- Jimmy Palmer: I'm just test driving for my big date. I'm also trying on disposable contact lens.
- Dr. Donald Mallard: Change is good Mr. Palmer, as long as you are the motivation for the change.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: [Gibbs enters] Ugh. Smells like a French whorehouse in here!
- Jimmy Palmer: Uh, that's me.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: What are you trying to do, Palmer? Raise the dead?
- Dr. Donald Mallard: Would you take these up to Ms Sciuto right away? And, uh, then use the hazmat shower.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Yeah, use it twice.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: The case will never stick, right?
- Margaret Allison Hart: You just made a very big mistake!
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Yeah. You won.
- Margaret Allison Hart: Did I?
- Margaret Allison Hart: You really want to talk to her?
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Yeah. I want some answers. I want the truth.

- Leon Vance: Okay, I'm asking.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Okay. I'm declining.
