The liar's punishment is not in the least that he is not believed but that he cannot believe anyone else.
George Bernard Shaw (1856 - 1950)

"You're lying."

"Prove it."

"Yeah, like anyone can ever prove it. You've probably killed anyone who knows the truth."

"I have not killed anyone for a week."

"Getting a little rusty there, my little ninja?"

"I am not your little anything. Take it back or I will kill someone today. Slowly. With this pencil."

"Jeez, Ziva. No need to get out your seat. I didn't mean it. You're a very scary Mossad assassin who could kill me with her little finger… not that that's a suggestion of any sort, just an observation."

"Better."

"Phew. You stay in that chair. No, I'm not giving you an order, don't get up! That's better. For both of us. Hey, you can't kill someone by throwing office stationary at them can you?"

"It depends where I aim the pencil."

"O-kay, back on topic. You are lying."

"We went over this. Prove it."

"There is no way you beat Gibbs in a sparring session last night."

"Why not?"

"Because he would have built a sniper's nest and taken you out before you could tell anyone or teach them your secrets."

"Very funny, Tony. But like you said, I am a Mossad assassin. You do not think it would be a little difficult to kill me, yes?"

"I'm not arguing that, I'm just saying it's impossible to beat –"

"Good morning, Gibbs."

"Morning, Boss. Oh, you're limping. Does that have anything to do with you and Ziva – OW! Thank you, Boss. Getting to work, Boss."
