  Dr. Donald Mallard : Don't apologize to me. Apologize to them.

• Jimmy Palmer : They sure pack them in a lot of ice when they send them home.

  Dr. Donald Mallard : Standard procedure, Mr. Palmer. Yes, these Marines made the ultimate sacrifice. The Corps takes pride in how they care of their fallen.

  Special Agent Jethro Gibbs : So do we, Duck.

• Dr. Donald Mallard : Well, I doubt my friends here can tell you the details of her whereabouts. But feel free to ask.

  Special Agent Jethro Gibbs : I don't know what to ask.

  Dr. Donald Mallard : Then it may be that you are talking to the wrong people. Jethro, the dead have always been kind to me. Provided the answers I have required. But if there is a possibility that First Lieutenant Flores is still alive, then perhaps these are not the ones to whom you should turn.
