FBI Agent T.C. Fornell:

FBI Agent T.C. Fornell:

Leroy Jethro Gibbs:

FBI Agent T.C. Fornell:
Who takes lead?

Leroy Jethro Gibbs:
My team's already in place.

FBI Agent T.C. Fornell:
You find out who hired them?

Leroy Jethro Gibbs:
We're working on that.

FBI Agent T.C. Fornell:

Leroy Jethro Gibbs:

Leroy Jethro Gibbs:

Leroy Jethro Gibbs:
Only because they know us.
