- Gibbs.

[CONTAINERS CLATTERING]

[TURNS MUSIC VOLUME DOWN]

Hey, Gibbs.
I was just stacking specimen jars.

- Haven't heard from you.
- I know. I miss you too.

It's so quiet around here.

I had to go get my own Caf-Pow!

Did you know
they raised the price 25 cents?

Did you come up with anything?

That depends
on what you mean by "anything."

Anything, Abby. Anything.

Anything that can tell us
who rented the storage locker.

ZIVA: Gibbs? Van.
- You give me too much to work with.

McGee found a gum wrapper
in the storage locker.

I ran fingerprints, DNA, ultraviolet.
Nothing, nada, zero.

GIBBS: Watch the hallway.
- What I did get is a smudge.

I got two prints
off the rental agreement.

One matched the office manager.

And the other,
it's a three-point partial

that could be our fictitious rentee
of Locker 23.

Abby.

AFIS gave me 3,251 possible matches
just in the D.C. metropolitan area.

So many men, so little time.

They are in our hallway.

Gibbs?

[COMPUTER CHIRPS]

ZIVA:
Twenty-three.

Twenty-three. Locker 23 to the left.

Twenty-three.

Please.

[BANGS TABLE]

[SIGHS]

Keep an eye on them.

They are late.

I'm gonna call DiNozzo.

They may have killed each other.

[LINE RINGS]

TONY [OVER PHONE]: DiNozzo.
- Ah.

- Where are you?
- I just left my place.

Are you kidding me?

- How long will it take you to get here?
- Like, an hour.

Your goose is fried.

Cooked.

And, no, it's not. Only a minute late.

Idiot.

Where's Gibbs?

- Hmm. What'd I miss?
- Goldilocks hooked up

with Papa Bear and they
found a bed that is "just right."

- I think she could've done better.
- What?

The Jack she is with is gross.

- You mean John.
- You know him?

Oh, my God.

[TOILET FLUSHING, DOOR OPENS]

Whew. If you care, DiNozzo,
nobody came to the storage locker.

Hey, boss.

Where is McGee?

Oh, yeah,
I wanted to talk to you about that.

We finally agreed on something.
We're gonna commute separately.

You see, he's always whining.
It's all he does.

The air conditioning,
and this and that.

Is there any way
we can shuffle the deck?

You know,
sort of do this differently?

I don't know, mix it up a little.

Or not. You know, we'll figure it out.
We'll work it out.

[DOOR OPENS]

Sorry, boss, there was an accident
on the Mason Bridge.

- The e-mail?
McGEE: Still working on it.

It's definitely a free account
opened under a fictitious name.

Knew that two days ago.

Trying to track the path,
but there are several servers.

Whoever tipped us off about
the radar being in the storage locker

is going to great lengths
to remain anonymous.

The pusher's back.
So is the suit in the Beemer.

Guy's dealing drugs up the street.

Yeah. Noticed.

Same buyer was here yesterday too.
Love to bust them.

Record it.

Turn it over to Metro
when we're done.

[DOOR OPENS]

ZIVA:
Have a nice day, McGee.

[ZIVA CHUCKLES]

Alone at last.

You watch.

I'll do this, you do that.

You're a dead man, McGee.

[CHUCKLES]

Don't look at me, raccoon boy.

- It was Ziva.
- Ziva.

MAN 1 : I did everything you want!
What do you want?

- I'm through!
McGEE: Something's going on.

MAN 1 : You got all you can.
MAN 2: Come on.

[DOOR CLANGS]

Somebody help.
Call 911, man. Call 911.

Call the police. Come on.

Hey, is he dead?

Is he dead? What's going on?

[CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKING]

WOMAN:
Driver's licence and car registration

ID him as Scott Matthew Rowe.

44, home address
in the Adams Morgan district.

Doesn't look like a robbery.

We've got video of him
going into the alley with a suspect.

- Really?
- Caucasian.

- Early 30s.
- Lucky break.

So NCIS just happened to be
in the neighbourhood with a camera?

I'll have someone
e-mail the video to you.

Excuse me, excuse me.
Sir, restricted crime scene.

- Boss?
- Oh, he's one of yours?

- Oh, yeah.
- Special Agent DiNozzo.

Anthony. Tony.

Detective Sparr.

Ah.

- Detective Sparr, what's it look like?
- Classic.

Rich guy wants to get high,

trolls known area
to buy a recreational drug,

deal goes bad.

Hmm. You think so?

You think otherwise?

Yeah. Guy rolling around
in a $90,000 car

buying drugs
in a neighbourhood like this.

I wouldn't turn the engine off,
let alone get out of the car.

Thanks for your help,
Special Agent Gibbs.

Appreciate the video.

I worked Narcotics,
Baltimore P.D., two years.

Three before I transferred
to Homicide.

- Okay, what do we have, kid?
- That the murder weapon?

When did a pipe become
a drug dealer's weapon of choice?

MAN 1 : Sure?
MAN 2: A couple days.

Business. Well, it's gone.

Hurry, I'm hungry, man.

DUCKY:
Abby?

[CHAIR CREAKING]

Abigail, what are you doing?

I'm trying to change
my spatial orientation.

Help myself get a new perspective.

How is it working?

I think I'm gonna be sick.

You wanted to see me?

Now, you didn't have to make
a special trip,

but when you regain your equilibrium,
I have a John Doe.

I need a CBC with platelets,
and a complete chem. screen, and CK.

Ducky, this John Doe
doesn't have a case number on it.

Oh, yet to be determined.
I'll give it to you later.

My company spent the last ten years
developing that radar system.

You need to release it back
to us now.

Stakeout's our best chance
to catch who was behind the theft.

- It's been two weeks.
- Since the radar was stolen.

It's only been four days

since we got the e-mail tipping us off
to its location.

Haven't you got something
to say, captain?

Have you found out
who sent the e-mail?

- Working on it.
- I thought this nightmare

was over when the radar was found.

I should've never agreed
to let you and the Navy use it as bait.

Why do you have to leave it there?

You can arrest
whoever comes to collect it.

Covert surveillance.

Got in, planted the cameras, got out.

Your point?

It takes time to move the radar.

We might not be the only ones
watching the locker.

CHOW:You know what this is,
Agent Gibbs?

Zumwalt-class destroyer.

Stealth destroyer, Agent Gibbs.
Without its radar, it's useless.

I was supposed to be at that shipyard
today installing that radar.

Instead, I have to stand by
and watch you play policeman.

[DOOR OPENS, CLOSES]

I'd like to help you here, Gibbs.

That ship is due to start sea trials
next month.

It gets delayed,
SECNAV will have my ass.

They'll want a much higher price
than that.

Oh.

Oh, Anthony, you scared me.

Heh-heh.
Is the stakeout over?

I wish.

It's worse than watching
a five-day cricket match.

Careful, young man.

Now, it's late,
you've been working 12-hour shifts,

I would think you'd rather be anywhere
but here on your time off.

You must want something.

Well...

How well do you know the city ME?

Tom Hubbard? I play bridge
with him every Tuesday night.

Excellent medical examiner,
dreadful bridge player.

There was a murder this morning.

Down the street from the stakeout,

and I'd love to get a look
at the autopsy report.

Can't you get one
through normal channels?

I had little difference of opinion
with the homicide detective.

She and I didn't see eye to eye.

She?

Does Gibbs know you're doing this?

Um...
Tony is going to try to get even.

I know he has booby-trapped
something.

[DOOR OPENS]

Boss, hey, I got your message.

- What's wrong?
- A low battery signal from the camera.

That's odd. I used fresh batteries.

Should be good
for at least another week.

Hmm.

Okay, I'll go see what's going on.

[DOOR OPENS]

[DOOR CLOSES]

GIBBS:
McGee, hallway's empty.

McGee, we haven't got all day.

Boss, what do you see
on the monitor?

I see a radar system
on a shipping pallet.

You sure?

We're staring right at it, McGee.

Do you see me?

Can you see me? No.

Boss, we got a problem.

[CAMERA SHUTTER CLICKING]

Camera's working fine, boss.
I don't know why

I would start a sentence with
"I don't know."

Figure it out, McGee. Fast.

[CELL PHONE RINGS]

Yeah?

Whew. Would not want
to be Gibbs right now.

I would not want
to be McGee any time.

[DOOR OPENS]

We are a team.
We need to support each other.

No more practical jokes.

[LAUGHS]
Oh, yeah.

Yeah, sure.

Agreed.

Agreed.

Hmm.

[SPEAKS IN FRENCH]

This is crazy.
I'm taking pictures of an empty room.

How did 90 million dollar's worth
of high tech electronics just vanish?

I saw David Blaine
make an elephant disappear once

in front of hundreds of people.

It's an illusion, Tony.
He's an illusionist.

I can assure you
the elephant never left the building.

We have to open
and check every locker.

We need a warrant.

Warrants. One for each locker.

Or not.

I'll go lean on the manager.

[BEEPS, CHIRPS]

Sorry, Special Agent Gibbs.

I was told the captain was coming on
15 minutes ago.

I'm being punished, Sandy.

Sorry, Gibbs.
SECNA V wouldn't let me go.

Wants to know whose bright idea
it was to use top-secret radar as bait.

- That'd be Gibbs. Two Bs.
- Yeah, he knows.

Look, he's trying to track down
your director.

Her office says
she's out of the country.

She is.

Well, DNl is concerned the technology
may be in the wrong hands.

And Chow's hysterical.
I guess I don't need to tell you that.

He says it'll take nine months
to remanufacture.

Have the sea trials been delayed?

Not officially,
but you've read the press releases.

The Zumwalt-class
multimission destroyer

is being touted
as the future of the blue-water navy

and SECNA V is not ready
to go public,

especially if the technology's
been compromised.

I wish I could help you, Gibbs.

[GRUNTS]

[CHUCKLES]

- You got it.
- At great personal expense, I fear.

I agreed to be Tom Hubbard's
bridge partner

at a tournament next month.

A weekend in hell.

- You want the highlights?
- Yes, please.

Cause of death, blunt-force trauma.
He was not a healthy man.

Mr. Rowe
had quadruple bypass surgery

before his 40th birthday.

- Was he an addict?
- Oh, most definitely.

He appears to have been addicted
to fatty red meats,

fried foods and eggs.

His cholesterol was 388.

- Drugs?
- No. Not even an aspirin.

Which he should've been taking
on a daily regimen for his condition.

Thanks, Ducky. I owe you.

And one day, dear boy,
I shall collect.

Cover for me. I gotta run an errand.

- Tony's playing with fire.
- Yeah. That's what I told him.

Oh, time for me to exit stage left.

We checked the storage facility
from bottom to top.

Radar's not in the building.

- Where's DiNozzo?
- Uh... Uh...

He's running an errand.

Never cover for me, David.

Boss, finally managed
to trace that e-mail.

It was transmitted from a cell phone

using a Wi-Fi network
in the Dupont Circle area.

- Who?
- I don't have a name yet,

but I do have the electronic
serial number of the device.

Cell provider's gonna get back to me
with the name of the owner.

Bring him in.

SPARR: This is the guy we've been
looking for. Have you seen him?

Let's see. No.

All right. Will you call me
if you remember anything?

GOLDILOCKS:
Sure. I'll call you.

Any good tips? On the case?

You're here
because I didn't return your call.

TONY:
That would've been nice. Yeah.

I'm in the middle of an investigation,
I don't return social calls.

What makes you think it was social?

The way you stared
at my ass the other day.

How do you know my interest
in your ass wasn't purely professional?

- I have dealt with your type all my life.
- Really? What is my type?

Not my type.

Rules don't apply to you,
can't imagine a woman

wouldn't hang on your every word.

Have you always lacked
self-esteem?

I've got a murder to solve.

Haven't you got a drunk sailor
to find?

Try me again in a couple of months.

You do have a nice ass,

but it wasn't a social call,
it was business.

Scott Rowe
wasn't murdered in a drug deal.

He wasn't a user,
there were no drugs in his system.

How do you know that?

Autopsy report.

I haven't seen it.

You went around me.

Well, if you'd let me help,
I wouldn't have to do that.

Hey.

- I have a gut feeling about this case.
- Why?

- Why do I have a gut feeling?
- Why do you wanna help?

Because I feel responsible.

I could've stopped it.
I saw what was going down.

I thought it was just a drug deal,
just like you, and it wasn't. Trust me.

My instincts are usually right.

You don't do anything
without telling me.

Absolutely.

Any leads?

No prints on the murder weapon.

We enhanced your video,

got a decent image
of the drug dealer's face.

ID'd him as Dennis Moran.
Multiple arrests, most drug-related.

Convicted twice.
We're looking for him.

What about Scott Rowe?

He's a hard guy to figure.

Was a stockbroker, lost his licence,
a couple civil lawsuits against him.

[CELL PHONE RINGS]

Shady deals.

Rowe's had a history
of financial ups and downs.

Currently down.

Excuse me.

Yeah? Yeah.

[TONY SPEAKING INDISTINCTLY]

TONY:
Yeah.

[DOOR CLOSES]

I thought you said you found
the anonymous tipster.

I did. Name's Jordyn Wright.

The e-mail was sent
from her cell phone.

GIRL: Mom, how much longer
do we need to wait here?

MOM:
I don't know, honey.

What, she couldn't get a sitter?

Jordyn's the girl, not the mother.

[DOOR OPENS]

[DOOR CLOSES]

Special Agent Gibbs.

Can you please tell me
what this is about?

Told him I didn't
send you any e-mail.

NCIS received a message
from this phone.

Not from me.
Now, can I have it back, please?

Did you let somebody borrow it?

Not allowed to.

Where were you last Thursday night,
Jordyn, about 7:30?

It was a school night.
She was home.

You were in the Dupont Circle area,
weren't you?

[CHUCKLES]
No.

- Okay, so I was in Rock n' Java.
- What?

See?
Like you and Dad even noticed.

MOM:Who were you with?
You weren't with that boy were you?

Nicky, Mom. Nicky Ramone.

And he's not a boy, he's 17.

- Exactly why you can't see him.
- You can't choose my friends.

Mrs. Wright, deal with this later.

You let someone borrow it?

Some guy at the next table
couldn't get a signal.

Gave me 10 bucks to use mine.

Would you recognise him?

I guess.

ZIVA: You're supposed to be
working on our case, Tony.

Our murder victim was a loser
and a fraud.

Not our murder victim, Tony.

Declared bankruptcy twice.
Beemer leased for 1,200 a month.

He was three months behind
on payments.

Does Metro Homicide
know what you're doing?

Detective Sparr and I
have an understanding.

[CHUCKLES]

I'll bet you do.

- Detective Sparr must be hot.
- Yes.

But, no,
for the moment it's all business.

- Hmm. Business.
- Business.

Abby. You're gonna love her.

She's gonna do a computer sketch
of this guy, okay?

Is this some kind of test?

You already know
who borrowed my cell phone.

MOM: Who, Jordyn?
- Him.

Are you sure, Jordyn?

He gave me 10 bucks. I'm sure.

Are we missing something?

Yeah, our anonymous tipster
was Scott Rowe, our dead guy.

Ooh!

- McGee.
- Did you lose something?

Tony still has not gotten me back
for the binoculars.

I thought you two shook on it,
no more practical jokes.

[LAUGHS]

Do you trust DiNozzo?

Point well taken. Where is he?

The homicide detective
from Metro's here.

He's escorting her up.

Say one for me
while you're down there, McGee.

Working on a theory, boss,

how someone could've stolen
the radar without us seeing.

- Yeah? Tell.
McGEE:I would rather show it to you.

So I'm gonna set up a demonstration
out in the evidence garage.

So our cases have crossed.

Means you can tell me why NCIS
was staking out the neighbourhood.

Classified Navy equipment
was hijacked,

got an anonymous tip it was
in the storage building next to the alley

where Rowe was killed.

Just learned Rowe is the tipster.

Still conducting the stakeout?

No.

No, the equipment was stolen.

Again.

- Messy.
- Ziva David.

You dragged me up here

to pull the national security
need-to-know card?

That Rowe's murder
is no longer a Metro case?

No, we investigate
the murder together.

The theft stays classified.

Do I have a choice?

No.

[SIGHS]

- Um...
- Yeah. Don't ask.

Hey, sorry. Sorry.

What'd you say
your name was again?

[TYPING]

Jardine.

Four people in my department
have come down with the flu.

You're in my department now.

Yes, sir.

What do you got?

It's just a little tickle
at the back of my throat.

Oh, I did not pick up any chatter
on the stolen dual-band radar.

Talked with contacts
at the NSA and CIA.

They're alerted.

- Where are we going?
- Interview.

Don't talk. Just listen.

Do you know him?

Scott Rowe.

Means nothing.

Who is he?

He's the man
who tipped us off to the radar.

Well, is he cooperating?

No, he's dead.

Murdered.

Okay, this just gets worse.

You people have lost cutting-edge,
dual-band technology.

In hands of a foreign government,

it would be the biggest threat
to national security.

If they figure out how this thing works,
they can jam it.

You're the analyst.
Has Intel picked up anything?

- If we get a lead, we'll let you know.
- My company's ruined.

We worked day and night to meet
that original delivery schedule.

By the time
we could remanufacture?

We'd lose the contract.

[DOOR OPENS, CLOSES]

[ELEVATOR BELL DINGS]

- Hey, McGee.
- Hey.

What are you doing?

- It's a model.
- That is really cool.

McGEE:
Demonstration for Gibbs.

You know how hard it is
to explain technical stuff to him.

Yeah, good thinking.

Like every time I try to explain
something sciency

and his eyes glaze over
and he gives me

that "will you shut up
and get to the point" look.

He's behind me, isn't he?

No.

Wanna see a dress rehearsal?

- Can I be Gibbs?
- Yes.

Okay, boss. Boss.

This is the hallway.

This is the locker.
These are surveillance cameras.

If I could direct your attention,
these monitors here,

these are the feed
from the surveillance cameras.

I'm working under the assumption

that whoever stole the radar
knew we were watching.

Okay.

Using a scanner,
they found our video frequencies.

- Had to be nearby, McGee?
- That is an excellent question, boss.

Yes. With our minitransmitters,
they would have to be within 500 feet.

Then, they could steal
and record the video signals

which I have already done,

and play them back with these
much more powerful transmitters.

They would've overridden
our signals.

Now, they would need the pallet jack
to get the radar out.

- McGee, I don't see the guy.
- That is because

you're watching the loop
I made of the empty hallway.

Just as we were doing
during the stakeout.

When they were gone,

they turned off the loop
in the hallway,

and continued transmitting
the second loop

showing the radar
still in the storage locker.

McGee, this is so great.

Even Gibbs could understand this.

GIBBS:
Oh, he does.

Not off the hook
until the radar's found, McGee.

[DOOR SLIDES OPEN]

Mr. Palmer,
I thought you'd gone for the night.

I made it halfway home before
I realised I left my cell phone here.

What are you working on?
Is there anything I can help you?

No, no, no. It's an old case.

Just popped into mind.
I thought I'd check a few things.

- I'll take that to the file room for you.
- No, no, no. I'll take care of it.

NIKKl: I've worked
all the usual channels. Nothing.

GIBBS: You thought it was important
to come up here and tell me that?

Well, that's the point.

If top-secret electronics
were out there

for sale or in the hands
of a foreign operative,

we would've picked up
something by now.

I think the silence speaks volumes.

What's it saying?

It suggests a domestic operation
if it's not out there for sale.

[CELL PHONE RINGS]

A competitor
of Jonathan Chow's company.

Yeah, Gibbs.

Mind if I ask what that is?

According to McGee,
he's the guy who stole the radar.

- Um... Ziva?
- Huh?

I don't know
if I should say anything or not,

but I saw Tony
putting something under your car.

What? When?

What, I don't know.
When, this morning.

Huh. I told you.
I told you he could not be trusted.

Was Tony
really messing with her car?

No.

Tony just told me to tell Ziva that
when I saw her.

ABBY:Scott Rowe's prints were lifted
postmortem by the ME.

This is the unidentified partial
from the storage rental agreement.

[CELL PHONE RINGING]

It matches Scott Rowe's
left index finger.

SPARR: Detective Sparr.
- Rowe rented the locker?

- Probably hijacked the radar.
SPARR: Right.

Then tipped us off where to find it?
Doesn't make any sense.

Our missing pusher, Dennis Moran,
he's been spotted downtown.

[TYRES SQUEALING]

Hey, thanks for the call.
Where is he?

Went into the hotel acting real hinky.
There's a reward, right?

Yes. You get him.

I remember you. The biter.

You stay here. Come with me.
McGee, take the perimeter.

[LADDER CLANGING]

TONY:
NCIS, freeze.

Hey. Hold it.

Hey.

All right, just get away. Get away.

Federal agents.
We just wanna talk, Dennis.

No. I'm not going back to prison.

- We just wanna talk.
- I know you--

I know you think I killed that guy.
I didn't, okay?

I didn't.

Then why'd you run, Dennis?

[CRIES]

I'm on probation.

I get convicted again, and it's over.

- That's not gonna happen.
TONY: Dennis.

DENNIS:
It's not gonna happen.

Dennis.
Dennis, you don't wanna do this.

Don't make us do this, Dennis.

Put the gun down. Dennis.

[GRUNTING AND YELLING]

Oh, God. Stop it.

I didn't kill anybody. I swear I didn't.

I didn't kill anybody, I swear.

[DENNIS WAILING]

I swear I didn't do it.

What were you doing with Rowe?

- Who?
- Dead guy in the alley.

I told you. I didn't kill him.

You want me
to start believing you, Dennis.

You better start remembering things.

I know, I'm trying.

Gibbs always throw softballs?

I've seen him make
a 300-pound drill instructor cry.

GIBBS:How long did you know him?
DENNIS: I didn't.

The guy showed up
a couple of days ago.

Paid me two bills to watch a building.

- The storage facility?
- Yeah.

He told me he'd give me a number
to call him when the feds came.

They came for what?

I don't know. He was crazy.

He says the place
was gonna get raided.

I never saw nothing.

Who hit him with the pipe?

[GULPS]

DENNIS:I don't know who killed--
Who hit him.

You were there.

I was loaded, man.

Look, the BMW dude
was hassling me for not calling.

We went into the alley...

Another guy was there.
He saw him...

He went crazy. Picked up the pipe
and started hitting him.

I got the hell out.

Can you describe the other guy?

I was so whacked, man.

He couldn't pick
his own mother out of a lineup.

- You believe this junkie?
- He had a gun. Why use a pipe?

Escort him back down
to sickbay lockup.

I have a better idea.
I take him downtown.

Civilian Vic, civilian suspect
on a Metro street.

- Not yet.
- Why?

National security?

Works for me.

ZIVA:
Great, lunch.

I'm starving.

There's an extra burger in there
if you want.

Oh, no thanks.
I don't eat food prepared by others.

Of course you don't.

- Did you come up with anything?
- Nothing. No connection.

Oh, by the way, who do I owe?

- Tony.
- Tony?

- Where is he?
- Interrogation.

Hah!

[LAUGHS]

Does he think I'm that stupid?

- Come on.
- Would Tony really do something

- to your food?
- Oh, yeah.

Boss, we went through Scott Rowe's

bank statements
and brokerage accounts.

He sold 50,000 shares of IRT,
Jonathan Chow's company, short.

He was betting the stock would fall.

- Why?
McGEE: Don't know.

Settlement date's this Friday.

Hard to make a killing on the market
when you're dead.

- Insider information.
- We're checking for a connection

between Rowe,
Chow or anyone at IRT.

SECNAV wants a briefing.
You stay on it.

PULLMAN: Gibbs.
SECNAV will be on in ten minutes.

It could've been anyone
who knew about the theft,

including Captain Pullman.

You ready, Dr. Mallard?

As ready as I ever will be.

We've put this bloody business off
long enough.

They don't prepare you
for all this in medical school.

Well, let's get it over with.

Where shall we start?

Latex gloves.

Good Lord,
did we really get through that many?

Requisition forms.

I did mine last week.

- Don't gloat.
- Okay. All business.

I got the blood work you wanted
on the John Doe.

The white-blood-cell count
was normal,

but there was a high level
of the enzyme creatine kinase.

Uh--

I didn't realise how late it was.

Let's put all that off until tomorrow,
Mr. Palmer, when we're both fresh.

- I guess one more day won't matter.
- Yes. Well, thank you, Abigail.

I'll see you in the morning.

[DOOR CLOSES]

- What's going on?
- I don't know.

He asked me to run blood tests
on a John Doe.

Abby, we don't have any John Does.

SPARR:
So low.

- Obviously, you don't--
TONY: I--

[TONY CHUCKLES]

No.

- Sleep through your alarm, Tony?
- I wish.

Morning, boss. Morning, McProbius.

Well, we got the dirt on Rowe.

Whoever killed him
done him a favour.

SPARR: He was gonna file for
bankruptcy. We met with his attorney.

Also interviewed the broker
who placed the short sale of IRT stock.

- Says he tried to talk Rowe out of it.
SPARR: Pretty sure the broker's clean.

We caught him off-guard
jogging in Rock Creek Park.

At 6:15 this morning.

It was good
old-fashioned legwork, Ziva.

It usually solves crimes.

Well, sometimes
computers do help, Tony.

I wrote a programme
to cross-check credit card charges,

ran Scott Rowe's against
corporate cards issued to IRT execs,

Iimited my search parameters

to the last six months
under the assumption--

- McGee.
- Sorry, boss.

Just got a hit.

Five weeks ago, Scott Rowe's
and Jonathan Chow's credit cards

were swiped at the same Georgetown
bar within minutes of each other.

Both were also waited on
by the same server.

Suggests they sat
next to each other.

Huh. Maybe that's how they met.

It's like the Hitchcock classic
Strangers on a Train.

Two men
who don't know each other,

meet by chance
to hatch a nefarious crime.

Chow's a Caltech graduate.

It would've been a piece of cake
to block and override our signal.

- Chow denied knowing Rowe.
- Rowe's dead, he can't talk.

The fact that two guys
had a drink at a bar at the same time

doesn't really prove anything.

Get Moran in here.

He couldn't ID anybody.

And even if he did,
he's not a reliable witness.

Agreed.

[PARAMORE'S "CRUSH CRUSH
CRUSH" PLAYING OVER STEREO]

Are you the guy that called me?

Sit down.

You were kind of cryptic
on the phone.

Sit down.

I don't think
you want me talking too loud.

Look, I think you're mistaking me
for someone else.

I know exactly who you are.

I saw you hit Rowe with a pipe.

[CHUCKLES]

What are you talking about?

He told me he met you here
five weeks ago.

[SNIFFS]

What do you want?

How much, is the question.

Sit down.

I know about your arrangement.

How much do you want?

Fifty thou.

[CHUCKLES]

How do I know you're not gonna
double-cross me like Rowe did?

Is that why you killed him?

It's not.

It's gonna take me a little while
to come up with the money.

Got till tomorrow.

You've got a lot of explaining to do.

It's too bad you couldn't block
this transmission.

GIBBS:
He's all yours.

You're under arrest
for the murder of Scott Rowe.

[HANDCUFFS CLICKING]

You have the right to remain silent.

Anything you say can and will be used
against you in a court of law.

You think this'll help me out
with the judge?

I think you did great.

Jonathan Chow
had his own radar system stolen?

- Why?
- It didn't work.

There was a fatal glitch in the software
that controlled the radar.

As a result, the programming
for all the integrated

multifunction peripheral components
had to be rewritten.

It would've taken m-- Months.

- Where's the radar now?
TONY: Back of a truck.

Chow left it in long-term parking
at Reagan National.

Well, I guess it's not gonna do
the Navy much good if it doesn't work.

Nope.

Rowe would've made a fortune

when the Navy discovered
the radar didn't work.

A lot more than Chow paid him
to steal it in the first place.

Rowe tips us off, Chow freaks,
steals the radar back, kills Rowe.

Not our finest moment.

If I never go on a stakeout again,
it will be too soon.

Oh!

[TYPING]

PALMER: Should I prep now?
- No time like the present.

I'll get changed.

Ah. A new arrival.

Two-pack-a-day gunny died
of a suspected heart attack last night.

They're not all murders, Jethro.

Hey, Palmer. Abby's looking for you.

I just left her.

I will go see her again.

Is something wrong?

Well, you tell me.

I thought we didn't keep secrets
from each other.

Oh, you're referring
to the blood tests

I asked Abby to run on the
nonexistent John Doe. Heh-heh.

I guess I shouldn't be surprised.
She goes to you with everything.

She cares about you
and she's worried.

About me?

You were running the tests
on yourself.

No, I am not self-diagnosing.

You know, Abby allows her emotions
to cloud her judgement.

She jumps to a conclusion.

No, I'm in excellent health
for a man of my age.

And if she'd bothered
to check further,

she would've realised
that it's not my blood type.

Who?

[SIGHS]

You're putting me
in a very difficult position, Jethro.

I can't think of anybody
you'd stick your neck out like that for.

Except Director Shepard.

Our Jenny?
