NCIS

I know,come on

Sit down

Why are you hiding?

Cause we weren't invited,Lucas

It's the after party It belongs to all of us

An invitation would have been redundant

It would have been polite

Come on They're all going to be happy to see us

They're never happy to see us at lunch

Why would it be so different now?

Because

- Come on - Okay

Hey,guys Look what we brought

They don't look so happy

Help Help,help

- I'm not even going to ask - Allow me

What are you doing,Tony?

Best deep-in-thought face

I guess there's a first time for everything

Nailed it All right,strawdawg24,beat this one

Yeah,baby

Ibeatyou com The place to compete online with anyone in anything

Yeah,it's very fun It's very addictive

Look at this guy Best air guitar Look at that guy Best do The Hustle

I mean,you name it,they got it

- "The Hustle"? - The Hustle

Saturday Night Fever? Travolta

You know

What is the point?

What is the point of any dance? It's about letting loose

It's,you know,having a good time

I meant the Web site,Tony

It's fun

It is amusement,light-hearted pleasure

I know what you're doing I know how to have fun,Tony

Really? Do tell

The hustling and the deep-thinking photos,those are all just,you know,child's play

Tell him,McGee

McGee?

Uh,I'm working on my best psycho face here

That's not bad,probie

Just need to work it a little bit at the eyebrow

See what I'm saying? See how that reads?

- See that? That's what you want - Yeah,yeah,yeah-yeah

Would you two like some time alone together?

Uh,no,boss We were just

Acting like children

You say that like it's a bad thing

Got a dead petty officer in the woods; let's go

Check out the air guitarists yet?

I'm in third place right now

Petty Officer Greg Collins Twenty-six

Worked as a boatswain's mate on the USSShenandoah

On 30-day leave

Lives alone in Norfolk

Gibbs Found a blood trail,goes this way

Leads back to the car

Run off the road

You know that just by looking?

Listening,DiNozzo The sheriff told me

Gonna follow the blood trail

Wait for me,Pocahontas

Well,this fellow didn't come here to roast marshmallows

Blunt force trauma

Glass fragment cuts on the exposed skin

Seatbelt restraint contusions all consistent with a

Car accident

Stumbles in looking for help

Yeah,well,he certainly need it

However,what is strange is that these minor abrasions were tended to,

whereas his most serious injuries were not

This explains it

These wounds are older

They show signs of primary hemostasis

First stages of scab formation

Ah,it appears our deceased had an unfortunate accident

before he had his unfortunate accident

Someone didn't know how to parallel park

I have always found it hard to park when someone is shooting at you

Found the slug in the passenger headrest

Missed its target,huh?

Got the job done

Talk to me

Well,it looks like Collins' car was shot at,boss

Several partial fingerprints on the driver's side window here

Time of crash?

Well,the kids didn't hear any gunshots or the crash,so it must've been

Wasn't a question,DiNozzo

The clock on the dash is broken

Right

7:22 p m

Hour before the party started

Shoe print The victim's?

That's not a Chuck

Collins was wearing Chuck Taylor Converse All-Stars

You know,basketball shoes That's not a Chuck Somebody else was here

- Passenger? - Yeah

Or shooter

This is getting like a Greek tragedy

Did you know that legend has it that in 456 BC

a vulture mistook a man's bald head for its prey and dropped a stone on it?

Killed him instantly

Yeah,the unfortunate fellow became known as

The father of Greek tragedy

I had no idea you were familiar with the classics,Jethro

Perhaps it's only the tragedies?

What do you got for me,Duck?

Well,like Aeschylus,our petty officer's death is both tragic and unique

He suffered two types of injury: those sustained in the car crash

and those inflicted on him prior to it,see?

This fist-shaped bruise on his forehead the gouges on his cheek by the broken jaw

He was beaten

Savagely

And he fought back as well

See,the knuckles on his right hand are skinned raw

However,Abby performed a DNA test on some skin fragments I found under Collins' fingernails

Presumably,they belong to his attacker

Our brilliant forensic scientist has now come up with something most interesting

The same DNA on Collins' bandages

Same person

The hands that pummeled the petty officer also bandaged his wounds

Whoever did this,Jethro,is both savage and a Samaritan

Hey,McGee,do you have the crime scene photos? I need to cue them up for Gibbs

Tony was supposed to upload them

Where is he?

Big Wong's It's his turn for takeout

Sothisis air guitaring?

Yeah,you know,you,uh,pretend to play the guitar

Why not actually play the guitar?

Well,because it is calledairguitaring?

Right I got that part

I still do not understand

Ziva,photos Plasma

There are two sets of tire tracks on the road near the crash

Based on the vectoring of the skids,both cars were traveling in the same direction

Bullet through the back window

I smell road rage

And I smell Big Wong

Collins swerves,rolls down the embankment

The other driver goes down looking for him

Finds a corpse and bails,hit-and-run

Shoot and run

My God,Gibbs,I'm so sorry I just

Shooter could have known Collins Ran him off the road on purpose

Well,we'll know soon enough

Abby's running the prints from the driver's side window through AFIS

Boss,I've been monitoring Collins' cell phone activity

- He just received a call - From who?

Home security service

Collin's alarm is going off

I see you like going through my photos,huh?

Yeah,I like reading

Hemmingway,Dostoevsky guess what he wrote?

The Idiot

Clear

Clear inside

But we got something

Found it in a laundry basket

Maybe the Laundromat was out of quarters

Looks like six,$700 there

They forced the latch on the back door open

- Forgot the money - Gibbs

Blood's dry At least a day old

Looks like the Tooth Fairy missed one

A couple more here Bag 'em

Ah,damn Neighbors

Come on

I'm Bruce Solomon I,uh,I live across the street

I'm,uh,Adam Parker,the duplex with the English ivy

We,uh,we heard the alarm It's been going off for 46 minutes

Um,we did a quick patrol

No signs of any suspicious activity

Let me guess,Neighborhood Watch

Mm-hmm,is Greg okay?

Petty Officer Collins is dead

- Car accident,last night - Oh,my God

Was it on Route Ten?

'Cause we've petioned the city for a turn lane there for a long time

Collins was murdered Run off the road

You don't look surprised

You have a lot of murders here on Wisteria Lane?

Well,it's a,it's a very quiet area,but ever since Greg moved in

Not so quiet There's music,parties lots of drinking

Last week,it got completely out of hand There was this whole gang of them

And then a fight broke out,but nobody tried to break it up

They were just standing around cheering It was weird

- It reminded me of,um - Tyler Durden

- Yeah,exactly - Who?

Ed Norton,Brad Pitt,Fight Club

Sorry,Ziva,we don't talk about fight club

DiNozzo

In your case,I'll make an exception for you,boss

Underground backyard brawls

No rules,no gloves,no mercy

There's a huge black market for underground fight videos

It starts in the backyard

Ends on the back road

No match on the partials from Collins' car

And this is the best of them

Partials are a little tougher
