The team was bored. They had just finished up a case and had finished their paperwork. They had absolutely nothing to do. Even Abby, Ducky, and Palmer were hanging around the bull pen. Tony sighed, and wadded up a piece of paper before throwing it in the trash. McGee was working on his computer. Abby and Palmer were listening to one of Ducky's stories, and Bishop was fiddling with her wedding ring. Gibbs was glaring at his computer screen, as usual. They all jumped when Gibbs's phone rang.

"Fornell," he muttered before picking up.

"Yeah, Gibbs," he said.

The team heard a faint muttering before Gibbs put the phone on speaker.

"The FBI has a case," they heard Fornell's voice ring out. "And we may need to turn it over to NCIS."

The agents perked up.

"What's the case, Tobias?" Asked Gibbs. "Marine? Naval officer?"

"No," said Fornell.

"Then why-" Fornell cut Gibbs off.

"A cabbie was taking a woman from Reagan to NCIS, when a Sedan pulled up beside them and shot the cabbie, James Richardson, in the chest. He died, and the cab spun out and crashed. The woman was supposed to suffer, but she managed to get by with only a few scrapes and bruises."

"Who's the woman?" Tony asked. "Is she hot?"

McGee and Abby rolled their eyes.

"You're seeing her at Bethesda," Fornell said. "Come on."

"Where was the flight from?" Gibbs asked.

"You'll see," said Fornell.

"Fine," said Gibbs. "Be there in forty."

The team went to the van and drove off to Bethesda, but not until after Gibbs headslapped DiNozzo for his comment.

"Do you mind if I shower?" Ziva asked Fornell. "The nurse said I could."

"Not at all," said Fornell. "But your former team is going to be here quite soon, Gibbs is driving."

Ziva laughed.

"I will be quick," she assured him, and disappeared into the bathroom.

The Director, Eshel, and baby Arianna had landed, and were heading towards NCIS when Eshel got a message.

"Ziva was in an accident," he said. "She said to meet her at Bethesda Hospital."

The Director nodded and changed course.

Eshel looked back at Arianna.

"We're going to see mommy," he cooed, and the baby gurgled.

He turned back around.

"And daddy," he muttered.
