"REPORTER: ...among the allegations, the sabotage of Pyongyang International Airport." "Thanks, Jake." "Call me later." "NSA didn't intercept the North Korean signal, but says that we should take the threat seriously." "The White House is keeping a lid on it from the press." "Only while they can." "How the hell could Dorneget be tied up with the North Koreans?" "Four months after his death." "Maybe because his computer is still alive." "You found it." "On the shelf, but not deactivated." "(phone ringing) Fire it up, McGee." "I want that thing combed from top to bottom." "Vance." "Tim, why is it still active?"

"Pull Abby in, too." "Let's just remember whose computer we're talking about here-- getting into Dorney's hard drive?" "Well, that can be an adventure on its own." "Thank you very much."

"Well, can I just say that Dorneget was some kind of crazy, amazing genius." "He had access to a lot of classified information." "McGEE:" "Well, we need answers now." "Ah, there you are, Jethro."

"Okay." "Hey, boss, we found something you've been looking for." "I'll be flying him home in a few hours, Gibbs." "But we had to prove you were alive first." "I don't understand." "How?" "It doesn't matter." "The only thing that does is what happens next." "It's your decision." "I'm sorry, Gibbs." "Where's Budd?" "He's using other kids in Shanghai, like he used me." "That wasn't his only computer hub." "He's hacking from two more." "TEAGUE:" "Why Shanghai, Luke?" "LUKE:" "He's meeting with the Chinese today." "Some sort of business deal."

"What if someone tried to backdoor his laptop to get into the Pentagon mainframe?" "You mean The Calling knew Ned was watching them?" "So, while he was watching them, they used his computer to hack into our warning system." "We've been busy searching for a link to North Korea." "Are we thinking it was Daniel Budd who armed the warhead?" "(door opens) McGEE:" "Director?" "It's Daniel Budd." "It's about The Calling." "Budd wants us to believe it's the North Koreans." "Keep talking." "But we are confident the North Korean signal is not real." "Budd manufactured it in Shanghai and hacked through Dorney's computer into our defense alert systems." "Budd did this?" "Budd knows that we constantly monitor military threats." "Through Agent Dorneget's Pentagon access," "Budd was able to create a phony red flag arming the sub's warhead." "He-he's a gamer, Director." "He's playing with us." "Are you telling me this is all some stupid war game?" "Budd is auditioning to sell his services to the Chinese." "What better way to up his price than by demonstrating how much damage he can do?" "Director, if we're being duped, I need proof." "(alarm beeping) Better make it quick." "We're detecting a second signal." "DEFENSE SECRETARY:" "Talk to me, Commander." "They're entering launch codes, sir." "Still think this is a game, Director?"

"You're a fraud." "And frauds don't get to speechify like Bond villains." "They do get to die like them." "(gunshot echoes)" "(chimes tinkling)" "(dog barks in distance)" "(seagulls screeching)" "BISHOP:" "Wish I could say it was quiet around here without you, Tony." "Tony, where are you?" "Nowhere." "Just thinking." "(elevator bell dings) Shanghai?" "Mm." "Seen enough of that place." "Ha." "You and me both." "How'd it go at juvie, boss?" "Uh, Luke's gonna be there for a while." "Then a halfway house." "TEAGUE:" "The adoptive relatives insist he's still family and they want to keep it that way." "And you still owe me for that tie." "I pay my debts." "I brought Chinese." "It looked better in Shanghai." "Eh, keep it." "My parting gift." "Oh, thank you." "Duty calls." "I'm, uh, gonna grab a flight out this afternoon." "Before you go... we, uh, wanted to give you this." "It's Ned's laptop." "It's been scrubbed of all its Intel, but there's still tons of photos and writings on there that we know Ned would want you to have." "One of the comforts I've had these last few months is knowing Ned had friends like you." "Thank you." "Thanks, Tim." "Gibbs?" "Take care of your team." "And, uh, maybe let your team take care of you." "Safe travels." "So, everything's back to normal, right?" "I guess that's all..." "cleared up." "Well, you know, I mean..." "(quietly):" "Do we need to talk, boss?" "What would you like to talk about, DiNozzo?" "Got to go." "(door opens, bell jingles)" "Hmm, well, I'll be damned." "The mountain came to Mohammed." "You can't be surprised." "You cancelled your last two follow-ups at Walter Reed and you still owe me that single malt." "Been busy." "You know, I do make house calls." "I'm not easy to shake." "Especially with patients I find challenging." "I'm a challenge?" "Oh, you know, everybody watching me telling me to take it easy." "Afraid I'm gonna break." "Are you?" "It hurts." "The pain doesn't go away." "The leg?" "Yeah, all of it." "Well, going back to work after all you've been through is, uh... ill-advised at best." "Yeah, this coming from the guy who keeps leaving private practice to work on a ship?" "I do that out of boredom." "Which I guess is just a nicer way of saying depression." "(chuckles)" "My, uh, my wife and I lost our son two years ago." "Um, leukemia." "Uh, if I wasn't back at it," "I'd be nowhere." "Literally." "Well, I am glad you're back at it." "Are you?" "Well, what does that mean?" "Mm, just a feeling I get." "You see, uh, I have two kinds of patients." "Uh, those who revere me for saving their lives, uh, and those who despise me for the same reason." "Which one are you, Gibbs?" "Things are changing." "Can't do it alone." "I've met your team." "Who says you're alone?" "== sync, corrected by elderman == @elder_man"
