Anthony DiNozzo: Miss anything, McLovin?
Timothy McGee: Just this It's from a woman named Melinda She had to postpone.
Anthony DiNozzo: Postpone what?
Timothy McGee: I don't know. Figured that you'd figure it out.
Anthony DiNozzo: How did she sound?
Timothy McGee: How did she sound?
Anthony DiNozzo: I ask the question, you give the answer How did she sound?
Timothy McGee: I don't know, Tony.
Anthony DiNozzo: You don't know... Well, why don't you try using your words, Mr Gem City? Devastated? Despondent?
Ziva David: Delighted.
Anthony DiNozzo: All right What's her number, McDetail?
Timothy McGee: She didn't leave one.
Anthony DiNozzo: It's customary to get a name, a number and a complete message. This is not a complete message. This is a complete mess... Melinda.
Ziva David: How many Melindas do you have in that thing?
Anthony DiNozzo: I don't know It could have been the girl I talked to at the gym.
Ziva David: You don't go to the gym.
Anthony DiNozzo: Maybe it was the girl I talked to at the dog park.
Timothy McGee: You don't have a dog.
Anthony DiNozzo: Oh, it could have been that girl I met at the concession stand. While my date was in the bathroom.
Ziva David: You need a secretary.
Timothy McGee: Or a therapist.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Or both. Shots fired in Liberty. Heights Saddle it up.
Ziva David: If we were called every time shots were fired at Liberty Heights.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Yeah, well, Metro responded. They found a dead Marine.
----------
Liberty Heights: Projects
Timothy McGee: Victim is Private First Class Emilio Salazar. Joined the Marines four months ago. Scheduled for deployment next week.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Ducky?
Timothy McGee: Stuck in traffic Should be here in about 20 minutes.
Ziva David: Nine millimeter shells. Possibly two guns. And based on the level of penetration on that wall. I would say 357... No shells, which means a revolver.
Anthony DiNozzo: One shooter, three weapons.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: There's two sets of footprints.
Anthony DiNozzo: Shooter could have had a spotter.
Ziva David: Or a lookout.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Or a witness. Hey, DiNozzo... McGee.
Timothy McGee: New Marine regulations don't allow for exposed ink. He had his tat removed, laser. Looks like"P".
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: It looks like this.
Timothy McGee: PCS. All right, I'll check with Metro's gang unit.
Anthony DiNozzo: Bullets hit the skylight killing our Marine. Sending him on a very short bungee plunge.
Ziva David: But why shoot your hostage from down here?
Anthony DiNozzo: Maybe they were sending a message. The kind McGee takes-cryptic, hard to decipher.
----------
Liberty Heights: Projects, roof
Ziva David: Blood... This blood is dried. But Metro made their "shots fired" call less than an hour ago.
Timothy McGee: Looks like the West just got a bit wilder.
Anthony DiNozzo: Cuffs, boss... Skin, blood. This guy was strapped up here for a while. That's why prefer the fur handcuffs. Not really, boss. That's for her. I don't wear the cuffs.
Ziva David: Someone was trying to send a message. Written in blood. Phone number?
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Not a phone number.
Timothy McGee: I don't know what the "G" stands for, but it's nine digits. Could be a military service number I'll run it.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: You don't have to... It's mine.

NCIS: Squad room
Leon Vance: Where is he?
Anthony DiNozzo: Um, I'm not exactly sure, Director.
Leon Vance: Tell him I need to see him.
Anthony DiNozzo: I will give him the message. And the nature of the message. I'll include who it's from, and the number.
Ziva David: Why would anyone leave Gibbs' Marine service number on a rooftop crime scene.
Anthony DiNozzo: Agent Gibbs' desk. No, he's not here. But I'd be happy to take a detailed message. Flight arrives at 2:30. Can I take a name or a return number? Oh, okay I will. A name and a number.
Timothy McGee: Enough, okay? I understand. I am sorry, but what do you want me to do? You want me to sort through the database. Of every call that came into the switchboard this morning. And match incoming call to your desk phone using a date and a time stamp?
Anthony DiNozzo: Yeah, actually. That'd be great Thanks. Oh, hey, boss, got two messages for you, actually, right there. Sorry. Director Vance wants you to call him back ASAP, and the, uh the other is, uh... And then there's-there's that one. Um, it says that the flight arrives at 2:30 It's from M Street Travel? I assume that's a travel agent. Didn't say where the flight was from or who the passenger was. But if you want to share that, you can feel.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Dead Marine?
Timothy McGee: PFC Emilio Salazar Service record.
Ziva David: 18-year-old. Completed basic training at Parris Island two months ago. And was stationed at Quantico.
Timothy McGee: Had more than a service record. Criminal record goes back to 2003, when Emilio was 12. All juvenile offenses. All gang-related.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Gang tattoos.
Ziva David: Or Pecados Capitales.
Anthony DiNozzo: Capital Fish?
Ziva David: Deadly Sins, you idiot Fish is pescado.
Anthony DiNozzo: Don't scoff at me. Lots of gangs are named after deadly fish. There's the Sharks, there's the Barracudas... Rumble Fish.
Timothy McGee: These guys are also known as the Pcs.
Anthony DiNozzo: Sounds like your kind of gang, McMotherboard.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Kid lives through six years in a gang can't survive four months as a Marine.
Timothy McGee: Maybe someone didn't want him to leave the gang?
Ziva David: Maybe a rival gang killed him?
Timothy McGee: Though that wouldn't explain your service number, boss.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Focus on tracking the killer.
Ziva David: And what about the other person who may have been held there?
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Find the shooter.
Anthony DiNozzo: Vance wanted to call him ASAP, boss.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Heard you the first time, DiNozzo.

Ziva David: I have not been to the range in days.
Vincente Medina: No talking on the range, please.
Anthony DiNozzo: Well, that's going to be a real problem, Staff Sergeant Medina. 'Cause I'm real talky and I have a badge... Is there somewhere we can talk?
Vincente Medina: Cease fire! Cease fire! Clear and lock 'em! Stand by!

Vincente Medina: How'd it happen?
Anthony DiNozzo: Firefight He lost.
Vincente Medina: Someone shot him?
Ziva David: Several times.
Vincente Medina: You know who did it?
Ziva David: If we did, we would not be here. Thought you could help.
Vincente Medina: Any way I can.
Anthony DiNozzo: He was killed in the neighborhood where he grew up. He ever talk about his past? Gangs, trouble?
Vincente Medina: All the time He was trying to escape it.
Ziva David: So you knew he had a record before he joined the Marines?
Vincente Medina: Some of these kids grew up in a jungle. A lot more dangerous than the desert we're sending them to, you know?
Anthony DiNozzo: Salazar ever drop names, gang affiliations, enemies?
Vincente Medina: Nothing specific. He had troubles like any kid who runs in gang circles. But he didn't name anybody.
Anthony DiNozzo: If you can think of anything, let me know.
Ziva David: Berettas nine millimeter.
Vincente Medina: Feel free.
Ziva David: Do you mind?
Vincente Medina: Not at all, ma'am. Do your best.
Anthony DiNozzo: Oh, God.

NCIS: Autopsy room
Donald Mallard: Prior to PFC Salazar's demise. Handcuffs made these abrasions and lacerations.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Yeah, well, he wasn't held there long.
Donald Mallard: No He was executed almost immediately upon his confinement. As to the cause of death.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Gunshots.
Donald Mallard: Well, yes and no. These wounds were made by machine-gun fire. The spacing is too symmetrical for random shooting. Also, they showed no signs of redness or braiding and bruising, indicating that our private was long dead when he was strafed.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: How long?
Donald Mallard: About six hours based on his liver temperature. And here single round, nine millimeter punctured the pericardial sac, causing a cardiac tamponade. He suffered greatly, Jethro, perhaps for 20 or 30 minutes, and he did not die quickly.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: The bullet that killed him?
Donald Mallard: In the capable hands of Abby Sciuto... You've never left a scene of a crime before I arrived until this one, Jethro.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Yeah. Had something else to do.
Donald Mallard: Something to do with your Marine Corps service number?
Leon Vance: I was wondering the same thing myself... You're avoiding me.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: I've been busy solving a murder, Leon. When I have something, you'll be the first to know.

Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Right.
Mike Franks: What's so urgent? You pulled me away from my granddaughter. Just celebrated her second birthday.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: I'm looking for somebody... Rose.

Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Only one person knew about her. You.
Mike Franks: 18 years is a long time, probie.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: She's in DC. Today. Mike.
Mike Franks: What do you want me to say?
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Whatever you're not saying.
Mike Franks: Well, how do you know she's here, for sure?
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: My Marine service number was written on the roof of a crime scene... In blood.
Mike Franks: That could have been anybody.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: I put a "G" on the end of it, just for her.
Mike Franks: I brought her here 17 years ago.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Where is she now?
Mike Franks: I haven't seen her since the day I dropped her off.

Leon Vance: I didn't do anything I wouldn't have done for any former agent, Mike. All by the book.
Mike Franks: Absolutely "By the book."
Leon Vance: That's how we operate now.
Mike Franks: Wouldn't have it any other way, Leon... Think he noticed my tie?
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: What do we got?
Ziva David: We canvassed the area No one is talking. There is a smurf war.
Anthony DiNozzo: Turf war.
Ziva David: Between two competing gangs, the PCs and the Verde Psychos.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Ballistics.
Ziva David: We matched the slug that killed PFC Salazar to a gun that was used in an unsolved robbery two weeks ago. And Metro's chief suspect is Victor Carmado, aka Popeye.
Anthony DiNozzo: Victor Carmado is a known member of the Pcs.
Mike Franks: He was hanging out with his posse at Liberty Heights today.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: DiNozzo, Ziva, bring him in.

Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Abby!
Mike Franks: Howdy, darling!
Abigael Scuito: Franks! What are you doing here?
Mike Franks: Probie thinks I'm here helping him, but it was just an excuse to come see you.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Abs, turn it down.
Abigael Scuito: This is so cool. Someone writes your service number on a roof, and then you just show up. It's like sending out the bat signal and having Batman just show up. And his mentor, Ra's al Ghul. Or-or like Princess Lela sending a hologram. "Help me, Obi-Wan". And then getting Obi-Wan with his mentor, Qui-Gon Jinn... You know, it's weird 'cause Liam Neeson played both the mentors.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: You gonna tell me why I'm here?
Abigael Scuito: Oh, um, I ran the blood from the service number. It does not match our dead Marine, Emilio Salazar.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: I already know that.
Abigael Scuito: Of course you do. Well, hopefully it'll be news to you. That the blood did belong to another Marine. Private First Class Tomas Tamayo. Judging by the look on your face, that is news to you. Um, he comes from the same neighborhood as PFC Salazar. According to his records. His mother died ten years ago after emigrating from Colombia.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Rose had a son?
Mike Franks: Uh, yeah. He was about a year old when I brought her here.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: You knew?
Mike Franks: I'm guessing you didn't.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: I need an address, Abs.
Abigael Scuito: 57 Kensington Street. The home belongs to a woman named Maggie Scott.

Abigael Scuito: Well, drop the call. This is much more important.
Timothy McGee: Okay, what's up?
Abigael Scuito: I heard something. Not a complete something, a partial something. But enough of something to make me think it means something. So I need to know if there's any other something that you know about?
Timothy McGee: What? I'm-I'm lost.
Abigael Scuito: Okay It's something about Gibbs. And Colombia. And a woman named Rose. And a son she had 18 years ago.
Timothy McGee: That would been 1991, before Gibbs joined NCIS.
Abigael Scuito: Come on, McGee. Type something about the something into something.

Maggie Scott: Why? Is he all right?
Mike Franks: He was involved in a murder.
Maggie Scott: Oh, my God.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: No, he wasn't the victim. Someone a couple of streets over. Emilio Salazar.
Maggie Scott: Emilio. Yeah, he's a, uh, he's a friend of Tomas's. His mother, has anyone contacted Emilio's mother?
Mike Franks: Being done now. Where is Tomas?
Maggie Scott: He's on leave, Cape Hatteras. Before Afghanistan.
Mike Franks: Wrong He was at a crime scene last night in DC.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Hold on. You were his legal guardian?
Maggie Scott: Legal guardian to a lot of these kids. Keeps them out of the system. I just watch them till their moms get home from work. Most of them don't have fathers. Two of them lost siblings, past couple months.
Mike Franks: War?
Maggie Scott: Gang war.
Mike Franks: You're not from around here, are you?
Maggie Scott: I moved here after college Part of the Vista program. I never left.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: How'd you become Thomas's guardian?
Maggie Scott: Tomas moved in about 12 years back Then when Rose got sick, his mother has cancer, she asked me to look after him. He's a good kid. He's a really good kid... Oh, my God, it's okay. He's here. It's Tomas. It's Tomas. Tomas! Are you all right?

Ziva David: You're going to prison.
Victor Carmado: Says who?
Anthony DiNozzo: Says the nine-millimeter slug we pulled out of PFC Emilio Salazar. Matches the slug from another shooting you were involved in.
Victor Carmado: If witnesses put me there, I'd have been locked up already.
Ziva David: We have a dead Marine, former gang member of yours.
Anthony DiNozzo: This is the murder weapon. Found dumped in a storm drain. Recognize it?
Victor Carmado: That's it? That's all you got?
Ziva David: It's all we need.
Victor Carmado: It's all circumstantial... I think you got nothing... I think what you need is a confession.

Leroy Jethro Gibbs: You are looking at ten years for accessory to a murder of a USMarine.
Mike Franks: More if we tag you for murder one. Your sweat was on that roof. Your pee was on that roof. Your blood was on that roof. You gonna tell us what happened on that roof?
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: You're gonna tell us who else was there. Who put that bullet in PFC Salazar? We're gonna have to assume it was you.
Tomas Tamayo: I didn't kill Emilio.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Who did?

Victor Carmado: Me. I killed the little bitch.
Ziva David: You killed PFC Salazar?
Victor Carmado: Yeah, I did it You got me. The fool deserved to die.

Victor Carmado: Lights out, baby. JFK style. Back and to the left, know what I'm saying?

Tomas Tamayo: No.
Mike Franks: He would have had trouble breathing. The pain must have been excruciating. But you know all this don't you, Marine?
Tomas Tamayo: I wasn't there.

Leroy Jethro Gibbs: He's scared.
Mike Franks: He's hiding something.
Ziva David: They both are.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Something more going on than that.
Mike Franks: You're right, probie. Gangbangers don't kidnap their enemies. They shoot them in the street. Somebody's pulling strings, calling shots.
Timothy McGee: I think I know who. I've been crosschecking the Metro Gang Task Force's list of known PC members. Against cell numbers registered in their names. One common phone number keeps popping up. It's a number from outside the neighborhood. That called almost every member of the PC gang.
Anthony DiNozzo: That's the Cofrom the shooting range.
Ziva David: Staff sergeant Vicente Medina.
Timothy McGee: That's not all I looked into the staff sergeant's history. It seems he shares a bit more than phone records in common. He wasn't just recruiting from the Pcs. He was a member.

Vincente Medina: Sir, I did not kill that Marine!
Mike Franks: What were you doing last night?
Vincente Medina: I was at home watching TV.
Mike Franks: Anybody watching you watching TV?
Vincente Medina: No.
Mike Franks: Your place is 20 minutes from our crime scene... Phone records... You made contact with half the PC posse over the past six months... Rap sheet, yours. Shot caller for the PCs for three years... Once a Marine, always a Marine. Or once a PC, always a PC.
Vincente Medina: I lived the life It's not a secret. I liked it, till I saw what was happening to my friends. In dead or jail by 17 so I joined the Marine Corps. Made me a better person came back to the hood. And tried to convince others to make something of themselves.
Ziva David: Ran a system-wide facial recognition search. I thought you'd want to see this right away.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Okay, let's try this again Where were you last night?
Vincente Medina: I... I told you I was at home.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Baltimore! That was taken last night! You couldn't have killed him. Why are you lying?
Vincente Medina: I went to visit my son. When I was 15, I made some mistakes. I got a girl pregnant. And my wife, she doesn't know I have a kid.
Mike Franks: I know what we got, nothing. Guess we all make mistakes, huh, probie?

Mike Franks: Got two Marines chained to a roof. Don't know why. Got somebody behind it pulling strings. Don't know who.

Ziva David: Or how it is connected to the gang?
Mike Franks: Got a punk who didn't kill anybody who says he did, and a kid who wrote probie's service number in blood saying he didn't.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: You done?
Mike Franks: Done watching you shave with a butter knife. Let me talk to that kid. I'll get him to tell us what the hell's going on here.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: I can't do that, Mike I let him go.

Mike Franks: When I got Rose out of Colombia, you were happily married again. Or so I thought.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: What's the truth?

Anthony DiNozzo: I'm not obsessing! I'm a little preoccupied. I'm a tad fascinated by the whole subject, but I amnot obsessing. What was he doing in Colombia 17 years ago?
Leon Vance: 18 years ago and it's classified, DiNozzo. Is that classified, too, or can you share with your director?
Timothy McGee: We're, uh, tracking a suspect for Gibbs, Director.
Leon Vance: Franks is with him? That's what I thought.
Timothy McGee: PFC Tamayo's just left Quantico. He's now headed towards Liberty Heights. So, what do you want us to do?
Leon Vance: Whatever you were doing before I walked in. What's Tamayo's duty assignment at Quantico?
Ziva David: Guard duty at the base armory.
Leon Vance: And the dead Marine?
Ziva David: PFC Salazar was also a guard at the armory.
Anthony DiNozzo: Means they both had access to the armory codes. Stepping back. Excuse me.
Leon Vance: Get base security on the phone.
Anthony DiNozzo: Yes, sir.

Vincente Medina: It was me. I ordered him to take those weapons off the base. And bring 'em here like they wanted.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Why?
Vincente Medina: Because I was.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: No, not you. You.
Tomas Tamayo: They held me on the roof. Said they'd hurt everyone I love unless I got them the assault weapons. I... I didn't believe them. They used to be my friends. Then they threatened Emilio. Shot him in front of me... I thought they were gonna kill me, too.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: That why you wrote my service number?
Tomas Tamayo: When I found out you were NCIS, I wanted to tell you, but...
Vincente Medina: I ordered him not to.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Why?
Vincente Medina: Using Marine guns to kill kids in my hood. Kids I was trying to save it made me sick. I wanted to handle it myself... We take care of our own.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Those guys are just the hired help.

NCIS: Observation room
Ziva David: That is all you have to say?
Tomas Tamayo: Yes. I did it, I admit it I'll give you a full confession.
Maggie Scott: Can I talk to him?
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: No, he's going to prison.
Maggie Scott: Please, I...
Mike Franks: He stole weapons from a Marine base to arm a street gang. People died.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: He confessed to everything. All of it, his idea... And he's going away... Unless you've got something to say.
Maggie Scott: Wait. He didn't do anything. He's lying.
Mike Franks: Hold up.
Maggie Scott: Nobody was supposed to get hurt. They were supposed to scare them so that Tomas or Emilio would get the guns. For the PC's Emilio wasn't supposed to get shot. That was an accident, I swear.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Who need weapons, Maggie?
Maggie Scott: Our kids. In the neighborhood, on our block. They were getting killed every day. Slaughtered by drug dealers and bigger gangs. They are dying every day! I had to protect them.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: By what, arming them with assault rifles?
Maggie Scott: I grew up in the Cold War. My dad talked about deterrence, if you build up an arsenal that rivals your enemy's, they won't attack you... You understand?

NCIS: Director's office
Leon Vance: Read about the mission to eliminate Cesar Castillo from the Cali Cartel in Colombia.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Good read?
Leon Vance: It was impressive. Took out your target with one shot to the heart from 1, 200 yards. This Castillo was a piece of work. Drug dealer, torturer, rapist.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: I did my job.
Leon Vance: And the mission would've gone off without a hitch if you hadn't been wounded.
Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Well, I guess you're all caught up now, Leon.
Leon Vance: Must've been poignant helping out the son of the woman that saved your life... Did you tell the boy that the man you killed was his father?
