Chapter 1
Tony had been trying to come up with a plan to get Ziva in trouble when he came across a video on YouTube dealing with practical jokes. He searched through the many offered before coming upon the one that he thought could cost Ziva the most embarrassment; and all it would take was a carbonated soft drink in a bottle with a screw top and a piece of Mentos candy. Now if he timed it just right he could get Ziva back and embarrass her, too.
"I'm going for some food," announced Tony. Can I pick up some for anyone else?" he asked. Ziva, McGee and even Gibbs took him up on his offer and Tony was out of the building with orders for pizza for everyone. He made only one change in his normal behavior he brought back not only the pizza but a couple of liters of Diet Coke and a cooler of ice.
As he walked in heavy laden with food and drink he found his team working hard with Gibbs no where in sight; he was delighted to find that Abby and Ducky had joined them. "Hey guys, I brought a couple of extra pizza just in case you two were going to eat with us," Tony said to Abby and Ducky.
"Where is Gibbs?" he asked, guessing the answer.
"He left only a few minutes ago for coffee," Ziva was quick to answer.
"Abs, would you start filling up the cups with ice; while I get the pizza out," Tony asked innocently.
"Sure Tony," responded Abby as she quickly began to fill up the paper cups with ice.
Tony waited until he heard the ping of the elevator before he turned to Ziva and asked innocently, "Ziva, that's got to be the boss, would you mind opening the coke and pouring the soda?"
He stood back a few steps as Ziva started to open the bottle and then it exploded with the cola shooting up into the room and Ziva trying unsuccessfully to get it under control and get out of its line of fire at the same time. By the time the cola stopped spurting out Ziva had been drenched with the cola and Gibbs was wearing his cup of coffee.
"DAVID!! What is the hell do you think you are doing!!" roared Gibbs as he looked down at the mess covering his squad room.
Ziva looked at him in shock; "what made it do that?' she asked in confusion.
"You shook it up!" replied Gibbs, "did you think it would be funny for me to wear my coffee," he asked sarcastically?
"What does shaking it have anything to do with it spurting out like that?" she asked with confusion.
"Are you telling me that you didn't know what shaking a carbonated drink would do," asked Gibbs sarcastically.
"Gibbs, she wasn't born here; she really might not know," replied Abby.
"But I didn't shake it up," argued Ziva, "and why would I want to have the drink all over me, too?" She added as she understood the accusation.
"Gibbs take it easy….Ziva didn't do anything wrong. She just opened the bottle and it exploded…I can't explain it," defended Ducky.
"Well, we need to clean this mess up. Ziva, do you have any clean clothes you can change into?" Gibbs asked in a calmer voice.
Tony was ecstatic…it worked and he had even managed to take a few pictures of the explosion with his cellphone camera. No one had seen him; they had all been too focused on the explosion to notice what he had been doing. 'I got you Ziva,' thought Tony with glee.
Unbeknown to Tony Abby had watched with interest as the coke had exploded and had absconded with the bottle as soon as it had stopped spurting. She had to know why it had exploded and figured that the only way that would happen would be if she ran tests on its
contents and that is what she did while the others cleaned up the mess.
By the time Gibbs and Ziva reappeared wearing clean they found the squad room back to normal and the majority of the mess cleaned up. They would leave the rest for the cleaning crew but the coke explosion had put a damper on the night and Gibbs had sent everyone home for the night with the instructions to be on time the next morning.
