- Margaret Allison Hart: I thought you were going to start locking your front door.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Well, if I did that, I'd have no social life.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: I broke rule #10 again. Never get personally involved in a case.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Yeah. It's the rule I've always had the most trouble with.
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: Year of the Spy.
- Abby Sciuto: Spies have their own year?
- Special Agent Timothy McGee: More spies were arrested on US soil in 1985 than any other year in history. That's why the media dubbed it the "Year of the Spy."
- Ziva David: Tony, you know, you're getting way too old for these one night stands. Your biological clock is ticking.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Men don't have bilogical clocks. When I meet Ms. Right, I'll be ready to settle down.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: [Gibbs enters] Don't ever settle, DiNozzo.
- Margaret Allison Hart: Alejandro was very helpful in my securing Colonel Bell's release.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: [Quietly] Maybe we shouldn't be cooperating, Leon.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: When was the last time you saw her?
- Margaret Allison Hart: Last week. She wanted to talk. She had... just broken up with her producer boyfriend. And if you want any more from me , you're going to have to ply me with liquor.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: We've got clearance.
- Navy Captain Austin Sears: Not for *this* one. Can't read you into the program unless you're cleared by Sec Nav himself.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: I'll make the call.
- Navy Captain Austin Sears: I suggest you have your director do it.
- [Ends the call]
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: Friend killed accidentally. Healthy brother dies of unknown causes. She disappears. I think we're setting a record here for coincidences.
- Special Agent Jethro Gibbs: [Referring to Colonel Bell] He's the one who pays for your $500 shoes.
- Margaret Allison Hart: I take offense. They cost 1200.
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Is this place worth much?
- Maggie Reed: If you were a potential buyer, I'd say yes. But, uh, to be honest, there's less than a year left on the lease. Everybody's getting electronic readers. Books are a dying business.
- Ziva David: So what exactly are you looking for in Ms. Right?
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: Well, aside from the obvious - physical requirements, I don't know. I guess she'd be... a very independent woman. Intelligent, successful, professional.
- Ziva David: Okay, just one question: what would this woman *possibly* see in you?
- Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo: [Entering the lab] Hey.
- Jimmy Palmer: She's in a foul mood... again.
- Abby Sciuto: Palmer! I have guns in my Ballistics Lab. And I know how to use them.
- Dr. Donald Mallard: [after Palmer finds something on the victim] Well let's see what it is.
- Jimmy Palmer: I've prepared your instruments for you.
- Dr. Donald Mallard: No, no, no. This is all *yours*, Mr. Palmer. Allow me to assist.
