NCIS, Season 8
Tony:
So something interested here here, huh?
Gibbs:
There's a couple of options, but I like this desk. Old growth wood. Craftsman made.
Ziva:
[gasps] It belonged to William Faulkner! I love his writing!
Tony:
Total genius.
Ziva:
Yes! It was worth learning English just for The Sound and the Fury, or that chapter in As I Lay Dying. You know, the one with the five words where Vardaman says "My mother is a fish!"
Tony:
I don't really like his books much, but I'm a big fan of the movies he made based on other people's books. Like The Big Sleep and To Have and Have Not. I mean, he gave us Bogey and Bacall. God bless you, William Faulkner.
