A knot formed at the bridge of Tali's nose, she sits in the outer office of the Director of NCIS Leon Vance dressed in a skirt and blouse her grandmother Ziva set out for her thinking to herself "I hate skirts!"

Nervously Tali sits with her grandmother Ziva DiNozzo, fidgeting with her mini skirt when The Director's assistant Cynthia Sumner places the phone down and announces "Mr. Vance is ready for you..."

Tali and Ziva walk the short distance from the outer office to the main office an eerie sense of calm overtakes Tali, as both she and her grandmother Ziva walk into the lions den...

"The Director's Office."

Closing the door behind them Tali remembers something "Nikita" told her once "The greatest weapon you have is charm, no matter how uncomfortable you are is to smile" Taking a seat Tali's notices Leon Vance examining her test scores telling Tali "I see from the application Ziva you are her grandmother..."

Peering over the folder Leon asks, "how...?"

Smiling at Leon, Ziva says, "Yes she is...Pouring herself some water Ziva asks, "do you remember Mrs. Jones two bodyguards...?"

Leon's mind races back eighteen years to the day Ziva was brought back to NCIS by a mysterious blond woman saying, "Ah..., yes."

Ziva tells Leon in her usual matter of fact tenor, "The the female Sharon, is mine and Gibbs daughter"

Smirking Leon tells them sarcastically, "that explains a lot..."

"What does that mean!" Tali asks in a tight annoyed tone.

"It means the Gibbs men Share certain characteristics" Ziva states in a grandmotherly tone, and my daughter shares them"

"With scores like theses you can name your duty..., take your time to think about it." The Director said.

Determined Tali looks at the director's saying "I don't need to think about it..., OSP" she says with confidence.

Leon looks at the younger version of Ziva saying, "Usually..., we require you be part of the service for two years Tali-"

Cynthia buzzes though to the office interrupting the direrctor telling him, "Director Vance you have a phone call."

Leon grumbles telling Cynthia "I am in a meeting!"

Cynthia tells Director Vance "The caller said you would say that"

Their was a silence on the other end of the line as Leon muttered, "Spit it out Cynthia"

Pausing Cynthia stated, She said Tali was trained by..., Nikita!"

Dropping the folder on the desk The Director tells Cynthia, "Put the caller though."

Cynthia replies "I had to route the call through MTAC to unscramble it sir"

Tali chuckles rolling her eyes as she says "Mrs. Jones!"

Director Vance tells them "we will pick up this interview in MTAC!"

All of them head down the hall to MTAC, Director Vance hands Tali a temporary pass to get through security.

Director Vance states "Let's go in!" On the main monitor are both Tali's mom and Mrs. Jones!

Nikita looks at the Group saying "Director Vance I hope you are taking my goddaughter's request seriously..., she was trained according to my standards"

Leon states "You never did explain who you work for."

It was Tali's mom who answered the question "And we never will, all you need to understand is We make Kidon look like schoolboys"

We are the ones they call when "The CIA" can't handle the problem..."

"Does this organization have a name" Leon asks

"The look Ziva shot Leon was, "Wrong Question"

Folding her hands and smiling, Mrs. Jones says, "It Does"

"Well" Leon asks.

In a flat cold even tone Mr. Jones said, "Director Vance if I tell you their is a high probability Jackie becomes a widow, and Jared and your daughter Deliah loose a father."

"Our organization has enemy's Director are you sure you want to know"

Pulling at his collar and raising an eyebrow Leon says nervously "I see."

Mrs. Jones looks at Tali telling her "My offer still stands Tali!"

At this point Leon turns to Tali and asks "Offer?"

Shrugging her shoulders Tali tells Director Vance "She told me..., if NCIS does not work out she would hire me, my mom is not hot in the idea!"

Leon asks "Who is your mom?"

Pointing to the woman beside Miss Jones Tali tells Director Vance "The woman beside Miss Jones"

Leon tells Tali "You're hired, I will tell Hetty to expect you."

With a broad smile Mrs. Jones says "Tell Hetty Flavius's daughter says Hello!"

Leon raises his brow at the comment asking "Jou know Hetty?'

Mrs. Jones says "We have crossed paths once or twice!
