"Ducky, I'm gonna need the room empty when I tell her. You think you could set the body out in about ten minutes then clear everybody out?" Gibbs asked Ducky.

"Of course, Jethro. Are you telling her alone or is Tony gonna be there?"

"I think it's better if I do it alone."

"It's probably best." Ducky agreed.

Gibbs looked up when he heard the elevator ding and watched as Kate stepped off and walked towards her desk. "Listen, Duck, you get that done then call me and we'll be down." Gibbs hung up just as Kate sat down.

"Where were you?" Gibbs questioned, looking at her.

"I went down to the cafeteria to get coffee. Is that okay with you?" Kate answered, looking at him strangely.

Gibbs nodded, not particularly liking the fact that she went somewhere alone and he didn't know. But, he couldn't reprimand her because she didn't know the danger she was in. He blamed himself for that, he should've just shown her the note and the body and told her not to go anywhere alone. For all they knew this guy worked at NCIS. As much as Gibbs wanted to believe that the security was too tight for that, anything was possible. They had to suspect everyone.
