You want to get that?

Hello.

No, Special Agent DiNozzo's been reassigned.

Special Agent Langer.

Maybe I can, uh...

Uh, I don't know, several months ago.

Well, I'm not authorized to say,

but you could try the personnel department and...

Hello?

Four months, I've been sitting here

fielding calls for DiNozzo.

And I swear, they're all women.

And that surprises you?

Have you seen my Oman threat assessment?

Oh, is that what this is?

And I thought it was copy

for a travel brochure.

"Come see sunny Oman."

Give me the file, Langer. Ooh!

Give her the file, Langer.

Give her the file, Langer.

Good morning, sir. Morning, sir.

Morning, sir.

So glad we all agree on something.

Agent Lee, Oman threat assessment.

Right here, sir.

Aggh...

Sorry, sir.

Told you about calling me sir.

Gibbs.

Oh, a call came in for you.

I took the message, sir...

uh, Gibbs.

Yes, I can see right here

in the "message taken by" box: Keating.

Uh, he said it was...

Urgent.

Special Agent Gibbs for Detective Reynolds.

It'll get better.

Yeah... when he retires.

All right.

Grab your gear. Oh.

Sorry.

Oh, my God, my fault, sir. Sorry.

Sorry. Gibbs, I was pressing the wrong thing.

She was.

Sorry... didn't mean to ruin your shot.

It's okay.

That's why they get the cheap rates, you see.

It's far away from everything.

Didn't worry him.

Paid cash up front, 18 weeks.

Not curious you didn't see him all that time?

Life in the park bleeds the curiosity out of you.

Live and let live.

I only came to see him 'cause his rent was due.

Body's been in that trailer

at least four and a half months.

Explains why no one complained about the smell.

Agent Lee?

Found his stash.

Must be at least $5,000 here.

He's lucky it wasn't stolen.

Keating,

he's not lucky, he's dead.

I'll tag and bag it.

Langer.

Deceased is Petty Officer Steven Nicholas Vargo.

Failed to report for duty back in May,

four and a half months ago.

Where? Navy yard.

Lived in auxiliary housing-- left work,

didn't return to his room.

I guess he found this little

piece of paradise more appealing.

What sort of job?

Strategic planning, building right next door to ours.

Security clearance?

As high as they go.

Okay. Get a statement.

Mr. Palmer,

tell Agent Gibbs he can send in the B team.

That implies there's an A team, Duck.

Isn't there?

They're all A teams.

Perhaps some even A-plus.

Sleeping?

Well, there are other reasons

why men take their clothes off to go to bed, Jethro.

Any evidence of that?

Well, he did come to a sticky end.

I'll go get the gurney.

Single gunshot wound

to the upper temporal area,

probably while asleep-- the pillow was held

against his head to muffle the shot.

Nothing to suggest a struggle.

You know, the stench in here

must have been unbearable.

Isn't anybody curious anymore?

Bled out.

Like him.

Gibbs!

Abby.

I need a hearing test. I'm going deaf.

Am I talking loud? 'Cause sometimes people

that don't hear very well,

they talk too loud,

except sometimes, when I get water

in my ears, I talk so softly that people tell me

to speak up, 'cause I have that weird,

you know, gurgling, swishing sound in my head.

Has that ever happened to you?

Why didn't I hear the elevator?

The stairs.

You don't take the stairs.

You are taking the stairs

because you associate the elevator

with people you're trying to forget.

Abby, I'm not trying to forget anybody.

What do you got?

Nine-millimeter casing

and a 147-grain LE hollow-point slug.

We use LE hollow points,

and so do the FBI,

Secret Service, Navy SEALS

and a bunch of other law enforcement,

but it's not the kind of slug

that Joe Public can get his mitts on.

What else?

A number.

One, two, six?

One hundred and twenty-six.

That is the number of days

that Tony, McGee and Ziva have been gone.

I really didn't think you'd let it

get into triple digits, Gibbs,

but now it's way more.

It's like a third of a whole year.

I miss them.

Abby, you had lunch with McGee yesterday.

It's not the same.

I miss them collectively... as a group.

My three musketeers.

Tim is the only one I've seen.

No Tony, no Ziva.

I get postcards from Tony.

I want them back, Gibbs.

Please get them back.

You have ten days.

Okay, I don't want to pressure you,

so 12...

but no more than two weeks.

And stop taking the stairs.

Agent Gibbs,

I think I have something-- I have a connection

between our murder victim, Petty Officer Vargo,

and former Navy Petty Officer Brian Roberts.

He and the victim served together.

Put it up.

On the plasma, Keating.

That's Roberts on the left,

and our murder victim, Vargo, is on the right.

Roberts got out six months ago,

but here's the kicker:

Roberts was killed by a bomb blast

at a bar in Morocco overnight.

Terrorist attack?

Trying to get more now.

Got a link to the raw feed out of ZNN.

Unlucky coincidence.

Must be.

Oh, that's a hell of a bomb blast.

Casualties?

Four killed, including Roberts.

13 injured.

Oh, my God.

Isn't that...?

Ziva.

This number you are calling is not available.
