- Coroner Elmo Poke: Well, it looks like Ducky decided to take the body to Washington.
- Sr. FBI Agent T.C. Fornell: Why's your medical examiner taking the body to Washington?
- Coroner Elmo Poke: I never said he was my medical examiner.
- Sr. FBI Agent T.C. Fornell: Then who the hell's medical examiner is he?
- Coroner Elmo Poke: Ducky? He works for NCIS.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Rule number one: never let suspects stay together. Rule number two: always wear gloves at a crime scene. Rule number three: don't believe what you're told. Double check.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: [answering his cell phone] Hello?
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: We're in the clear. You can get out of the body bag.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: I never thought I'd say this, but I'm not sure I want to.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Why? You gotta search Commander Trapp's apartment tonight.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Oh, Gibbs, come on. It's one a.m.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Agent Axelrod is trailing you to pick up the body bag when the FBI tosses it.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: That's funny, Gibbs. Real funny. Especially since...
- [sounds of Tony's groans of pain]
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: [closing his phone] I guess they found him.
- NCIS Director Tom Morrow: Did you really have to slam the door on the FBI?
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: There were more of them than us.
- NCIS Director Tom Morrow: There's always more of them than us. What about this Secret Service agent? She willing to stand up to the FBI?
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: I don't know. She's got balls.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: They've got to be after the president. What would killing the ball carrier give them?
- Agent Caitlin Todd: Nothing. Another aide steps in.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: [realizing] And another plane. This plane. They forced the president to fly his backup.
- Agent Caitlin Todd: Well, security's exactly the same.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: But the plane isn't. And I'll bet security isn't either until the president's on board. Al-Qaeda has to have planted something on this plane.
- Agent Caitlin Todd: Okay, it can't be a bomb. They would have detonated it by now.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: You said the locks were different.
- Agent Caitlin Todd: 29 has digital ones. This plane has keys.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Armory. The armory. They have keys to the armory. They copied the movie, they vetted a reporter.
- Agent Caitlin Todd: No, that would take years.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: So did setting up 9/11.
- Abby Sciuto: There's a cot, in that cabinet over there.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Bless you.
- Abby Sciuto: What are you, my priest?
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Curse you?
- Secret Service Agent William Baer: I'm going to be doing paperwork for a week.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Yeah me too.
- Secret Service Agent William Baer: Agent Todd told me about her and Major Kerry when she tendered her resignation.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Are you accepting?
- Secret Service Agent William Baer: Of course she broke the rules.
- [Holds out his hand to shake Gibbs' hand]
- Secret Service Agent William Baer: Well thank you Special Agent Gibbs
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: [Gibbs smiles] No thank you.
- [Gibbs runs to catch up with Kate]
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: I heard you quit Agent Todd.
- Agent Caitlin Todd: Happy news gets around fast. Yes I resigned. It was the right thing to do.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Yep, pull that crap at NCIS and I won't give you a chance to resign.
- Agent Caitlin Todd: Is that a job offer?
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: When's the president returning?
- Agent Caitlin Todd: Uh, tomorrow, noon. I'm flying back tonight to rejoin the detail.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Mind if I tag along?
- [Kate rolls her eyes and smirks, considering]
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: [smiles] Please?
- Agent Caitlin Todd: You can. Your SIG-Sauer can't. We have a rule: no weapons on Air Force One unless you're Secret Service.
- [Gibbs locks his sidearm in a drawer, and follows Kate to the elevator]
- Abby Sciuto: Wow... Gibbs said "please."
- Agent Caitlin Todd: I can't give him Air Force One floor plans! They're top secret!
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Come on. I saw all this in a Harrison Ford movie.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Did you enjoy playing my boss?
- Dr. Donald 'Ducky' Mallard: I did, rather.
- Agent Caitlin Todd: Look, don't dismiss me like that! Okay? I earned my jockstrap!
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Yeah? Does it ever give that empty feeling?
- Agent Caitlin Todd: What?
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Your jockstrap.
- Agent Caitlin Todd: No. Like some species of frogs, I grow what I need.
- Secret Service Agent William Baer: [about Gibbs] He's here because his gut's still churning, isn't it?
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: [to Fornell before slamming closed the hatch of Air Force One] Sorry, we, uh, overbooked the flight.
- Coroner Elmo Poke: Hello, Ducky. How'd you like them steaks I air-expressed you?
- Dr. Donald 'Ducky' Mallard: Delicious.
- Sr. FBI Agent T.C. Fornell: He air-expressed him steaks?
- Agent Caitlin Todd: It's a big state. Look how long it took them to get here.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: NCIS does not leak. These plans get out... you can shoot DiNozzo.
- Agent Caitlin Todd: No, I think I'm destined to shoot you.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: I do believe this is a dead Naval Officer.
- Agent Caitlin Todd: Onboard Air Force One.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: Hey! Cockpit's on the top deck.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: I knew that.
- Abby Sciuto: You dudes in the Secret Service ever think about throwing yourselves in front of the President's diet?
- Dr. Donald 'Ducky' Mallard: You know, Abby, nature always proves to be a far more elusive and powerful killer than man.
- Agent Caitlin Todd: Why should you head the investigation?
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: You ever worked a crime scene, Agent Todd?
- Agent Caitlin Todd: I am a Secret Service agent.
- Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs: I thought not.
