[car engine starts]

Hey!

Get a room!

Sorry!

Jerk!

My hero.

We should get back
to the party.

Yeah, okay.

[chuckles]

So, how long
have we been gone?

Um, I don't know.
Time kind of stopped.

Are you being serious?

Totally. My sincerity

and sarcasm sound
shockingly similar.

Oh!
[chuckles]

That's what it takes?

I've been trying to get a laugh
out of you all night.

So, uh, that's what you've been
going for, huh?

Yeah. What is this?

Motor oil?

I think this
car's leaking.

Let me turn it on. Okay.

It's not oil.

Jason, what is it?

REPORTER:
Big cutbacks in federal spending
is the hot topic

on Capitol Hill this week,

with legislators vowing to trim
the federal budget

While spending and staffing
cutbacks are likely

at many federal agencies...

McGee, I was watching that!

Not anymore.
Time to hit the showers.

Is your shower not working?

Why, do I smell?

I cannot smell you from there.

And you're part bloodhound.

Come closer.

[sniffs]

The answer is Drakkar Noir,
vintage 1988.

He buys it
off e-Bay.

Never forget your first love.

You smell fine, McGee.

Thank you, Ziva.

Like lilacs.

A masculine lilac, I'm sure.

The kind that storms beachheads,

likes bloody steaks
and smacks girls' bottoms.

McGee's shower's broken.

No, it's not.

They said it was late
and it's time to...

...hit the showers.

Yeah.

Oh! It's an expression!

Ah. But hitting things
does fix things.

Only according to Gibbs,
the Fonz

and the far-too short-lived

Stephen J. Cannell classic
Riptide.

[sniffs]
Did you shower today?

No.
You should.

I shower
three times a week
like Brad Pitt.

Preserves my
natural aroma.

Boy, Director Vance
wasn't kidding

about making changes.

ZIVA:
We are gonna lose some people.

We already have.

NCIS investigative assistant

found dead in the garage.

Good, you got your gear.
Come on. Let's go.

Somebody stinks.

McGEE: Leo's bagged
the guy's personal effects.

Temporary NCIS I.D. says
"Oliver Froman."

Procurement Fraud Division hire.

Hired a few months ago.
Just let go.

Is Terry Thomas still supervisor
at the Fraud Squad?

Uh-huh. That'll be
a fun interview, huh?

No surveillance cameras,
no line of sight

from adjacent buildings.

Ducky, can we move
the body yet?

No, no yet.

Mr. Palmer,
I know local law
enforcementmanaged

to reach the
man's pockets,

but we can wait.

Almost got it.

I've got the liver probe
and, uh...

Oh, yeah,

I'm stuck.

[sighs]

Agent McGee, how soon

can we move
this poor fellow's car?

[grunting]

Um, this is not his car.

Don't rush on my account!
I'm fine, I'm fine!

[sighs]

I'm fine.I'll get the jack.

Thank you! [grunts]

So exactly what happened?

Um, well, we were at
Paul's birthday party

at the, uh,
at the pizza place.

And me and Lauren
took a step outside

to get some
fresh air.

And she's making fun
of me 'cause I watch
Victorious

on Nickelodeon.

But Victoria Justice is hot,
right?

So I said that.

She got this
crinkly face.

Then I said,
"But not as hot as you."

And then she smiled,
and I planted one
on her.

And, uh, and there was tongue.

About the body, kid?

Oh, her, her body was slamming.

The dead body?

Uh, yeah, that kind of sucked
because it was my first kiss.

They get better.

JIMMY:
Well, usually in the morning,
always after work.

Then sometimes in the afternoon,

depending on
what we're working on.

I don't know.
I guess I'd say I shower

about 18, 19
times a week.

Surprised you have
any skin left.

[chuckles]
What do you say, Doctor?

I'd say the cause of death
is likely massive blood loss

from multiple stab wounds
to the abdomen,

and the time of death,
roughly two hours ago.

Corresponds
with the gate ticket.

Time-stamped at 7:55 p.m.

So he diddrive in.

ZIVA:
Just not in this car.

Let's go hunting, McGee.

What about you, David?

When do you feel like showering?

After just about any
conversation with you, Tony.

[chuckles]

I used to shower
in the mornings,

but when I'd leave
the house with wet hair

and it was cold outside,
I'd get a stiff neck.

Apparently, that's not
just an old wive's tale.

Then I started
blow-drying,

but Tony would notice
I was using a hair dryer,

and he wouldn't let me
hear the end of it.

Of course...

That was the
end of it.

[keyless entry remote chirps]

Looks like he
packed everything
he owns in here.

Froman was on the move.

He lost his job
and he hit the road.

Yeah, with all
his meager possessions.

Well, these aren't his.

These are NCIS
property tags.

All this stuff
was seized.

This guy was looting
the office.

[stuttering]:
Froman was last hired,
so f-first fired.

It wasn't personal.

Bet it felt
personal to him.

Every department's g-getting
sh-shaved back.

You know, h-he was one
of the first temporary hires.

He knew that, b-but nobody
liked b-being let go.

It's a horrible feeling.

You have been
through it yourself?

I was a c-c-customer
service r-rep.

I answered phones
b-before NCIS.

Wow. And they fired you?

Yeah.
W-With no explanation.

Gibbs, Terry Thomas.

He was, uh, Froman's boss.

Got Froman's computer.
Hard drive's been wiped.

But I'm gonna take it
downstairs,

see what kind of
security breach
Froman might be.

He had a-a-access

to a-active cases

we were in the p-process,

-pprocess
of p-prosecuting.

Notice?

G-Gave him two weeks.

He picked up
his final paycheck Friday.

He was just supposed
to be a temp.

McGEE: But one case
was lingering.

B-B-Big case.

Lot of seized property.

P-Prepping for auction.

Who?

Leona Phelps.

Go.

[scoffs] You know, h-he'd be
terrible at customer service.

TONY:
Liver?

Spleen.
Of course.

Interest?

Psycho.

Aren't they all?

The movie, Palmer.

Disgruntled employee

steals from the office
on the way out of town.

Stops for a little
while and winds up dead

just like Marian Crane
in Psycho.

Spoiler alert, okay?
Haven't seen it.

You've had 50 years to catch up
on the story of Norman Bates.

The character inspired
by the exploits

of the Wisconsin cannibal
Ed Gein.

Yeah, that's
right, Duckman.

The unassuming Gein
was known

to give gifts

to his neighbors
of smoked venison

that he prepared himself.

When the authorities
finally tracked him down,

they found his smokehouse
filled with human body parts.

Gein was said
to have remarked,

"I never killed a deer
in my life."

Oh! That's gross!

Kidney?

Liver.

And this is perforated

in an upward direction.

The killer is
likely right-handed.

13 stab wounds in total.

And judging by the angle
of the incision,

he or she knows how
to handle a blade.

He didn't used amateurish
downward stabs

like the fictional Bates
in the shower scene...

Hey-hey-hey!
Whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa-whoa!

That short knife,
narrow blade.

...but repeated, rapid,
upward thrusts.

[knocking]

Yep.

You knocked.

Trying to stay on
your good side.

What, is that so hard?

Well, has been lately.

You have an update
on the assistant?

He helped himself to property

he was supposed
to be processing,

including Leona Phelps.

Leona Phelps is considered
the Madoff of the Navy.

She ran the National Armed
Forces Credit Union

till she segued
to the private sector.

She built what
basically turned out

to be a financial house
of cards.

NCIS took her down
last year.

Yeah, minimum sentence
at a country club.

The least of the charges.

She's left behind a trail
of broken lives,

but so far, none of the billions

that she was responsible
for investing.

She's appealing
her conviction.

Nothing disrupts
that prosecution, Gibbs.

What about the scene?

Time stamp says he pulled in

20 minutes before.
Parked,

he walked down two levels.

He got slashed deeper
than your budget there.

Duck said
lividity shows that

he was dead before he was
stuffed underneath the car.

Do you think this could be a
case of wrong place, wrong time?

I'll let you know.

Leon, any of these personal
decisions affect my team?

I'll let you know.

Hear me now?

Sorry. Had to drop you
at Security.

No, I'm at the Home Office.

It looks exactly
the same, actually...

TONY:
Maybe our dead guy was
running from something,

maybe he was running
to something.

But if the guy was leaving
town, then where was he going?

Closest family members

are cousins on
his mother's side.

They live in
Topeka, Kansas.

You don't go

see family after
losing your job

and pulling the plug on
your big city adventure.

[laughs]

Working for NCIS is
a "big-city adventure"?

I'll find someplace
to stay.

As long as it's comfortable.

Where do you go?

Open road?

With a trunkful of stolen goods.

TONY:
Friend's place, then.

ZIVA:
I pulled phone logs
from his office

and his personal cell. Nothing.
He would call ahead.

Not if you want
to surprise them.

BARRETT:
All right, call me later.
You, too.

TONY:
What kind of friends?
They have a criminal record?

You can't have a criminal record
and work for us.

And you.

Work for us?

For NCIS? E.J. Barrett.

Tony DiNozzo.

Ziva David.

Uh, you work in this office?

I think this is
my desk right here.

Hey, let me ask you:

does the glare from
that skylight bug you?

'Cause it's a lot
of light, and...

[drawer slams]

Is this thing bolted?

[drawer slams again]

I want my desk this way,
which would...

You know, how about if we,
uh... we go ask

Abby and McGee if they
want to track down...

Let's take
the stairs.

[muttering]

Come on. Let's get some air.

It's leather, McGee.
It's leather fiber.

Leather is skin.

I try not to
think about that.

It's flesh.

It's tanned,
stretched, processed,

dyed, dead flesh.

You're making it hard
not to think about.

ABBY:
You know, there's a wide range
of leathers

other than your typical
moo-based ones.

There's pig leather,
and there's sheep leather,

and there's goat leather.

And then there's chamois,
and your high-end exotics,

like lizard and ostrich

and hippo...

Aw... hippo.

Abby. Do you want me
to stop digging through

Froman's computer and
pay attention to you?
Please.

Okay. I'm trying to
isolate the DNA

from the fibers Ziva collected
underneath the car.

Why would you want to get
the DNA of that fiber?

There were no fingerprints
at the crime scene, McGee.

There were no fingerprints
on the crime victim.

There were no fingerprints
on this gum wrapper.

The attacker wore gloves.

Leather gloves.

TONY:
No, I saw what happened.

You and me are having
a conversation,

we're trying to
work something out...

Yeah, it is a violation.

There is an expectation of
privacy in our own office.

And she's just chatting away.
She's right over the hedge.

It is over the edge!

Actually, it's
"over the top,"

but it's pushing you
over the edge.
Huh?

And you know
what I think?
McGEE:
...forget trying it on.

TONY:
What are you guys talking about?

Um...

Tanning hides.
You?

The same.

Easy.

So you think our psycho's
got a flesh collection?

Think he's got
a pair of gloves?

[computer chimes]

Finally. All right, I am in.

Let's see what Froman was up to.

McGEE:
Ooh. We did not
find that.

According to his history,
Froman printed out

the specs for a warehouse
earmarked for the Phelps case.

Her entire estate was deemed the
result of a criminal enterprise.

Rather than secure her 400-acre
residence in Virginia,

NCIS took possession
of all her possessions.

And relocated them
to a secure warehouse.

Well, this is a location,

guard schedules,
security codes,
and inventory.

These printouts were nowhere
in the items we recovered.

If Froman was selling details

on how to rob
the entire warehouse,

and the buyer killed him
rather than pay him...

Then we're not looking
for a psycho.

We're looking for a crew.

There's gonna be a heist.

McGEE:
Leona Phelps preyed on
active and retired sailors.

She lost billions
of investor dollars

through various shell
corporations and ponzi schemes,

while amassing
a vast personal fortune.

NCIS confiscated and relocated
all of Phelps' possessions

to a warehouse
in Tysons Corner.

Her artwork, jewelry,
furniture,

and various collectibles

would recover
75 million at auction.

McGEE:
She was a notorious pack rat.

Among other things.

Froman had access
to the details?

Possibly tried
to sell them.

Like Heat.

The movie,
the Michael Mann movie.

Private security
on the warehouse?

Yeah, we'll take over.

Uh, we'll get the inventory.Take Ziva.

McGEE:
Where we going, boss?

Camp Cupcake.

Gonna visit Ms. Phelps
in Alderson Prison?

Schemer like her
was probably involved.

E.J., L.J., uh...

TONY:
Gibbs.

TONY:
She's new.

He's old.

Wouldn't put it past her.
Robbing herself.

You've met Phelps?Briefly.

She was transferring operations
to Europe when my team

brought her to
Director Vance's attention.

You have a team?

I'm team leader.
I have two other agents.

We're transferring
here. To D.C.

Where from?

Spain.

Rota, Spain.

You mean
[rolling "R"s]:
Rota.

[trying to roll "R"]:
Rota...

Yeah. I could never do that.

Inventory list.

Yeah. Let's do it.

WILSON:
Well, it's unassuming
from the outside, you know.

Just an old warehouse.

Built in the '70s, I think.

Modern security
measures?

Well, we got the place
wired with cameras.

Keypad entry.

Got these swipe cards here.

Three-man teams.
Ha.

Two men work,
one man naps.

Oh, you know
the drill.

But ain't nothing
gone missing.

How would you know?
Place looks like Xanadu.

Well, we ain't never had any
of these paintings come to life

and jump out the frame.
[laughing]

You referring to the
Olivia Newton-John movie?

Weren't you?

Xanadu.Uh...
Citizen Kane's house.

Oh. That's
a little embarrassing.

Yeah, for
both of you.

But, uh, really, how would you
know if somebody took Rosebud

out to go sledding?

TONY:
Nice.

Oh, hasn't been anyone
unauthorized in here.

Save you two.

I mean, this is a cush gig.

None of us want to
mess with that.

Tempting as it may be
to play with the toys.

These are Steve McQueen's
sunglasses

from The Thomas Crowne Affair.

Now, that was a heist.

[happy sigh]

She can't be all bad.

Mr. Wilson, we would like
to amplify your security,

since your protection measures
may have been leaked.

Y'all want to set up shop?

Fine by me.

Feel free to check
your list twice.

Holler if you need anything.

Mm-hmm. Thank you,
thank you.

[awed whisper]:
Wow.

TONY:
These thing sold at a European
action a few years ago

for $70,000.

That...

is ridiculous.

Yeah.

I had the opportunity

to transfer to Europe
a few years back.

I've never heard
you say that.

I heard Director Shepherd
offered you a team.

So where was it, exactly?

Spain.

Rota, Spain.

PHELPS:
You people better be
watching my things.

PRISONER:
Little help, Leona?

[sarcastically]:
Perfect.

If I have to play another
damn volleyball game,

I'm going to strangle someone.

Well, that'd be good.

Get you a nice room
in the supermax.

Yet another cheap suit,

hell-bent on railroading me
into a conviction.

And they say money's
supposed to buy justice.

It clearly can't buy class.

Am I talking to you, or your
acid-tongued little errand boy?

You know, you don't care
about any of the lives

you've ruined.
McGee.

Your things have been relocated.

What?

It's the first
you've heard of it?

I'm locked in this hole.

Your lawyers didn't tell you.

At pushing five figures an hour,
I avoid small talk.

with my defense team.

That's tough.
Well running dry?

I'll be fine.

Sure.

Billions unaccounted for.

Investing carries
inherent risk.

So does lying to
a federal agent.

I didn't ask to talk
to you, Agent Gibbs.

It was the other way around.

And as charming and clever
as you may find yourself,

it's not mutual, so get to it.

[sighs]

This is...

is supposed to be
in the villa in Seville,

and this is all my furniture.

This is...

This is...?

Everything.

We suspect that someone might
be trying to rob our facility.

A heist.

Who do you suspect?

Oh, I don't know,
who do you suspect?

I'll be late for
my pastry class.

Martha Stewart started it
when she was here.

Take care, Agent Gibbs.

It's one of Tony's movie myths.

I've never had a good time
in a women's prison.

[disgusted sigh]
What a horrible woman.

Video depositions.

Everything we have
on her victims.

Looking to put a face
to her crimes?

Tony and Ziva?

Said they plugged
the holes in

the warehouse security system
with motion detectors.

Monitoring now.

Figure since this crew
left the body behind them,

they'll probably strike quickly.

Yep.

Do you need any
help with the...

I can play a DVD, McGee.

MALE VOICE:
Navy Pension Fund deposition...

McGEE:
It's really sad.

A lot of hardworking people
forced out of retirement

after having their
pensions depleted.

WOMAN:
Grace Mullen.

My husband Benjamin
and I were advised

to move his Navy pension
to the Phelps Fund.

That's all gone now.

Ben managed to find work washing
floors at Lincoln School.

He always kept a straight back.

"I'm back swabbing
the decks on the Lincoln."

He-- he joked about that.

TONY [scoffs]:
Paintings come to life.

Guy probably thinks he's like

Ben Stiller in
Night at the Museum.

He's playing baseball
with himself.

He's a working stiff.

No magic there.

Fiddle Faddle?

What?
You want
something to eat?
No.

I have an apple
if you'd prefer.

He's gotta have
dreams, right?

He can't just go to work,

punch the clock,
walk the beat,

wake up, go back,

do it all over again.

Here.

Why do you
keep pushing
food on me?

Because your blood sugar
is dangerously low--

unless something else
is bothering you.

My name is Ruleo Medilla.

I drove a sanitation truck
in Detroit

before I took
partial disability.

You need something, Barrett?

No.

You need anything, Gibbs?

Night.

[alarm beeping]

Motion censor is tripped.

Wilson, what's your 20:00?

WILSON:
Uh, I'm at the guards office.

You have any men
on the floor?

Negative.

We have visitors.

False alarm, Wilson.

WILSON:
Copy that.

Hey, boss, couldn't call ahead?

Nope. I came in
the way they came in.

The heist
isn't coming.

They pulled it
off already.

What?

Like a thief in the night?

But nothing's missing.

No. Nothing on this list.

So what did they take?

Phelps went
straight to this page.

So something interested her
here, huh?

Ah. There's a
couple options.

I like this desk.

It's old-growth wood.

Craftsman laid.
[gasps]

It belonged to William Faulkner.

I love his
writing.

TONY:
Total genius.

Yes!

It was worth learning
English just for The
Sound and the Fury.

Or that chapter in
As I Lay Dying,

you know, the one with
the five words where
Vardaman says,

"My mother is a fish."

I don't really like
his books that much,

but I'm a big fan of the movies

he made based
on other people's books,

like The Big Sleep

and To Have and Have Not.

I mean he gave us
Bogey and Bacall.

God bless you, William Faulkner.

GIBBS: Dovetail joints
don't go with nails.

They've been here.

It's been jimmied.

There's gotta be a
manual release somewhere.

[secret door drops open]

Huh.

ZIVA:
They did not care
about this desk.

No. Only what was in here.

What was that?

[Ziva grunting, desk clattering]

[desk slamming]

Hey, you brought me
a new desk.

It's an old desk.

Did you find anything on
your leather DNA project?

Turns out it's impossible.

It's improbable.
It's just highly unlikely.

Can't really determine much
other than the type of cow.

Oh, what is that
on the plasma?

Oh, that's...
that's a different case.

That's for Special
Agent Barrett.

Have you met her? She talks
to herself all the time.

It's weird.
You'll like it.

Yeah. I do not like all the
shuffling of desks.

You know what, evidence garage,
it's right over there.

Huh.

Careful.

A man was killed for this.

I thought he was killed for
what was inside of it.

We do not even know
what that was.

Challenge accepted.

What kind of a cow?

It's a calf.

Holstein.

ZIVA:
Ah.

[door opening]

Tacky , Agent Gibbs.

I especially hate
the bracelets.

Not your favorite jewelry.

What do you want now?

Secret panel
in your desk,
it was empty.

Looks like it was pried open
with a screwdriver.

I was robbed.

Would you like to file a claim?

Against you?

For damages? Sure.

No, for your loss.

We'll need to know
what was in there.

[inhaling]:
What's the theory?

GIBBS:
Well, it must've been valuable.

They went straight
for the desk.

Didn't touch anything else.

Maybe you arranged it yourself.

[scoffs]
Interesting theory.

It was yours.

Two seconds into hearing
about the case,

you jumped right to it.

Broken clocks and
blind squirrels.

Really?

Just a lucky guess, huh?

I'm still just getting
the lay of the land.

Huh. Where'd you
find that chair?

It was over there
in the corner.

So what's your
quick read here?

She hates feeling
like a prisoner,

so Gibbs salts
the wound,

keeps her emotional.
He stays cerebral.

That's how you get
a captain's "C" on your jersey.

You a jock, DiNozzo?

Basketball.

Some other stuff.

Hmm. Varsity?

Team captain.

Once upon a time.

Hmm.

I was a cheerleader myself.

Oh?

Hmm.

I never got past
JV, though.

Kept getting distracted
by the boys.

[chuckles]

Oh.

I got to run. I got a
meeting with the director.

She'll want a deal.

I know.

What does he want?

Anybody else know
about the panel?

I had nothing to do
with this crime, Agent Gibbs.

I'm the victim.

However,
I can tell you

exactly who
you're looking for.

But you need to do something
for me.

[clattering on table]

When they've got all the
information they can gather

about the victim, I'd like him
to come back here with you.

You been able to
find everything you...

Thank you, EJ.

That didn't last long.

Knocking on my door.

Leona Phelps wants
to cut a deal.

Deal for what?

The name of Froman's killer.

She could have the name
of Jimmy Hoffa's killer.

There's no way we're going to
reduce the charges against her.

No, that's not
what she asked for.

Then what does
she want?

Get out of prison.

No.

House arrest,
pending her appeal.

She knows who targeted her.

You don't make deals, Gibbs.

This one's a steal.

Using the few clues
from the garage murder

and the warehouse
break-in,

I focused on substantial
unsolved heists in the area,

over the past ten years.

Here's what I found.

Six years ago,
casino cage,

Atlantic City.

Two-man team goes
in with hot iron.

Three guards get bloody.
One gets aced.

Stick up man goes
toes-up on the carpet.

The other goes out the door
with 27 million clams.

Getaway driver

scoops him curbside,
guns blazing.

They dump and burn the ride
on the Jersey border.

And then they are Casper.

All right, McGem City,
where does that get us, huh?

Unless you built a proton pack

in your spare time,
we can't bust ghosts, so...

The guy they left behind
has a rap sheet

as long as a...

As long as a...

What's really long?

This presentation.

The FBI tracked down
known associates

of the dead guy
and they found nada.

27 million, split two ways?

That's "one last score"
kind of money. They're gone.

White sand beaches
and umbrella drinks

for the rest of your life.

Who would come back
from that?

That question has to
wait till we come back.

Uh, boss, McGee thinks
he's got a lead on the crew.

I got a quicker one.

Ziva, let's go.

Where we going?

To spring Leona Phelps

from Camp Cupcake.

You made a deal with her?

[sighs]

You did quick work, Gibbs.

Name.

We met in 2005

at my office at home

to discuss a
business proposition.

Among the many objet d'art,

he was particularly
preoccupied

with the Faulkner desk.

Your favorite hiding place.

Yes.

His name is Otto Brackin.

[speed-dials]

[line ringing]

McGee?

GIBBS:
McGee, Otto Brackin.

I know. Wait, how do you know?

What do I know?

Well, he was a cellmate
of the guy who died

in the casino heist.

They did a two-year stretch
together at Ossining.

Where is he now?

Virginia State Police
found his body

a few hours ago.
He's dead.

[clears throat]

Virginia PD says
the motel room

where they found
Otto Brackin's body

was trashed.
Major struggle.

So, lacerations
were on his liver?

Identical wounds
to those on Froman.

Same knife,
same style, same killer.

Job's done. So, what?
He turns on his partner?

There's no honor
among thieves.

What, they fight over
the split, maybe?

Or something
went sideways?

Well, Grand
Theft Otto here

matches the physical
description

of the second
stick-up man

from the cage robbery.

Leaves the getaway
man outstanding.

Why is that outstanding?

Motel manager got plates
and a description.

Got a BOLO out on the car.
Lexus, stolen.

Okay, okay.

This is the second guy
to get gutted on this caper.

And somehow this woman's
at the heart of it.

It's a heist movie.

So there's
just one question

that we have to answer:

What would Steve McQueen do?

You know,
it seems unfair.
You get to go home

for giving us
the name of a man

who's recently
been murdered.

GIBBS:
A deal's a deal, Ziva.

You ought to muzzle
your pups, Agent Gibbs.

They all seem to have
a problem with barking.

No, this one's
problem's definitely
her bite.

I couldn't have predicted
Brackin's death.

And I certainly
couldn't have

anything to do with it
from the inside.

Is that why you wanted
out so badly?

Didn't look
so terrible to me.

PHELPS:
You've obviously never had
your freedom taken away.

[laughs] A real gift
for reading people, this one.

Perception is reality.

If I'm seen
as a criminal,

I'll be treated
as a criminal.

Despite the lack
of hard evidence

on the part
of prosecution,

incarceration sure gives
the appearance of guilt.

Kind of empty
without all your
beautiful things.

They're nothing...
next to freedom.

Do not get ahead
of yourself.

If you go beyond
that door,

we will know about it.

Fine. But other than that,
you leave me alone.

No police presence!

GIBBS:
Yep, that was the deal.

ZIVA:
Enjoy solitary
confinement.

TONY:
We steal for a living.

We pull off that one last score,
McGee, we're set for life.

But the cheese is hot.

Where do we stash
the cash?

Huh. Well, of course,
we take a meeting

with Leona Phelps,
the unscrupulous
money manager.

She's not gonna
ask questions.

Right. If we invest our
stolen money with her...

She'll clean it up,

and we'll be fine.

Till the whole thing
goes pear-shaped.

And we're broke.

That's it.

She doesn't just ruin
the lives of good people.

She ruins the lives
of bad people, too.

The crooks have to come
out of retirement.

They've got to pull off
one last, one last score.

I'll cross-reference
the names of Phelps'

victims with
criminal records.

Bet we come up with someone
who served time with Brackin.

What are they after?

You want to know what
was in the desk?

Absolutely.

Believe it or not,
I found a collagen fiber

that I determined
to be deerskin.

Deer, huh? [chuckles]

Um, I also found traces of
cellulose mixed in the linen

as well as thermochromic ink
in the wood.

High-end paper
and security ink.

After referencing
the Secret Service

ink and paper libraries, that is
where Leona Phelps stashed

her Italian-made,
leather-embossed,

one-of-a-kind
bookkeeping ledger.

So, all
the missing money,

I'm thinking "secret account"
somewhere.

And it's all in the ledger,
which was all in the desk.

Key word: "was."

[sighs]

[floorboard creaking]

I thought the deal was,
I get left alone.

MEDILLA:
Me, too.

That was how Otto
convinced me

to invest my money with you.

We were never
gonna work again.

You ruined that.

Mr. Medilla...

I'm sorry to hear
about your partner.

We found the guy

who could get us
in that warehouse.

We went to all that trouble.

The damn ledger
wasn't even there.

I can imagine you must
have been very upset.

I was.

I would like to have it now.

You want money.

I understand.
I can get you money.

I do.

And more than that...

I want your blood.

[phone rings]

Yeah, it's Gibbs.

Boss, DNA from the gum wrapper
matched Ruleo Medilla.

He's the last member
of the crew.

Phelps lost all their money.
She knew it was them

as soon
as she heard the word "heist."

She knew what they were after.

Same thing
the prosecution's after.

Same thing you're after.
She had to

get out and get it first.
It's a smoking gun.

Uh-huh. What's next?

Bullitt.

[panicked gasping]

Oh, she's on the run.

Help!

He's got a knife!

Please!

Ziva, stay with her!

[grunts]

[tires squealing]

You violated
your house-arrest agreement.

But for this,

you're going away
for life.

[panting]

[engine revving]

[engine revving]

[metal crunching]

[grunts]

[tires squealing]

[sighs]

TONY: Like Doc McCoy in
The Getaway.

Yeah? No, not really.

McQueen had Jewison,
he had Yates,

he had Peckinpah
right there,

guiding him,
navigating him.
molding him.

You would have made
a great director, boss.

Yeah, well, already got
one of those.

McQueen also had
Jacqueline Bisset,

Faye Dunaway
and Ali MacGraw.

You notice the new girl
likes to shower here

before she goes home?

Hey, did you hear me?

TONY:
You know, I was
offered your job.

I turned it down.

Thank you.

Towel, please?

[shower turns off]

So, why would you do that?

I wanted this team,
here in D.C.;

the varsity.

How'd Gibbs feel about that?

Well, he left.
He gave it to me.

You know, I was
pretty good at it.

I mean, I made
a couple rookie mistakes,

but I was figuring it out.

And then Gibbs
took it back?

Yeah, he did.

The previous director,
Shepard, she, uh...

she saw something in me.

Kept an eye on me.

Smart woman.

Hmm.

There are rules
against this.

No, there aren't.
