Picspam NCIS 7x07 Endgame:
RL is crazy right now, so that why it's late. On the good side, there's two picspams instead of one. On the bad side, I'm only up to 20k on Nano. It's like last year, I'll write like crazy in the last day/week-end. It looks like it's over, but I'm not giving up until 23h59 the 30 November.
In this one, Tony realizes he's not really okay with an open relationship, and McGee plays with his feeling to push him to say the word 'commitment'.
Very discreet Tony. How did you spend your days before McGee arrive in your life? But look how he prepared his explanation, with the yellow folder. "No, I wasn't looking through his things; I was deposing/getting back this file!"




"What are you doing?"
"Nothing."
"Those are none of your business. Those belong to McGee."
"They're funny."
"They're private."
"They're self-help cds. McLonely hearts ordered 'em. Download your destiny... Three easy payments of $19.95 each. Satisfaction guaranteed or your money back."
"Maybe McGee is already satisfied."
Maybe Tony's not so sure McGee's happy with him…
"Maybe there's an Easter Bunny, too."
"Tony..."
" Anyone can achieve their fullest potential. Who we are might be predetermined, but the path we follow is always of our own choosing.
"Oh, my God, turn that off."
"I love this guy. Sort of a poor man's Shatner."
"We should never allow our fears or the expectations of others to set the frontiers of our destiny."



"I've heard enough. Maybe you're the one who needs a little self-help."
"Well...See, that's where you're wrong, Ziva. I'm already enlightened. I know exactly who I am. It may not be pretty, but I am DiNozzo, hear me roar."
"Like an elephant?"
Heeee, Gibbs/Mark burned by the coffee!



"Get out of his desk."
"Getting out of his desk, boss."
"Where's McGee?"
"We do not know."
"Maybe little Timmy missed the short bus."
"Find him."
"I'll find him, and for being late, he's buying coffee."

Stupid jacket *pout*
"Here you go, sir."
"Uh, you sure this is mine? This seems like a lot for my order."
"Yep."
"And I ... "
"It was just phoned in."
"Thanks."

Oh Tony. And McGee just accepts.
(Tony or Amanda? McGee doesn't protest, so he's thinking Tony. And honestly, I thought Tony knew where McGee would be, because he knows his favorite restaurant and all, and knew he'll go there for coffee before coming to work because it's his routine, and call before, 'like, any command for McGee? Add....'. Even more when Tony called to say they got a call out, but unless the guy at the coffee messed up the command, and Tim looked into the bag and knew it wasn't what Tony wanted, or something, it doesn't add.)
6 coffees: McGee, Tony, Ziva, Gibbs, Ducky and ?
Hello Amanda. She's cute. Oh, she's direct. It's the best way to have his attention.
"I've got a ring in my front left pocket."
"Could you help me out?"
"You... the phone? "
"Yes,uh, phone, sorry."



Wow, McGee! That's the CDs' work, or you taking lessons from someone? (How cute it would be if he sincerely had no idea of how asking to take the phone in his pocket sound like?)

"Yeah, Tony, what is it?"
"We got a call out, McGoo."
"Yeah, I know, I'm coming."
"With the coffees?"
"Yes, with the coffees."
"Did you get my pastry?"
"Yes, I got your pastry."
"Well, what's taking you so long?
Are you leaving now?"
"Uh-huh."
"Get a McMove on."
Could you be a little more married couple?
Good move Amada.
I want to feel happy for Amanda, because she looks really sweet, but people sucked again with keeping spoilers behind a cut, so I know it'll end badly. I don't know how yet, except she got shot.
And we have the third apparition of Probilicious! Damn, you know him this well? Seriously, you barely look at him, and you already know it's his happy face?







"I'm here, boss."
"So nice of you to make it, Tim."
"No excuses, won't happen again."
"Danish in the car?"
"Scone."
"Chocolate?"
"Blueberry."
"I could tell you were with somebody, you know. Think I don't see that little glint in your eye, spring in your step? Spill, Probilicious. What's her name? Spill." Not that I'm jealous or something. Because we're not, like exclusive. Just friendly curiosity. Yeah.
"I'm gonna get to work now." Seeing we're not 'exclusive'.
McGee still takes the wrong order for Tony, who isn't even surprised. I think it's a thing between them, going back to Stake Out and the fight which may or may not turned into something else.
Oooh, it's the lady from LA!


"Lee Wuan Kai, North Korean assassin, one-time fanatical nationalist, credited with 27 targeted hits in seven countries, dozens more by association."
"She likes quiet walks on the beach, laughing with friends, and playing frisbee with her cocker spaniel Rufus."

Like Gibbs!
"Oh, ogling the numbers of the new girl, huh? Look at you, McDigit. Hmm, I'm having a kreskin-like intuition here. Is she a redhead? She is. Look at you, pulling a page from the Gibbs playbook. Nice."
"Do not pay attention to him, McGee. Whoever she is, I am sure she is lovely."
"Thank you, Ziva."






"Why is she nice to you and not to me?"
"Maybe because you broke into my desk and stole my motivational CDs."
"I put them back."
"You mocked me publicly."
"I always do that."
"Maybe they're working."
"Maybe you should stop drinking the motivational kool-aid." You don't need them with me!





Damnit computer! Why someone or something always interrupt them when they're like this? I want to know how long they can 'banter.'
Ziva, Tony was here first! There's enough of Timmy for everyone.

"Keep talking, Leon. Just keep talking. I want it all."
Another nice Vance/Gibbs moment.

One day, someone will talk about the tragic story of the death of someone who'll let behind a dog and friends, instead of the good old wife and kids.

"Boss, I got Demarco's home address. Taking Tony for backup."
There is a slashy joke in there, I know there is.
Tony, you're getting a lil' obsess with his love life. Again. And he helps him! Heee, Tony's playing with the badge!
"Is that Amanda? The coffee vixen?"
"Maybe."
"Text sex, huh? Will you ask her what a question mark wedged between two dollar signs means? 'Cause it sounds kind of kinky to me."
"She wants to see me tonight, but I'm probably working."
"Oh, don't tell her that. Tell her you've arranged a water bed, some squirt guns and a little bit of candle wax. Listen to Madonna, too. Women like Madonna."
He knows her name, so McGee did spill everything. Or Tony just stole the phone and look by himself.




*sings* The look, of looove!

*sings* The look, of feaaar!




Looking at each other to see if they're okay.

*snort* Sarah Palin!

I don't remember why I kept this cap. Maybe for the actress…*whistles innocently*
"Boss, she shot at us with a very big gun."
"It happens."
"You heard him, self-helpless. Call Metro."
"You call."
Okay, who's arguing for the sake of arguing, now?
"Okay. Then you uncuff her. Oh, you're afraid of the nurse, huh?"
"You are, too."


"I'll call Metro. You uncuff Florence Nightingale. Because it's your destiny."



And then, Tony kissed him.

Scared of the nurse! I like how they feel the need to be reeeeeeeeeeaaaallly close to each other when they have this discussion. You know, a surprise kiss would totally work as diversion or to win, simply for the shock the other will be in! With the time needed to get back in track, the winner is out! Like "I was frozen today!"
Well, she really wants Vance to find her.


"I'm not hungry."
"Well, don't have me get worried about you now"

"You know, when you called and said you were coming home early, I thought something was up. What's going on?"
Heee. Usually, it's "happy to see I was wrong", or something. Not Jackie. She knows she's right, so spill.

Meeeep, she's outside! Good of Vance, the gun is really out of reach from the kids, protect by a normal key and an electronic one.
Oh, bad move Jackie. Maybe she's not used to see her husband in Agent Mode, kind of disconnection. "Wait danger? Here?"
I think it's the first time the reality of his job hit her.


"But you're my partner now. And I'm not going anywhere."
I already loved Mme Vance when she found the way to add lesson against the drugs in the personal stories to teach her children, it's even more now.


"He was Kai-jacked."
"Did you really just say that?"
"I regret it already."
Heeee! He was all happy and proud of his little joke until Tim didn't like it. You know for who he's telling them.



(Little aparté, I really want to see the big improvisation scene they made, in which episode it is, why MW didn't want to do his lines so much, and how Sean and Cote changed their stuff to stop him. Also how the original scene was supposed to go.)

Amanda is familiar...

How cute, he's got his 'got laid' face.


"Morning. Heck of a day, isn't it?"
"You went home?"
"Oh, just for an hour." I'm sure you're okay with it, because, you know, we're not exclusive.


"I've been talking to agents all night, doing recon, and you went home and got your game on with little, sexy, miss text message. Ziva, look at him."
"What are you talking about?"
"He's oozing a musky, caveman-esque, primitive satisfaction."



Look at McGee's smile at the description!
"Like Heston in "Planet of the Apes". And it didn't matter that that world was ruled by orangutans, because Heston went straight for the mute chick in the loincloth. You pulled a total Heston, didn't you?"
"I don't know about that. It was only a few minutes."
"Yeah. Sometimes that's all it takes, in my middle-aged world."


"You are so jealous."
"Yes, I am, and there's nothing wrong with that."

OMG Ziva is so pretty!
"I'm proud of Tim. I'm very proud of you."


"Did you take any pictures?"
"Please."

It's okay, I'll let my imagination work.

And the pen pays for Tony's frustration.
"Well, I am anxious to meet her. Make sure she's good enough for you."
"She is definitely good enough."
Or she'll have to answer to Ziva. Now I wishes Amanda lived and was caught, just to see how Gibbs, Ziva, and the others would have treated her.
I'm going to take off the slash goggles for a minute here. I think Tony is living the dating life by proxy trough McGee, and so, his advices.
"In my middle aged world." Awww Tony, don't be scared of the competition. Like you with your girlfriends, he'll always come back to you.
Hi Chad!

His turn for the bathroom.
"It's in your blood, isn't it?"
"What is?"
"You're thinking how you'd get him. Maybe some intense mind games, followed by sheer force? Go for the jugular, or the slow kill. You're a dangerous woman."
"Who am I getting? Agent Dunham?"
"Why would you want Dunham? I thought we were talking about Pak Su Ji."
Why the obsession with her killer side? Less obsessed than by Tim's love life, though.
Anti-Tiva interpretation: Tony showing why he doesn't want her for his love live.
Tiva interpretation: Tony's convincing himself he doesn't want her for these reasons, and Ziva will change to show he's wrong about her.



Yeah, keep the big brother thing.
"He's a field agent, a nomad. I've had enough of that in my life. I came to NCIS to settle down, to make a home for myself."
Good for her. Just not Tony. Why not Damon? Or Abby. They don't have a problem with this side of her and doesn't want her to be different.
Oh Abby. Happy, and a little jealous, and not letting that getting in his chance for love. The Eric thing is fishing for information, and provoking a little bit of jealousy. Except McGee didn't react. Also, Abby? Forget Eric. Yes, he's geeky, but Dominic is better. Or Kensi.
"Hey, McGee?"
"Yeah."
"You look, um... happy."
"I do?"
"Yeah. It's, uh... it's becoming, actually. You're, like, confident. Is there anything you want to tell me?"
"No."
"You sure? Nothing's new? Nothing at all?"
"I started seeing someone."
"I know. And I'm thrilled. I totally am. I was just waiting for you to say it."




"Word travels fast."
"Well, tell me about her. No. You know what? Don't. You don't have to. I'm just... I think it's excellent."
"Thanks, Abby."
"Hey, you know, Eric, from the L.A. Office... He's been, like, crazy helpful with this whole Kai thing."
"That's... that's great."
"I haven't met him yet. You've met him. I've only been to California once for my second cousin's wedding. But I don't really remember my second cousin's wedding, 'cause I was six, and I had this weird allergic reaction to avocados, and..."
"Abby, I really got to get back upstairs."
"Right. Definitely."
"Just let me know when the report's done."
"Hey, congrats again."

Hey, he only met her, he's not going to marry her.
She's not with them anymore.


And they're still talking movies. I love when a character shows an interest in the hobbies of someone else. If McKay ever tried golf...
"It's almost like Kai's dangling it in his face. Like she's saying, "Here I am, director. I shot another one." Look at me, ma. Top of the world."
"Who was that?"
"It was Cagney in White Heat."
"Oh, that's the one with the ballet dancers."
"That's White Nights with Gregory Hines and Mikhail Baryshnikov."




Oh Tony. You want him happy, like Abby.
Or you set up cameras in the copy room and going a little far and the 'live for me' thingy. Or wanting some porn starring McGee. One or another.
On the other side, "she's lying", and "if you believe in this kind of thing." Yeah, like Abby, not happy about it, but happy for him.
"Hmm, McGee, your McSqueeze is here."
"Amanda? How'd she get upstairs?"
"Oh, security called. I said, bring her on up."
"Surprise, surprise."
"Hey."
"Hey. I got your text, but I wanted to say good night."
"Um, Amanda, these are, uh, my coworkers. This is Tony."
"Hi."
"And this is Ziva."




"Hi there."
"Hi. It is a pleasure to meet you."
"She's lying."
"I am not."




"Would you like a slice of pizza?"
"Um, sure, yeah."
"Actually, on second thought, McGee, why don't you take her on a tour of the facility?"
"Oh, yeah, that would be awesome."
"Also, the copy room door locks from the inside."
"Um, you know what? We actually have a lot of work to do, Amanda. So, I'm going to have to take you back downstairs."
"Okay. Um, well, it was nice to meet you."
"Nice to meet you, too."
"Bye."
"Well, they seem good together. Like it was meant to be."
"If you believe in that kinda thing."






She's too sweet, it's going to end so badly!





Oh, I think Kai's killing the people who made her a killer.
Bwahahahaha! No Caff Pow! Gibbs was prepared! How long did he stay with his hands behind his back?
"What are you hiding? Oh, no! It's too late. I can't. Gibbs. You are an enabler. And I love you for it."




Awww, no! Poor McGee. But good work on being careful and professional and smart.
"I've been up all night."
"Why? What happened? Come on, you're scaring me, Tim. What, what is it?"
"Last night...last night, something didn't seem right."
"I know. You were busy. I shouldn't have come to visit. Sorry."
"Amanda, how'd you know where I work?"
"You told me. You said you worked at NCIS. I asked you and you told me. I remember exactly what you said."
"No. I never tell people that. I give them cell numbers. I give them beepers. But you knew."





She saved him! (I know Amanda, where did I see her?)
He changed, but I didn't see blood on him. Even if it makes sense.



Vance's look of worry for McGee! He still is his little favourite.
Tony's worried too, just standing there, watching him. A monastery! Naw, just try men. I can think about someone.

"Gonna join a monastery."
Yeah, Tony gave the idea!


"I hate it when he does that."
"It's totally unsatisfying."


And I was right!


Meeeep!
And now I'm feeling sorry for Kai.

Wow, okay, understood, you don't piss off Jackie. Is it wrong to find Vance's face hilarious?

Yeah, okay, I will not be late for diner anymore, promise.

And she stays calm when giving her deposition to Ziva.

Voice over? From the motivational cd? It's the intro of his new book?
"Anyone can achieve their fullest potential. Who we are might be predetermined, But the path we follow is always of our own choosing. We should never allow our fears or the expectations of others to set the frontiers of our destiny. Your destiny can't be changed, but it can be challenged. Every man is born as many men, and dies as a single one."
...so even if people said you have to be with this person, you're the one to chose. What? McGee said it!

So, will someone compare Amanda/Tim to Tony/Jeanne?
Okay, shows I watched where Amanda's actress acted... Relic Hunter and 4400 ! Yes, I remember Claudia now, it was Relic Hunter. I loved that show, it was fun, and with hot people. Never a bad thing.
In this one, Tony realizes he's not really okay with an open relationship, and McGee plays with his feeling to push him to say the word 'commitment'.
Very discreet Tony. How did you spend your days before McGee arrive in your life? But look how he prepared his explanation, with the yellow folder. "No, I wasn't looking through his things; I was deposing/getting back this file!"




"What are you doing?"
"Nothing."
"Those are none of your business. Those belong to McGee."
"They're funny."
"They're private."
"They're self-help cds. McLonely hearts ordered 'em. Download your destiny... Three easy payments of $19.95 each. Satisfaction guaranteed or your money back."
"Maybe McGee is already satisfied."
Maybe Tony's not so sure McGee's happy with him…
"Maybe there's an Easter Bunny, too."
"Tony..."
" Anyone can achieve their fullest potential. Who we are might be predetermined, but the path we follow is always of our own choosing.
"Oh, my God, turn that off."
"I love this guy. Sort of a poor man's Shatner."
"We should never allow our fears or the expectations of others to set the frontiers of our destiny."



"I've heard enough. Maybe you're the one who needs a little self-help."
"Well...See, that's where you're wrong, Ziva. I'm already enlightened. I know exactly who I am. It may not be pretty, but I am DiNozzo, hear me roar."
"Like an elephant?"
Heeee, Gibbs/Mark burned by the coffee!



"Get out of his desk."
"Getting out of his desk, boss."
"Where's McGee?"
"We do not know."
"Maybe little Timmy missed the short bus."
"Find him."
"I'll find him, and for being late, he's buying coffee."

Stupid jacket *pout*
"Here you go, sir."
"Uh, you sure this is mine? This seems like a lot for my order."
"Yep."
"And I ... "
"It was just phoned in."
"Thanks."

Oh Tony. And McGee just accepts.
(Tony or Amanda? McGee doesn't protest, so he's thinking Tony. And honestly, I thought Tony knew where McGee would be, because he knows his favorite restaurant and all, and knew he'll go there for coffee before coming to work because it's his routine, and call before, 'like, any command for McGee? Add....'. Even more when Tony called to say they got a call out, but unless the guy at the coffee messed up the command, and Tim looked into the bag and knew it wasn't what Tony wanted, or something, it doesn't add.)
6 coffees: McGee, Tony, Ziva, Gibbs, Ducky and ?
Hello Amanda. She's cute. Oh, she's direct. It's the best way to have his attention.
"I've got a ring in my front left pocket."
"Could you help me out?"
"You... the phone? "
"Yes,uh, phone, sorry."



Wow, McGee! That's the CDs' work, or you taking lessons from someone? (How cute it would be if he sincerely had no idea of how asking to take the phone in his pocket sound like?)

"Yeah, Tony, what is it?"
"We got a call out, McGoo."
"Yeah, I know, I'm coming."
"With the coffees?"
"Yes, with the coffees."
"Did you get my pastry?"
"Yes, I got your pastry."
"Well, what's taking you so long?
Are you leaving now?"
"Uh-huh."
"Get a McMove on."
Could you be a little more married couple?
Good move Amada.
I want to feel happy for Amanda, because she looks really sweet, but people sucked again with keeping spoilers behind a cut, so I know it'll end badly. I don't know how yet, except she got shot.
And we have the third apparition of Probilicious! Damn, you know him this well? Seriously, you barely look at him, and you already know it's his happy face?







"I'm here, boss."
"So nice of you to make it, Tim."
"No excuses, won't happen again."
"Danish in the car?"
"Scone."
"Chocolate?"
"Blueberry."
"I could tell you were with somebody, you know. Think I don't see that little glint in your eye, spring in your step? Spill, Probilicious. What's her name? Spill." Not that I'm jealous or something. Because we're not, like exclusive. Just friendly curiosity. Yeah.
"I'm gonna get to work now." Seeing we're not 'exclusive'.
McGee still takes the wrong order for Tony, who isn't even surprised. I think it's a thing between them, going back to Stake Out and the fight which may or may not turned into something else.
Oooh, it's the lady from LA!

"Thank you, Ziva."






"Why is she nice to you and not to me?"

*sings* The look, of looove!

*sings* The look, of feaaar!




Looking at each other to see if they're okay.

*snort* Sarah Palin!

I don't remember why I kept this cap. Maybe for the actress…*whistles innocently*
"Boss, she shot at us with a very big gun."
"It happens."
"You heard him, self-helpless. Call Metro."
"You call."
Okay, who's arguing for the sake of arguing, now?
"Okay. Then you uncuff her. Oh, you're afraid of the nurse, huh?"
"You are, too."


"I'll call Metro. You uncuff Florence Nightingale. Because it's your destiny."



And then, Tony kissed him.

Scared of the nurse! I like how they feel the need to be reeeeeeeeeeaaaallly close to each other when they have this discussion. You know, a surprise kiss would totally work as diversion or to win, simply for the shock the other will be in! With the time needed to get back in track, the winner is out! Like "I was frozen today!"
Well, she really wants Vance to find her.

"You know, when you called and said you were coming home early, I thought something was up. What's going on?"

Yeah, keep the big brother thing.
"He's a field agent, a nomad. I've had enough of that in my life. I came to NCIS to settle down, to make a home for myself."
Good for her. Just not Tony. Why not Damon? Or Abby. They don't have a problem with this side of her and doesn't want her to be different.
Oh Abby. Happy, and a little jealous, and not letting that getting in his chance for love. The Eric thing is fishing for information, and provoking a little bit of jealousy. Except McGee didn't react. Also, Abby? Forget Eric. Yes, he's geeky, but Dominic is better. Or Kensi.
"Hey, McGee?"
"Yeah."
"You look, um... happy."
"I do?"
"Yeah. It's, uh... it's becoming, actually. You're, like, confident. Is there anything you want to tell me?"
"No."
"You sure? Nothing's new? Nothing at all?"
"I started seeing someone."
"I know. And I'm thrilled. I totally am. I was just waiting for you to say it."




"Word travels fast."
"Well, tell me about her. No. You know what? Don't. You don't have to. I'm just... I think it's excellent."
"Thanks, Abby."
"Hey, you know, Eric, from the L.A. Office... He's been, like, crazy helpful with this whole Kai thing."
"That's... that's great."
"I haven't met him yet. You've met him. I've only been to California once for my second cousin's wedding. But I don't really remember my second cousin's wedding, 'cause I was six, and I had this weird allergic reaction to avocados, and..."
"Abby, I really got to get back upstairs."
"Right. Definitely."
"Just let me know when the report's done."
"Hey, congrats again."

Hey, he only met her, he's not going to marry her.
She's not with them anymore.


And they're still talking movies. I love when a character shows an interest in the hobbies of someone else. If McKay ever tried golf...
"It's almost like Kai's dangling it in his face. Like she's saying, "Here I am, director. I shot another one." Look at me, ma. Top of the world."
"Who was that?"
"It was Cagney in White Heat."
"Oh, that's the one with the ballet dancers."
"That's White Nights with Gregory Hines and Mikhail Baryshnikov."




Oh Tony. You want him happy, like Abby.
Or you set up cameras in the copy room and going a little far and the 'live for me' thingy. Or wanting some porn starring McGee. One or another.
On the other side, "she's lying", and "if you believe in this kind of thing." Yeah, like Abby, not happy about it, but happy for him.
"Hmm, McGee, your McSqueeze is here."
"Amanda? How'd she get upstairs?"
"Oh, security called. I said, bring her on up."
"Surprise, surprise."
"Hey."
"Hey. I got your text, but I wanted to say good night."
"Um, Amanda, these are, uh, my coworkers. This is Tony."
"Hi."
"And this is Ziva."




"Hi there."
"Hi. It is a pleasure to meet you."
"She's lying."
"I am not."




"Would you like a slice of pizza?"
"Um, sure, yeah."
"Actually, on second thought, McGee, why don't you take her on a tour of the facility?"
"Oh, yeah, that would be awesome."
"Also, the copy room door locks from the inside."
"Um, you know what? We actually have a lot of work to do, Amanda. So, I'm going to have to take you back downstairs."
"Okay. Um, well, it was nice to meet you."
"Nice to meet you, too."
"Bye."
"Well, they seem good together. Like it was meant to be."
"If you believe in that kinda thing."






She's too sweet, it's going to end so badly!





Oh, I think Kai's killing the people who made her a killer.
Bwahahahaha! No Caff Pow! Gibbs was prepared! How long did he stay with his hands behind his back?
"What are you hiding? Oh, no! It's too late. I can't. Gibbs. You are an enabler. And I love you for it."




Awww, no! Poor McGee. But good work on being careful and professional and smart.
"I've been up all night."
"Why? What happened? Come on, you're scaring me, Tim. What, what is it?"
"Last night...last night, something didn't seem right."
"I know. You were busy. I shouldn't have come to visit. Sorry."
"Amanda, how'd you know where I work?"
"You told me. You said you worked at NCIS. I asked you and you told me. I remember exactly what you said."
"No. I never tell people that. I give them cell numbers. I give them beepers. But you knew."





She saved him! (I know Amanda, where did I see her?)
He changed, but I didn't see blood on him. Even if it makes sense.



Vance's look of worry for McGee! He still is his little favourite.
Tony's worried too, just standing there, watching him. A monastery! Naw, just try men. I can think about someone.

"Gonna join a monastery."
Yeah, Tony gave the idea!


"I hate it when he does that."
"It's totally unsatisfying."


And I was right!


Meeeep!
And now I'm feeling sorry for Kai.

Wow, okay, understood, you don't piss off Jackie. Is it wrong to find Vance's face hilarious?

Yeah, okay, I will not be late for diner anymore, promise.

And she stays calm when giving her deposition to Ziva.

Voice over? From the motivational cd? It's the intro of his new book?
"Anyone can achieve their fullest potential. Who we are might be predetermined, But the path we follow is always of our own choosing. We should never allow our fears or the expectations of others to set the frontiers of our destiny. Your destiny can't be changed, but it can be challenged. Every man is born as many men, and dies as a single one."
...so even if people said you have to be with this person, you're the one to chose. What? McGee said it!

So, will someone compare Amanda/Tim to Tony/Jeanne?
Okay, shows I watched where Amanda's actress acted... Relic Hunter and 4400 ! Yes, I remember Claudia now, it was Relic Hunter. I loved that show, it was fun, and with hot people. Never a bad thing.

But Palmer wasn't there. Maybe someone needed two.

1. I LOVE that smile of Ziva's in the bathroom. It just makes me really happy. Reminds me that that woman is also really really adorable, along with beautiful.
2. uhhhuhhhhhnnhhhh The position Timmy's in when ducking out of the way of the crazy nurse's shot-gun blast? Those long long legs, just everything. When I watch this episode, I always try and pause it RIGHT THERE. It makes me really happy :)
I'm done!

I think the loss of weight really highlights his height, and the length of his legs.
