Quotes
-
Donald Mallard : Does Gibbs suspect foul play?
Jack Sloane : Does he ever not?
Donald Mallard : Ah, good point.
-
Jack Sloane : We're really gonna miss you around here, Duck.
Timothy McGee : I still can't believe it's your last day.
Donald Mallard : I prefer to think of it as the first day of the rest of my life.
Nick Torres : What happens on the second day?
Donald Mallard : Stay tuned.
-
Timothy McGee : You do know that you need money to live on once you stop working, right?
Nick Torres : Look, man, I-I've been saving, okay? But I-I'm saving like a normal person. Like, a little bit here and there, you know? I haven't been saving since I was potty-trained. But just out of curiosity, what-what do you guys think? How... how much you think is, uh, is enough?
Timothy McGee : Well, it depends on your plans. I mean, maybe you want to travel, or, uh, do a vacation home. Either way, you're gonna need a lot of money.
Nick Torres : [showing McGee his phone] Do you think... do you think this is enough?
Donald Mallard : [seeing Tim's face] Oh, dear. That bad?
Timothy McGee : How have you saved that much cash?
Donald Mallard : Or perhaps that good?
Timothy McGee : Wha... I don't have anywhere near that amount.
-
Nick Torres : Tim, you're gonna be fine, man.
Timothy McGee : Yeah, not compared to you. You've got no kids and a small fortune. I've got two kids and a wife. I'm gonna be working for the rest of my life.
Jimmy Palmer : Well, the good news is you love your job, right?
Donald Mallard : I've always loved mine.
Timothy McGee : Well, no offense, Ducky, but if I'm still working when I'm your age...
[he laughs until he sees Ducky's look; Jimmy snickers to himself]
Timothy McGee : I'm not gonna finish that sentence. Ducky, you look fantastic.
Donald Mallard : Good move.
-
Jimmy Palmer : Sorry I'm so busy, Dr. Mallard. The timing on this couldn't have been worse.
Donald Mallard : Dr. Palmer...
Jimmy Palmer : I know, I know. I said I'd stop apologizing.
Donald Mallard : Well, then stop.
Jimmy Palmer : I-It's just that I had a-a speech planned, and there was a-a slideshow in Kasie's lab. Oh, and cookies.
Donald Mallard : Yeah, well, this three-page letter and all these parting gifts, it's more than sufficient. And I'm leaving NCIS, not the planet.
