"They go way back." "All the way to college." "They competed at Saint Petersburg University in the biathlon." "Isn't that the one where they cross-country ski and shoot rifles?" "TONY:" "Yeah." "As random Olympic sports go, it's sort of the equivalent of bullfighting on a trampoline." "That explains a lot." "Go on." "Well, they were friendly rivals for a while, contending for the Soviet Olympic team." "When neither of them made the cut," "Pavlenko went to law school and Sergei discovered the Afghan heroin trade." "Explains even more." "Like his soft spot for an old college buddy gone bad."

"To stay away from NCIS." "You chose to ignore it, and where are you now?" "Setting off hand grenades and hiding in alleys?" "It's not how you fall, Anton." "It's how you rise." "Remember that one?" "Which is why I called you." "To help you rise, Sergei." "With a proposal from the Russian government." "The government that wants me dead." "I convinced them to give you asylum."

"Father, Dimitri, was a Russian officer stationed there." "Nothing here about his mother." "Wait a second, I got something on her." "This report says his mother was a doctor, a Saudi national with Palestinian roots." "Apparently, the father took Sergei back to Russia when he was ten, leaving his mother behind." "Birth of some issues right there." "What?" "Am I missing something?" "You think that's what's driving him?" "No wonder the guy's pissed off." "Uh..." "Whoa, whoa, whoa." "Details." "Now." "Your predecessor at that desk," "Ziva David, had a half-brother." "Ari Haswari." "Same father." "I know the story." "Ari's mother was also a doctor with Palestinian roots." "So it's quite possible that Sergei and Ari were..." "Half-brothers." "Which would explain the depth of his hatred for Gibbs." "Should we call him?"

"Well, she was always a pushover for that manly man stuff." "God knows it worked for you." "I don't know about that." "You're the one she kept remarrying, not me." "Right?" "What the hell are we doing here?" "One fish is enough." "Where's your team with those updates?" "26 separate pieces of grenade fragments, and there's not a single fingerprint on any of them." "Not even a partial." "So what's the urgency, Miss Sciuto?" "The urgency is that this type of grenade doesn't go off by itself." "I mean, you have to turn the handle and throw it, and then boom." "But the way this one exploded required some type of detonator." "Which we never found." "But you did find it." "Or at least a piece of it." "It's this, right here." "Looks like a blob of plastic." "That's because it's a blob of plastic." "But before it melted, it was a highly sensitive, paper-thin plastic sheet that vibrates at certain sound frequencies, triggering whatever device it's attached to." "The A/V guy." "Frankie Boulos." "He said that the grenade exploded while he was doing a sound check." "Could his voice have set it off?" "It would depend on his voice." "I mean, it's more sensitive with higher-pitched frequencies." "I mean, unless the device was super close to the sound equipment." "Or if it was planted inside the sound equipment?" "Oh, yeah." "Now, this is pretty great." "What?" "Oh, yeah." "(clears throat)" "Come on, man." "Gotta eat." "Later, maybe." "Not that hungry." "Are you gonna make me ask you again?" "You mentioned before about Diane and me getting remarried." "In the end, she wasn't really so sure." "Natural to get cold feet." "No, it wasn't that." "We were arguing one night about something stupid." "I don't even remember what." "And in a fit of anger, I told her that our being together, our rekindled romance, was a big mistake." "And I stormed out." "Next day, she called." "I was in a classified briefing, so she left a voice mail." "That's why I hope" "I haven't lost my phone." "It's the only way I can still hear her voice." "I was gonna give it back to you, eventually, anyway." "DIANE:" "Hey, baby, it's me." "Um, look, can we just forget last night?" "Between Jethro's wife number two in town and..." "I don't know, let's hit rewind or delete or whatever." "I don't think we're a mistake at all, Tobias, and I pray you don't, either." "I know we can work through the petty stuff." "Jethro just texted me to meet him, but call me back as soon as you can, okay?" "I love you, Tobias." "Call me." "Every word." "I agreed with every word she said, but instead of calling her right back," "I chose to play it small." "Petty." "Serves her right." "And then she was gone." "Died thinking it might be over between us." "Not truly knowing how much I loved her." "No, she knew." ""We're making a big mistake."" "Those were the last words she heard me say." "And for that, I can never forgive myself." "Could you?" "(choked up):" "If I had a daughter, yeah." "That's her daughter, Tobias." "You want Diane to know how much you love her?" "That's the only chance you got left." "Oh." "Hey." "Hey." "Is everything all right?" "Something's come up since our interview this morning." "We want to show you a photo." "Okay." "Before the bomb went off yesterday, do you recall seeing this man?" "Uh, I don't know." "He looks kind of familiar." "Kind of?" "Mm-hmm." "What is this?" "My son needs his rest." "How many times are you going to disturb him?" "McGEE:" "Mr. Boulos, I'm sorry." "We... we have a few more questions to ask." "What did you tell them?" "Not as much as you're about to tell us." "GIBBS:" "Hang on." "What's that?" "The last part." "You're breaking up." "Wait, wait, wait, wait." "Wait, wait." "Say it again." "Can you hear me?" "DiNozzo!" "DiNozzo?" "What's going on?" "Ah... they got a suspect, but..." "I lost him." "I got cut off." "A suspect?" "Not Sergei?" "No, somebody else, but there's a connection." "They're bringing him in for questioning." "Check your cell." "Same here-- no bars." "But who cares?" "Let's go!" "Go?" "Yes." "If Sergei is involved, you and I should do the questioning." "But it's not Sergei;" "it's somebody else, and we're not done here yet." "What?" "Oh, yes, we are." "I'm done." "You think so?" "I know so." "I was just sitting here, feeling not lousy for the first time in I don't know when." "And I appreciate it, Gibbs." "Little wake-up call to my liver." "Getting to say things out loud that I never thought I'd say." "I may not be whistling rainbows just yet, but I got the message." "One night is enough." "You're right." "I need to see my little girl." "Not yet." "What do I need here, a safe word?" "What's going on?" "There's something else here." "What are you not telling me?" "Sergei is no friend." "We played together as boys in Palestine and reconnected as young men in Kabul." "Reconnected as he was making his name in the heroin trade?" "Which I wanted no part of." "I-I came to this country to pursue the American dream." "I've been doing just that for years, until Sergei walked into my shop last week." "Had to be a surprise." "Not a happy one." "He knew we had been contracted by the Navy and insisted I help him deliver a package." "A package?" "His threat to my family was clear." "I could not say no." "He placed it inside a speaker and assured me my son would be safe." "How'd your son feel about it?" "MR. BOULOS:" "I could not tell him." "And my deceit nearly cost his life." "Someone else wasn't so Luc." "TONY:" "Okay." "Where do we find him?" "I wish I knew." "When I saw him today, I wanted to kill him myself." "He saw Sergei?" "You saw him today?" "He had the nerve to call, pretending to be concerned for my son, then demanding a device." "What kind of device?" "I keep only one in stock for the proper authorities to use." "It's a transmitter that blocks cell-tower reception." "BISHOP:" "A cell-phone jammer." "MR. BOULOS:" "It's portable, long-range, (dialing) very expensive." "(line ringing)" "And he just took it." "Come on, Gibbs, pick up." "Sergei." "Not Gibbs... but Special Agent Fornell, is it?" "We've yet to be formally introduced." "I know you... you murdering son of a bitch." "Yes." "My apologies." "I meant only to hurt Gibbs." "Never realizing how much Miss Sterling got around." "Where is he?" "Like I'd ever tell you." "I took the mother of your child." "Do you think I'd hesitate to make that little girl an orphan altogether?" "Suit yourself." "(groaning)" "(grunting)" "We're back in the Russian forest?" "Out to rewrite history, Agent Gibbs?" "Turn back the clock?" "FORNELL:" "If only that were possible." "Where is Gibbs?" "This is between..." "me and him, and no one else." "This is between you and me now, Sergei." "Perhaps you don't know, Agent Fornell, what Gibbs took from me." "Oh, I know all about your family tree." "But I have a family, too." "This is for Diane." "And this?" "What is this?" "What is this?" "What?" "Well, it seems to me that you have some options." "You could drop that sidearm, raise your arms and surrender..." "Not exactly my style." "No." "Or you could run, make us hunt you down." "See what that feels like." "(click)" "FORNELL:" "I got him." "Yeah." "You feel better?" "Not even close." "Well, maybe a little." "Gibbs." "I just heard from DiNozzo and McGee." "Mishnev is still dead." "That supposed to be a joke, Leon?" "He fooled us before." "Not this time." "That's for sure." "Man, I really do look like hell." "Did you think we were lying to you, Tobias?" "Well, it's nothing a hot shower can't fix." "Amen to that, Leon." "And a hot meal with my daughter." "Well, then, our timing's perfect." "And I was thinking more of sushi?" "FORNELL:" "Whatever you want, baby." "Whatever you need, it's yours." "Well, then..." "Good night." "Good night." "Good night." "And unless you need anything else," "Jake is waiting for me." "We have much to discuss." "Go easy on him." "Good night." "What, Leon?" "Nothing." "Unless there's something I should know." "Some detail I missed you might need to tell me." "Good night, Gibbs." "Night." "(knock at door)" "Yeah, it's open." "Come on in." "(door opens)" "Open." "Why am I not surprised?" "Hello, Anton." "Don't have any vodka, but there's a cold beer in the fridge." "You are considerate... but I cannot stay." "I understand we had some success." "You could say that." "I admit I was nervous." "He was quite suspicious at first, but you were right." "When I told him you killing Nelly Benin was a fake, he bought it-- as you say-- hook, line and sinker." "People believe what they want to believe." "Had he not, we might not be having this conversation right now." "But here we are." "(speaks Russian)" "Counselor." "Thank you."
