The first 200 lines.
Where is Ziva David?
And you are? Ilan Bodnar.
Mossad claims that Bodnar acted alone.
Don't do this.
I'm going to a funeral, Tony.
I'm delivering my father's eulogy.
Homeland's called twice.
Ziva.
Recent intel has him still in Rome.
I need to find her.
I think it has something to do with Bodnar.
You are tracking a CIA target.
Bodnar's not dead. He's alive.
And I'm not gonna stop until I find him.
I would like your permission to travel to Europe to find Bodnar.
He's in Rome.
Take DiNozzo.
Better late than never.
Stand by.
I was beginning to wonder.
What are you doing here?
== sync, corrected by elderman ==
Ah, McMoneypenny!
Which of these says "dashing foreign operative"
to you, huh?
This isn't exactly a Roman holiday you're going on, Tony.
Well, believe me, I have charted every aqueduct
and escape route that Rome has to offer.
I've see The Italian Job twice, both versions.
I'm all business here.
Then stop gloating.
Well, that can't be helped.
I saw the look on your face when Gibbs tabbed me to go.
You did a great job, though, helping Ziva
track down Bodnar... behind my back.
Which it's nice to hear you're finally over.
International espionage is my middle name.
Stakeout at the Pantheon,
high-speed car chase past the Colosseum,
a little romantic rendezvous at the Trevi Fountain.
You can forget Italy, DiNozzo.
Huh, boss? Why?
Come on. Going to Berlin instead.
Berlin?!
Where Bodnar is truly headed.
We were wrong about Rome?
No, we were right, McGee.
But by the time Tony and I get there,
along with every other agency,
Bodnar will have already reached his final destination.
Berlin? Really?
Yeah. You got a problem with that?
Nein. I'm just wondering how we know this
when every other agency doesn't.
Because only I know how my father taught Bodnar to think,
all his little tricks.
And since Bodnar has financial holdings all over the...
...world?
Universe, really.
What is Mossad doing here?
How do you know they're Mossad?
Because I know her. Why are they here?
Don't know, but I'll find out.
Come on.
Whenever he's ready. Thank you.
Yes, ma'am.
I'll let him know you're here.
Ziva... I was hoping I would catch a glimpse of you
in your new home.
What are you doing here, Orli?
Well, it's not been made public yet,
but I have been recently named Rosh Ha Mossad
Congratulations.
Your father...
was irreplaceable.
You have my sympathy.
Agent Gibbs, please meet the new Director of Mossad,
Orli Elbaz.
My pleasure, Agent Gibbs.
Director David always spoke very highly of you.
And your Director Vance
has been kind enough to grant me
a private word.
I think it would be beneficial if you joined us.
Both of you.
Last night a Mossad officer,
Amir Mantel, was murdered in a Virginia parking lot.
It was a professional hit.
I'm guessing he wasn't here on vacation.
He was here, as you might say, "off the books,"
Director.
As you well know,
Eli David's assassination
was orchestrated by one of our own.
Ilan Bodnar.
Yes. Here are pictures of Bodnar leaving
the United States, three months ago.
Yeah, at Dulles. We have the same photos.
If Mossad knew Bodnar had gone, why keep an officer in Virginia?
She always did ask the right questions.
You think Bodnar's got help?
Five Mossad officers went rogue
in support of his attempted coup.
Mantel believed this faction began to assemble here,
soon after Bodnar left.
So Mantel got close to your rogue officers,
they got to him first.
But what's the angle with them being here in the U.S.?
We're still working on that.
But we do know that they pose a threat
to anyone searching for Bodnar.
So you want to use us for cover.
Well, I wouldn't put it quite so crudely.
You sponsor our investigation, we supply you
with Mossad intel,
and then NCIS takes the credit.
Excuse me, Director, since this does not concern me,
Agent DiNozzo and I are ready to leave.
Rome?
Go.
Wait-- CIA and Interpol
are already in Italy; I have a team there also.
I could put you in touch, if you wish.
That will not be necessary.
Her independence lights up the room.
You molded her well.
She came that way.
Gentlemen...
from all accounts,
you and Eli left off in a good place.
I hope we can start there.
This faction poses a threat to your agents as well.
If we act together, we are stronger.
So the FBI has Officer Mantel's body?
No. You do.
Or you will momentarily.
I took the liberty.
What do you got, Abbs?
The heebie-jeebies, Gibbs.
These guys are fast. Talk about "Do it and run."
Mossad?
Yeah. There's blood on the seat, blood on the door.
Ducky got the body?
Not yet.
I don't know if Mossad's budget has been cut...
or maybe this is their idea
of a no-frills transport, but, um...
Ducky is sending Jimmy.
There's not much here beside the guy's name
and his position with Mossad.
That is all
the Mossad cleanup crew gave me when they dropped him off.
They went to where
Officer Mantel was killed to prevent the body
or any other Mossad secrets from being exposed.
Great. So much for preserving the crime scene.
They also said
that Mantel was waiting for an informant when he was murdered.
Personal effects.
He had a cell phone?
No cell phone. This is his laptop.
I'm sure they did a "cleanup" on that, too.
I'll give it a going-over.
Abbs...
you may have to get creative on this one.
That is my specialty.
Hey, um, did Tony and Ziva leave yet?
Soon. They'll call when they land.
Ladies and gentlemen,
the lights have been dimmed for your comfort.
If you would like an additional blanket at this time,
please don't hesitate to press the call button.
A flight attendant will be passing through the cabin
with headsets, if you would like to enjoy...
Ziva...
You thinking of ways
to rough up the new Mossad Director?
Orli Elbaz is an opportunist.
She's not even worthy of roughing up.
Hmm. I'd still pay to see it.
I was thinking about my father, actually.
This whole car ride, to the airport to here,
you have not asked why we're going to Berlin.
I'm officially respecting your Bodnar boundaries.
It was my father who led me to Berlin.
Ghost dreams?
Diamonds.
He had set up a network of dealers in place,
just in case he ever needed to get out fast.
He told me to set up a network of my own.
Random dealers, difficult to trace.
And since he had anointed Bodnar as his honorary son...
You thought Eli might've given him the same advice?
Bodnar had multiple accounts across Europe,
which he recently drained.
Every agency's looking for the one account
where he's pooling his resources.
While you were tracking diamond dealers.
Wow.
It's very James Bond.
