Picspam/review NCIS 7o14 Masquerade.
Oooh, the Tony/Tim is back.
"I've been listening to you complain the entire year you don't have a girlfriend, okay? All right, well, here they all are."
"Yeah, I-I'm not very good at picking up girls."
"Look, even the worst pickup lines are better than not trying. Now, come on. Give me something."
"So, is it hot in here, or is it just you?"
"Give me something else."
"So, you Jamaican? 'cause you Jamaican me crazy."
"I stand corrected. That's absolutely worse than not trying."
I'd be like the girl, I'd found him cute.
Ouch. The brother has a nice timing, though.
Tapdancing? *snort*
"Dancing lessons? You cannot be serious."
"May 25, national tap dance day. I want to be prepared."
"What if you're unprepared?"
"Well, the unprepared do not get invited to the national tap dance parties, and I want to go. I got a tweet to go to this blog that linked me to this holiday site. Do you know how many holidays there are that fly underneath the radar? It's astonishing. Lot of ladies at those parties."
"I went to an international Talk Like a Pirate day party last year."
"You did not. Excellent. Argh. Let me hear some pirate speak."
"Why is McGee wearing a tuxedo jacket?"






McGee? Ahahahaha! He's adorable. And so happy for his friend. And of course, Tony has to touch.
"Yes. Tuxedo. It's a bold fashion choice for a young investigator."
"Shh."
"Watch someone get married at work day?"
"It's an online wedding."
"Of course it is."
"Look, it's a gamer buddy from Spain. He set this up for people that couldn't make it, okay?"
"I would be laughing if I weren't on the edge of tears. This is sad."








I think Ziva is a little charmed by the wedding.
"Grab your gear. We got a..."
"He's at a wedding."
"In Spain."
"Uh, Boss, it's almost done."
"Take your time."
"I think McGee is taking this technology thing a little too far."
"And this is coming from the man who follows tweets to blogs to web sites."
Gibbs is almost used to this. Is it the marriage that makes him nicer? And Ziva just pointed how perfect Tony and Tim are for each other.


"All done, Boss. Thanks."
"Let's go. Grab your gear. Got an exploding car. Got a dead marine."
"Uh...Could I just have a minute to..."
"Nope. You've had your minute, McGee."


Does he want a marriage?

Do you want a marriage?


Ah Gibbs, always practical.



What's Tony searching? (Probably his phone.)

Oh, McGee! He forgot the head. Bowling! Oooh, Ducky is furious. McGee did look distracted.Thinking about ceremonies…



And Tony goes to McGee because of…no reason. He just wanted to. And he's doing the phone moves in the same time!
"That's weird."
"Weirder than you carrying a head around in a bag and forgetting about it?"
"What? No, no, no, no, no. See, I get a signal over here. Closer to the car, drops off in inches."
"Yeah, I got a dead spot like that in my therapist's office."
"Well, dead zones are common inside, but out...Therapist?"

So, hum, this, huh, marriage thing…






Therapist? Okay, this look at 'kneeling' is so full of innuendoes. Why did he think that would work at distracting him? Something like the red leather pants? They have their own code?
"Physical therapist."
"Why are you seeing a physical therapist?"
"I hurt my knee."
"How did you do that?"
"Kneeling."
"I don't believe you."
"Come on."



"Oh. What's that, a lie detector?"
"No. It's a Geiger counter. I just thought of something that could cause localized rf interference."
"Whoa."
"Oh. Radiation."
Aww, Tony pulling Tim away. And keeping his hand where it is. Maybe I'm imagining it, but I think he's also protecting his…little DiNozzo makers.




"First plague, now radiation poisoning. I'm starting to think someone really has it in for me."
"I was there, too, near the car, you know."
"We all were."
"But don't let that stop you from thinking about yourself."



Poor Ziva, she can't stand them anymore. How many times they had the conversation just now? I like how she's rolling her head against the van.
"This isn't about me. It's about my little DiNozzo makers. They've been nuked."
"I know!"
"Do you? I mean, sure, Tim, your kids are gonna be smart, but mine had a shot at being really beautiful."
McGee shares Tony's worries, because they planned to have children. But Tony lost some points by suggesting McGee's kids can't be beautiful.







Aaaaand they're again lost in each other's eyes. Only Ziva's mention of Gibbs reminded them where they were.



"Well, hopefully, Gibbs will bring us some good news."
"Oh, that doesn't look like good news."
"I was so worried!"
"Abby?"
Oh Abby, I love you. She's awesome.



Is it the yellow or the lipstick which makes her hair blacker? It's pretty.

"Nice work, McPanic."
McPanic? Who didn't stop complaining since you pull him away from the car?



"Dirty bomb loose in DC? We don't even know there is a dirty bomb out there."
"Nope, but it's good for ratings."

"What do we got?"
"Well, we did a preliminary workup while you were showering for the third time."


Oi, Tony? What's with the tone? Even Ziva is surprised.

"What, on my blog?"
Oh god, Gibbs with a blog.

"That and the fact that his car glows in the dark."



And one discreet little look…

Me, watching his ass? Pffft, of course not!

I thought I was discreet!


Hello Mallison!
"This is going to get ugly."
"I hope so."
Heeee Tony!

And the kids are watching not so discreetly.

Bwahahaha! I didn't remark it the first time! Ziva is leaning back while the door is closing to keep watching!


Tony brought beer for everyone. Popcorn!!!! They don't want to miss the spectacle.




Oh Ziva! Gibbs is so amused. And eating the popcorn!





"I am going to go get a haircut."







Oh, Saleem memories.


"This was just way too cool to take off. And I like the sound it makes when I move."
Did I say Abby was awesome?


"I had my whole presentation timed out perfectly. So when I said, I can still pull something off the hard drive, my decryption algorithm was supposed to... Better late than never."



Jimmy's tapdancing! Tony invited him? He really wants to go to this party.



Okay, Vance and Gibbs have some really good eyes.



"Well, working on him was... Almost orgasmic."
"Didn't really need to hear that."
Me too.





"Well, that explains the credit card charges. Cook was casing dentists' offices, looking for radioactive material."
"At the dentist?"
"It's the dirty secret about dirty bombs. Sources are everywhere. Oil platforms, medical equipment. There's too many to keep track of."
"Is the cobalt of 15 machines enough to make a dirty bomb?"
"Once the material's powderized, it's enough to make five."




"You tell Gibbs. Okay, well, get back here. There's computery stuff for you to do."
Computer stuff!


Okay, I liked Mallison there, with the chips. She could be fun if she was less 'who care if the bad guys are getting away?' about her job.




Letting him go?
"Why do I get a funny feeling Gibbs planned on using this guy as bait from the beginning?"
"Because he is Gibbs."
"Well, I sure hope I'm not around when miss Hart finds out he used her client as bait. Or maybe I do."
Oh Tony :D


Ooh, smart Gibbs. Whoah, the change from good cop to bad cop.


Smart move from the brother, using the cops.


"The joint chiefs want a sit-rep now. What can I give 'em?"
"Not Roman Vega."
"I heard. What can I give you?"
"Lawyer. "
"Already banned her from the building,"
Heeee.

You take Timmy? On one hand, I'm happy he's doing more serious stuff. And the other hand, OMG don't get hurt!!!
(On the third hand I borrowed from Torchwood via some time-travelling, yes, hurt him, and let us see the rest of the team being worried about him. More that the little bit we usually have. It's time for his whump episode.)
"Don't make me say it, McGee."
"We'll be careful, Tony."
Awwww Tony! They're both so scared, Ziva watching Tony. And with who McGee exchanged a look before going near the bomb? No, go on, guess.





"You recognize the design?"
"Not really, I mean, I know the good old black and red wires-probably supplies the power."
"We're going to have to do better than a probably."
"Well, we definitely have time to run."
"Then run."
"Well, the building's been evacuated. We just let it blow."
"Go. Leave."
"Boss, the, the threat of contamination is minimal."
"Go! That's an order. Now, leave."
"It's an order I'm disobeying."
MCGEEEEE! I love him.









Gibbs looks so proud of himself :D
"These terrorists-they get an A for terrorizing, but, gratefully, an F in chemistry."


What's Tim/Sean looking?

"You cop to it now, right now, I'll ask the attorney general to waive the death penalty."
"You got ten seconds."
"After that, you can start thinking about which vein you want us to shut you off with."
"Five seconds."
"I'll need to talk to my lawyers first."
"Oh, yeah, I bet you do."
Awesome Vance. Gibbs and he are a pretty good team.



Oh, bluffing!
Interesting, the way she pull on her vest when he talked about her suit.

…seriously? Who is playing the other?

Let's be serious one moment to apply Cat's serious research (spoilery for all the seasons, go read it!) on the writers of NCIS on this episode:
Director: James Whitmore, Jr. Did Endgame (Tony's reactions to Amanda), Broken Bird (Touching the 'egghead'), Legend Part 2 (Asking the phone just when Tim asked to talk to him).
Writer: Steven Binder. Did Reunion (Nutterbutter *rolls eyes*, no reaction to the kiss and going straight to McGee), Toxic, Murder 2.0 (defending him against Ziva, avoiding the joke about small CPU, looking at McGee's sign before going to take the awards), co-wrote Power Down (MTAC scenes and more), Bounce and Love & War.
Iiiinteresting.
(The full list is here if you want to take note of which writer/director you'll prefer.)
Next episode is by the same team who made Ignition and Truth or Consequence. There will be Tony/Tim moments. (Hmmm, if you saw it by the time you're reading this, don't spoil me, please.)
