Gibbs:Hey Abbs.
Abby: Gibbs. How did we do with the moles?
Gibbs: Spooks, Abby, spooks.
Abby: I can never get that straight.
Gibbs: You still in touch with that old NASA boyfriend?
Abby: He wasn't a boyfriend, he was a boytoy, and yes, we IM almost every day.
Gibbs: You do?
Abby: Oh yeah.
Gibbs: That's good, right?
Abby: It's very good.
Boytoy: Greetings from NASA, NCIS.
Abby: Whoa, Ashton, that was so Star Trek.
Boytoy: Sorry, I'm late. I had a cluster of frozen reactor coolant heading for the flight path of an Atlas liftoff. I had to delay the launch. They were not happy about it. I am, however, very happy to see you, Abby, and to help your NCIS crime-fighting colleagues.
(In background Kate and Tony exchanging amazed looks at this entire exchange)
Tony: Maybe we can find the polar chick.
Kate: Tony's right. Beach is in a restricted area. Odds are she works at Little Creek.
Tony: Want me to track her down, boss?
Kate: Why am I not surprised? Want me to handle it? At least I won't drool.
Gibbs: No. (with a smile) No, Dinozzo took a wave for the team.
Tony:Thanks, Boss.
Gina:...I just really hate tan lines. Don't you?
Gibbs: Sometimes I lay awake at night thinking about that.
Kate: We know the killer was left handed, which eliminates Commander Tyler whose service file confirms she's a rightie.
Tony:We also know the killer's a woman unless Obermaier went Norman Bates on the guy. Actually, when you think about it the MO's match. (Makes stabbing motion at Kate's back)
Gibbs:Dinozzo.
Kate: (turns) What'd you do?
Gibbs:... and she plays golf left handed.
Kate: Whoa, wait, you could see that the clubs were left handed with just a passing glance?
Gibbs: My second wife played golf left handed.
Kate: So?
Tony:When someone tries to split your skull with a seven iron, it's not a club you soon forget.
Kate: I golf left handed, but I bat and throw right handed.
Tony: So you go both ways?
Kate: Your phone has been ringing off the hook. It's driving him crazy.
Tony:Well she is driving me crazy.
Kate: She?
Tony: Apparently Miss I Don't Like Tan Lines has found something she does like. Me.
Kate: And why is that a problem?
Tony: Well let's just say that's she's a lot more appealing from a distance. A geo-synchronous distance.
Kate: She didn't look so bad to me.
Tony:It's not that. She's just not my type.
Gibbs: (chuckles) Really? A female hardbody who likes to take her clothes off is not your type?
Tony: (looks a bit surprised) I guess not.
Kate: Talk to her.
Tony:She'll get the message.
Gibbs: (Small smile and nod)
Kate: You know I bet this is why number two came after you with a nine iron, isn't it? You just refused to sit down and talk things through.
Gibbs:Actually that wasn't it at all.
Kate: So what was it, then?
Gibbs: Seven iron.
