Summary: Jimmy does not think he will ever get used to a silent autopsy room.
Silence
He turns on the lights of the autopsy room and expects to hear Doctor Mallard. He expects to hear Ducky with another grand tale from his youth. Though a few tales had been recycled over the years, Ducky still had a variety of great adventures to recall and Jimmy would listen like an eager student as Ducky spoke.
But Ducky isn't there and he will never be again. Ducky will never tell another story.
Palmer stands in the autopsy room and all he hears is the hum of the coolers.
He wonders if he will ever get used to it.
