Ncis what was on page 57

Gibbs then tells McGee to get to the point. McGee then tells Gibbs that they think that the Marine was killed recently and somehow in a way but they can't quite explain it but in a year old cast-iron sarcophagus. Gibbs then states, "Dressed as a Union soldier? As McGee heads to do that, Gibbs hollers for DiNozzo who instantly responds and heads back to the bullpen, wondering what's up. As Ziva grabs her bag, Gibbs tells DiNozzo that he's got a murder in his field of expertise.

DiNozzo wonders if it's Multiple Homicides but it isn't. Is the killing Gang Related- nope. Defenestration- the act of throwing someone or something out of a window but Gibbs simply tells DiNozzo that it's the Civil War.

And as DiNozzo leaves, Ziva wonders about her. Gibbs tell that she's coming along, strictly as an observer and that she should hand over all her weapons. Ziva is puzzled, wondering if that's really necessary but Gibbs doesn't budge.

Ziva then removes her gun and removes the magazine before giving both to Gibbs who takes them before dumping them in his desk drawer. Gibbs then tells Ziva to hand over her back-up weapon which she then gives to Gibbs who again places it in his desk drawer. Gibbs then brings up the knife Ziva has concealed at her waist. Ziva then grudgingly removes the knife and hands it over to Gibbs who in a surprise twist tells her that she can keep the knife because he wants her to know that he knows. Ducky tells Gibbs that Sorrow's body is remarkably well-preserved and that it could be months or even years.

Gibbs then takes more photographs with Ducky stating that they'll know when they get the body back to NCIS before on going to say in the s, grave robbers raided a Southern colonel's casket-iron casket and the robbers took the colonel's weapons, jewelery and for some reason, the colonel's own head. As this goes on, Gibbs continues taking photographs of the body and casket from every angle.

Ducky then states when the local authorities found the year old decomposing corpse, they assumed that the colonel had been recently decapitated and opened a murder investigation. Gibbs states that they're not local cops and that they've still got Sorrow's head before stating that he wants to know how he died. Burns arrives on scene, informing them that she can help with that. She then greets Ducky, introducing herself while revealing that they met in Hawaii almost eighteen years ago, at the conference of identifying POW- prisoner of war remains in Vietnam and as this hits, Ducky states that it's wonderful to see Dr.

Burns again. Burns states that she still has the necklace that he gave her with Ducky stating that, "Yes. Quite the keepsake, aren't they? Gibbs then impatiently interrupts things by asking if they've got information on how Sorrow died. As Burns heads over while telling Gibbs that they took the liberty of imaging the corpse before they knew for sure that they were dealing with an actual homicide, not some sick hoax, Gibbs silently mouths, "Do you know her" to Ducky who just shrugs.

As they examine the scene, James Palmer arrives and begins covering up the body while Gibbs wonders if Dr. Burns disturbed the crime scene. Burns then states that as a forensic anthropologist, she can assure him that her examination was strictly non-invasive. She then brings up a live of Sorrow's head, stating that she's seen it before but that no-one can be certain until they get it out.

In another area of the building, Tony and McGee are passing the time by playing some games with a huge stuffed bear and as this goes on, Ziva remarks that she doesn't think that this is what Gibbs had in mind when he instructed her to observe.

DiNozzo then pretends to become the victim of a bear attack before asking Ziva if she knows how many people get killed in America by bears every year and McGee then takes some more photos. Ziva then wonders if there isn't something constructive DiNozzo could be doing. DiNozzo reveals that the casket was uncovered by a housing project going up near the Bull Run Battlefield in Manassas and that he's gotten the name and address of the company and that there's an interview and soil test scheduled for tomorrow.

McGee then states that the only thing removed from the casket was a cell phone, damaged and non-operational while McGee states that he's got the prints of the lab workers to run against any they find in or around the body and tomb before announcing that Dr. Burns was wearing surgical gloves when she picked the phone up and then last but not least, Gibbs calls on Ziva who asks about the 9 mill hole in her hat.

Gibbs then tells them that he'll escort the casket back with Ducky and that the team should meet in the squad room. Ziva then states that she would like to know if she could drive the NCIS Major Case Response Team Truck back to base because it might make her feel as if she actually accomplished something today.

A while later, the Truck is tearing along a road at a fast speed while DiNozzo tells Ziva not to go so fast. Ziva states that she always drives fast and that it's the best way to avoid possible IED- improvised explosive devices and ambushes. As Ziva overtakes a car, DiNozzo tells her that she's in America now and that she wouldn't worry about it and as she overtakes again, DiNozzo tells her to slow down or else he'll puke on her.

McGee states that it's because of his father with DiNozzo angrily rounding on McGee while snapping, "Was she talking to you, probie? While driving, Ziva states that Tony didn't get along with his father and that it explains a lot. DiNozzo insists that he got along fine with his father. Ziva then states if DiNozzo says so before telling them that she thinks it's best to talk about things instead of burying them inside. McGee asks about her father, Deputy Director David but Ziva doesn't respond, instead slamming down on the brake with DiNozzo telling her to slow down because they're taking the next left and in the process, Ziva brings the truck into the wrong lane, causing DiNozzo and McGee to yell in fright.

As soon as they're out, Ziva apologizes, stating that it's her first time behind the wheel after a six-month mission in the United Kingdom. This causes DiNozzo to throw up and a while later, Ziva's in the middle, saying that she said she was sorry while it's shown that it's DiNozzo who's now driving the truck. DiNozzo tries to tell Ziva what MSG stands for but she tells him it's Marine Security Guard before announcing that she's been to over two dozen embassies around the world.

Gibbs then walks in, asking what they've got on Sorrow. But Gibbs tells not anymore and that he wants Gibbs with Abby so that they can find out what was on the cell phone they found in the casket while Tony is on the paper trail with Gibbs wanting to know everything there is know about Staff Sergeant Sorrow by the time he gets back. As Gibbs leaves, Ziva closes her eyes before opening them again and remarking that she now knows why Gibbs took all her weapons away before she heads off.

In the morgue, Ducky emerges from a side door, dressed in his autopsy gear. He then asks his Medical Exam Assistant, James Palmer if he's ever spend an evening with a young woman and failed to remember it.

As this goes, Palmer helps Ducky put on his robe and even tie it up for him. Palmer remarks that he wouldn't mind with Ducky stating that it's not something to be admired and states that doctor today at the Smithsonian suggested that she and Ducky shared a special something in Hawaii during a conference. Palmer's still confused as to who that could be with Ducky stating that the person in question was the only doctor there besides Ducky himself.

Palmer then realizes that Ducky is talking about Dr. Burns before stating that he thought that Ducky said that Burns was young. As Palmer heads over to where the body is, Ducky examines the X-ray shots and then tells Palmer to turn Staff Sergeant Sorrow's head twenty degrees to the left.

As Palmer does that, Ducky remarks that Burns invited him out for cocktails tomorrow night but Ducky declined. Palmer wants to know why because Dr. Burns seemed nice. As Ducky makes a cut in the side of Sorrow's neck, he remarks that Burns was more than nice before asking Palmer how do someone tell a woman that they have absolutely no mental recollection of whatsoever?

Ducky glares at Palmer and wonders if his Medical Assistant has been spending time with DiNozzo again. Seconds later, Ducky produces a small silver ball before dropping it into a small container that Abby's holding and stating that it be taken to her straightaway. In the lab, as McGee works on repairing the cell phone, Abigail Sciuto is standing beside him, stating that should it do. McGee puts down the tools and remarks that's what Abby said the last eight times.

Abby just remarks that that shows just how much attention McGee pays to her before stating, "It was nine, Timmy". Abby then takes a sip of her Caf-Pow while McGee begins working again. Abby then constantly asks if they did it and if they managed to fix the cell phone's circuit board before she takes another sip of her drink. On the cell phone, various numbers keep popping up, causing McGee to remark that he believes that they did and that the circuits are but he gets interrupted by Abby glaring at him through a big microscope.

Abby states that she's had the usual but McGee disagrees, stating that she's had more than the usual because he's getting jumpy just looking at her. Abby explains that some people drown their sorrows in drugs and alcohol but she prefers to do it with caffeine.

She then tells McGee to get the cell phone hooked up and get cracking before Gibbs decides to crack McGee a new one. In the squad-room, it's night-time and Tony's at his desk, working when something catches his attention. He stands up, asking for Ziva and she responds, showing that she's standing right behind him.

As she heads around to his desk, Tony tells her to first of all, never do that again before wondering what she's doing. It then cuts to the corridor of the squadroom where Gibbs and the Mysterious Red-Head are talking to each other. Ziva wants to know how the woman with Gibbs is with Tony telling Ziva that once she's here long enough, she'll figure it out. Ziva wants to know if the woman is Gibbs's girlfriend but Tony admits that he has no idea with the two even talking over each other before Tony tells Ziva that she'll figure out that some things that the NCIS agents themselves don't ask about.

Up on the stairway, Director Jennifer Shepard pauses for a second upon seeing Gibbs and his red-headed companion. She then continues up the stairs with Gibbs saying goodbye to his red-haired friend who heads into the elevator while Ziva glances at Jenny.

Once he's said goodbye to his red-haired friend, Gibbs heads into the bullpen just as Ducky arrives in, asking Tony where Gibbs is. As Gibbs heads in, he asks Ducky what's wrong with Ducky stating that he now knows how Sergeant Sorrow died. At the look on Ducky's face, Gibbs realizes that it wasn't from a musket ball. In the morgue, as Ducky, Gibbs, Tony and Ziva arrive in, Ducky states that at first someone could assume that a projectile of such size and mass would produce almost instant death.

As this goes on, Ducky grabs some gloves and puts them on before stating that pre-Civil War muskets were notoriously unreliable and lost most of their velocity over the first hundred meters. Ducky then points to some X-rays and explains that the Sergeant was grievously wounded by a musket ball but his injury was not fatal. Ducky heads over to the table and explains that the Sergeant's lung tissue was coated with an extremely fine film of rust while saying that one can imagine how he clawed at the iron sides of his casket, trying to escape before holding Sorrow's right hand and grimly revealing that Sergeant Sorrow suffocated.

The next day, in the squadroom, as a photo of Sergeant Sorrow's decayed body is on the monitor, Ziva remarks that a Marine dressed as a Civil War solider is shot by a musket ball and then buried alive in a year old antique iron casket before she turns around to Tony and McGee who are busy eating while Ziva states, "And you're telling me this isn't your strangest case?

Ziva has no idea what she finds more disturbing: Tony and McGee's eating habits or the fact that she believes them. Tony then jokingly apologizes, wondering if their strange American food frightens Ziva, causing the group to laugh before Ziva remarks, "Not at all. I was referring to your manners. You should have brought me one". She then approaches and takes a bite out of Tony's roll which leaves Tony stunned and McGee smug.

Tony then sarcastically goes "Aha" with McGee stating that he's going to go help Abby before he leaves the bullpen. As McGee walks off, Ziva attempts to take another bite with Tony grabbing the roll back before he eventually changes his mind and gives it to Ziva. It then cuts to the stairway where Gibbs has been watching proceedings and he's interrupted by Jenny who announces that Ziva seems to be fitting in well. Jenny nods and tells Gibbs that she should've warned him because she thinks that Ziva was an Eastern European cabdriver in a past life.

It then cuts to a flashback of London where it shows Gibbs and Jenny presumably on a stakeout before they start kissing each other. Back in the present, Gibbs gives Jenny one final look before heading off with Jenny staring after him. Downstairs, in the bullpen, Ziva is asking Tony if he's sure he doesn't want his roll back because most people don't have a problem with her germs.

Tony just gives her a look and then heads over to the printer, stating that he got a lead on how their Staff Sergeant ended up in a Union solider's uniform. He then grabs the sheet and turns around while stating that the victim was a member of a local C. W, only to get startled when he sees Ziva standing behind him. Tony who's pissed off tells her that C. R are Civil War Re-enactors, guys who get together and dress up in period costumes, re-ancting famous battles.

Ziva wants to know why with Tony stating that he's been asking his father that question since he was ten years old. As she glances at the sheet, Ziva realizes that they're preparing for one of those famous battles this week in Manassas before remarking, "Quite the coincidence".

Tony grabs the sheet and states that in the immortal words of Leroy Jethro Gibbs before impersonating Gibbs that he Gibbs doesn't believe in coincidences. Tony then remarks that he was trying to tell Ziva about this lead that he found before he gets interrupted with Gibbs head-slapping him and telling Tony that he heard. Gibbs then announces that Abby found something and that they should roll.

As he heads off, Tony quickly drops the sheet on his desk before explaining to Ziva that the headslap is an American custom, a form of affection. Ziva then puts her hand up to her nose and goes "whoo-whoo-whoo-whoo-whoo" before stating that it's Larry, Moe and Curly, yes. In the lab, with some new jazz music replacing Abby's usual music, McGee is examining the coffin when Gibbs walks up, followed by Tony and Ziva.

Ziva wants to know if Abby's making a reference to that strange tattoo on her neck with Tony holding up his hand while Ziva soon slaps it away seconds later. Abby grabs a sheet from her desk and on very wobbly heals, approaches Gibbs, telling him that one of the Director's new admin weenies brought her this last night.

Abby then remarks that it's bad enough she has to wear a monkey suit for court appearances but everyday? Ziva tries to calm Abby by telling her that she looks nice but that only gets Abby further agitated. Abby then realizes that she does before she freaks out. She heads back inside and grabs Bert before she begins ranting, stating that she can't work like this with Gibbs promising he'll take care of it.

Abby doesn't hear him, instead saying that she's allergic to polyester, that it makes her itch and that it's a medical condition before stating she could get a note from the doctor. In the lab area, Ziva looks back at Tony who tells her "Don't ask" while in the room, Gibbs asks Abby if they can get back to work now? A while later, with Abby's normal music back on and Abby now in her bare feet, she tells the team that the circuit board on the cell phone was damaged but that she and McGee managed to get it working again.

Abby announces that the battery shut down on October 3rd, with McGee explaining that the last 22 calls went to while Abby states that none of the calls went through. Gibbs then wonders about the last entries with McGee explaining that Staff Sergeant Sorrow was running low on oxygen and that McGee assumed that Sorrow was trying to dial another number but hit random keys instead. As they move away from the monitor and head to the coffin, Abby tells him that there were traces of Staff Sergeant Sorrow's blood inside the cover.

Abby then rounds on Ziva, stating that since Sorrow's fingers were shredded, that must've hard to figure out before she deliberately gets Ziva's surname wrong. Abby then explains that she found two very distinct types of dirt on the outside. One was red clay which is very common in Virginia and the other had a high concentration of fertilizer.

Gibbs then asks Tony what time he's meeting the company that found this casket. Tony states that it's with Gibbs announcing that Tony should take Ziva with him so that they can see if there's anything left out of that crime scene.

Ziva looks at Gibbs while Tony announces that he's on it before Tony and Ziva both leave the lab with Ziva still glaring at Abby as she leaves. As they too head off, Gibbs studies the casket and imagines Staff Sergeant Sorrow trapped inside while on his cell phone and slowly suffocating. A while later, McGee is examining the numbers before he calls out to Abby, asking what if the numbers aren't really numbers but he gets no response.

McGee then looks around, calling Abby's name yet there's still no answer. He then leaves the computer and heads into the area where he sees Abby standing in the ballistic lab with her back to him.

It's revealed that she has three tattoos on her back: one each on her shoulder blades and a big cross in the center of her neck which are eventually covered up a single t-shirt. Abby then turns around and sees McGee staring at her, still stunned with McGee eventually looking away, having realized too late that he's been caught. Abby then walks out of the ballistic lab with McGee struggling to get himself together. Abby then approaches McGee and wonders if McGee saw something he liked.

Abby just glares at him before McGee eventually changes, stating "I mean, yes". Abby remarks that's better before wondering what McGee was going to tell her. McGee recovers and then heads back into the main lab, stating what if Sorrow wasn't trying to dial a number but was actually trying to send a text message?

They then stand in front of the monitor and as Abby examines the messages, she puts her hands, remarking, "McGee, sometimes I think I love you". In the lift, Tony and a very dirty Ziva have returned from the crime scene with Ziva wondering if they've got showers here. A very smug Tony explains that they do but that the showers are only for biological or chemical emergencies before the elevator brings them to the floor.

As they head out, Ziva sarcastically remarks, "Wonderful". Tony then announces that Ziva did say that she was sick of observing. As he reaches his desk, Tony dumps his backpack onto the ground before agreeing and saying that thanks to Ziva, they now know that.

Gibbs wants to know how it went well but Tony tells him they got nothing and that the building site was clean, figuratively speaking. The two of them then approach Gibbs's desk with Tony remarking that they've got the area taped off but they're not going to find anything. A while later, the numbers are up with Abby announcing that when they put the numbers through the cell phone's text converter, they got this.

Oxbow not on his side", McGee reads. Abby reveals that they ran Sorrow's social through the banking system and that Staff Sergeant Sorrow has a safety-deposit box paid for five years at the North Virginia Savings and Trust. Gibbs wants a warrant with McGee announcing that he already called it in. Gibbs then tasks Tony with finding out the meaning of "Oxbow" and "Kearns" with Tony agreeing to do it.

Gibbs then orders McGee to go get the safety-deposit box before also ordering McGee to take Ziva with him. As Tony and McGee head off, Ziva wonders if there's somewhere she can clean up. It then cuts to Abby who smiles with Ziva glaring back at her before Ziva leaves while Gibbs gently urges Abby to sit down at his desk.

McGee states that he's trying to help with Ziva telling him that he may get what she missed. McGee thanks her, grabs the tissue and begins cleaning. As this happens, Ziva wonders if Tony's always so Ziva asks about Gibbs with McGee going "Oh, yeah". Ziva then asks about Abby with McGee stating that Abby's usually nice. Ziva believes that it's her and that she has that effect on people.

McGee tells Ziva that it's not her and that the past month has been hard on everyone but he's glad Ziva's here. Ziva wants to know why with McGee stating that it means that McGee isn't the newbie anymore. As they head off for the bank, Ziva suddenly stops upon getting an unsettling feeling. McGee stops and wants to know what's wrong but Ziva assures him that it's nothing before assuring McGee that she's still getting used to America.

It then cuts to see that someone through some binoculars is keeping an eye on McGee and Ziva and even watching them enter the bank. In the bank, Sally Smith produces the safety deposit box from a safe and heads back into a room where McGee and Ziva are waiting.

Smith tells them that she believes that Staff Sergeant Sorrow has been missing with McGee wondering who told her that. Smith replies that it was Sorrow's brother and that the brother has inquired many times about the safety-deposit box.

Ziva asks why with Smith telling them that Sorrow's brother felt if something had happened, Sorrow would have wanted him to have it. Smith agrees but without a death certificate and a court order, then the bank's policy is to maintain the contents until the lease runs out. She then asks if Sorrow is missing. As Smith digests the news, Ziva wonders if there's anything else or can they open the box? Smith tells them that she'll be outside if they need her.

As Smith heads outside, closing the door behind her, McGee and Ziva study the box before McGee opens it with Ziva going "Oooh" and announcing that they need to talk to Sorrow's brother.

Inside the box lies an old, mummified hand holding map with a single valuable ring lying on the index finger on the hand in question. In the bank, Ziva studies the mummified hand and an ancient map and she tells McGee that this has to be his strangest case now. McGee then hangs up and tells Ziva that was Tony and that Staff Sergeant Sorrow doesn't have a brother before stating that they need to pull the bank security-camera footage and see if they've got a shot of the guy claiming to be Sorrow's brother.

Ziva then asks McGee if he knows what this reminds her of. McGee believes it's a Mossad case but Ziva tells him that it isn't and that's of a Harry Potter novel. McGee's stunned that Ziva reads the novels too.

It was when they showed the flashbacks of Gibbs and his boss and how the boss Gibbs-smacked Gibbs and it showed the evolution of the Gibbs-slap :lol:. WolfeSanders , May 24, Mine was when Ziva fineally broke down, trying to remind Gibbs who she was. Favorite Ziva lines: Ziva: You might want to do something about your hair. It's sticking up like a porcuswine. Wrong word. Like a porcupig. The little animal with the little spikeys. Yes the McGee: Porcupine. Ziva: I stand corrected. It appears he didn't know.

I feel like a donkey's butt. McGee: Donkey's butt? Tony: I think she means horse's ass McGee. Ziva: Yes. That too Ziva: I believe you refer to them as goblins. Tony: Spooks. The phrase is Spooks.

Ziva: Hannigan's on the goat. No, not goat. McGee: Lam? What's hinky? Tony: You know, like when your gut is telling you something. Ziva: I see. In my country we refer to that as gas. Ziva: It'll be like trying to find a pin in the haystack.

Tony: Needle Ziva: But, wouldn't it be harder to find the pin? Destiny , May 24, Guest , May 24, Joined: Sep 27, Messages: 9, Likes Received: 1.
