The prompt was "lost scene." I don't own NCIS...


"There's a lost scene on the DVD."

"What do you mean a lost scene?"

"A scene on the DVD that was not in the movie."

"Why would they do that, Tony?"

"They probably took the scene out because it was not needed."

"Why would they film it in the first place, then?"

Tony sighed and shook his head. "Ziva, you don't understand. The scene was in the script, but then they went over their time limit and they had to cut it out in post-production," he explained, looking at her.

"Why did they cut it out?"

Tony put his head in his hands and sighed again. "Because, Ziva, it wasn't that important in the plot," he replied, looking over at her. It was almost pointless to try and explain this to her.

"What did they cut out?"

Tony thought about it for a moment and then shook his head again. "I think I should demonstrate it," he said slowly, moving closer to her on the couch.

His face was millimeters away from hers and Tony placed a hand on her cheek, looking into her eyes before he gently kissed her lips. Ziva was shocked, but she kissed him back. A moment later, Tony pulled away and looked down at her, smiling.

She looked up at him, smiling back, and said, "I think that is very important. They should not have taken that out."
