MAN: Here you go. Merry Christmas.
- Thank you.

- Welcome home, commander.
- Hey, Joe.

- How was the tour?
- Too long.

- Your house looks great.
- Thanks.

I can see my husband didn't exactly
knock himself out with ours.

JOE:
Well, happy holidays.

[CHRISTMAS MUSIC
PLAYING ON TV]

Noel!

Noel!

[SNIFFS]

What's that terrible smell?

[INDISTINCT DIALOGUE ON TV]

[GASPS]

MEGAN: I thought he'd pick me up
at the airport last night.

But when he didn't show,
I had to take a cab.

- Where were you?
- The Gulf.

Aboard the Stennis.
For the last six months.

When was the last time
you spoke to your husband?

Thanksgiving. When I called him.

That was almost a month ago.

- Where'd your husband work?
MEGAN: Work?

He was an unemployed
Navy husband, Agent Gibbs.

Thank you, commander.
Appreciate it.

Don't take this the wrong way,
Dr. Mallard. I love my job. I really do.

But I will never get used to the odor
of a decomposed body.

Ah, yes, the pungent bouquet
of hydrogen sulfide and methane

[SNIFFS]

With a faint hint
of corpus mercurium captans.

Thank God there's no maggots.

That would make it a perfect day
at the office.

No sign of forced entry, boss.
Nothing appears to be missing.

- How long has he been here, Duck?
- Educated guess, three or four weeks.

Well, that works.
Based on postmarks,

mail has been collecting
since November 27th.

- Anything else?
- No visible wounds.

Hopefully, cause of death
will be determined at autopsy.

McGEE: Neighbors we spoke to
hadn't seen him in weeks.

But they said that wasn't unusual.

His employment record was spotty.

[PHONE BEEPS]

TONY:
That's my flight app.

Dad's plane's been delayed.

Huffner never lasted long on a job.
Had not worked in over a year.

He was also estranged
from the rest of his family.

Record?

- Any criminal record?
- No.

Uh, well, I mean,
there was a DUI back in 2009.

There's a storm in New York.
It's always complicated with senior.

- Where's your dad going?
- Going? Oh, I wish.

He's coming. Here.

He says he wants
to spend Christmas with me.

You did not tell us your father
would be coming to town.

I didn't think it was gonna happen

because something
always comes up, doesn't it?

- Well, I think it sounds wonderful.
TONY: Well, I don't.

We're not... Doesn't...
It always ends up in an argument.

Still decorating?

- Christmas is only four days away.
- No, no.

Christmas is three days, 14 hours,
27 minutes and three seconds away.

- Ha, ha.
- What do you got?

The contents of the victim's pockets.

- Where's his clothes?
- Still in the air dryer.

Trust me, you do not want
to deal with them right now.

- I like the addition of the carollers.
- Thank you.

- Huffner's phone is dead.
- Just like him.

He's got two 20s, one 10
and two singles.

Men are so simple.

My wallet is bulging.
You can't even close the snap.

And it would take hours
to go through all the cards.

He has two.

Oh, there's another bill in here.
Must be his emergency stash.

What is this?

It doesn't look like any $100 bill
I've ever seen.

LINDER: It's authentic.
TONY: You're kidding.

Old Ben Franklin looks like
he's on steroids.

We call it the New Benjamin.

It was designed to replace
all existing $100 bills.

- Where did NCIS get this?
- Found it on a dead body.

Something's very wrong here.

This new currency hasn't been
put into circulation yet.

None of it has ever left our control
or been outside a Treasury building.

Over a decade of research
and development

went into the New Benjamin's
security features.

Let me show you.

The changes include color-shifting
numbers and Liberty Bell,

a 3-D ribbon and raised printing.

It's counterfeit-proof.

When's it going to be put
into circulation?

Initially the bills were gonna
be released in February 2011.

But there were production problems
and distribution was delayed.

So, what's the problem?

Well, because of all
the new security features,

it proved to be
a very difficult bill to produce.

Um, during the printing process,
there were little creases in the notes.

- Little creases?
- It's kind of a technical thing.

[PHONE RINGING]

Sorry.

Much to our embarrassment,

uh, bills with a face value
of 110 billion dollars were printed.

We're not exactly sure
how many of them were flawed,

but estimates go, uh,
to, uh, 30 percent.

Wow. You'd get a big head slap
in our building for that.

That's big numbers. So heads roll?

Well, we really don't get
into finger-pointing here

at the BEP, Agent DiNozzo.

Where are the bills now?

In vaults, in Fort Worth, Texas
and here in Washington.

[PHONE RINGING]

Sorry. L...

- It's senior. I'll make it quick.
- Let me check the serial number.

TONY:
Hi, Dad.

No, I'm in the middle
of an investigation.

No! That does not work for me.

No. Take a cab.

This serial number is from an early
batch that was shredded and disposed

- of a year and a half ago.
- Obviously it wasn't.

Secret Service Special Agent
Ashley Winter.

Heard NCIS was in the building.
Would've appreciated a call.

- How much more is missing, Donald?
- Um, I don't know.

I just heard about this
but we're gonna get into it.

When we first found the flaw,

we shredded millions of dollars' worth
of the New Benjamins.

It's what we routinely do with
any worn or damaged U.S. Currency.

I'll keep this. It's property
of the Treasury Department.

No, no, I don't think so,
Ashley Winter.

It's evidence
in an NCIS death investigation.

McGEE: Records show
Noel Huffner never gained access

to the Bureau
of Engraving and Printing building.

And we have not been able
to connect him to anyone there.

So how did he get the bill?

Hey, guys,
look who I found down in the lobby.

- Dad. What are you doing here?
- Ziva, show me some love.

Oh.

Dad, I thought you were taking
a cab from the airport to the hotel.

No hotel. I came
to spend Christmas with you.

Gibbs.

- Good to see you, A.D.
- Nice to see you.

- Happy holidays, Mr. DiNozzo.
- Same to you, Tim.

I just... I don't understand.
Where are you staying?

- At your place.
- No.

No, no, no,
because it's not big enough.

Come on, junior, you've got room.
Doesn't he?

Um, I...

I would not know.
I've never been invited.

Is that true?
What's the matter with you?

You're gonna be spending
the holidays together.

- That's so sweet.
- No.

Yes. Of course.
But not in... Because...

Here's the thing. It's a one-bedroom.
It's so small, it's like a Habitrail.

But I'm gonna call the Adams House.
I'm gonna get you a sweet suite.

- My treat.
- No, no, junior. I wouldn't hear of it.

I'll sleep on the couch if I have to.
You do have a couch?

WOMAN [OVER PHONE]:
Adams House.

Come on, Tony.

WOMAN:
Hello?

- Hello?
TONY: Okay.

That'd be great.

So you'll be joining us
Christmas Eve.

Tony started this tradition where we all
watch It's a Wonderful Life together.

Listen, Abby, if you're gonna be there,
I wouldn't miss it.

- Junior.
- Dad.

JIMMY:
I don't get it. Autopsy's done.

Usually Agent Gibbs
has been down here by now.

[ELEVATOR DINGS]

Me thinks you have just spoken
of the devil, Mr. Palmer.

- What do we know?
- Cause of death was a broken neck.

Shattered the C6 and C5 vertebrae.
Almost severed the spinal cord.

He didn't die in that chair, Jethro.
It was definitely a homicide.

Anything else?

Although it didn't kill him,
Mr. Huffner had cirrhosis of the liver.

He was likely a heavy drinker.

All right, here we are.

Junior, not what I expected.

TONY:
That my little... There you go.

Here's some treats.
That's my good girl.

You're getting fat.

My goldfish. Her name's Kate.

- How long have you lived here?
- Almost 12 years.

- You want to wash up before we eat?
- Sure.

Should we cook something here
or go out?

I don't really keep a lot of food
in the house, Dad.

- We'll go out.
- All right, Dad,

you're gonna stay in my room
and I'll hit the couch.

- That's your bed?
- Yeah.

Not much room for play.

Well, when I come home, Dad,
I sleep. Alone.

You're serious?

Dad, this is my sanctuary, okay?

If I'm gonna see a lady,
I will stay at her place.

That way I can leave when I want
and nobody overstays their welcome.

What?

You're missing so many things.

Intimacy. Commitment.

You know, I'll see if we can get
a reservation at the Rooftop Grill.

I hope it's not my fault.

Hey, this is Anthony DiNozzo.

Can I get a table for two
up on the rooftop?

- Abby, what are you doing?
- Lifting prints.

This ornament has been
in my family since the 1890s.

It was
my great-great-grandmother's.

So I'm trying to identify as many
relatives that have handled it as I can.

I already found my
Great Uncle Gooper and Aunt Trixie.

- Heh.
- Ask her how she got a match.

I used to fingerprint
all my relatives at our reunions.

I started when I was 11 years old.

You got anything on Huffner's
computer or his cell?

Uh, not really but...

We have something
much, much better.

Besides Noel Huffner's fingerprint,

I also found someone else's
on this C-note

and reliable old AFIS got us a match.

Gonna give me a name?

Second print belonged
to a Justin Cannady.

And it gets better, boss.

Not only did he work at
the Bureau of Engraving and Printing,

he was fired from there last year.

Huffner was working
with an inside man.

[TONY GROANING]

- Tony, you all right?
- No.

I slept on the couch last night.
I got a kink in my neck.

Kinks in my back. Killing me.
What'd you find out?

Justin Cannady
was not at his apartment.

Secret Service had the place
locked down and would not let us in.

We should've searched the place
ourselves before we told Agent Winter.

She issued a BOLO

but couldn't stop us from questioning
Cannady's neighbors.

No one had seen him in weeks.

You able to connect Cannady
to our dead Navy husband?

Not yet.

So you've just been lying down
on the job while we were gone.

Timmy, remote.

Check out his credit score.

It's lower than McGee's self-esteem
in high school.

Cannady's broke. Unemployment
insurance ran out last month.

The car was repo'd.
He's two months behind on his rent.

- Gibbs.
- Oh, God.

TONY: Where did that
Susan B. Anthony dollar go?

She likes to roll.

Agent Winter,
what are you doing here?

I was summoned to brief you.

Cannady worked at the Bureau of
Engraving and Printing until last June.

- Why did he get fired?
- Poor performance.

Tardiness and being drunk
on the job.

Cannady lost two fingers
in an accident.

Ouch.

He operated a shredding machine.

Assistant Director Linder
had to let him go.

Linder? Isn't that the squirrelly guy
we talked to?

Co-workers heard
from Cannady since?

No.

- Is there money missing?
- No way of telling.

You think Cannady killed
your Navy husband?

Your agents turn up anything
at Cannady's apartment?

No. They tore that place apart.

I'd like to do the same
to Huffner's house.

[CHUCKLES]

No, that's not gonna happen,
Agent Winter.

That's on a Navy base.
You handled Cannady's apartment.

Now, Special Agents DiNozzo
and McGee were just leaving.

It's always a pleasure.

I went to use my credit cards
at the Navy Exchange this morning

and they were both declined.

Because my slug of a husband
drew $5000 against each of the cards.

He forged my signature.

What was he up to?

That's what we're trying to find out.

Well, do you at least know
how he died?

Yeah, he was murdered.

ZIVA: We suspect he was involved
in criminal activity

with a man named Justin Cannady.

- Do you know him?
- Never seen him.

You aware that your husband
had a liver condition?

No. But I'm not surprised.
He drank too much.

And I always knew
where to find him.

- Where was that?
- Gillespie's Saloon on Prescott Street.

So do you know when I'm gonna
be able to get into my house again?

There are things that I have to do.

We'll let you know
when we're finished.

McGEE:
Did you find anything downstairs?

Done in the bedroom.

Yeah, well,
you always have to suspect the wife.

- She was halfway around the world.
- She could've hired someone.

Listen, I need you to crack my back.

- Heh. Go to a chiropractor.
- I don't have time. I need it now.

All right, if I do it this once,
will you stop complaining?

No complaining.

You're a buddy. That's good.

That's good. Okay, let me just relax.

Now just give me a little bounce.

[BONES CRACK
AND TONY GRUNTS]

One more. Ugh. More.

[TONY GRUNTS
THEN PHONE RINGING]

Whose is that?

It's mine. Just put me down real slow.
Real slow.

Thank you. I'm a little light-headed.

TONY [OVER PHONE]:
Hey, Dad.

Where do you keep
your roasting pan?

Dad, I don't have a roasting pan.
I don't cook. What're you doing?

I'm getting ready for a traditional
DiNozzo Christmas dinner.

- Takes days of prep.
- Traditional dinner?

Listen, Dad, can you hold off please.
Because l... We'll talk about it tonight.

[OVER PHONE]
Okay?

You should appreciate your father.
I never had family traditions.

Well, we haven't had them for years.

Traditions kind of died
with my grandfather.

Senior was kind of an absentee parent,
you know.

Long standing customs
kind of disappeared.

Along with a certain
family signet ring.

It was always passed on to the next
generation on the Christmas

of the son's 21st birthday.

I never got it.

Senior claimed it was stolen.

"I was mugged, junior."

But I think he pawned it
during the bad times.

Hey, come over here
and help me with this, will you?

Sure. Unh.
Thank you for that, by the way.

- Much better.
- Yeah.

All right, we're gonna lift this right here.
All right, ready?

One, two, three.

[BOTH GRUNT]

Look at that.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

ZIVA: They don't open till 4.
- Think he's setting up?

Let's check around back.

Hello.
NCIS Special Agents Gibbs and David.

- You got a minute?
- NCIS? What's this about?

Like to talk to you about
Noel Huffner.

Okay. Um, I gotta open in a half
an hour. You mind if we talk inside?

No. I recognize the grill.
It's a '53, right?

It was my old man's,
the original Gillespie. He bought it new.

ZIVA: Huffner's wife said
he's a regular here.

Yeah. And I've talked to her
a couple of times.

She calls here
when he won't answer his cell.

- Problems in the marriage?
GILLESPIE: Ha, ha.

I think I'm gonna invoke
bartender-patron confidentiality.

I don't wanna get
a regular in trouble.

You're not gonna get Huffner
in trouble. He's dead.

Oh.

I guess that's why
I haven't seen him in a while.

He's a young guy. What happened?

- Do you know him?
GILLESPIE: Yeah, Justin.

I don't think
I ever heard his last name before.

- Justin and Huffner know each other?
GILLESPIE: Yeah.

The two sit there at the end of the bar
just about every night,

like Cliff and Norm.

[GILLESPIE CHUCKLES]

I haven't seen Justin
in a while either.

Well, if Justin comes in,
would you give us a call?

Yeah, sure.

Hey, um, you never told me
how Noel died.

He was murdered.

What are you doing?

What does it look like?
Decorating the Christmas tree.

Beautiful, isn't it? Big, full, great.

You moved my piano.

Well, I had to put the tree
in the window.

Oh. What happened in here?

Is this how you're gonna react
to all the hard work I did today?

I baked your favorite
Christmas cookies.

Snickerdoodles.
Used your mother's recipe.

I knew your staying here
was a mistake.

Look, this is my apartment, okay?
This is my space.

Junior, chill. Chill.
Get the Christmas spirit.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

JENNIFER: Tony.
- I'll get it.

No, no, no.

Look, we can't let her know
that we're here.

JENNIFER: I know you're home.
I saw your car around the corner.

- Ignore her.
- Who is she?

She's the bloodhound
from across the hall.

[KNOCK ON DOOR]

TONY SR:
Ooh-ooh. Ooh-ooh. Ooh-ooh-ooh.

- Have you closed the deal on that?
- Dad. Shh.

All right, listen, something's come up
at work. I gotta go.

- Well, when will you be home?
- I don't know.

McGEE: Hikers found the body
just before sunset. There was no ID.

Duck, why'd the LEOs think
it was Cannady?

He's missing
the appropriate two digits.

How long has he been dead?

Oh, I'd venture the same amount
of time as Mr. Huffner.

Oh, great, got my maggots.

[JIMMY CHUCKLES]

Yes, this is shaping up
to be one disgusting week.

[CAR APPROACHING]

Oh, hell. Get the body into the van.

Don't need Agent Winter
snooping around.

DUCKY: Let's go. Chop-chop.
JIMMY: One, two, three.

TONY:
Boss is heading her off.

- Hey, Winter.
- Agent Gibbs.

- What do we got?
- I don't know.

May or may not be Cannady.

Oh. Huh.

Whoa, whoa. I don't think
you're gonna make it that way in heels.

Come on. I'll show you a better way.
Look, it's right there.

WINTER: I think that way's better.
TONY: And, she's clueless.

Agent Winter has no idea
what she's up against.

I shouldn't have done that.

With Cannady dead,
we're looking for another killer.

McGEE:
Noel Huffner had $400,000

of the new uncirculated
$100 bills at his house.

Now, all of the serial numbers
came from a batch

that was supposedly shredded
on May 2nd, 2011.

And Justin Cannady was working

at the Bureau of Engraving
and Printing as a shredder.

- Safe to say he was involved.
- Right. So the questions are

how much more
might have been stolen

and how did they get it out
of such a heavily-secured building?

- That, uh, snickerdoodle?
- Yes.

- Where'd you get them?
- Senior. He bakes.

Who knew? Would you like one?
Ziva?

No. So you think the $10,000

that Huffner borrowed from the credit
cards has anything to do with this?

What if Huffner bought
some of the New Benjamins

at a discount from his bar buddy,
Cannady?

You know,
like $10,000 for 400,000?

Think about it. Cannady couldn't
spend any of the new currency

until it was put into circulation.

Well, he was in debt
and needed money.

Maybe he got antsy

and decided to sell some of
the uncirculated cash to Huffner.

Well, that may all be true
but why are they both dead?

- What am I looking at?
- Fibers, magnified a thousand times.

These eensy-weensy little buggers
were statically attracted

to the shrink wrap on the currency
hidden in Huffner's house.

What are the fibers?

Particles of shredded New Benjies.

The money was heavily guarded
in a vault

until some of it was shredded
for disposal. Watch this.

[ABBY SPEAKS IN FRENCH]

The New Benjies left the building
in the trash.

Yeah, I know it's our first Christmas
as a married couple

and I want it to be special but...
Breena, I gotta go.

Special Agent Winter, isn't it?

Is that the body
I didn't get to see last night?

Does Special Agent Gibbs know
that you're down here?

Have you made
a positive identification yet?

Well, you must understand
how difficult it is to lift a fingerprint

from a body that has been exposed
to the elements for so long a time.

First, uh, you must carefully remove
the dermis.

Then using your own gloved hands,

you spread the dermis
over a corresponding finger,

roll it in the ink and then on paper.

And have you been able to...

I first used the process
when I was in India.

Yes, in the city of Allahabad.

Dr. Mallard, cut the crap.

Tell me what you know.
If I find out you're impeding

- a Secret Service investigation...
GIBBS: This is a NCIS investigation,

and Dr. Mallard is doing exactly
what he needs to be doing.

I thought we were gonna work
with each other, Gibbs.

We are.
Tell her what you know, Duck.

We have a positive identification.
This is Justin Cannady.

His cause of death, cervical fracture,

identical to Mr. Huffner's,
I might add.

- Anything else?
- Yeah. Just got a lead.

We need to talk
to Assistant Director Linder.

Hmm. You're not doing it without me.

Wouldn't think of it.

[CHUCKLES]

It's very unlikely that any of the
currency was removed from the vaults.

I've got $400,000 of your new bills
at NCIS that says you're wrong.

I don't know, okay?

All bills that are removed
from the vaults are shredded,

compacted into bales
and disposed of.

- Where?
- That was a year and a half ago.

We have contracts
with several different landfills.

Okay, well,
we'll narrow it down for you, Donald.

Which one was used
on May 2nd of last year?

Be assured we're gonna be shaking up
things in this department.

Try the Adams County Landfill
in Virginia.

- Thanks, Chris. Hi, Santa.
- Hi, sweetheart.

Tony's out in the field.
Did he know you were coming?

- No. I'm, uh, here to deliver presents.
- Ah.

And this is for you, my dear.

Thank you.

Even though I do not celebrate
Christmas, I love the holiday season.

And I am very glad you and Tony
are going to be together.

I'm not so sure that, uh,
Tony feels that way.

Things not going well?

I think I'm trying to make up for too
many missed Christmases, all at once.

Well, maybe you're trying too hard.

Well, junior's the only family
I have left.

After his mother died,
it just hasn't been the same.

He showed me a picture of her.

She was really beautiful.

Mm. Inside and out.

She was the love of my life, Ziva.

I've never been able to fill up that void.

But God knows I've gotten
into a lot of trouble trying.

[ZIVA CHUCKLES]

- Timmy?
- Stewie?

- Hey, man. How are you?
- Hey, man.

Good to see you.

- You guys know each other?
- We went to school together.

- MIT.
- MIT?

And now you work here?

Last I heard, you were teaching
computational evolutionary biology.

Was. Burned out, man.
But I found my calling. Trash.

Crazy, huh?

You know,
you can learn more about mankind

by what it throws away
than you can in any classroom.

- What're you doing, Timmy?
- I'm a federal agent. NCIS.

Shut up. No way.

Whoa. You're packing a gun.

This was one crazy dude in college.
Really knew how to have a good time.

Shut up. No way.

Did he tell you he was
the school mascot?

No. What was the MIT mascot?

- Really doesn't matter.
- Oh, yes, it does.

- Stewie?
- A beaver.

He was Tim the Beaver
our senior year.

Please tell me you dressed up
like a beaver.

- Of course, he did.
- Yes.

Little teeth just... Remember the?

[SQUEAKING]

Yeah.

Stewart, we're trying to track down
a batch of shredded currency that

came from the Bureau of Engraving
and Printing on May 2nd, 2011.

Let's see, May 2, 2-0-1-1.

Uh, that'd be in G-Sector,
and by now about 30 feet under.

Uh, we had a break-in that night.

Police came to investigate.
Shared a laugh.

What would anyone steal
from a dump?

I think we may have the answer.

Yeah,
I know you're a smart guy, Stewie,

but how do you remember
the exact date of the break-in?

Everybody remembers
where they were that day.

Don't you? It was the night the Navy
SEAL team took out bin Laden.

- Dad?
TONY SR: Junior?

Wow.

This looks fantastic.

What do you think, Kate?

I didn't even know
it could look like this.

Candles and everything.

You know, you were right.
This was a good idea.

Thank you. Hey, listen

- if you want to grab some dinner...
TONY SR: Uh, I'll be right with you.

[CHUCKLES]

Didn't expect you back so soon.

Obviously.

Didn't mean for you to see that.

Oh-ho-ho.

It's forever etched into my retinas.

- Hi, Tony.
- Hi.

Call me later.

[CHUCKLES]

- I'll have to burn the bed now.
- Oh, come on, junior.

- Don't make a big deal out of this.
- Well, you nearly pulled it off.

Yeah, it was almost like old times.

Have to go just a little too far.

What can I say? I'm me.

- I'm not gonna change.
- I know.

I know you're not gonna change.

And I don't know why I was smiling

because there's nothing funny
about this.

Dad, this is my home.
I told you, my rules, okay?

And you broke them.

It was a mistake
having you here for Christmas.

You want me to leave.

Aren't you gonna
open your cookies?

I thought you were not
supposed to open presents

- until Christmas morning.
- Well, snickerdoodles don't count.

[CHUCKLES]

I am worried
about Tony and his father.

- Did he say what happened?
- No.

Just that it was complicated.

GIBBS: Where's DiNozzo?
ZIVA: He's on his way.

- What'd you find out at the landfill?
- They had a break-in.

- Security cameras?
McGEE: No.

Not much there worth protecting.
Boss, do you remember that night?

May 2nd, 2011?

- No.
McGEE: Bet you do.

It's the night Navy SEALs
killed bin Laden.

So we raid Abbottabad and we kill
the most wanted man in the world.

You gotta think Homeland
put the D.C. Area on high alert

- and increased surveillance.
ZIVA: Yeah.

They have to be concerned
about retaliation.

I should get some credit.
I fired Justin last June.

The damage was done
by then, Linder.

And as
Assistant Director of Operations

you're going to be held responsible.

[PHONE RINGS]

- Winter.
- Hey, it's Gibbs.

[OVER PHONE] Secret Service
is under Homeland now.

Let me guess, Agent Gibbs.
You need something.

We need to access archival satellite
surveillance of the D.C. Area.

What's going on?

I'll make some calls.

- I can give you a ride to the airport.
- Ah, no, no.

You're already late for work.

Sorry things didn't work out.

Me too.

Bye, junior.

GIBBS: Can you enhance it?
- It's nighttime, Gibbs.

We can try.

Going in tighter and enhancing.

Sorry I'm late, boss.

- It's your dad?
- Yeah.

Well, we hit a little bump in the road.

Oh, no. But he can't miss
the Christmas Eve party.

I'm sorry, Abs.

- Where is he?
- He is on his way to the airport.

He's going back to New York.

McGEE:
It's a little better.

Well, it looks like a pickup truck but
because of the lack of light and angle,

- I can't get a read on the license plate.
- I don't need it.

[DOOR OPENS]

Hey, NCIS. Merry Christmas.

- You're closing early today, Gillespie.
- I am?

We have a warrant to search
the premises and your residence.

What are you looking for?

Uncirculated, $100 treasury notes.

TONY: Merry Christmas, gentlemen.
Drinks are on the house.

GILLESPIE:
Wait. What are you doing?

GIBBS: This photo was taken
at a Virginia landfill

the night the money went missing.

Looks a lot like your truck.

WINTER: Just your luck
big brother was watching.

The two figures
you and Justin Cannady?

Or did Cannady do it alone because
he was broke and tired of waiting?

He sell some of his share
to Huffner without telling you?

Is that why you killed them?

You were worried that they
were gonna blow it for you?

No, uh... Hey.

- Retired Marine?
GILLESPIE: Yeah, so?

You had access to the base
at Pax River.

We'll get the video
and we'll place you there.

Once we find the money,
it will all fall into place.

Look, we can do this the easy way
or the hard way

but we're not leaving here
without the money.

Oh.

Is she getting warmer, Gillespie?

Oh, that got your attention.

There's a safe in my office closet.

Stealing the money your idea?

It sure as hell wasn't that
drunk Justin Cannady's idea.

Yeah, but you needed him
to pull it off.

Ziva, there's a safe in the closet.

WINTER:
Come on.

We can wrap this up and still have
time for the screening at MTAC.

I'm not really in the mood.

Come on, Tony, it'll cheer you up.

Yeah, I left the DVD
in my apartment anyway.

So go get it.

[SIGHS]

Not only were we able to recover
several million dollars of stolen,

uncirculated currency,

but two murders
were solved in the process.

- Are there any questions?
- Yeah, I got one.

You get any help from NCIS?

ZIVA: Can you believe it?
She didn't mention us.

Ah, it's Christmas, Ziva.

- Let it go. Our gift to her.
ZIVA: Heh.

Yes, the mulled cider is good this year
but it's not quite the same.

I tried to remember
how Tony made it.

Maybe I left something out.

Probably the seven pods
of cardamom.

- Don't even know what that is, Tony.
- Neither do I, to tell you the truth.

Sorry I'm late. I got distracted.

Even when he's not around,
senior can have an effect on me.

Look what I found under the tree.

- Oh. The family ring.
- Mm-hm.

It's beautiful.

That's why he was here.

He wanted to make amends.

And I blew it.

[DOOR BUZZES]

That's Abby.

- May I see it?
- Yeah, it's got a diamond.

Yeah, the origin of signet rings
dates back to ancient Mesopotamia.

Royalty used them to authenticate
and seal documents.

Hope you didn't start the movie yet.

Got something for you, DiNozzo.

Thanks, Gibbs.

Merry Christmas, everyone.

Hey, Dad.

Thanks.

Merry Christmas.

Love you.

I love you, son.
