Season 8 episode 5 Dead Air.

Probationary Agent Ziva David and Special Agent Timothy McGee had been sitting in the car for over 4 hours. They were waiting for their SFA Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo to finish speaking with all the neighbours in the royal woods luxury living.

Ziva was looking out around the window while Tim was nearly asleep in the drivers Seat.

*ring ring*

The sound of the mobile phone broke through the silence in the car making Tim startle awake and Ziva jump to look at it. For a few moments they both stared at the phone before a Ziva broke through the stupor to answer it.

"David"

"Hey Ziva" Gibbs voice came through the phone.

"How's it going there at the royal woods?"

"All is going well here Gibbs. We are just waiting for Tony to get back from speaking with all the neighbours."

"How is DiNozzo going?"

"Uh we would not know. We turned the speaker off a few hours ago. Listening to him speaking so much was getting. How do you say it? Grinding?"

"Grating" McGee supplied from the other side of the car.

"Yes grating on our nerves."

There was a moment of silence from down the phone line.

"You mean to tell me that you left DiNozzo in an unknown possibly hostile situation with no back up?!" Gibbs shouted out.

Ziva and Tim looked at each other then Tim took the phone from Ziva.

"Hey boss it's McGee. I'm sure Tony's fine he's..."

"McGee rule 15"

"Always work as a team boss, I know. We'll turn the speakers on now, I'm sure he's fine."

Tim hands the phone back to Ziva and grabs the laptop from the back seat. He opens it up and clicks a button. Nothing happens. He frowns and clicks a few more buttons. Ziva looks at him in concern.

"Whats going on McGee?" Asks Gibbs.

"I'm not sure" answers Tim, "it should be working."

"I'm gonna rewind the feed back a bit a see if we can figure out what's happened."

Tim begins typing away at the computer, the keys clicking the only sound to be heard. Finally Tim stops and Tonys voice can be heard through the speaker.

"Hi my names Tony, I'm thinking of moving into the area. What can you tell me about the neighbourhood?"

They then hear him talking to a few different people about the neighbourhood and the different places around the area.

"Everything sounds normal to me" says Ziva.

Tim nods but then suddenly they hear something different coming across the speakers.

"Hey, hey you!" They hear.

"Oh hey my names Tony and I'm..."

*bang*

"What was that McGee?" Gibbs barks.

"I don't know boss" Tim says as he starts typing in the computer.

He rewinds the tape and they hear the bang followed by static silence.

"McGee" Gibbs shouts through the phone.

"Something must have happened to Tony" Ziva states.

"Well the what are you waiting for? Go find him!" Gibbs shouts again.

Tim and Ziva scramble out of the car and started running towards the last place they saw Tony, two blocks down.

"I saw him go left here" Ziva shouts as they keep running.

They get to the end of the block and stop suddenly. Looking down they see tire skid marks going up the road. They start to look around and Ziva finds Tonys ear piece sitting in the gutter.

"McGee" she said quietly holding up the earpiece. Tim looks over and his eyes widen in horror. He then motions Ziva over to where he is and points down. Ziva looks at him confused then looks down to where he is pointing. After a moment she looks back up at him with a horrified look on her face as well.

Tim pulls out his phone, hits a number on speed dial and holds it up to his ear.

"Gibbs"

"Uh boss. We have a problem. It's DiNozzo. He's gone"

Tim and Ziva look at each other then down at the ground again, where there was a large pool of blood and Tonys credentials lying right in the middle of it.
