Joe Spano credited as playing...
T.C. Fornell
- NCIS Agent Susan Grady: I'm an 080 security specialist, not a full-time agent. I got clearance from the director before I started freelancing.
- Senior FBI Agent T.C. Fornell: Wait. Director Vance knows?
- NCIS Agent Susan Grady: No, this was Director Shepard. This was, I think, February of '08.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Susan, you're not in trouble.
- NCIS Agent Susan Grady: I know I'm not in trouble. I haven't broken any regulations.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Then stop acting defensive.
- NCIS Agent Susan Grady: I'm not acting! I'm genuinely feeling on the defensive. You have a very off-putting way of putting people... you know, off.
- Senior FBI Agent T.C. Fornell: [as Gibbs is about to take a polygraph] Wouldn't miss this for the world.
- Leon Vance: Been dodging this for years.
- Senior FBI Agent T.C. Fornell: [to Gibbs] You have a surveillance camera in the Conference Room now? Hope you don't have one in the elevator.
- Leon Vance: We don't. Not yet at least, Agent Fornell. How can I help you?
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Borrow your TV.
- Leon Vance: And my copy of Emily Post. Door was closed.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: You still investigating those mob hits?
- Senior FBI Agent T.C. Fornell: Hence the undercover beard. I'm worried. If it gets a little bigger...
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: People are gonna start thinking you're Kenny Rogers.
- Senior FBI Agent T.C. Fornell: The hits.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: I'm gonna start calling you the Gambler.
- Senior FBI Agent T.C. Fornell: You sure you don't have a camera in the elevator?
- Leon Vance: When I do, you'll be the first to know. TV's all yours.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: [as Gibbs is about take a polygraph] Where are you thinking of clipping that thing?
- NCIS Agent Susan Grady: Uh, it's for the sphincter sensor.
- Senior FBI Agent T.C. Fornell: [laughing] Oh geez!
- Senior FBI Agent T.C. Fornell: Did you start looking... after we saw the judge... or before?
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: ...Before.
- Senior FBI Agent T.C. Fornell: Right...
- [to Gibbs]
- Senior FBI Agent T.C. Fornell: Thanks for doing it my way.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Yeah, don't mention it.
- Senior FBI Agent T.C. Fornell: I was being facetious.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: So was I.
- NCIS Agent Susan Grady: Um, if you could just make some room.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Where are you thinking of clipping that thing?
- NCIS Agent Susan Grady: It's for the sphincter sensor.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Oh, gee...
- Senior FBI Agent T.C. Fornell: [snickers]
- NCIS Agent Susan Grady: I, uh, usually set this up beforehand.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: All you need now is a buzzer.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: [to their murder suspect] You really think you're such a natural that you didn't leave behind a single red hair? You never faced your victims, but you still murdered them.
- Senior FBI Agent T.C. Fornell: You know, it doesn't matter that you think they had it coming. You were appointed judge. Not jury and executioner.
- Senior FBI Agent T.C. Fornell: He was thrown in alive?
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Petty Officer was trying to be a good samaritan.
- Jimmy Palmer: No good deed goes unpunished.
