5x03 - Ex-File
Reynolds's house: kitchen
Jill Reynolds: And he wouldn't stop crying. The whole flight.
Stephanie Flynn: Guess why I was sitting back. Avoid the little prep orders.
Jill Reynolds: Thank you so much for kicking me out Stef. Trent is always working late.
Stephanie Flynn: Been there, hate that.
Jill Reynolds: I figure it's about time that I throw a little fit in case if he's forgotten how I feel about it. Trent? Well, that sounds like he's working really hard, doesn't it? Trent, turn it down. What are you trying to do, wake the dead?
----------
Reynolds's house: office
Stephanie Flynn: Hey, Trent. How's it go...?

NCIS: Squad room
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Good morning... Good morning.
Ziva David: Good morning, Gibbs.
Abigael Scuito: Did you get it?
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: It? Abby?
Abigael Scuito: I put this year's tax refund to good use. I got one for everybody on Team Gibbs.
Anthony DiNozzo:
Luck be a lady tonight
Luck, if you've ever been a lady to begin with.
Luck be a...
Hey, boss. Sorry about that. Sinatra, you got to sing alone. I mean, it's Old Blue Eyes. It's the Chairman of the Board. I'm gonna Rat Pack it up.
Lesson: Becoming an alpha male means that without saying a word you're able to project confidence and sexuality simply through you body language...
Timothy McGee: MIT lecture. Nothing I can't listen to on my own time.
Abigael Scuito: It's the newest version, Gibbs. It's 160 gigabytes. You could download like 40,000 songs.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: I only listen to five, abbs.
Abigael Scuito:5,000?
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: No. Five.
Abigael Scuito:Oh, Gibbs. We really have to broaden your horizons. I could download some of my music for you.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Gibbs.
Abigael Scuito: Like Android Lust or Flesh-Eating Foundation, Green Satan, or Suicide Commando.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Dead Marine.
Abigael Scuito: Never heard of 'em.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Fort Belvoir Army Base. Let's go.
----------
Reynolds's house: Porch
Hollis Mann: Good morning, Jethro.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Busy morning.
----------
Street
Timothy McGee: Dead Marine.
Ziva David: Army base.
Anthony DiNozzo: Her rocks matches his scissors. Which puts the Colonel on top.
----------
Reynolds's house: Porch
Hollis Mann: You work for me on this one, Jethro. It's my army base and my crime scene.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: And my people, my office.
Hollis Mann: They know we're still seeing each other?
----------
Street
Timothy McGee: Is she...?
Ziva David: Still on top?
Timothy McGee: Seeing Gibbs?
Anthony DiNozzo: Same thing. But an excellent question nonetheless, Probie.
----------
Reynolds's house: office
Hollis Mann: Marine Captain Trent Reynolds. Worked for the defense Intelligence Agency on an inter-agency task force. His wife found him last night when she got back from a convention in Charlottesville.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Where's the wife now?
Hollis Mann: Mother's house.
Timothy McGee: How long has he been... Stuck here?
Donald Mallard: Only the dead know the true meaning of patience, Timothy. No more places to go, people to see. Except me, of course... Colonel, Jethro. So... To whom do I report?
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Her.
Hollis Mann: Me.
Anthony DiNozzo: Better get used to that... Spearguns. Pretty cool. Thunderball. Very James Bond... Boss... Ma'am... Colonel.
Hollis Mann: Captain Reynolds was a recreational diver.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Burglary?
Hollis Mann: Well, the back door was jimmied, but the wallet and cash were still on him, and the wife doesn't think that anything's missing. Dr. Mallard, you got anything?
Donald Mallard: You do realize I arrived about a minute ago. The dead speak to me, Colonel, but give the poor man time to catch his breath, so to speak... Time of death: between 7:00 and 9:00 p.m.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Yeah, Gibbs.
Hollis Mann: Tony, review the witness statements.
Anthony DiNozzo: Yes, boss. Ma'am... Colonel.
Hollis Mann: Ziva...
Ziva David: I will check Captain Reynolds' phone and bank records.
Hollis Mann: Agent McGee, see if you can pull some prints off the back door.
Timothy McGee: Yes, ma'am.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Do you know a Major Sweigart?
----------
NCIS: Director's office
Jennifer Shepard: Major Sweigart was Captain Reynolds' superior at Defense Intelligence. He understands the Army CID and NCIS will be working hand in hand on this case. I mean... Side by side. Cooperatively.
Eric Sweigart: You've taken Captain Reynolds' laptop. I want it back.
Hollis Mann: That's evidence, Major.
Eric Sweigart: DIA deals with highly classified materials, ma'am.
Hollis Mann: And we have top secret clearance.
Eric Sweigart: I'm talking about special access programs which go well beyond your clearance.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Black ops?
Jennifer Shepard: Major Sweigart, these are your options, either read in our forensic scientist to your special acces programs or send someone who can oversee her work.
Eric Sweigart: Send someone over from Cyber.
Joseph Marsden: Yes, sir.
Hollis Mann: Any thoughts on who might have wanted to kill Captain Reynolds?
Eric Sweigart: He got along with everyone at work.
Hollis Mann: What about his personal life?
Eric Sweigart: Other than the usual command dinners I didn't really know Capitain Reynolds on a personal basis.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: You, Lieutenant?
Joseph Marsden: We played some pickup basketball together. That's about it. I think he spent his free time with his wife.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Why?
Joseph Marsden: Because he was always rushing home to be with her.
----------
NCIS: Elevator
Anthony DiNozzo: Crash and burn... Only a matter of time.
Ziva David: What?
Anthony DiNozzo: Not a what... A whom. Colonel Mann, Gibbs, Army-Navy joint operation.
Ziva David: It could last a lifetime.
Anthony DiNozzo: Behind the torture techniques and the contract killings, Ziva, you're really just a...
Ziva David: A whom?
Anthony DiNozzo: What? Whom? Not a whom... It's more... It's a what.
Ziva David: A what then?
Anthony DiNozzo: What then? What? What then? I think...
----------
NCIS: Squad room
Ziva David: I'm still just a what?
Fred Rinnert: A girl... Abby Sciuto. I was sent here to check in so I could see her.
Anthony DiNozzo: Probie.
Fred Rinnert: Fred Rinnert, DIA. That's Defense Intelligence Agency. I was sent he to keep track of a laptop of ours.
Timothy McGee: Laptop is down in the lab.
Fred Rinnert: I'm here to make sure Ms. Sciuto doesn't uncover any super-duper, secret spook stuff.
Timothy McGee: Meaning, you will be scrutinizing her every move?
Fred Rinnert: Exactly.
----------
NCIS: Elevator
Timothy McGee: I gotta warn you, Abby doesn't work well with people looking over her shoulder.
Fred Rinnert: We'll do fine. I'm a people person.
----------
NCIS: Abby's lab
Abigael Scuito: Make him go away, McGee.
Timothy McGee: Abby, I can't.
Abigael Scuito: Look at him. I feel blocked. I can't work when I'm blocked.
Timothy McGee: Well, then just block him out.
Abigael Scuito: What?
Timothy McGee: You block him out. He's not there.
Abigael Scuito: He's not there. He's still there.
Timothy McGee: Close your eyes, open them, and imagine him gone.
Abigael Scuito: Didn't work.
Timothy McGee: Try it again.
Abigael Scuito: He's not there. He's not there... Still not working, McGee. McGee?
----------
NCIS: Squad room
Hollis Mann: Try the return key.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: This one?
Hollis Mann: Here, let me.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: No, I got it.
Hollis Mann: No, I don't think you do.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: I got it.
Hollis Mann: Sometimes it takes a soft touch, okay... There. Delete this search?
Timothy McGee: No. No.
Hollis Mann: Prints from Reynolds'back door scored a match, but your computer's a little...
Timothy McGee: It's linked to Abby's lab. It's perfectly fine, Colonel.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Which is more than can be said for Major Sweigart.
----------
Major Sweigart's office
Eric Sweigart: I dropped off some documents to Captain Reynolds a couple of weeks ago.
Hollis Mann: And you left via the back door?
Eric Sweigart: His wife was having friends around. I didn't want to disturb them.
Hollis Mann: Mrs. Reynolds can verify that you were at the house?
Eric Sweigart: Don't know. Guess you'll have to ask her, ma'am.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Means you saw what was hanging in his office.
Eric Sweigart: Sorry.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Knew how to use it. You look pretty handy with that speargun.
Hollis Mann: Well, picture's worth a thousand words to a jury.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Yeah, or just one: Guilty.
Eric Sweigart: Lots of guys dive. Look, Colonel, I was with someone last night. A date.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: She's got a name?
Eric Sweigart: We went to dinner.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Name.
Eric Sweigart: Stephanie Flynn.
Hollis Mann: The woman who was with Mrs. Reynolds when she found him dead?
Eric Sweigart: That's right.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Stephanie Bronwyn Flynn?
Eric Sweigart: Yeah.
Hollis Mann: You know her?
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: I was married to her.
----------
NCIS: Director's office
Hollis Mann: We have a little issue.
Jennifer Shepard: We?
Hollis Mann: You, you want to tell her, Agent Gibbs?
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: No, not particularly.
Jennifer Shepard: Is this issue going to involve lawyers?
Hollis Mann: It already did... It's his ex-wife. She's a material witness.
Jennifer Shepard: And which ex would that be?
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Stephanie.
Jennifer Shepard: What number is she again? Second?
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Third.
Jennifer Shepard: Oh, right. You lived in Europe with her for a while, Frankfurt.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Moscow.
Jennifer Shepard: Two years?
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: One.
Jennifer Shepard: Well, it's hard to live in Moscow. With anyone. Do you think he should divorce himself from this case, Colonel Mann?
Hollis Mann: No, ma'am. No.
Jennifer Shepard: Nor do I. I don't see a problem if you conduct the interview. Do you have a problem with Colonel Mann interviewing your ex-wife, Agent Gibbs?
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Do I have a choice?
Hollis Mann: No.
Jennifer Shepard: No... Problem solved.
----------
NCIS: Interrogation room
Hollis Mann: What time did Major Sweigart arrive at your appartment?
Stephanie Flynn: About 6:30.
Hollis Mann: And leave?
Stephanie Flynn: About 10:00... Where's Gibbs? I know you know he's my ex.
Hollis Mann: He's busy.
Stephanie Flynn: Some things never change.
----------
NCIS: Observation room
Anthony DiNozzo: Who do you think is prettier? Ex-wife number three or future ex-wife number four?
Ziva David: Colonel Mann is at a disadvantage because of her uniform... Tell me you are not trying to imagine her without her uniform, Tony.
----------
NCIS: Interrogation room
Hollis Mann: How long have you known Agent Gibbs... Major Sweigart?
Stephanie Flynn: Eight months. Known Gibbs longer.
Hollis Mann: Wedding bells?
Stephanie Flynn: I know how this works. You're implying because I love Eric, I'm lying for him.
Hollis Mann: Are you?
Stephanie Flynn: He's watching, isn't he? If you're going to have me interrogated, Jethro, at least do it yourself.
----------
NCIS: Observation room
Stephanie Flynn: Come on. You never could talk to me, could you? Well, that was then, this is now, so just... Get the hell in here!
Anthony DiNozzo: Feisty... In an attractive kind of way. Got zip at Fort Belvoir, boss.
Ziva David: Captain Reynolds got along with everyone.
Anthony DiNozzo: No one heard a thing last night... I'm gonna go check those phone records.
Ziva David: I am going to help him.
----------
Abby's lab
Fred Rinnert: Interesting. So you work off and image of Captain Reynolds hard drive instead of the actual laptop... Sorry.
Abigael Scuito: What are you doing?
Fred Rinnert: Imagining you talking to me.
Abigael Scuito: The laptop is evidence. It can't be touched, so we copy the hard drive and put the laptop back in the evidence locker... Any other questions?
Fred Rinnert: No. Except did you see that sniffer?
Abigael Scuito: Sniffer?
Fred Rinnert: Yeah, just back up a bit... Right there. I've seen one of these. Looks like a DLL file, right?
Abigael Scuito: It is a DLL file.
Fred Rinnert: That's what it wants you to think. It's actually an executable file. It sniffs out stuff when you're not looking.
Abigael Scuito: So is this file classified?
Fred Rinnert: It's yours, free and clear.
Abigael Scuito: So... Captain Reynolds was a hacker.
----------
NCIS: Interrogation room
Stephanie Flynn: Does it really matter, what I made for dinner? Chicken piccata, slightly overdone, steamed vegetables, slightly underdone, served with a Chardonnay that was just right.
Hollis Mann: Did he appear at all agitated?
Stephanie Flynn: No. You having fun, Jethro?
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Still decaf?
Stephanie Flynn: We need to talk.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: The colonel's conducting the interview.
Hollis Mann: I'm done.
Stephanie Flynn: Why are you targeting my boyfriend? You couldn't make me happy, so you won't let me be happy with someone else, is that it?
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: No.
Stephanie Flynn: Then what are you doing?
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: What I've always had to do, Stephanie, my job.
Stephanie Flynn: Can we at least finish one conversation?
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: I'm starting to feel like I'm married.
Stephanie Flynn: That's funny. I never felt like we were ever married. Look, Eric didn't do this and I don't know what evidence you've got that makes you think he did, but you're wrong. Just don't screw this up for me, Jethro.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: It's not about you.
Stephanie Flynn: Well, it was never about me, was it?
Timothy McGee: Boss? Abby needs to see us.
Hollis Mann: I'm just going to...
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: I'm happy you found somebody. I'll send an agent down to escort you out.
----------
NCIS: hallway
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Cyber guy here yet?
Timothy McGee: Yeah, in with Abby... She'll be fine.
----------
NCIS: Abby's lab
Abigael Scuito: Get out!
Fred Rinnert: I'm serious.
Abigael Scuito: So... The dead are strung up on a spit and roasted?
Fred Rinnert: Yeah, and then the tribe serves up the drippings.
Abigael Scuito: So gross. And you saw this?
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Saw what, Abs?
Abigael Scuito: A death ritual that would make your hair stand up on end. Maybe not your hair but definitely, say, McGee's hair.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: What about our ritual? Solving crimes.
Abigael Scuito: Fred found a sniffer.
Timothy McGee: It's a keystroke logger used by hackers to find passwords.
Abigael Scuito: And you're never going to guess whose computer Captain Reynolds was hacking into. Well, just 'cause I said you'd never guess doesn't mean you shouldn't try.
Timothy McGee: Abby.
Abigael Scuito: Major Eric Sweigart.
Hollis Mann: Him again.
Timothy McGee: What was Reynolds accessing?
Abigael Scuito: Sweigart's emails, which I still have to manually cut and paste.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Do it, Abs.
Abigael Scuito: Well, I found something else. Captain Reynolds opened a file-share application at 7:30 last night.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: What's a file-share...
Timothy McGee: File-share application. You share music, videos, other files, put 'em on the Internet, anyone who wants to can copy 'em.
Hollis Mann: 7:30 is about the time of death.
Abigael Scuito: But what's weird is... The song. Drumroll, please... "The Elements" song.
Hollis Mann: A song about the weather?
Timothy McGee: No, no, no, it recites all the elements. It's a comic ditty written by a Harvard math professor in the late 50s. It's really catchy... Well, Abby, maybe if you play it, you'll...
Singer: There's antimony, arsenic, aluminum, seleniuma, and hydrogen and oxygen and nitrogen and rhenium, and nickel, neodymium, neptunium, germanium, and iron, americium, ruthenium, uranium, europium, zirconium, lutetium, vanadium. And lanthanum and osmium and astatine and radium. And gold and protactinium, and indium and gallium.
Hollis Mann: He has access to the nation's secrets and he's file-sharing that song just before he dies? Why?
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Abby's going to find out.
Abigael Scuito: Yes, because neither rain nor sleet nor any class of simple atomic substance will keep me from my appointed duty, sir. Sweet.
Fred Rinnert: Sweet.
Timothy McGee: You know, when I was in the sixthrade I made a complete periodic table out of licorice and Junior Mints.
Fred Rinnert: Cool.
Abigael Scuito: Yeah, that's... Impressive, McGee.
----------
NCIS: Autopsy room
Donald Mallard: That must have been extremely awkward... For all concerned.
Hollis Mann: So what happened between them?
Donald Mallard: You know, a man's heart often tells us how he lived. Sometimes... It might even tell us how he died, but contrary to popular myth, it never tells us how he loved.
Hollis Mann: I'm sorry. I did not mean to put you on the spot.
Donald Mallard: You won't find a better man than Jethro. He's a fircely loyal colleague and friend, but he does come with his challenges.
Hollis Mann: Tell me about it. There's a part of him I... I don't know, I mean, he just shuts me out. I thought maybe it was Stephanie or their marriage...
Donald Mallard: They weren't married long.
Hollis Mann: Fourteen months... Top of my class in Interrogation.
Donald Mallard: Remind me to ask for a highly qualified lawyer should I ever be interrogated by you.
Hollis Mann: I don't want to be another one of his mistakes, Ducky. I know he's been married three time... More than three time?
Donald Mallard: Perhaps I should get that lawyer now. Divorced three times, married four.
Hollis Mann: Jethro's married?
Donald Mallard: Heavens no.
Hollis Mann: Well, then, I don't...
Donald Mallard: His first wife, along with his only child.
Hollis Mann: Oh, my God... He named the boat "Kelly."
Donald Mallard: After his daughter. She was eight-years-old.
Hollis Mann: What happened?
Donald Mallard: I think you should ask Jethro that... His wife witnessed a murder. She identified the shooter. He came after her.
Hollis Mann: What was her name?
Donald Mallard: Shannon.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Results, Duck?
Donald Mallard: Captain Reynolds' cause of death was relatively straight forward, but I did find something else. On his cheeks, we found a residue of prolactin and lysozyme... Tears, Jethro. Captain Reynolds was crying when he died.
Anthony DiNozzo: Checked Reynold's phone records, boss. Colonel, ma'am... I drew a blank.
Ziva David: So we checked Major Sweigart'phone records. Ten calls in the last three days to the same person... A woman.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Stephanie?
Anthony DiNozzo: No... Jill, Captain Reynolds' wife.
----------
NCIS: Squad room
Hollis Mann: The husband, the wife and the lover. All the trademarks of a classic love triangle.
Anthony DiNozzo: You forgot the lover's lover, which would make it technically, I think, a lovers quadrangle.
Ziva David: Or it could be a ring. Abby uncovered suspicious activity on the victim's laptop. And since Captain Reynolds had access to highly classified defense secrets, we cannot rule out a spy ring.
Timothy McGee: And we know that Major Sweigart was with your ex... With... Stephanie Flynn.
Anthony DiNozzo: And Mrs. Reynolds was at a pharmaceutical convention in Charlottesville.
Hollis Mann: Charlottesville.
Anthony DiNozzo: Yes, Charlottesville. Great minds think alike, McGee.
Timothy McGee: Fort Belvoir, where Reynolds died, is here. Charlottesville is here, 104 miles.
Anthony DiNozzo: Two hour drive.
Timothy McGee: Close enough for Jill Reynolds to drive home, kill her husband, drive back to Charlottesville, and fly home again to discover him dead with a witness present.
Ziva David: That does not mean she did it.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: It doesn't mean she didn't do it.
Hollis Mann: Motive?
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: DiNozzo, check...
Anthony DiNozzo: Life insurance. Did it, 400 grand from the military, another quarter mil from a private carrier, a beneficiary: Jill Reynolds.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: The crime scene just became our prime suspect's house.
Hollis Mann: Get a warrant.
Ziva David: Mrs. Reynolds? We'll bring her in.
----------
NCIS: Abby's lab
Singer: There's sulfur, californium, and fermium, berkelium, and also mendelevium, einsteinium, noelium and argon, krypton, neon, radon, xenon, zinc and rhodium. And chlorine, carbon, cobalt, copper, tungsten, tin and sodium...
Abigael Scuito: You thinking what I'm thinking?
Fred Rinnert: I hope so.
Abigael Scuito: Steganography.
Fred Rinnert: Not even close.
Abigael Scuito: If the song has a meaning, then the meaning is probably hidden inside a file. What's the most sophisticated way to hide a file in a computer?
Fred Rinnert: Steganography.
Abigael Scuito: Now you're thinking what I'm thinking.
Fred Rinnert: Yeah, but I was enjoying thinking what I was thinking before you asked me what I was thinking.
Abigael Scuito: Would I have enjoyed what you were thinking?
Fred Rinnert: Oh, yeah.
Abigael Scuito: Don't answer that. I developed a program to search for any steganography algorithm. If there is a stego file on there, this puppy... Will find it.
Fred Rinnert: You're good.
Abigael Scuito: Please.
Fred Rinnert: Hey! You ever feel like you could use some extra help around here?
Abigael Scuito: I work like 16 hours a day.
Fred Rinnert: That's like two eight-hour days stuck together.
Abigael Scuito: Yup. It's probably not in the budget, and... I'm kind of a control freak.
Fred Rinnert: I work for two control freaks, neither of whom are as smart as you.
Abigael Scuito: I'm not that smart.
Fred Rinnert:Please.
Abigael Scuito: I'm not... I'm not.
Fred Rinnert: Password cracker?
Abigael Scuito: Password cracker.

NCIS: Elevator
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: You're going to tell me?
Hollis Mann: Tell you what?
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: What's bugging you.
Hollis Mann: How long have we been together?
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Weeks.
Hollis Mann: Months.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Meaning many weeks.
Hollis Mann: We've shared a lot, right?
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Yeah.
Hollis Mann: Divorced three times.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: I told you that.
Hollis Mann: Married four. You never told me about your first wife, Shannon. Or that you had a daughter, Kelly. Why, Jethro?
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: They're dead. End of story... I've put it behind me.
Hollis Mann: Have you? Jethro...
----------
NCIS: Squad room
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Anything from those ATMs in Charlottesville?
Timothy McGee: Not yet, boss... I was thinking, boss. Now, you know that Abby and I have solved a lot of computer problems together, and it seems to me that, you know, three heads are better than two. And seeing as how the period table is, you know, in my wheelhouse... It seems... I was thinking it'd probably be best if I stay here, focus on my job...
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: That's a good call.
Timothy McGee: Abby focus on hers... I tell you, Colonel, guys like Fred... They're a dime a dozen at MIT. Charming, funny, successful, good-looking.
Hollis Mann: Women see right through that.
Timothy McGee: Exactly.

Reynolds's house: porch
Anthony DiNozzo: Excuse us there. NCIS.
Ziva David: We are looking for Jill Reynolds.
Joseph Marsden: She's in the back.
Anthony DiNozzo: You a friend?
Joseph Marsden: Lieutenant Marsden. Command sent me out to go over Captain Reynolds'death benefits with her.
Ziva David: Quite the waterfall.
Anthony DiNozzo: She means windfall.
Joseph Marsden: If you think money compensates for the loss of a loved one.
Anthony DiNozzo: No, I'm sure it doesn't.
Joseph Marsden: Excuse me.

NCIS: Abby's lab
Abigael Scuito: Give it to me, baby, come on. Don't make me beg... Hey, McGee.
Timothy McGee: Everything okay?
Abigael Scuito: I'm just running a password cracker.
Timothy McGee: I brought you a... Caf-Pow!
Abigael Scuito: This is a monumental task, McGee. The keyboard doesn't just have numbers, it has the whole alphabet.
Fred Rinnert: Could be case-sensitive.
Abigael Scuito: Or you could take 1000 years to go through all the possible permutations.
Timothy McGee: You know, the more complicated the password, the bigger the need to keep some record of it.
Fred Rinnert: Nice try, McGee, but we already looked for it in the copy of his hard drive.
Abigael Scuito: But not in the actual laptop. It could be hidden in a secret partition of RAM. That's brilliant! I'm gonna go get the laptop out of the evidence locker.
Fred Rinnert: These have quite a kick, don't they?
Timothy McGee: I down six or seven of these bad boys a day.
----------
NCIS: Director's office
Stephanie Flynn: There's a serious conflict here. Jethro shouldn't be leading this investigation.
Jennifer Shepard: He's not. Colonel Mann is. You pick up that look from Gibbs?
Stephanie Flynn: I picked up a lot of bad habits from Gibbs.
Jennifer Shepard: I understand your concern.
Stephanie Flynn: Then take him off the case.
Jennifer Shepard: I've known Agent Gibbs a long time. I trust and respect his judgment.
Stephanie Flynn: My boy friend didn't kill anyone.
Jennifer Shepard: Then I'm sure the investigation will bear that out.
Stephanie Flynn: Maybe not before damaging Eric's military career.
Jennifer Shepard: If Major Sweigart wasn't involved, I'll personally see to it that he suffers no career repercussions.
Stephanie Flynn: Thank you. Can I ask you a personal question? I don't quite know how to put this, but I always had the feeling that before our marriage, there was something between you and Jethro.
Jennifer Shepard: It has always been strictly professional between us.
----------
NCIS: Squad room
Ziva David: She's got something to hide. Why else would she clean so thoroughly?
Anthony DiNozzo: Train wreck... I want to look away, but I can't.
Jennifer Shepard: Agent Gibbs?
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Director.
Jennifer Shepard: Colonel, I was just reassuring Gibbs's... Your witness, that Agent Gibbs could separate himself from the personal aspects of this investigation.
Hollis Mann: Well, I'll monitor him, closely, Director.
Jennifer Shepard: I'm sure you will.
Stephanie Flynn: Is that the look you're talking about?
Jennifer Shepard: Yeah, that's it.
Hollis Mann: Yup, we've all seen that one.
Jennifer Shepard: Miss Flynn was just leaving, unless you need her for something.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: No. She can go home.
Hollis Mann: For now.
----------
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: You find anything?
Anthony DiNozzo: I bet you've never been happier to see me. It was clean.
Ziva David: Spotless.
Anthony DiNozzo: She's like that professional cleaner in Pulp Fiction. We found a partial print in the kitchen near the office.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Run it.
Anthony DiNozzo: I mean, with only, like, a squiggle on a little loop. We don't even know which finger.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Only ten possibilities, DiNozzo.
Anthony DiNozzo: Well, no. There's one point, there's ten fingers. You know, that's thousands of... On it... Train wreck.

NCIS: Interrogation room
Jill Reynolds: Why have you kept me waiting?
Hollis Mann: Give you time to think.
Jill Reynolds: I don't... Want to think. I want to clean.
Hollis Mann: We know about your affair with Major Sweigart.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Your husband knew, too.
Jill Reynolds: He didn't.
Hollis Mann: He hacked into Major Sweigart's e-mails. Read everything you ever wrote to each other.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: He was crying when he died.
Hollis Mann: We also know about the life insurance.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: 650,000 reasons not to want a divorce.
Jill Reynolds: I don't care about the money... Wait. You think that... Look, my marriage wasn't good, but I would never, ever... I told you, I was at a conference in Charlottesville. All you have to do is check.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: We did.
Jill Reynolds: I signed in.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: And you slipped out.
Hollis Mann: Killed your husband, drove back.
Jill Reynolds: No!
Hollis Mann: You want to clean? You clean your conscience, you tell the truth.
Jill Reynolds: I am!
Hollis Mann: You're not!
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: What?
Timothy McGee: Boss, I got something you need to see.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: We'll be right there.

Timothy McGee: I've been watching the footage of ATMs surrounding the pharmaceutical convention in Charlottesville on the day Captain Reynolds died. As you can see, it's time-stamped.
Anthony DiNozzo: Check out the brunette.
Timothy McGee: No. In the background rounding the corner... Wait for it... There!
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Jill Reynolds. 8:05.
Timothy McGee: Can't be two places at once.
Hollis Mann: She's clean... In more ways than one.
----------
Ziva David: Maybe she hired a contract killer.
Hollis Mann: What about the partial prints in Reynold's kitchen?
Timothy McGee: Came up with 80,000 potential hits. I know. Trying to narrow it down to people who might have had access to the Army base.
Anthony DiNozzo: Have we given up on Major Sweigart?
Ziva David: He has an alibi.
Hollis Mann: From someone who thinks he's her future husband.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Stephanie wouldn't lie.
Hollis Mann: Are you sure? Well, I'm not. I mean, she finds out that her boyfriend was having an affair with her best friend, she might just change her story. Bring her in for another interview.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Wait.
Hollis Mann: I said bring her in.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: I'd said wait.
Anthony DiNozzo: This never turns out well for the kids.
Hollis Mann: Can you be objective here? Because if you can't, you're no good to me... If this wasn't your ex, what would your gut be saying right now? It would be saying bring her in and break her... Maybe she's lying to protect her boyfriend. Maybe it's worse. What if Stephanie knew about the affair?
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: She'd walk.
Hollis Mann: Okay, then, let's talk about motive. Maybe she wants to frame Jill for being the bitch who stole her boyfriend. Or maybe Major Sweigart for cheating on her.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: You don't know Stephanie.
Hollis Mann: But I do know my job.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: DiNozzo.
Anthony DiNozzo: Here I am, boss.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Call her. Tell her to come in. I need to talk with her.
Anthony DiNozzo: Voicemail... Same thing... This is Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo of NCIS for Stephanie Flynn... As of when? Thank you... Stephanie quit her job this morning.

NCIS: Abby's lab
Fred Rinnert: Pow!
Abigael Scuito: Another one? I found a program on Captain Reynolds' boot-up sequence. Guess what it does.
Fred Rinnert: Judging by your expression, something good.
Abigael Scuito: It creates the password when you turn the computer on, and it deletes it when you turn it off.
Fred Rinnert: Hidden in RAM. You know what? If I weren't so irrationally confident, I might actually be intimidated by you.
Abigael Scuito: Please. Okay, so it's 30 characters. That's too many for a password cracker... Here we go.
Fred Rinnert: That was really anticlimactic.
Abigael Scuito: Okay, so... The file extension indicates it's an audio plug-in file... Last accessed... At 7:31 p. m. on Monday.
Fred Rinnert: That's the same time Captain Reynolds uploaded the song.
Abigael Scuito: That's the same time he died, it give or take a chorus. Let's see what the plug-in does with the song.
Singer: Selenium... Uranium... Gallium... Phosphorus... Potassium... Polonium... Curium... Sodium.
Fred Rinnert: The plug-in is just a filter... It highlights pieces of the song.
Abigael Scuito: It's a code.
Fred Rinnert: It's not a code. It's just words, Abby.
Abigael Scuito: It's not just words, Fred. It's numbers. Every element has a corresponding number on the periodic table. Selenium is 34, uranium 92, and gallium 31.
Fred Rinnert: Abby's office... Yeah. She's right here. I could... Okay. No. I'll tell her, sir... Your boss wants to see you.
Abigael Scuito: Gibbs... Has this uncanny ability to know when I found something. I don't even know what I found yet.
Fred Rinnert: Well, he didn't seem happy.
Abigael Scuito: He never does, even when he is happy. And I doubt he's happy right now. But, you know, I am his favorite, so he's usually pretty good with me.
Fred Rinnert: Even when you keep him waiting?
Abigael Scuito: I'll be right back.
Fred Rinnert: Hurry up.

NCIS: Squad room
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Try her again.
Abigael Scuito: I'm here, Gibbs.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Abby.
Abigael Scuito: Wait... "Selenium, uranium, gallium, phosphorus. Potassium, polonium, curium and sodium." It's the song, Gibbs! There was a program on Captain Reynolds' laptop that highlighted these elements. The periodic table has a number associated with each one. The numbers mean something, I just don't know what yet. Like 34 could be three-four... 92 could be nine-two.
Hollis Mann: Could be a GPS coordinate.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Or a bank account.
Abigael Scuito: I just need to know how you knew that I found something.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: I didn't, Abby.
Anthony DiNozzo: Stephanie's still not answering.
Abigael Scuito: Well, why did you call me?
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: I didn't.
Abigael Scuito: Fred said you did.
Timothy McGee: Boss, guess who was one the 88,000 hits from the crime scene fingerprints.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Fred?
Timothy McGee: You guessed.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Where is he?
Abigael Scuito: In my lab.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: With evidence?
Abigael Scuito: With the laptop!
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Find out what this means, McGee.
----------
NCIS: Abby's lab
Hollis Mann: Hey, going somewhere?
Fred Rinnert: Home.
Abigael Scuito: Tell me you didn't.
Fred Rinnert: Didn't what? You know, I think we had a power surge.
Abigael Scuito: They're wiped clean.
Hollis Mann: The original laptop?
Abigael Scuito: I did not leave this open! You wiped it, too!
Fred Rinnert: Abby, I'm hurt! You think I did this?
Abigael Scuito: Gibbs, can I hit him?
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: No.
Fred Rinnert: Look, anybody could have done it. The lab was left unattended, right, Abby? Unless you're gonna arrest me, I've got a date with my Pilates instructor.
----------
NCIS: hallway
Fred Rinnert: Hey, what are you doing?
Abigael Scuito: Last number dialed, my lab.
Fred Rinnert: Yeah, so, could've missed that one.
Abigael Scuito: The last e-mail. Confirmed for a flight on Thai Air... Why did you erase the hard drives?
Fred Rinnert: I didn't.
Hollis Mann: What do the numbers mean?
Fred Rinnert: Not a clue.
----------
NCIS: elevator
Hollis Mann: DIA deals with classified material. You found a foreign buyer?
Fred Rinnert: You have to go up, in order to go down, right?
Abigael Scuito: Can I hit him now, Gibbs?
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: No.
Hollis Mann: You think Reynolds could have set up that computer code?
Abigael Scuito: Only an expert could have done it.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Reynolds had access to the secrets, you knew how to steal them.
Hollis Mann: Are we gonna find some money stashed away?
Fred Rinnert: If you've got the evidence, arrest me. If not... Have a nice day.
----------
NCIS: Squad room
Ziva David: Lieutenant Marsden just confirmed that our friend here volunteered to oversee Abby's work on the laptop.
Hollis Mann: Why didn't you wipe the hard drive after you killed him?
Abigael Scuito: He didn't think anyone was smart enough to find the code, until it was sent to me.
Fred Rinnert: I didn't kill anyone.
Hollis Mann: Either Reynolds wouldn't split the money with you or you got greedy.
Abigael Scuito: Think of the slimiest thing and that's what he did!
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Come on, McGee.
Fred Rinnert: Hey, I know my rights.
Timothy McGee: Boss, I got it. Numbers are an offshore account in the names of both Captain Reynolds and Fred Rinnert. One half-million dollars transferred into the account from a bank in Beirut at 7:30 the night Reynolds died. It was cleaned out two hours later.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: So, it was greed?
Hollis Mann: DiNozzo.
Anthony DiNozzo: It's me. My acting boss says you ain't going anywhere.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: What'd you sell and who'd you sell it to?
Fred Rinnert: Maybe if you cut me a deal, I'll tell you.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Abby.
Timothy McGee: Sweet.

Gibb's house: basement
Hollis Mann: Why isn't that a romantic night on the town always turns into a less than romantic night in your basement, sanding... Your boat.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Hello, Stephanie.
Stephanie Flynn: Still not locking your front door, Jethro... Sweet... I just came by to... Give you these. I found them in a drawer... About six years ago.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: I thought I'd lost them.
Hollis Mann: I'm gonna... Wait for you upstairs.
Stephanie Flynn: No... It's okay. I'm... I'm not staying. So...
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: I'll walk you out.
Stephanie Flynn: Good luck.
Hollis Mann: Thanks.

Street
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Why'd you quit your job?
Stephanie Flynn: I'm moving to Philadelphia... My parents are getting old. And, Shelley had a baby.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: Another one?
Stephanie Flynn: She's a baby factory. It's a good thing someone in my family is. I guess I'm gonna be that... Doting aunt that still looks great in her bikini... Eric and I split up... He told me about his... Affair... With Jill. You knew... After all my ranting in your office, you missed a perfect opportunity to throw that in my face.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: I wouldn't do that to you.
Stephanie Flynn: No, you wouldn't... It just never seems to work out for me, Jethro.
Leroy Jehtro Gibbs: I'm sorry... Me. Us. Not your fault.
Stephanie Flynn: Wasn't anybody's fault... We'll always have Moscow.
----------
Gibb's house: basement
Hollis Mann: Jethro... You never cease to surprise me... Music.
Kelly: What do you think, daddy?! I came in second place!
Shannon: You would have been proud of her, Jethro.
Kelly: I miss you, daddy! When you get home, I'll be really good at it, I promise. I love you.
Shannon: A kiss for daddy.
Kelly: I love you, daddy... Love you.
Shannon: Bye, Jethro. We miss you.
