What do you mean that she's not there, DiNozzo? She went to her desk to drop off her jacket and get a file. Gibbs' patience was on a short leash. Pieces of information were fitting together in a bizarre fashion and he was beginning to suspect that Leah knew more than she was saying. As usual.

I mean she's not here. The only thing that's here is an envelope on her desk with her name on it. Tony held his cell phone to his ear with one hand as he used a pencil in the other to flip the thick package over. Looks like she might have opened it, too. The clasp has been bent a few times and the paper is creased.Get it down here, now. Oh, and Abby wants to know if there's any sign of McGee up there.Nobody here but me, Boss. He glanced around the area. But McGee's bag is sitting by the copier and there are two sets of gloves in the trash can. Tony poked at the latex objects with the pencil. Maybe he was here when Leah looked at the contents of the envelope?Bring it all down, Tony. I'm going to try her on her cell. He disconnected and dialed Leah's number, sighing. I don't know why I bother. She never answers the damn thing when I call.

Abby had dialed McGee's cell phone at the same time, having heard Gibbs' end of the conversation. When both ringing phones were promptly switched to voicemail, Abby spoke up. she began.

he asked. At her nod he swore. What do you want to bet they're together? She's probably just turned off the phones.

Kate, who had been sitting silently through all of this, inserted herself into the discussion. Why would she leave and take McGee with her?Who knows why she does anything, except to drive me insane? As Tony entered the lab, Gibbs pulled on gloves and snatched the envelope from the other man's hands.

He opened the flap and upended the container, spilling the contents on the lab table. The sound of the pictures striking the surface mirrored the collective gasp as the visuals assaulted the team.

Gibbs fought the urge to rend the photographs to shreds as Kate averted her eyes. Tony was slower to do so, admittedly fascinated at first. Only Abby stared critically at the pictures long enough to notice what Leah had. Gibbs, look... she started to point out.

I don't need to look, I was there! he spit back, furiously.

Gibbs! I'm not trying to invade your privacy! Kate, help me out here. The dark haired girl looked beseechingly from the angry man to the woman embarrassed for him. Look at the angle. Where would these have had to have been taken from?

Kate looked in surprise at Abby then grabbed a picture looking critically at it. Tony reached over her shoulder and did the same. The ceiling? she asked, looking up at her partner.

He nodded. Or a guy with a nine foot tripod. Camera tripod. Never mind. He hastily dropped the photo as he blushed. You think whoever wired Leah's house has wired Gibbs'?Good chance of it. Why leave these for her? Who's trying to send a message? Kate mused, as she began to gather the photos together. Abby, what did McGee go up to his desk for?I'm not even sure. We'd just cracked the last two names on the FBI list and he thought something sounded familiar. He wanted to check something. She cocked her head and waited.

So who were they? Tony held open the envelope for Kate to put the pictures in and then sealed it up.

Abby consulted a list, running her finger down it. Um... Ed Perry and Ian Ketterer.Whoa, wait! Are you sure? Tony was propelled upright from his lazy position. They were on the FBI team? I bet that explains why she took off!

Gibbs was inches from his face. Wanna explain it to us, DiNozzo? he snarled.

Perry was the dirty cop from that forgery case a few months back, remember? She and I were talking about him when we went to get the cold case files. She told me that Ketterer was the CIA agent who screwed her bust over. Tony stepped back and looked from Gibbs to Kate and back.

She said it was CIA, but she never gave me a name, Gibbs said softly.

I know I heard her right, Boss, she said it twice. And she hates him. If she thinks he's involved in this... Tony shrugged as he trailed off.

Kate was worried. Would she take off on her own and go after him? Gibbs snorted. Does a tornado go after trailer parks? Of all the stupid, half-assed, dangerous, idiotic... He wanted to wring her neck. When I get her back, if Ketterer hasn't killed her, I will!

Kate and Tony looked at each other for a moment, and Tony flicked his eyes toward the envelope and its contents, which Abby was already beginning to print. Kate nodded.

Tony called security to request the surveillance video from bullpen and Kate said softly, Don't worry, Gibbs. We'll find her.
