"Zivaaaaaaa."...Tony giggled in his sleep. Ziva was laying on her side, facing away from him.

"Hmm."...Ziva started to stir, Tony was on his stomach, his arm hanging off the side of the bed.

Tony giggled again..."Tony?"...Ziva turned over to back, reaching out for Tony's arm, shaking him.

"Stop, that tickles."...Tony laughed.

"Tony!"...Ziva raised her voice, shaking him harder.

Tony awoke, raising his head, looking back at Ziva, an odd look came over his face..."What?"...Ziva asked, he pulled his hand up and hung his head over the side of the bed, but quickly raised it, moving to his back, wiping his face with his hands, groaning..."What?"...Ziva asked again.

"I think something just licked me."...Tony cringed.

Ziva tilted her head, then laughed..."Constance!"

The door opened, Tony was on his back, still rubbing his face.

"There you are!"...Constance said with a smile, she bent down next to the bed, lifting a Black Labrador puppy in her arms..."Have you been playing with daddy?"...She laughed as the puppy licked her face.

Tony opened his hands, seeing Constance holding the puppy..."When did we get a puppy?"

"Yesterday. Isn't he cute?!"...Constance cheered, she sat him on Tony's chest, the puppy started to lick Tony face..."Aww, he loves you, Dad!"

Tony coughs, grabbing ahold of the puppy, holding it above him, he cringed again, the puppy's tail wagging the whole time.

"What?"...Constance asked..."Did he hurt you?"

He coughs again, his lips together, he blows out..."I just got...tongued by a dog."

Constance and Ziva both start to laugh.

----------------

Tony was eating cereal, sitting across from Constance as she held the puppy in her left hand and eating cereal with her right. He moves his head to one side, the puppy's head seemed to follow, he shook his head, he could swear the puppy was staring at him..."How's your cereal?"

"Cap'n Crunchy, yours?"...Constance smiled.

"Done."...Tony said, lifting the bowl to his mouth, finishing off the milk.

"You want my milk, Gibbler, hmm?"...Constance spoke to the puppy, rubbing behind his ears.

"Gibbler?"...Tony asked, squinting..."As in Gibbs?"

"Yeah. Well, kinda, you know I love Futurama, right, Dad?"

"Yeah."....Tony stood, moving to sink, rinsing his bowl..."Who doesn't?"

"Well, Gibbs plus Nibbler equals Gibbler! The greatest puppy name of all-time!"

"Heh."...Tony shook his head..."Does, uh, Gibbs know?"

Constance grinned..."Not yet."

"Heh. You're telling him."

---------------

Tony sat at his desk as the elevator dinged and opened, Ziva stepped out, walking gingerly, cupping her stomach. Constance was right behind her.

Tony shot up from his chair..."What's wrong? Baby time?! Go, McGee! Operation: Baby!"

"Wha?"...McGee said, turning towards Tony, he stood, looking at Ziva..."Oh crap!"

"Stop."...Ziva said, moving to her desk, Constance held her hand to her back, supporting her the whole time, she groaned sitting down..."I am fine."

"False alarm, McGee."...Tony said, moving over to Ziva..."What are you doing here?"

"Operation: Baby?"...Ziva asked.

Tony squatted in front of her, laying his hands on her stomach..."I just don't wanna screw this up."

"Tony."...Ziva smiled, caressing his cheeks with her hands..."You won't."

"Agent DiNozzo."...Director Vance said, making everyone look up at the balcony, Gibbs, Fornell and Langer were all standing next to him..."Apologize to Agent Langer and you will not strike anyone else, is that clear?"

"Crystal clear, Director."...Tony turned back, looking at Ziva as Gibbs, Fornell and Langer made their way down the stairs..."Why are you here, Ziva?"

"I asked her to come, DiNozzo."...Gibbs declared, moving to his desk.

"Boss?"...Tony asked, turning his head in Gibbs' direction.

"It's about one of her cold cases, Tony."

"Which one?"...Ziva asked.

"JAG Lieutenant James Gallagher."...Fornell spoke up.

"The poopsicle guy?"...Constance asked, making everyone look at her..."What?"

Tony stood, moving over to her..."Constance...doctor, not a cop."

"Actually, after talking to Ducky a lot, I've decided to be a pathologist, Dad."

"We'll talk about that later."...Tony reaches into his pocket, pulling out handful of change..."Get some cocoa."

"I didn't mean, I'm..."

Tony leaned in, kissing her on the temple..."Don't worry about it. I'll come and get you when we're done, okay?"

Tony turned back, Langer was in his face..."Well?"

Tony cleared his throat..."I'm sorry I hit you yesterday, Langer."

Langer smuggly smiled at Tony.

"I should've did a long time ago."...Tony snarled, sliding past Langer..."What connection do you have to the case, Fornell?"

"Langer!"...Fornell shouted, gesturing towards McGee.

Langer pulls a memory card out of his pocket. McGee slid the memory card into a slot and started to type.

"Up on the plasma, McGee."...Gibbs said, looking up at it.

Several photos of a dead brunette woman sitting in a chair popped up on the plasma, she was naked, except for a strand of pearls around her neck, her hair was pulled back out of her face, her legs crossed above the knee, her hands ran along the arms of a wooden chair, in what looked like a hotel room, McGee gasped, looking away..."What is it, McGee?"...Gibbs asked, making everyone turn towards McGee.

Tony stepped towards the plasma..."Oh my God, is that who I think it is, McGee?"

"Does she have a tattoo of a dolphin in the middle of her lower back?"...McGee asked.

"Yeah, she does."...Fornell answered..."Do you know her?"

"Of her? Yes. Her name? No."...McGee sighed deeply.

--------------

Tony, Gibbs and Fornell stood on the balcony looking down at the squad room..."He slept with her, but doesn't know her name?"...Gibbs shook his head.

"I know it sounds like something that would happen to me, Boss, but it's truth and she ran out before telling him."

"How do you know that, Duh-note-zo?"

"I was there, Fornell."...Tony stated.

"Why the hell would you be there if he was having sex with her?"

"He wanted my help getting rid of her, it was a one-night stand and she wanted him to meet her parents and McGee is a nice guy and didn't know how to give her the brush off, so he called me and well, I'm the master of, or...used to be, you know, the master of the of the wham, bam, thank you ma'am, so..."...Gibbs slaps Tony on the back of the head..."She was total psycho, Boss."...Tony grunted, rubbing the back of his head.

They watched as Abby ran out of the elevator towards McGee, she quickly hugged him..."Are you okay?!"...McGee nodded, hugging her back.

"So, her DNA matched the sample from Ziva's cold case? She was hooker?"...Tony questioned.

"No, I don't think so. Her name was Tina Meadows, she was a librarian at Gunston middle school."...Fornell said..."This is his fifth victim."

"Fifth?"...Gibbs looked at Fornell..."A serial killer?"

Fornell nodded..."All of his victims were brunettes, all found in a hotel suites, wearing only pearls, they were sexual assaulted, strangled to death by hand, then washed, hair and all, the killer then scraped under every finger and toe nail, then posed them all in the same fashion, always in a chair."

"What does this have to do with NCIS?"...Gibbs asked.

"I think the killer is a cop, maybe FBI, Jethro."

"Why do you say that?"...Tony asked.

"Every victim was known to be regulars at bars that had a lot of police patrons."

"That makes sense, Boss, McGee mentioned that he met her at a bar near the gym, which is about two blocks from Falls Church...maybe she met the Lieutenant there, too?"...Tony declared, looking at Gibbs.

Gibbs started down the stairs..."If you needed my help, all you had to do was ask, Tobias."

Fornell started to follow, but Tony grabbed his arm..."It's Langer isn't it?"...Tony joked.

Fornell swung his head towards Tony, his face plain.

Gibbs stopped, moving back up the stairs..."Is it?"

Fornell cleared his throat..."I don't know."
