"McGee!" Gibbs voice rang through the squad room.
"Still no signal, Boss," McGee replied. "We've tried everything; we've put a BOLO out on Tony's car, but it was still at the hospital; we've checked his apartment and Dr. Benoit's – nothing, no sign of either of them."
"How did they leave the hospital?" Gibbs demanded.
"One of the nurses said she saw them get into a limo, but she didn't get a license plate," Tim continued hurriedly. "We're pulling video from the security cameras to see if we can get a glimpse of the car, but so far we haven't had any luck."
"Well, we know one thing," Gibbs said grimly, "the Frog has him."
"What?" Ziva rose from her seat. "How do you know that?"
"He sent a picture to the Director," Gibbs replied, "saying he'll contact her to discuss the situation."
"I knew something was wrong," Ziva muttered.
"You knew?" Gibbs turned to her angrily.
"I didn't actually know," she explained, "I felt it. Something about his relationship with his new girlfriend felt wrong to me."
"You should have shared those feelings," Gibbs replied. "We might have been able to prevent this."
"I wasn't certain," she argued, "and I didn't want it to seem as if I was jealous."
"Are you?" McGee asked.
"What, jealous?" Ziva laughed. "No, of course not. Okay, I admit to feeling left out, maybe a little ignored, and I miss the way we would flirt..."
"Uh huh," McGee grinned at her. "Ow," he said, rubbing the back of his head, "sorry, Boss."
"At least we have another direction to search," Gibbs said. "Ziva, see if you can get any information on The Frog's movements. McGee, keep trying to track down that limo."
An hour later"Ziva, anything from your sources?"
Ziva shook her head, "Nothing, Gibbs. No chatter, nothing about any big arms deals; it's almost too quiet."
"What about the CIA mole?" McGee asked. "Can the Director get another meeting with him?"
"She's trying," Gibbs replied, "but she's not having any luck. They hate her more than they hate me."
"What about Fornell?" Ziva asked. "Can he pull some strings for you?"
"I've already talked to him." Gibbs cracked his neck tiredly. "He's working on it for me, but nothing yet."
"Ducky said that La Grenouille isn't the type of man to just murder someone," McGee pointed out. "Maybe Tony's okay."
"Yes, and he's getting a stern talking to from Jeanne's father," Ziva replied sarcastically. "I doubt that he's treating Tony like a future son-in-law, McGee."
"McGee, check to see if you can get into The Frog's bank records," Gibbs ordered. "See if there's been any unusual activity lately. Find out where he has houses and whether or not any activity has been seen at any of them."
"You think he'd fly Tony out of the country?" McGee asked.
"I don't know what he'd do," Gibbs replied grimly, "I need to cover all the bases and find Tony before we're looking for a body."
