Ziva, what happened to you?

ZIVA: One of my demons has become anxiety.

If they find you with Gibbs, you will pay the price.

And so will I.GIBBS: I want to know

who we're running from.Her name is Sahar.

She wants me dead. And now she's after you. [gunshot]

Sahar was rising to power with my brother

until I killed him.

The only way back home to Tali is if Sahar is dead.

It's over.But I will not be going back to prison.

[gunshots]

There's one more thing I have to do to put all this behind me.

And this time,

I have to do it alone.

♪ [people whooping]

[indistinct chatter]

The hell you think you're going?

I have an appointment with Mr. Mir.

Carter?Yeah.

Yeah, let her through.

Wow.

You got, like, your own thing going, huh?

Kind of like, uh, apple pie or something.

Is this happening or not?

Oh, yeah. Yeah, have a seat.

I said sit down.

Ooh...

Took a lot of balls walking in here all by yourself

dressed like my Aunt Karen, huh?

Hey. I got a room in the back--

it's just four walls.

But there's a pile of stuff in there

that would shoot us straight to the clouds. [sniffs]

The drive. Now.

Or I walk.

The money first.

[line ringing]

Make the transfer.

[phone dings]

[chuckles]

Ah.

Everything's on it?

Oh, I got no idea what's on it, Apple Pie.

You see, I'm in the business of information. It's what I do.

So I just stay out of the details, you know?

Hey.

I am a hundred grand richer than I was when you sat down.

You missed out, Apple.

Oh, come on. I like the spunk.

Bye, Apple.

I got it.

Ziva will thank you for your assistance.

Odette, Gibbs hasn't heard from her since she left.

Where is she? Why hasn't she gone home yet?

It's safer for you not to know.

Did you really think that I was just gonna

blindly keep another one of Ziva's secrets?

The only reason I agreed to this

was to find out what's going on with her

and report back to my team.

Eleanor.

Give me the drive.

Or what?

♪

Ho, ho, ho.Jethro Gibbs, you're here.

[chuckles]Come on.

It's going everywhere.Wait.

PHINEAS: We don't know how to stop it.

For the record, I was against calling you this late.

But we flipped a coin and I won.

Yeah, fair is fair.

Got it.

Ah. Lord above.

[chuckling]: You're an angel.[chuckles]

Told you he'd fix it.

I just turned off the water.

I'll come back tomorrow with a part.

Thank you.

Huh.

You okay?Yeah.

There was a sharp edge on the pipe.

You know, if you need help with anything, I'm here.

Jethro Gibbs,

do you like trees with tinsel on them?

Well, yeah. Who doesn't?

Awesome. Because I'm gonna dedicate our tree to you,

since you're the one who got it for us.

And I'm gonna put this on top,

instead of a star, because you're kind of like the police,

except way cooler.Phineas.

Oh, the lights are broken. Can you fix them?Phin!

I think Agent Gibbs has helped us enough for one night.[phone ringing]

Hey. Bishop.

See, Mom? I told you.

Agent calls never stop.

Wait. What exactly did you do for her?

BISHOP: Met with a man named Victor Mir.

Owns a club in Langdon.

Picked up this drive from him.

Ziva asked you to do that?

Not exactly. Uh, Odette

asked me to do it for Ziva.Why--

Ziva couldn't do it herself?

The place was packed. Odette said

Ziva doesn't do well in crowds.

Since when?Since when?

I don't know. Look, whatever is on here

is worth 100K.

Odette rounded up the money herself.

So, Odette paid for the drive, but you walked away with it.

Yeah. I'm done with secrets.

Damn. Boss move, Bishop.

Yeah, but why aren't we telling Gibbs this?

Uh, I did. I gave him and Vance the quick version.

Vance is in Geneva, Gibbs is on his way in.

All right, let's see what's on it.

By the way, thank you for including me on this.

I-I missed Ziva last time she came,

and I did not take it well.

KASIE: So, this Odette-- she pretends

to be landlady, she rounds up weapons and cash.

What's her deal?TORRES: Old people are tricky.

I don't trust her.

It looks like

there's just the one photo.

100K for

two guys walking into a building?

Wait a second, who is that? Is that...

That's Adam Eshel.Who is that?

Childhood friend of Ziva's.

Israeli intelligence. Shin Bet.

That other guy's holding him.

Looks like his hands are bound.

Do we know anything else about this Adam guy?

Ziva mentioned him in her journal

as a friend and contact, but other than that, no.

Well, maybe Gibbs knows more.

Why is Gibbs not here yet?

Gibbs.

What happened?

Are you okay?Are you?

The number I gave you was for emergencies only.

Yeah, I figured there had to be one.

That's the only way you would have pulled in

one of my agents behind my back.

What?Bishop called me.

Said that she did some kind of underground pickup for you.

I do not know anything about this.

I swear to you on my life.

Then what the hell's going on?

I understand your reasons, Odette,

but this is unacceptable.

We'll discuss it later.

That was Odette.

She was the one who brought in Bishop.

Why?

She was trying to protect me.

From what?

Bishop said it was about the crowd?

The anxiety?

First time it happened was in a crowd.

In a market.

It was the worst moment of my life,

and you know that's saying a lot.

Odette thought sending you in a crowd

would trigger another attack.

The thing is panic strikes when it wants.

Gibbs, I remember rule number six well,

but I am truly sorry.

This thing that I told you I was working on,

I told you I wanted to do it on my own, and I meant it.

Hey, Ziva, I'm not doing this again with you.

You don't want my help, go.

Do you remember my contact?

Yeah, guy who made the drop on the bus.

Adam Eshel, yes.

I wanted to make sure that he was safe.

I wanted to make sure that he was alive.

Been trying to find him. I can't...

I can't find him. Something is wrong.

Odette just told me that she put out feelers to her network,

offering a reward

for intel on his whereabouts.

The drive that Bishop retrieved

was in response to that, and I need it back.

You said going home was the only thing that mattered to you.

Why put that on hold...

to find him?

ANCHOR: And now for a ZNN update

on the farmhouse bombing.

The attack occurred on an isolated farmhouse

once belonging to former

Mossad director Eli David.

Reports suggest one possible survivor,

but that has yet to be confirmed. In other news...

Ziva. Come.

They said the explosion nearly took the whole house.

You are not hurt?

She's exhausted, but she's okay.

Quickly. Better to do this before she wakes.

Perhaps there's another way.

Ziva, this is your way, remember?

This is the only way.

I will deliver her to Orli and she will give her to Tony.

Adam, I cannot do this.

If you want her to survive this, you must.

Come.

Follow her

all the way through until she's safe with Tony.

[crying]

Your daughter will be safe.

I give you my word. Now go.

And stick to the shadows, hmm?

I love you, Tali.

[Ziva panting]

[Tali crying]

ANCHOR: Breaking news. Breaking news. Breaking news.

Ziva David survives explosion

only to abandon daughter, Tali.

[distorted]: As more reports come flooding in...

After ensuring Tali's safety,

Adam helped me put a name to the person who wanted me dead.

Sahar.

Adam became a mole inside Sahar's splinter group

to try to track her down.TORRES: And that's how

you found out that Sahar was coming after Gibbs.

It was an inside tip from Adam, yes.

So when you warned Gibbs, Adam was exposed,

outed as a mole.

I jeopardized his life,

and now I cannot find him, and that is that.

Gibbs, I've kept my end of the agreement.

Can we please...We made a deal. From now on,

she updates us, we update her.

Understood?Yeah.

Show her.

When was this taken?

Encrypted date stamp puts it at a week ago.

He's alive.

Am I missing something?

We killed Sahar.

She was dead on the floor.

Yeah, and all of her people

were rounded up by INTERPOL.

Yeah, so who's this guy that's got Adam?

Okay, let's go.

Come to mama.

Give me a match.

Yeah, light it up.Jimmy, what the...

Ooh!

How long have you been sitting there?

I don't know-- maybe ten minutes?

Gibbs and Ziva are meeting with the team upstairs,

and I... I thought that their next stop

would definitely be here. I am definitely

not missing out on seeing Ziva again.

Maybe you could say hi next time instead of lurking

in the corner like a evil leprechaun.

Got an update?

-Ziva! [laughing] -[grunts]

Good to see you, Jimmy.

Not now.

Right, you got an important mission.

Ziva, the myth, the legend-- pleasure to meet you.

I have stuff for you.

I'm all eardrums.Huh?

Just go on.Okay. So, facial recognition

is up and running on Adam's captor, and this,

as you know, is Adam and his captor walking into a building

about a week ago. I was able to clean up

a reflection in one of the windows.

Get us the location of the building.

Was it a reflection of a street sign or...?

Please, that would've been too easy.

No, the reflection was of

half a number on a utility pole transformer.

So I was able to use that plus the direction of the sun

to triangulate a...Got an address?

Oh, are you seriously not gonna,

like, let me explain how I did this?

Okay. It's an

old factory set for demolition. Oof.

Looks like the building is barely standing.

Thank you, Kasie.

Get us the address.

Update the team.

And I want an ID on that guy.

Okay, explain the eardrums thing.

There's no one here.

Hey, McGee.

We got nothing.

We'll canvass the area.

We'll get back to you.

There were several buildings half a mile back.[music playing in distance]

Perhaps someone saw something that...

[music continues playing]

[music stops]MAN: Help. Here.

ZIVA: Adam.

I'm here.

[wheezing]

Sahar. Sahar...

Sahar...

No, no, no, no, no.

She's dead. It's over.

No.

The woman was a decoy.

What woman?

The woman you killed.

The real Sahar is alive.

Who is she?

Where is she, Adam?

You know her.

You know her.

Adam, how do I know her?

Adam?

Adam?[grunts]

He's breathing.

We need to get him out of here.

GIBBS: I don't have a key for this. Where's the key?

Got 'em.

[creaking]

Uh-oh.

ADAM: You see, there she is.

I observed her from afar the entire journey.

[short laugh]

She cried on the plane with Orli,

But once she saw Tony

there were no more tears.

He put her in a stroller and took her to the park, huh?

[short laugh]

You must take these

and destroy them, Adam, please.

I cannot bring myself to do it.

The panic?

It comes and goes after I left Tali.

But Tali's safety is not the only thing I worry about.

Tony's gonna come looking for me.

Of that, I'm certain.

So will Gibbs.

They believe the story.

They believe you are dead.

Ziva, we will work together.

We will find this threat against you,

and we will neutralize it.

GIBBS: Ziva, wake up.

Ziva, you all right?

Hey, you okay?

Yeah.

You all right?I'm okay, yeah.

What happened?

We fell through.

Adam. Adam!

We need to get back up there.

No, there's nothing to hang on to.

There's no climbing out.

Oh...

What about your cell phone?

Eh, there's no cell reception.

Well, then tell me how to get out of here, Gibbs.

He's dying up there.

There's a staircase back there.

There's a door behind all this stuff.

You've got to be kidding me. There's no time.

Who knows how long it'll take us

to move all this stuff out of the way

or if we'll even be able to do it at all.

Look. [grunts]

Hey. Hey, hey! Hold up!

No, that's-that's a load-bearing beam.

The beam above it is rotted.

This whole place is rotted to hell.

Okay, but if we knock out this pole,

the entire structure will collapse, and then we can

just climb up the rubble.No, no.

If it collapses, we'll be dead underneath it.

We can take cover in the shaft.No.

We won't have time to get there.

I can't let him die up there alone, Gibbs.

What about Sahar?

You can't protect your daughter from her

if you are down here...

dead.

Adam said I knew Sahar.

But I don't know who she is.

Manual labor.

It'll help you think.

We got ourselves a match, baby.

Meet Adam Eshel's captor.Who is he?

TORRES: He's a gun-for-hire, wanted in eight countries.

Born in England, though that's up for debate.

Mossad says he's from Belgium, MI6 claims he's Croatian.

Does he have a name?

MCGEE: Got an alias-- Gabriel Cross.

This guy is very into aliases.

Kasie made a list of the ones we know of.

So, basically we don't know who this dude is.

It's gonna take forever to go through these names

to figure out who hired him.

Gibbs' phone went straight to voice mail.

Well, he and Ziva are canvassing the area around the factory.

Could be reception's just spotty out there.

[grunting]

Pull.

Come on.[shouts]

It's meaningless.

It's no use.

We'll never move this thing.

Adam!

Okay, you can take cover or you can help me.

Ziva.Look, we tried it your way

and it didn't work.

I'm gonna knock down this pole.

And I'm gonna take cover, okay?

Will you just listen to me?

Our muscles are burnt out.

Give them a minute to recover,

and then we can move this thing.

Gibbs, he doesn't have a minute.

You're gonna... Come on.

Tell me about Tali.

What?

[chuckles]

Tell me about her.

Oh...

She hates Band-Aids.

After Tony left NCIS with Tali,

he tracked me down in Cairo.

He found me.

Since then I've told him only what he needed to know.

We've had very little contact.

So, Cairo was

the last time I held...

Tali.

She had this, uh...

little scrape on her knee.

Oh, she hates Band-Aids. [laughs]

So...

Tony got her to wear one

by cutting it into the shape of a heart.

When I saw this, I... I just knew

he would watch over her.

He would keep her safe.

But Adam has kept her safe, too.

By watching over me.

Let's get him out of here.

On three.

One, two, three, go.

[both grunting]

[exclaims]

Adam.

He doesn't have a pulse.

[grunts]

Come on, fight. Fight, Adam.

Come on, stay with me, stay with me.

Fight.

[grunting]

Ziva.

Call an ambulance.

Stay with me.Hey.

Stop it.

[grunts]

Call an ambulance, Gibbs!

He's gone. He's gone.

[grunts]

Hey, you all right?

Oh, I've been better.

We've gone back through everything

that we had on Sahar.

Gibbs.Boss, you okay? Ziva okay?

How'd we get this wrong?

Somebody tell me how the woman we killed

ended up some kind of fake.

Well, we got part of it right.

The real Sahar was in a Syrian POW camp

before Ziva's farmhouse exploded.

And none of our sources ever had a real description of her.

BISHOP: But when we went through the chatter

with this person in mind, we found two mentions

of a woman who aided Sahar's escape.

McGEE: She was described as "dark hair, small in stature,

but sure of herself in weaponry."

TORRES: We also have lots

of sources that say that Sahar

has been at two places at once

over the years.

That's what made her so hard to track.

BISHOP: And because no one knew what she looked like,

we think she had a habit of having her minions pose as her.

That's how she was able to keep her locations under wraps.

Take down the picture.

Take it down.

I want to know who the real Sahar is,

and where she is now.

Well, she had to be the one to hire Cross to capture Adam.

She's still gunning hard for Ziva.

BISHOP: Well, it makes sense that she would be holding a grudge.

She was rising to power in that splinter group alongside Ari.

So when Ziva killed him...Sahar lost everything,

went off her rocker, I know that.

Adam said Ziva knows Sahar.

Ziva's trying to figure out anybody who fits that bill.

This is what we got so far. I'll look into it.

You expect more from her, okay?

How's she doing?

Back in her office.

Adam's another significant loss for her, Gibbs.

She needs to stop and process that.

She's not using her head, Jack.

And what about you? Where are you on all this?

She asked me to help.

Yeah, but at what cost?

This is not about who's feeling what, Jack.

We got to get something up on that screen, now.

[indistinct chatter]

Ziva.

I subdued and questioned the target.

He had many secrets, but none of them

had anything to do with Sahar.

It does not matter.

A car will arrive for you

outside that door in four minutes.

Take this passport, head to D.C. and wait to hear from me.

Why? What is going on?I have made contact

with someone inside Sahar's splinter group.

They're stationed in the U.S.,

and they are bringing me into the fold.

[sighs]I will gather intel from the inside

and find a way to report back to you.

No, that is too dangerous.

I will not let you act as a mole on my behalf.

This is the only way we are going to find Sahar.

How many more years of this can you survive, eh?

That is right. Years.

You have given years of your life for this, and for what?

You have Tony,

and he will always have your heart.

But Ziva...

you will always have mine.

Adam, I...

But that is the thing about love, hmm?

Even if it cannot be returned,

it never goes away.

I will not let you risk your life for me.

It is not up to you.

Go.

[door opens]

Odette pulled out everything she had saved along

the way to help me remember.

And?I don't know what Adam meant.

I still don't know how I know Sahar.

What about that list I gave you?

So far, bunch of dead ends.

Why are you here?

Sahar is smarter than we thought.

I think you should contact DiNozzo

and have him take Tali into hiding.

I already told you

Sahar does not know that Tali exists.

If I make contact, I put my daughter at risk.

You can use a secure line at headquarters.

Hell, you probably have one in here.

That's not the point.

You don't want to make the call, let me do it.

That's not the point.

You're afraid.

If he knows how bad it is, he'd come.

I will not risk Tali losing both of her parents.

He needs to stay with her.

Well, then you need to trust him to do that, Ziva.

I don't trust. You know what happens when I trust?

People end up dead. That's what happens when I trust.

No, we made the right call down there.And knocking down that pole

would have taken less than a minute.

We could have saved him, we could've...No,

we would all be dead.

How do you know that for sure?

I'm telling you, I do.

What I don't know is what these years did to you.

Your head is not on straight.

No.

My judgment has never been clearer.

Perhaps it was clouded

the day I killed my brother to save you.

Had I not taken that shot,

none of this would be happening.

Go ahead, Ziva, blame me.

Whatever.

You need to do right by your daughter.

[door closes]

[sighs]

I know we didn't know each other well,

but I also know that you did everything you could for Ziva,

so... thank you.

Hey.

You need a minute?

No. What do we know?

Well... as you can see, Adam's body

suffered a significant amount of trauma.

Many of these wounds were reopened repeatedly.

He was tortured. What about the other one?

Cross died from gunshot wounds inflicted by Gibbs and Ziva.

I sent his stomach contents and swabs up to Kasie for analysis.

Did you find anything on his cell phone?

Burn phone, never used.

You got to make it right, Ellie.

What do you want, me to send flowers?

All right, listen up, people.

I did some digging on this Odette lady.

Turns out that she's an ex-CIA.

She was an instructor at MOTC.W-What is that?

It's like hardcore ranger school for spies.

And back in the day, she got fired from it. Why?

Frickin' classified.

Oh, man, w... You...

And you're on her bad side, Bishop.

McGEE: You stole her drive.

And she's still furious with you.

Well...

That's what I'm saying, Ellie.

You cannot piss off that kind of badass and just walk away.

That's like...

Something you would do?KASIE: Okay.

Fascinating as this is, I found something.

There was a large amount of a chemical brightening agent

on the swab of Cross' left hand.

Meaning what?A whole lot of UV stamps.

The sheer amount of them tells us two things.

One, he wasn't big on handwashing. Gross.

And two...

He frequented the place where he got them.

KASIE: Ooh. Where you been

hanging out, B?

Victor Mir's club.

The-the stamp gets you into the VIP area.

But Victor said he didn't know anything

about what was on that drive.

But if Cross here was a regular VIP at the club...

Victor lied. He has to know something.

Well, let's pick him up. Is he at the club?Always.

But he's unstable and armed

and he's got security and a place full of innocent people.

So, I mean, we have to walk in with a plan.

TORRES: Mm.

I can't wait to see where she's going with this.

Special Agent Gibbs. Got a few questions...

[groans]

Hola,Victor.

Uh...

You looking for this?

Oh, look, Apple...

Hands on your head.

[sighs]A woman named Sahar.

Uh...What do you know about her?

You know, I got some friends. They can make your day real bad.

You should think about that...

[grunts]

Who is Sahar? Where is she?

She's not... I don't where she is.

But you know her.

I never met her. She's...

She's, like, a pretend waitress or...

The hell does that mean?Oh! God.

She goes by Sarah. She's got a kid.

[exclaims]

What's the kid's name?

What's the name?

Phineas.

Adam said "You know Sahar."

He wasn't talking to Ziva. He was talking to you, Gibbs.

Can I help you?You Phineas' mom?

I said not to tell her. She gets mad.

GIBBS: Hmm. You okay?

[laughs softly]

SARAH: Thank you for watching him.

And I will be back by tomorrow night.

BISHOP: Gibbs?

Phin, where are you?

You scared me.

Where's your mom?

She's at work.

She didn't want me to tell you this, but...

sometimes she leaves me alone at night to go.

What's wrong, Jethro Gibbs?

All right, what do we know?

The boy's at your house with an agent?

McGee brought me up to speed.

I said what do we know?

We've contacted all diners within a 20-mile radius.

BISHOP: None of them have an employee matching

Sarah's description, so the waitress job

was likely just part of the act.

McGEE: We think she moved in next door

to lie in wait for Ziva to come back.

She used Phineas to get close to you.

She's obviously willing to use any means necessary

to get what she wants, Gibbs.

Yeah, or maybe we called the wrong diner.

Gibbs, why are you questioning this?

Victor said it was her, and I saw your face--

you knew what he was gonna say before he said it.

I want proof.

Hey, hey, hey, hey.

McGee told me how much this boy means to you.

Now, whose judgment is being clouded?

You don't do anything until I say so.

If Victor knows this much about Sahar,

it's likely he knows more.

We should question him again.

Well, that's not happening.

He lawyered up on the way to NCIS.

What did my mom do?

I don't know.

Maybe nothing.

But I need you to help me find her.

If something happens to her,

I'll be alone.

[sniffling softly]

Phin.

Do you know where she is?

No. I thought she was at work. I swear.

Promise me you won't let her get hurt.

[sniffles]

Uh, I said the thing.

I said "lawyer."I heard.

But until he arrives,

I thought you and I could chew the lard.

What? What does that ev... I-I... No, no, no, no, no.

You can't do that. Hey, there's rules.

Well, I don't work here, and...

no one knows I'm here anyway, so...

this little chat you and I are gonna have--

it's gonna be off the books.

What?

Your friend.

Cross tortured a good man.

Look, I don't even know

what ride you're on right now, but, uh,

I already said everything I know,

so you can try to scare me...

Oh! No, no, no.This knife

has met deviants in the streets of Israel,

in the sweatshops of Turkey, the high seas, the Horn of Africa,

and every alley, gutter and rotting pit in between,

[grunts]and it never once,

never once... has it failed me.Uh-huh, uh-huh.

Ow. Okay, you're... you're Ziva David. Okay.

Just lose the knife, and I'll talk, okay?

I don't like knives...You talk. You have to talk!

I don't like knives!

All right, look, listen...

Cross was holding your friend, right,

but h-he never tortured him.

Sahar did that herself.

Yeah. She'd be like, "I'm at my waitressing job,"

but really she was out looking for leads on you.

Her "work nights"...

she'd end up cutting up your friend or whatever,

try to get him to say where you were, but he never did.

How do you know this?

Sahar would show up at that building

to see your friend, and bam...

Cross would leave.

He'd come to the club, drink,

spill his guts-- that's how I know.

[yells]

Why should I believe you?

Only time that Cross talked to Sahar

was when she went to that building, okay? See?

She probably thinks everything is still normal.

Sahar's on her way to question Adam now.

Oh.

Hey!

What the...?

Ari and I...

had a vision for our people.

We were building a legacy.

And with one shot...

you ended it.

But our story isn't over...

[sniffs] you and I.

Just last night...

when I came here

to visit Adam...

...something happened.

He was delirious with pain,

and he thought

I was you.

And he said to me,

"Your daughter will be safe.

You have my word."

[panting]

You have a daughter.

[grunts loudly, kicks wooden beam]

After I kill you,

I will find her...

and I will end your legacy.

My daughter...

will be everything she's meant to be.

[grunting, kicking]

How did he know where Sahar would be?

The laptop.

The one Phineas had left at Gibbs' house.

Sahar had bugged it.

Phin had no idea.

But Gibbs--

he figured it out.

McGEE: We traced the bug

to a burn phone that Sahar had on her.

Pinged it for a location.

14 years ago,

Ziva kills her brother Ari.

14 years and one bullet.

Look what it's left in its wake.

ODETTE: Right or wrong, every time we act,

something is lost that we can never regain.

Don't you agree?

I'm not going to apologize, if that's why you called me here.

Do you know why I asked you to retrieve that drive?

You said Ziva doesn't do well in crowds.

I did say that.

And yet I'm fully aware her anxiety

could strike at any moment.

Crowd or empty room.

So you knew she was too proud to call Gibbs herself,

but she needed him.

And, in a way, he needed her, too.

They had unfinished business to address.

Why involve me at all?

Why not just call Gibbs?

Two birds with one stone, my dear.

I had a performance to evaluate.

Took a lot of guts to walk away from me with that drive.

I see a certain...

promise in you, Agent Bishop.

I'd like to offer you some...

specialized training,

if you'd be interested.

[toy's siren blaring]

[door opens, closes]

How's the arm?Nothing serious.

I'll live.

Phineas?

He's asleep upstairs.

I haven't told him yet.

[sighs]

[sighs heavily]

After you left my office, I did what you said.

I called Tony and I told him to take Tali into hiding.

For everyone's safety, I do not know where they went.

Once they are there and secure, Tony...

will make contact with me.

You looking for a place to stay till then?

[laughs]

I should not have let you mourn me.

I should have come to you after the explosion.

I should have trusted you.

You would have been there for me.

Like you were there tonight.

It cost a lot.

But I will never regret taking that shot.

Like I'll never regret the one I took for you, either.

PHINEAS [in distance]: Jethro Gibbs?

Are you there?
