- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: All you care about is selling the war.
- Ray Vincent: You don't support the war?
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: I support the men fighting it.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: [about Ziva hitting his abdomen] Do it.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: As hard as she can?
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: As hard as you can.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: You know that's how Houdini died.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Ziva, did you kill Houdini?
- Officer Ziva David: It is possible. I do not remember all of their names.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: All right, listen up people. Our fugitive has been on the run for 90 minutes.
- Officer Ziva David: It has been three hours, Tony.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Average foot speed over uneven ground, barring injuries, is four miles per hour.
- Officer Ziva David: He is not on foot. He's in a car.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: What I need from each and every one of you is a hard target search of every gas station, residence, warehouse, farm house, outhouse, hen house, and dog house in the area. Our fugitive has a name and it is...
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Corporal Damon Werth.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: The Tommy Lee Jones speech *every* time we have a fugitive, really?
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Wow.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: What? No funny movie reference?
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: It's not funny.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: [Throws handcuff keys on table] You got yourself in a mess, Corporal. Gonna have to get yourself out of it. What seems to be the problem?
- [Yells next to Werth's ear]
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: WHAT SEEMS TO BE THE PROBLEM, MARINE?
- Damon Werth: I wanna kill someone, sir!
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: [Quietly] Anyone in particular?
- Damon Werth: Anyone will do, sir.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Does that feel right to you, son?
- Damon Werth: No, sir. It does not.
- Officer Ziva David: I felt overwhelmed temporarily, which does not often happen to me, when we were wrestling with Werth.
- [Tony and McGee exchange looks]
- Officer Ziva David: What? What is this look?
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: Nothing.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: You like him.
- Officer Ziva David: I thought he was powerful.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: You really like him.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Who are you having feelings about? You just said you were having feelings.
- Officer Ziva David: I said that I *have* feelings. Not that I'm *having* feelings.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: That is a pretty sophisticated grammatical differentiation.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Don't change the subject with your big words, McNerd.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: [makes a lot of grunting noises] Ok, do it!
- [winces in preparation]
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: [entering the room] Escaped mental patient.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: That's exactly what I'm thinking.
- Ray Vincent: This could be a potential PR disaster.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: [sarcastically] That's always my primary concern.
- [Ziva stabs a can to open it for McGee whose shoulder was dislocated]
- Officer Ziva David: Straw?
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: No, I'm good. I got the one arm. Thank you.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Maybe it was you, McGee. The one armed man. Thought it was one of those vets we met at the Walter Reed Hospital.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: Wrong case, Tony.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Do we even have a case? We already got the guy. What are we doing? What did we miss? What's happening?
- [Ziva looks confusedly at McGee]
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: They gave him pain killers.
- Officer Ziva David: Oh.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: My fingers are fing-ing.
- [elevator dings]
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Ooo!
- Abby Sciuto: Tony, I'm so glad you -
- [pulls back]
- Abby Sciuto: smell like garbage.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Yeah.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: [to Ziva about Werth] Itching for a rematch?
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Wanna roll around on the ground with him some more?
- Karen Sutherland: You could have just asked nicely.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: This *is* nicely.
- Ray Vincent: [noticing Gibbs enter while talking on the phone with his boss] Oh, no. Uh, nothing, sir. I'm losing you. Sunspots, x-rays, tunnel.
- Abby Sciuto: [Coming towards Ziva's desk] Ohmygod, ohmygod, ohmygod, ohmygod, ohmygod, ohmygod...
- Officer Ziva David: [Ziva stands. A bruise covers her right eye] Abby...
- Abby Sciuto: Ohmygod, ohmygod, ohmygod...
- Officer Ziva David: ABBY!
- [Shoves her into a chair]
- Officer Ziva David: Calm down! Tony has a broken nose, McGee has a dislocated shoulder but: we caught the guy.
- Abby Sciuto: What is he even doing here? He should be locked up! He's an animal!
- Officer Ziva David: [Looks shocked] He's not an animal. He a MAN.
- Abby Sciuto: Are you defending him? He attacked for no reason, the guy's a killing machine...
- Officer Ziva David: He's a Marine. Who was willing to to give up everything for his country. We have a responsibility to him!
- Abby Sciuto: Oh, spare me the Samurai code of honor. Noble respect for your combatant? It's admirable but he tried to kill Tony and he tried to kill McGee. Ohmygod, ohmygod, ohmygod...
- Officer Ziva David: [Grabs her] And me too. Believe me, we are fine. Calm down.
- Abby Sciuto: [Stops for a second] Ziva, can't you just let me get it out? For a second? I meant I'm not like you, I'm not like some totally emotionless perfect warrior.
- [Leaves, Ziva looks crestfallen]
- Chris Jenkins: You're done in here, already.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Yeah, don't need to look in the one place we know he isn't.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: When you're dealing with someone on the run, you need to be able to climb inside his head. Think his thoughts. What would he do? Where would he go?
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: Did a one armed man kill his wife?
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Would he dress up like a clown and join a traveling circus, like Jimmy Stewart in "The Greatest Show On Earth"?
- Officer Ziva David: Do any of your ideas come from reality?
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Sure. Just not your reality.
- Abby Sciuto: These people have read way too many sci-fi comics.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: Some of these experiments are more fi than sci. One of them makes people glow in the dark.
- Officer Ziva David: I want to see him.
- Navy Capt. Dr. Adrian De La Casa: [shakes his head] He's under heavy sedation. He's fine.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: She asked to see the patient.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: Probably not a good idea to stand in her way.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Been working on my six pack, you know, abs.
- Officer Ziva David: You and Abby have been drinking?
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: No, abdominals. No more beer gut for me. I've been training hardcore. Hitting the core hard. Carved. Hard as wood.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: To match your head.
- [at the Biotech Corporation R&D lab]
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: [in a Sean Connery accent] I feel like James Bond walking into Q's laboratory.
- [Werth is going into cardiac arrest, De La Casa administers a shot of adrenaline]
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: [alarmed] They're pulling a Pulp Fiction...
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: ...on the Hulk!
- [Abby is angry at Werth for injuring Tony, Ziva and McGee]
- Abby Sciuto: I can't just turn off one part of my brain and turn on the other part!
- Donald Mallard: Abby...
- Abby Sciuto: [one of her machines beeps with test results] You know what? I don't even care.
- Donald Mallard: Abby, I need you to draw upon that considerable capacity that you have for empathy, for a moment.
- Abby Sciuto: I don't want to help him.
- Donald Mallard: This young man you deem to be a villain, may in fact be a victim.
- [Abby mulls that for a few moments, then slowly smiles]
- Abby Sciuto: ...What are we looking for?
