"It was a dark and stormy night."
"Come on, Tony, talk about a cliche. Next you'll be saying that nothing was stirring, not even a mouse."
"DiNozzo, Kate!"
"Sorry, Boss."
"Sorry, Gibbs."
"I once knew a woman that felt the ghost of a murdered child creep up on her, and lay her icy fingers on her arm. The woman's husband had died waiting for his lunch, and I always wondered whether he was haunting some wood looking for it."
"Tony, that's from Anne of Green Gables!"
"Is not."
"Is too!"
"Is not!"
"Sorry, Tony, I have to agree with Kate. It's from Anne of Green Gables."
"And how would you know that, Probie?"
"Uh, um, I had a friend that forced me to watch the movies. Why were you watching Anne of Green Gables, Tony?"
"Because Megan Follows is hot."
"She was just a kid, Tony!"
"Not in the second movie, Kate."
"I think I see something. No, it was just a cat. Gibbs, how much longer are we going to have to wait?"
"Gibbs?"
"Boss? You okay? McGee, you still there?"
"Yeah, Tony. Nothing's happening here."
"Boss? We're starting to get worr-"
"Tony? Tony! McGee, you there?"
"Yeah, I'm fine, Kate. What happened to Tony?"
"I don't know. First Gibbs, now him. We'd better-"
"No need to do anything, Kate."
"Gibbs?"
"Just making a point. You guys keep chattering like that and anybody could sneak up on you. Right, DiNozzo?"
"Yes, Boss. This reminds me of- Ow!"
