Picspam: Tony in S2
This has been an awfully long time coming - I initially promised it to be a reward to karababe_64 for passing her exams with flying colours - but that was like, ages ago. We're already nearly two weeks into 2010, and Christmas has been and gone, so this is really just a picspam of Tony just because he's pretty. Also, chreesko's and fraulein's birthdays are today and yesterday respectively, and I know they like a bit of Tony too, so Happy Birthday, guys! Also, this might tide some of you who are as excited about tonight's episode over, LOL!
My excuses for taking so long are many - including getting caught up in the show and forgetting to cap in favour of just watching. I also fainted on two separate occasions while capping this - I do have a tendency to faint anyway, but I think exposure to Tony's hotness was definitely a factor. ;-P Oh, what else? We have a really annoying, faulty smoke alarm, which has broken so badly I actually keep it in the freezer, but it genuinely kept going off loud enough that I could hear it through ice and lead whenever I sat down with the intention of capping - Tony's hotness was a factor again, I think. But the real reasons are a) laziness and b) this is quite a dark season, yeah, but no more so than in the last episode, which, I think, changes everything in the show. I don't the team is ever as happy as they are in some of these episodes again. *sadface* And I kept putting off capping because it meant reaching that really sad episode.
Um, enjoy, after that miserable introduction!
Very Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo - Season Two
Definitely a contender for my favourite season out of them all - it just has so many good episodes - funny, but dark enough that at times my lame attempts at humour just feel so wrong! Apologies for that, but hopefully the copious shots of Tony’s eyelashes will make up for it. He looks gorgeous here.
I kept up with my weird rule to only cap in multiples of three, and really tried to be strict and limit myself to no more than six per episode when taking them. My willpower kind of ebbed and flowed.
See No Evil (2x1)
1) First shot of the season. It bodes well.
2) He’s so proud of Abby, and his squinty eye is adorable!
3) Undercover Tony! Briefly. I love close-ups of his beautiful face.
4) He looks so compassionate here, listening to little Abigail Breslin cry and Gibbs be shockingly tough.
5) I’m going to give up any and all attempts to hide my freaky love for him during this spam, so you should know I really want an eyelash kiss from him.
6) Why yes, Tony, you are awesome! Welcome back, NCIS! How was this show not #1 back then? Shoulder holster!
The Good Wives Club (2x2)
1) I love him in this shirt, with this profile, being all cocky.
2) I still love the shirt, and I will never tire of that adorably hurt look on his face. I can see that I am going to be ridiculous over his eyes, this time round. They’re just so big!
3) Kate and Tony are so adorable when they’re ganging up on McGee! I love this whole scene - Tony’s scruffy cap hair is so cute, and I love that Gibbs asks him for his opinion on the weed factory they’ve found, then calls him on his knowledge about the plants and his lie about the Baltimore PD drug task force, leading to Tony’s hilariously defensive, “I have friends, we shared experiences!” Tony and Kate were totally the cool kids at college, effortlessly. They’re so happy!
4) HIS FACE! That’s so adorable, right, even though he’s stealing food from the female agent’s anorexic sister? I would also like to draw your attention to his delicate wrist and fingers. AND HIS EYES.
5) Winning over Detective Jane Eye-roll over with his charm and grin.
6) Awful cap, but Tony is knocked out, and I am an h/c junkie when it comes to him, so it’s going in!
Vanished (2x3)
1) Tony to Kate’s rescue, being hot and protective and competent. Teeth!
2) Long fingers! I just really like him in his NCIS cap.
3) Nose bump! I really like the colour of his shirt - that’s a really nice suit - and just how amused he looks by Gibbs’ opinion of the paranormal.
Lt. Jane Doe (2x4)
1) I really, really like this blue stripy shirt with that brown jacket. Back to fashion watch, apparently - but it really suits his complexion and his eyes and his hair is lovely here - I also love that he and Kate ride to work together.
2) Still in that hot combo, and talking about his parents: “You see, the whole hands over your ears thing doesn’t work, I used to do that when I was a kid and I could hear everything my parents said. They had some interesting words.”
3) I like this grey hoodie, but would have preferred it over a tee shirt. He looks cute, though. I love the hilarious way he goes for a high-five with Kate when they realise the same thing at the same time, and she’s just like, no way.
4) I love this entire scene so much! It’s Ray V. from Due South, and Tony’s wearing a leather jacket, and Tony waves away the smoke with this cute scrunched up face, and then there’s the funny:
Tony: *shows picture* Got herself raped and killed.
Ray V: Such a sweet countenance.
Tony: Sweet countenance?
Ray V: Yeah, that radiant look on her face.
Tony: She doesn’t look radiant, she’s dead.
Ray V: In that picture?
Tony: Yeah, she’s dead.
Ray V: She’s dead?
Tony: She’s dead. Why do you think her eyes are closed?
Ray V: I thought she was meditating.
The way Tony says “dead” in this scene, by the way, is strangely but undeniably hot. Tony soundspam, anyone?
5) TONY/TIM OMG HOW DID I NOT NOTICE THIS SCENE BEFORE? SERIOUSLY? I haven’t capped it because the moment is too small to show up clearly, but TONY TOTALLY SMACKS MCGEE ON THE ASS! Sorry, McNozzo shippers who got here years ago and are shaking your heads at my slowness, but I have only just clocked this! Tony’s all, “You be the Avon lady, I’ll get the rear,” and then HE SMACKS MCGEE ON THE ASS! OMG, WTF! ADORABLE!
6) Tony with gun = hot!
7) When Gibbs gets all, “Hey!” and looks over at him like he’s gonna go ape if Tony screwed up, Tony just goes “Hey!” right back, albeit much more gently and apologetically. Cool scene, though his suit is distractingly busy.
8) Not a fan of the wide pinstripe, but definitely a fan of his on-the-job mindset here, rather than just zoning out on hot lesbian fantasy, which I think some people might expect.
9) Needed to make up my multiples: Tony looks hot, McGee looks exasperated. It’s true love!
The Bone Yard (2x5)
Firstly, OMG, chreesko, the parallels with Tony and Fornell in prison here? I’d forgotten just how blatant they are. I half expected Gibbs to chuck him under the chin!
1) Awful cap, but I’m totally in love with his sportswear and that green jacket in particular. Lovely colour on him, and his hair’s great.
2) He also suits the orange tee, and has lovely big eyes.
3) Really lost my willpower here, I’m only about five minutes into the episode, but OMG this scene is so adorable. Gibbs is so ridiculously charmed by him, it’s just the cutest thing ever - they’re all so adorable and happy here and look at Tony’s legs!
4) “China!” Crazy face and Tony eating and talking with his mouth full. I love him so much! See-food is one of my favourite games.
5) Tony is really hot when he gets all up in McGee’s face about his name being Italiano - although his anger here still isn’t particularly strong. I really don’t think he likes conflict, despite his lack of fear about standing up to people and annoying them.
6) The entire scene in the clinic! Bwahaha! Their clothes! And accents!
Kate: You writing my name right?
Tony: WHAT? I just wanna know if it’s mine. She kind of sleeps around a lot if you know what I mean.
Kate: If I did, it’s cause he ain’t any good in bed.
Tony: Least I didn’t sleep with my cousin!
Kate: You slept with my sister!
Tony: I thought it was you!
Kate: She weighs 300 pounds!
Tony: She was wearing your earrings!
They enjoyed that entirely too much!
Terminal Leave (2x6)
1) Tony! Shirtless! Look at his arms and his chest hair and his hair and his lips! I love his “WHAT?” They are such a married couple, sometimes.
2) From the front! I really love his chest hair, and the fact that he’s not all that toned, and his adorable little tummy! He’s so fucking hot, it’s unreal. I also have this weird thing for seeing guys brush their teeth on TV - it’s weirdly realistic. IDEK.
3) One more.
4) Last one, I swear. *g*
5) The “nightmare” kid reminds Gibbs of Tony. I could totally see that, but I love that Tony can’t.
6) I love Tony’s running outfit! I just love him running, in general - so much so that I will ignore the awful continuity mistakes about him having his gun drawn, then not, then drawn, then not, and the fact that his stunt double’s hair is nowhere near as gorgeous as Tony’s.
Call of Silence (2x7)
This episode is pretty much awesome all on its own, it’s fantastically done - and for a great character study of Tony and tag to the episode, go read DiNozzo, entertain Mister Yost a little while longer by spae.
1) His eyes, OMG. That squinty one.
2) Using his adorable smile and charm with Yost. I love that Gibbs tells him to go be friendly - it’s what he does best.
3) Shallow, given the awesomeness of the episode, but Tony’s really, really beautiful in this. I love how much he really seems to like Yost, and respect him, and how soft and natural he is here, no acting required.
Heart Break (2x8)
This is one of my favourite episodes of the entire season - I think it’s really well done, with a storyline for almost everyone, and Paula. Tony/Paula is my third-favourite pairing, BTW.
1) Tony’s all adorably smiley when he finds out he’s going to get to see Paula, and Gibbs is totally not!
2) This is his adorable face when he first sees Paula - I love how cutely hurt he is at her initial snark, and then his flirtiness. She really is something special, like Kate says.
3) Just look how much they like one another, but because they’re so alike they’ve totally screwed it up once already. I like that they don’t tell us the full story. Also, nose bump! Even his hair is interested in her.
4) Bad cap, but this scene is adorable, where Tony’s trying to get her to take him back to her quarters for a fun, sexy time, and he does this adorable but hot spin at the bottom of the stairs that she’s totally amused and charmed by. His smile - and I really, really like this sweater. He suits this colour.
5) He looks so sympathetic to her, but with his hands tied by Gibbs. He would never be able to choose, and I think he’d have to.
6) Tony starting a tradition of snapping at McGee when he’s upset or annoyed, this time because Paula is ignoring him. He’s got lovely straight teeth.
Forced Entry (2x09)
1) This is awesome not so much for the face, but ZOMG look at his fingers. They’re so long and lean and - guh. Also, it’s hilarious that he just keeps sniffing Gibbs’ coffee and playing with it until he hands it over to McGee. Who takes it. He’s so adorably naïve. But - Tony also invited Tim to a Playboy soup kitchen thing - boyfriends!
2) His face. No, seriously, his face. I love his flirting with Lt. Kim, though, and how she’s slowly won over by his adorable persistence. “What was that you were saying before about not being married?” He looks gorgeous in this scene, I had to resist capping more.
3) Good scene - McGee’s being really practical, while Tony, interestingly, is being a little crazy about the rape and ignoring things because he seems to really hate it - they fight, and Kate has to break it up. And the dead guy in the background, too - it’s just really good TV. The next second, Tony grabs a pen out of McGee’s pocket, which is really cool too, like they can snap and snap but be fine with one another later - it’s just the job.
4) Eyelashes!
5) His hair looks great here, and I like his outfit, a blue hoodie and brown jacket, and Tony’s all like, I’m awesome undercover, and Gibbs is all, Who did you have cybersex with? and playing the cockblock routine.
6) No idea what’s happening, here, but he looks so adorable.
Chained (2x10)
If you haven’t read Family by xanthelj yet, get on it. Reccing it here is an oblique spoiler, but it’s ace. This is easily one of the best Tony episodes they’ve made, too.
1) Going for the phoof, because OMG does he look hot with the blood trickle down his chin, especially in B&W, oddly. That’s so wrong. He’s all dangerous.
2) I really couldn’t get a good cap of him wet close-up, but he’s making awesome bitch-face at Jeffrey here. There’s still a faded Snipping Tool mark there too - good work, Jules, really artistic. Fail!
3) His hick outfit cracks me up every time. He still manages to look hot in it, though, and secretly, I love his shirt. Also, his Kate description is LOL-arious, as well as being totally clever!
4) Lovely features and a five o’clock shadow. Yum. I love how soft his voice is here, too - and I like that Tony senses Lane’s suspicion and doesn’t try to convince him he’s a killer. I think he knows he won’t be able to - like there’s a limit to his acting skills. I wouldn’t believe he was a killer either, and I think maybe Jeffrey wouldn’t have been as suspicious of Tony as he revealed he was if that hadn’t been the way they decided to set the whole operation up. If that makes sense.
5) Tony’s innocent face. I think he botched that manoeuvre. Around this scene, there was also Kate and Gibbs’ failure to share in the car, and the whole relationship between Tony and Jeffrey becoming increasingly homo-erotic. This episode does everything so, so right!
6) I could have capped this scene forever, Tony looks so gorgeous in it. Has that famous line, “My father was too drunk to hurt anyone.” I wonder how that’s going to stand up next to Tuesday’s episode, because I could never tell if he was being truthful or if it was part of his undercover persona.
7) My cap quality was shit from here on out, sorry. Tony looks sexy in a car.
8) He looks great, and just … if I actually talked properly about this scene, I’d go way over the limit for LJ posts, and you’d all die of boredom. But there’s just so much going on. Jeffrey giving Tony the gun is kind of suicidal, but weirdly honourable? I’m not entirely sure of his motives, but it’s all very, very cool.
9) He looks devastated. I think I need to go read some post-episode fic, like, right now. This is kind of foreshadowing for how fucked up he gets over Jeanne, too, I think.
Black Water (2x11)
1) LOL LOL LOL. He’s actually telling Kate they only have two kids, but it does look fairly offensive. Adorable, too. Fingers! Lips! I even find his forehead lines really attractive, WTF?!
2) Blurry, but his eyes are amazing when they’re shut. They make me want to write really crappy lines of fanfic along the lines of his thick, long eyelashes forming dark half moons on his flawless skin as he slept. Also, this is the bit where Gibbs kind of cuts in over the money issue and says Tony was cut off from the family money when he was twelve - which Tony does seem to confirm. I wonder how true this will turn out to be next Tuesday. Interesting that Gibbs jumps in, too, although that could be revealed to be nothing too.
3) Is this the first time he’s been in the cute red jumpsuit? I love it! He totally suits that colour. Grin!
4) Nose scrunch. His hips are very nice in this scene, too, for reference.
5) Tony’s long speech about having money not making things easier, then kind of deflecting … I love this scene. Again, I’m really excited about Tuesday, eek!
6) I love any shots that are through binoculars or rifle scopes, and this scene is just awesome. The witch-mom from the Buffy episode, um, Witch brings up some lawyer chat, which makes Gibbs and Tony share a very cool typical look, followed by Tony being awesome, firing on the shooter, and getting the license plate. Because he’s AWESOME.
Doppelganger (2x12)
1) I will never get tired of close-ups of his face. Never ever.
2) Looking very pretty, with great hair, surrounded by lights. I also love how, quite often in this season, Gibbs will be chatting to someone, suspect or whatever, and if they’re in public Tony kind of stands just behind him and looks around like a big guard dog. It’s really hot.
3) I really love his long fingers. So much so that I re-watched this bit a couple of times, and spotted that he’s totally wearing gloves when he finds the cigarettes, then a fraction of a second later, in this cap, he’s not.
The Meat Puzzle (2x13)
1) Multi-tasking: eating ice-cream, smirking and teasing Kate all at once!
2) Anthony DiNozzo: Italian gigolo/furniture-mover. Also, OMG, those Corgis are so cute. I’m a rescue-dog girl, but if I was going to buy a puppy, a Corgi would be in my top five. Irish Wolfhounds, Corgis, Beagles, Red Setters, and Labradollies are my favourites. /off-topic.
3) Any cap with DiNozzo smiling and Gibbs being utterly charmed and amused by him makes me so very happy.
4) As do any caps involving Tony being adorable with dogs. Admittedly, this is mostly dogs and Tony’s knee, but adorable dogs are about the only thing that can out-cute Tony. He was holding two, before, but the cap was useless.
5) Smug Tony, wearing that lovely forest green shirt I like so much on him. I sound like such a wannabe wife.
6) Very blurry Action Tony!
Witness (2x14)
1) Have I got halfway through the episodes without a single reference to Tony’s nose bump?!?! Oh, no, I haven’t, I just checked and I clocked it earlier too. Whatevs, I started doing these caps like, last year.
2) “I’m going to enjoy this.” Wow, but Tony would make, like, the hottest serial killer since Mark Harmon played Ted Bundy.
3) The love I have for Tony finding clues via his weirdly strong senses knows no bounds.
4) “You may not admire his methods, but you gotta love the results.” Nosey Tony is so very competent! I love that theme they concentrated on a lot back then - not so much now, although it pops up now and again. Looks like it will on Tuesday, too. I’m so excited, guys. (Also, Kate’s face at his revelation of the yeast infection is hilarious!)
5) Anytime Tony is nice and supportive to McGee makes me feel warm all over - it’s just so sweet, especially compared to how mean he is to him the rest of the time. Like, seriously, I think I would be a nervous wreck if I worked with Tony. I’d forgive him, and put up with it, because he’s hot and mostly funny, but OMG he’d drive me insane.
6) Adorable!Action!Tony - but this time in the cutest food fight ever, followed by both he and Kate being sweet to McGee. It’s this kind of cuteness that has made me take so long over this picspam, because it’s all so nice and they’re such a lovely team, and in nine episodes’ time it’s all going to go to hell, and they’ll never really recover.
Caught On Tape (2x15)
1) LOL! Cute face, long fingers, sex pest! “Some kind of root vegetable?!” Off-topic again (it’s late, there is wine), but I had a friend - well, annoying house-mate - who once stupidly told me and the rest of our house that he practiced anal by sticking a cucumber up his butt. It still makes me laugh, and once when I was out clubbing, and drunk, and feeling very evil, clearly, I told every single person I saw that he’d done that. Cucumbers used to be my favourite snack, before that, so it was kind of a just revenge.
2) I don’t like this shirt. Cute conversation with the three of them, but even the tiny glimpse of chest hair can’t distract me from the ugliness of that shirt. Oh wait, OMG, McGee just giggled, adorably. Boyfriends! “You guys are four years old, honestly.”
3) Ooh, more Tony and McGee goodness. Okay, to be fair to both of them - Tony is actually being quite nice here, and I think he’s got a point when he says he never called McGee an idiot. I don’t think he’s ever called McGee dumb, ever - he knows how smart he is, he just calls him a nerd. But at the same time, he hazes McGee pretty much 24/7 - and McGee really isn’t the kind of guy who has been used to that kind of thing, I don’t think, so it’s understandable that he reacts that way. And look, character continuation - he gets all cocky and pushes his jacket on Tony's shoulder. I think this is a weirdly adorable scene, okay - they just don’t quite get one another here, which they do far more now. Blah blah blah. Moving on. Oh, wait, Tony looks lovely from this angle, in that NCIS cap. Moving on now.
4) Sad eyes - not a lot of things stop Tony from eating.
5) Gorgeous in profile, hilarious in failing to notice Gibbs’ creepy sneak-up tactics without the aid of Ben Gay. (Is that like Deep Heat over here, hot muscle-strain relief spray?)
6) Hee! Okay, but also, in this episode, Gibbs totally explodes a guy in his caravan, which is so wrong. It’s very snipery, but pretty fucking immoral, I think. Which, you know, is very Gibbs, even though he probably thinks he’s being Mother Theresa-esque in his rightness. (ILU Gibbs, really, but you’re such a dick.)
Pop Life (2x16)
1) I love you, Tony, but in this shirt, you cannot pull off a smug look. This shirt is the opposite of smug, it is horrific. It reminds me of my school nemesis, who used to wear this jacket that was like, a denim body, with black cardigan arms. It was hideous. Hahaha. But I don’t like Tony reminding me of my mortal enemy.
2) Okay, still cute from the neck up. Also, I adore any moment that Gibbs threatens Tony’s job. “Done or fired are the choices.” LOL.
3) From this, I’m going to hazard a guess that Tony is an ass-man. Spectacles, for all you Logan Cale fans! Kate does some hilarious dancing in this scene, BTW, while Gibbs looks half-amused and half incensed by Tony’s obvious glee. Oh, hi, Mya. NCIS is so cute when it tries to be cool.
4) Awful cap but fuck, Tony is hot in this scene, with his gun and his voice - and then hilarious with his, “Gosh, those guys were big. Big big big big.”
5) I love this hoodie, and it’s over a tee shirt this time - double love! Oh, I forgot this episode had the Mormon crack!
6) Such a bad cap, but OMG he’s adorable when he’s just been violently woken up by Gibbs’ driving. Cute!
An Eye For An Eye (2x17)
One of the best episodes of the season, and not just because Tony wears a tight black tee for most of it - it’s dark, and well-written, and horrific.
1) But partly because we get this amazing close-up of Tony’s eyes. I kind of want to lick his eyebrows, here.
2) I love this show so much. Pretty face, those bad-fanfic-inducing closed eyes, and “Work smarter, not harder, Katie.” He is uber-competent here.
3) Jeez, but he’s quick out of that car, switching from cute, stakeout banter mode to serious business in 0.02 of a second. I will never stop finding that hot. Kate and Tony are so adorable here.
4) Tony’s voice, when he sees the girl, is beyond sexy. This is the S2 Tony is competent episode, too, and I love it! I also like this sweater and tee combo.
5) But at the same time, he still does goof off when he thinks he can get away with it! Arms, okay, they’re gorgeous. I have a real thing for his wrists, in particular, but the whole arm is lovely. I wish he bared them a little more often.
6) Sleepy, relaxed, just a touch sweaty.
7) Neck! Face!
8) This episode is so very cappable. His face is amazing, as is his take-charge manner with Kate. I think she was unprofessional to scold him like that, but it’s partly his fault because he doesn’t act particularly senior to her much of the time, so his huffiness is slightly over-reacting. Fun dynamic, though, and another example of him being super smart.
9) His face when he realises their paedophile’s going to be let go. Gutting - his eyes are so expressive. What an awesome episode.
Bikini Wax (2x18)
1) Whoever decided that the majority of episodes this season should start with a close-up of Tony has my eternal gratitude. Look at his eyelashes! I also love his cute greeting to Abby: “What’s new, pussycat?”
2) LOL! Cute face, nice suit, tie and shirt combo, and a Gibbs-shops-at-Sears joke. Great start.
3) Looking very much like a Federal Agent here.
4) Oh hi, Angela from Odyssey 5, I was gutted that show got cancelled - you’re pretty bendy! I love Tony’s, “I’ll reboot,” and also, when I freeze-framed his report on his PDA, he has weirdly-but-cutely substituted Angela’s “sex” for “lovemaking”. What a sap.
5) He has a pretty face. I don’t like the sunglasses that he is not wearing in this cap.
6) They’re slightly better in this shot, but I think that’s mostly due to the Man-in-Black hotness. (I tried to start limiting my caps a bit here, because I still have that potent final disk to go - but Tony is hot in the interrogation scene, after this, and then, on Spring Break, he reveals he has the most insane laugh I have heard on TV since James May.)
Conspiracy Theory (2x19)
1) He’s so adorable, as is Abby stroking the back of his head. If I was a twenty year old junior at Georgetown, I hope I’d be smart enough to tap that. I’m still trying to work out how young I can get away with saying I am. Also, I really like his pale yellow shirt.
2) Looking weirdly turned on by the crazy girl’s come-on. Also, hi, Dean McDermott, you were awesome on Due South! (Not in cap, obv.)
3) Eyes, eyelashes, nose, nose bump. I’m skimping on caps again, so no photoshopped pic of Tony in leather - and no cap of him in his lovely red sweater, either. Sorry. Rule of three.
Red Cell (2x20)
1) Torturing McGee by way of a dinosaur impression! It’s not as good as Hugh Dennis’ - seriously, look it up on You Tube - but it’s still funny!
2) Nice suit!
3) Really nice suit, and great hair.
4) I love how terrified he looks of Gibbs here, and how Gibbs totally zones in on him - but he is wearing my least favourite shirt ever.
5) This was supposed to be a cap of Gibbs slamming Tony's arm down, but I'm in the final stages of doing this and the cap has gone missing and is on my other computer, so instead, have a promo shot that will take place at the end of the episode, with Tony's super-hot interviewing!
6) He and Kate sharing an umbrella is almost unbearably cute.
7) Hee! I forgot about this bit! “You can either lie on the floor, or I can drop you on the floor,” Gibbs says, while doing the latter! And then swinging his leg over Tony! Eee!
8) Resulting in this face! LOL! “You missed your calling, Boss. Coulda been a chiropractor.” And then, he finally calls Tony his Senior Field Agent, while yelling at him, and Tony looks delighted.
9) “The DiNozzo Method: not pretty, but it’s effective.” I LOVE THIS EPISODE! Tony is so competent and smart, and all complimentary about McGee, and letting McGee make the arrest, and insulting Kate, and wearing that hot, stripy shirt in interrogation, and switching to the serious, low, sexy voice when he gets mad about nearly having shot at an innocent kid. “You know what’s crazy? Me almost putting a bullet in a kid’s head because he’s playing paintball.” SO. FUCKING. HOT.
Hometown Hero (2x21)
1) Those long fingers … I love that this is like, one of the only times Tony actually seems to get angry on the show, and it’s over his car. What a boy.
2) “Autopsy Gremlin!” And Tony’s doing his Gibbs’ impression, although I’d argue he’s far too talkative to ever truly imitate Gibbs properly.
3) I feel sorry for this episode, because I often ignore it in favour of the last two episodes which are on the same disk, and forget that it highlights Tony’s big eyes so beautifully. My bad.
SWAK (2x22)
1) Being a Tony h/c fan, this episode is my crack, but I’m going to start on a negative note. I dislike the colour of that suit on him. I do, however, enjoy his tongue.
2) He has a lovely back, and I don’t give it enough attention when it’s clothed. He’s so solid.
3) Such a cute cap of the three of them, and of Tony’s lovely upper arm. The famous honey dust exchange!
4) From joking to serious in a second, as usual. So hot.
5) Okay, so this is where the good h/c starts, but the caps are going to crappy because of the blue lighting, so sorry in advance for that.
6) Tony’s a Buckeye! Brad Pitt and Nurse Emma are like, the cutest characters ever, by the way, and in my personal fanon they totally got together and occasionally had hot threesomes with Tony, and he went to their wedding. They are my favourite characters that pop up in fic.
7) He looks so sick - and apparently being sick gives Tony 90s British boy band hair.
8) This is such h/c porn - look at his straining neck muscles!
9) “You will not die.” This episode - jeez. It pretty much hits every single button I have. Head slap of love.
Twilight (2x23)
1) Looking like crap with raccoon eyes. I still would, though.
2) “You told him I had breast implants?” Oh, Tony. Quit digging. Your cap looks cute, BTW.
3) Where are the Tony as exotic snake dancer AUs, huh?
4) “Both of you, run.” I don’t think Tony could be more heroic than he is here. He can be such a fucking asshole, sometimes, but when it comes down to it, he really would do anything for his team. “This is not a debate.” He’s so hot.
5) I was watching this in Britain, before I’d learned about torrents, so I’d been spoiled for what actually happens in this episode, but if I hadn’t, this would have made me burst into tears. His hair looks good, though.
6) Because this episode is like, unbelievably sad, let’s lighten it up with some cute h/c (the thermometer) with some crazy (the Jack Nicholson eyes and hair).
7) Abby and Tony are so cute. I love the way she starts gossiping to him, and in my head they totally meet up over drinks and talk about everyone else like, at least once a month. So adorable. They both have very pleasing profiles.
8) “Tony, eat something.” Gibbs is so adorable in this episode, and he’s not even trying to hide the fact he’s worried. Also, whoever was in charge of wardrobe this episode did an ace job of picking clothes that were just a bit too big for Tony. They did a great job with the continuation, they made him look ill enough that I’d at least make sure he was warm and comfy before I jumped his bones.
9) His face, and eyes, when he hears that Ari’s in town. I love how sleepy his squinty eye gets when he’s tired.
10) My cap quality is getting worse, sorry, but this was supposed to show how lovely his eyelashes look. I love how Gibbs does not jump down his throat at the mention of Paula, because he knows immediately what Tony’s already thinking. And aww, Tony and Paula hook up when she’s in town. Third favourite pairing. And nose bump.
11) He and Gibbs looks so relieved she’s okay! “You’re not gonna be going to Pilates class tomorrow.”
12) That’s such a horrific shot, but it’s the last one of Tony all season. I know MW flinches too early for the blood spatter, which he adorably copped to in a French interview, but it’s got to be one of the most shocking and brave bits of TV of the decade. Everything changes from here on out.
Roll on S3!
My excuses for taking so long are many - including getting caught up in the show and forgetting to cap in favour of just watching. I also fainted on two separate occasions while capping this - I do have a tendency to faint anyway, but I think exposure to Tony's hotness was definitely a factor. ;-P Oh, what else? We have a really annoying, faulty smoke alarm, which has broken so badly I actually keep it in the freezer, but it genuinely kept going off loud enough that I could hear it through ice and lead whenever I sat down with the intention of capping - Tony's hotness was a factor again, I think. But the real reasons are a) laziness and b) this is quite a dark season, yeah, but no more so than in the last episode, which, I think, changes everything in the show. I don't the team is ever as happy as they are in some of these episodes again. *sadface* And I kept putting off capping because it meant reaching that really sad episode.
Um, enjoy, after that miserable introduction!
Very Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo - Season Two
Definitely a contender for my favourite season out of them all - it just has so many good episodes - funny, but dark enough that at times my lame attempts at humour just feel so wrong! Apologies for that, but hopefully the copious shots of Tony’s eyelashes will make up for it. He looks gorgeous here.
I kept up with my weird rule to only cap in multiples of three, and really tried to be strict and limit myself to no more than six per episode when taking them. My willpower kind of ebbed and flowed.
See No Evil (2x1)
1) First shot of the season. It bodes well.
2) He’s so proud of Abby, and his squinty eye is adorable!
3) Undercover Tony! Briefly. I love close-ups of his beautiful face.
4) He looks so compassionate here, listening to little Abigail Breslin cry and Gibbs be shockingly tough.
5) I’m going to give up any and all attempts to hide my freaky love for him during this spam, so you should know I really want an eyelash kiss from him.
6) Why yes, Tony, you are awesome! Welcome back, NCIS! How was this show not #1 back then? Shoulder holster!
The Good Wives Club (2x2)
1) I love him in this shirt, with this profile, being all cocky.
2) I still love the shirt, and I will never tire of that adorably hurt look on his face. I can see that I am going to be ridiculous over his eyes, this time round. They’re just so big!
3) Kate and Tony are so adorable when they’re ganging up on McGee! I love this whole scene - Tony’s scruffy cap hair is so cute, and I love that Gibbs asks him for his opinion on the weed factory they’ve found, then calls him on his knowledge about the plants and his lie about the Baltimore PD drug task force, leading to Tony’s hilariously defensive, “I have friends, we shared experiences!” Tony and Kate were totally the cool kids at college, effortlessly. They’re so happy!
4) HIS FACE! That’s so adorable, right, even though he’s stealing food from the female agent’s anorexic sister? I would also like to draw your attention to his delicate wrist and fingers. AND HIS EYES.
5) Winning over Detective Jane Eye-roll over with his charm and grin.
6) Awful cap, but Tony is knocked out, and I am an h/c junkie when it comes to him, so it’s going in!
Vanished (2x3)
1) Tony to Kate’s rescue, being hot and protective and competent. Teeth!
2) Long fingers! I just really like him in his NCIS cap.
3) Nose bump! I really like the colour of his shirt - that’s a really nice suit - and just how amused he looks by Gibbs’ opinion of the paranormal.
Lt. Jane Doe (2x4)
1) I really, really like this blue stripy shirt with that brown jacket. Back to fashion watch, apparently - but it really suits his complexion and his eyes and his hair is lovely here - I also love that he and Kate ride to work together.
2) Still in that hot combo, and talking about his parents: “You see, the whole hands over your ears thing doesn’t work, I used to do that when I was a kid and I could hear everything my parents said. They had some interesting words.”
3) I like this grey hoodie, but would have preferred it over a tee shirt. He looks cute, though. I love the hilarious way he goes for a high-five with Kate when they realise the same thing at the same time, and she’s just like, no way.
4) I love this entire scene so much! It’s Ray V. from Due South, and Tony’s wearing a leather jacket, and Tony waves away the smoke with this cute scrunched up face, and then there’s the funny:
Tony: *shows picture* Got herself raped and killed.
Ray V: Such a sweet countenance.
Tony: Sweet countenance?
Ray V: Yeah, that radiant look on her face.
Tony: She doesn’t look radiant, she’s dead.
Ray V: In that picture?
Tony: Yeah, she’s dead.
Ray V: She’s dead?
Tony: She’s dead. Why do you think her eyes are closed?
Ray V: I thought she was meditating.
The way Tony says “dead” in this scene, by the way, is strangely but undeniably hot. Tony soundspam, anyone?
5) TONY/TIM OMG HOW DID I NOT NOTICE THIS SCENE BEFORE? SERIOUSLY? I haven’t capped it because the moment is too small to show up clearly, but TONY TOTALLY SMACKS MCGEE ON THE ASS! Sorry, McNozzo shippers who got here years ago and are shaking your heads at my slowness, but I have only just clocked this! Tony’s all, “You be the Avon lady, I’ll get the rear,” and then HE SMACKS MCGEE ON THE ASS! OMG, WTF! ADORABLE!
6) Tony with gun = hot!
7) When Gibbs gets all, “Hey!” and looks over at him like he’s gonna go ape if Tony screwed up, Tony just goes “Hey!” right back, albeit much more gently and apologetically. Cool scene, though his suit is distractingly busy.
8) Not a fan of the wide pinstripe, but definitely a fan of his on-the-job mindset here, rather than just zoning out on hot lesbian fantasy, which I think some people might expect.
9) Needed to make up my multiples: Tony looks hot, McGee looks exasperated. It’s true love!
The Bone Yard (2x5)
Firstly, OMG, chreesko, the parallels with Tony and Fornell in prison here? I’d forgotten just how blatant they are. I half expected Gibbs to chuck him under the chin!
1) Awful cap, but I’m totally in love with his sportswear and that green jacket in particular. Lovely colour on him, and his hair’s great.
2) He also suits the orange tee, and has lovely big eyes.
3) Really lost my willpower here, I’m only about five minutes into the episode, but OMG this scene is so adorable. Gibbs is so ridiculously charmed by him, it’s just the cutest thing ever - they’re all so adorable and happy here and look at Tony’s legs!
4) “China!” Crazy face and Tony eating and talking with his mouth full. I love him so much! See-food is one of my favourite games.
5) Tony is really hot when he gets all up in McGee’s face about his name being Italiano - although his anger here still isn’t particularly strong. I really don’t think he likes conflict, despite his lack of fear about standing up to people and annoying them.
6) The entire scene in the clinic! Bwahaha! Their clothes! And accents!
Kate: You writing my name right?
Tony: WHAT? I just wanna know if it’s mine. She kind of sleeps around a lot if you know what I mean.
Kate: If I did, it’s cause he ain’t any good in bed.
Tony: Least I didn’t sleep with my cousin!
Kate: You slept with my sister!
Tony: I thought it was you!
Kate: She weighs 300 pounds!
Tony: She was wearing your earrings!
They enjoyed that entirely too much!
Terminal Leave (2x6)
1) Tony! Shirtless! Look at his arms and his chest hair and his hair and his lips! I love his “WHAT?” They are such a married couple, sometimes.
2) From the front! I really love his chest hair, and the fact that he’s not all that toned, and his adorable little tummy! He’s so fucking hot, it’s unreal. I also have this weird thing for seeing guys brush their teeth on TV - it’s weirdly realistic. IDEK.
3) One more.
4) Last one, I swear. *g*
5) The “nightmare” kid reminds Gibbs of Tony. I could totally see that, but I love that Tony can’t.
6) I love Tony’s running outfit! I just love him running, in general - so much so that I will ignore the awful continuity mistakes about him having his gun drawn, then not, then drawn, then not, and the fact that his stunt double’s hair is nowhere near as gorgeous as Tony’s.
Call of Silence (2x7)
This episode is pretty much awesome all on its own, it’s fantastically done - and for a great character study of Tony and tag to the episode, go read DiNozzo, entertain Mister Yost a little while longer by spae.
1) His eyes, OMG. That squinty one.
2) Using his adorable smile and charm with Yost. I love that Gibbs tells him to go be friendly - it’s what he does best.
3) Shallow, given the awesomeness of the episode, but Tony’s really, really beautiful in this. I love how much he really seems to like Yost, and respect him, and how soft and natural he is here, no acting required.
Heart Break (2x8)
This is one of my favourite episodes of the entire season - I think it’s really well done, with a storyline for almost everyone, and Paula. Tony/Paula is my third-favourite pairing, BTW.
1) Tony’s all adorably smiley when he finds out he’s going to get to see Paula, and Gibbs is totally not!
2) This is his adorable face when he first sees Paula - I love how cutely hurt he is at her initial snark, and then his flirtiness. She really is something special, like Kate says.
3) Just look how much they like one another, but because they’re so alike they’ve totally screwed it up once already. I like that they don’t tell us the full story. Also, nose bump! Even his hair is interested in her.
4) Bad cap, but this scene is adorable, where Tony’s trying to get her to take him back to her quarters for a fun, sexy time, and he does this adorable but hot spin at the bottom of the stairs that she’s totally amused and charmed by. His smile - and I really, really like this sweater. He suits this colour.
5) He looks so sympathetic to her, but with his hands tied by Gibbs. He would never be able to choose, and I think he’d have to.
6) Tony starting a tradition of snapping at McGee when he’s upset or annoyed, this time because Paula is ignoring him. He’s got lovely straight teeth.
Forced Entry (2x09)
1) This is awesome not so much for the face, but ZOMG look at his fingers. They’re so long and lean and - guh. Also, it’s hilarious that he just keeps sniffing Gibbs’ coffee and playing with it until he hands it over to McGee. Who takes it. He’s so adorably naïve. But - Tony also invited Tim to a Playboy soup kitchen thing - boyfriends!
2) His face. No, seriously, his face. I love his flirting with Lt. Kim, though, and how she’s slowly won over by his adorable persistence. “What was that you were saying before about not being married?” He looks gorgeous in this scene, I had to resist capping more.
3) Good scene - McGee’s being really practical, while Tony, interestingly, is being a little crazy about the rape and ignoring things because he seems to really hate it - they fight, and Kate has to break it up. And the dead guy in the background, too - it’s just really good TV. The next second, Tony grabs a pen out of McGee’s pocket, which is really cool too, like they can snap and snap but be fine with one another later - it’s just the job.
4) Eyelashes!
5) His hair looks great here, and I like his outfit, a blue hoodie and brown jacket, and Tony’s all like, I’m awesome undercover, and Gibbs is all, Who did you have cybersex with? and playing the cockblock routine.
6) No idea what’s happening, here, but he looks so adorable.
Chained (2x10)
If you haven’t read Family by xanthelj yet, get on it. Reccing it here is an oblique spoiler, but it’s ace. This is easily one of the best Tony episodes they’ve made, too.
1) Going for the phoof, because OMG does he look hot with the blood trickle down his chin, especially in B&W, oddly. That’s so wrong. He’s all dangerous.
2) I really couldn’t get a good cap of him wet close-up, but he’s making awesome bitch-face at Jeffrey here. There’s still a faded Snipping Tool mark there too - good work, Jules, really artistic. Fail!
3) His hick outfit cracks me up every time. He still manages to look hot in it, though, and secretly, I love his shirt. Also, his Kate description is LOL-arious, as well as being totally clever!
4) Lovely features and a five o’clock shadow. Yum. I love how soft his voice is here, too - and I like that Tony senses Lane’s suspicion and doesn’t try to convince him he’s a killer. I think he knows he won’t be able to - like there’s a limit to his acting skills. I wouldn’t believe he was a killer either, and I think maybe Jeffrey wouldn’t have been as suspicious of Tony as he revealed he was if that hadn’t been the way they decided to set the whole operation up. If that makes sense.
5) Tony’s innocent face. I think he botched that manoeuvre. Around this scene, there was also Kate and Gibbs’ failure to share in the car, and the whole relationship between Tony and Jeffrey becoming increasingly homo-erotic. This episode does everything so, so right!
6) I could have capped this scene forever, Tony looks so gorgeous in it. Has that famous line, “My father was too drunk to hurt anyone.” I wonder how that’s going to stand up next to Tuesday’s episode, because I could never tell if he was being truthful or if it was part of his undercover persona.
7) My cap quality was shit from here on out, sorry. Tony looks sexy in a car.
8) He looks great, and just … if I actually talked properly about this scene, I’d go way over the limit for LJ posts, and you’d all die of boredom. But there’s just so much going on. Jeffrey giving Tony the gun is kind of suicidal, but weirdly honourable? I’m not entirely sure of his motives, but it’s all very, very cool.
9) He looks devastated. I think I need to go read some post-episode fic, like, right now. This is kind of foreshadowing for how fucked up he gets over Jeanne, too, I think.
Black Water (2x11)
1) LOL LOL LOL. He’s actually telling Kate they only have two kids, but it does look fairly offensive. Adorable, too. Fingers! Lips! I even find his forehead lines really attractive, WTF?!
2) Blurry, but his eyes are amazing when they’re shut. They make me want to write really crappy lines of fanfic along the lines of his thick, long eyelashes forming dark half moons on his flawless skin as he slept. Also, this is the bit where Gibbs kind of cuts in over the money issue and says Tony was cut off from the family money when he was twelve - which Tony does seem to confirm. I wonder how true this will turn out to be next Tuesday. Interesting that Gibbs jumps in, too, although that could be revealed to be nothing too.
3) Is this the first time he’s been in the cute red jumpsuit? I love it! He totally suits that colour. Grin!
4) Nose scrunch. His hips are very nice in this scene, too, for reference.
5) Tony’s long speech about having money not making things easier, then kind of deflecting … I love this scene. Again, I’m really excited about Tuesday, eek!
6) I love any shots that are through binoculars or rifle scopes, and this scene is just awesome. The witch-mom from the Buffy episode, um, Witch brings up some lawyer chat, which makes Gibbs and Tony share a very cool typical look, followed by Tony being awesome, firing on the shooter, and getting the license plate. Because he’s AWESOME.
Doppelganger (2x12)
1) I will never get tired of close-ups of his face. Never ever.
2) Looking very pretty, with great hair, surrounded by lights. I also love how, quite often in this season, Gibbs will be chatting to someone, suspect or whatever, and if they’re in public Tony kind of stands just behind him and looks around like a big guard dog. It’s really hot.
3) I really love his long fingers. So much so that I re-watched this bit a couple of times, and spotted that he’s totally wearing gloves when he finds the cigarettes, then a fraction of a second later, in this cap, he’s not.
The Meat Puzzle (2x13)
1) Multi-tasking: eating ice-cream, smirking and teasing Kate all at once!
2) Anthony DiNozzo: Italian gigolo/furniture-mover. Also, OMG, those Corgis are so cute. I’m a rescue-dog girl, but if I was going to buy a puppy, a Corgi would be in my top five. Irish Wolfhounds, Corgis, Beagles, Red Setters, and Labradollies are my favourites. /off-topic.
3) Any cap with DiNozzo smiling and Gibbs being utterly charmed and amused by him makes me so very happy.
4) As do any caps involving Tony being adorable with dogs. Admittedly, this is mostly dogs and Tony’s knee, but adorable dogs are about the only thing that can out-cute Tony. He was holding two, before, but the cap was useless.
5) Smug Tony, wearing that lovely forest green shirt I like so much on him. I sound like such a wannabe wife.
6) Very blurry Action Tony!
Witness (2x14)
1) Have I got halfway through the episodes without a single reference to Tony’s nose bump?!?! Oh, no, I haven’t, I just checked and I clocked it earlier too. Whatevs, I started doing these caps like, last year.
2) “I’m going to enjoy this.” Wow, but Tony would make, like, the hottest serial killer since Mark Harmon played Ted Bundy.
3) The love I have for Tony finding clues via his weirdly strong senses knows no bounds.
4) “You may not admire his methods, but you gotta love the results.” Nosey Tony is so very competent! I love that theme they concentrated on a lot back then - not so much now, although it pops up now and again. Looks like it will on Tuesday, too. I’m so excited, guys. (Also, Kate’s face at his revelation of the yeast infection is hilarious!)
5) Anytime Tony is nice and supportive to McGee makes me feel warm all over - it’s just so sweet, especially compared to how mean he is to him the rest of the time. Like, seriously, I think I would be a nervous wreck if I worked with Tony. I’d forgive him, and put up with it, because he’s hot and mostly funny, but OMG he’d drive me insane.
6) Adorable!Action!Tony - but this time in the cutest food fight ever, followed by both he and Kate being sweet to McGee. It’s this kind of cuteness that has made me take so long over this picspam, because it’s all so nice and they’re such a lovely team, and in nine episodes’ time it’s all going to go to hell, and they’ll never really recover.
Caught On Tape (2x15)
1) LOL! Cute face, long fingers, sex pest! “Some kind of root vegetable?!” Off-topic again (it’s late, there is wine), but I had a friend - well, annoying house-mate - who once stupidly told me and the rest of our house that he practiced anal by sticking a cucumber up his butt. It still makes me laugh, and once when I was out clubbing, and drunk, and feeling very evil, clearly, I told every single person I saw that he’d done that. Cucumbers used to be my favourite snack, before that, so it was kind of a just revenge.
2) I don’t like this shirt. Cute conversation with the three of them, but even the tiny glimpse of chest hair can’t distract me from the ugliness of that shirt. Oh wait, OMG, McGee just giggled, adorably. Boyfriends! “You guys are four years old, honestly.”
3) Ooh, more Tony and McGee goodness. Okay, to be fair to both of them - Tony is actually being quite nice here, and I think he’s got a point when he says he never called McGee an idiot. I don’t think he’s ever called McGee dumb, ever - he knows how smart he is, he just calls him a nerd. But at the same time, he hazes McGee pretty much 24/7 - and McGee really isn’t the kind of guy who has been used to that kind of thing, I don’t think, so it’s understandable that he reacts that way. And look, character continuation - he gets all cocky and pushes his jacket on Tony's shoulder. I think this is a weirdly adorable scene, okay - they just don’t quite get one another here, which they do far more now. Blah blah blah. Moving on. Oh, wait, Tony looks lovely from this angle, in that NCIS cap. Moving on now.
4) Sad eyes - not a lot of things stop Tony from eating.
5) Gorgeous in profile, hilarious in failing to notice Gibbs’ creepy sneak-up tactics without the aid of Ben Gay. (Is that like Deep Heat over here, hot muscle-strain relief spray?)
6) Hee! Okay, but also, in this episode, Gibbs totally explodes a guy in his caravan, which is so wrong. It’s very snipery, but pretty fucking immoral, I think. Which, you know, is very Gibbs, even though he probably thinks he’s being Mother Theresa-esque in his rightness. (ILU Gibbs, really, but you’re such a dick.)
Pop Life (2x16)
1) I love you, Tony, but in this shirt, you cannot pull off a smug look. This shirt is the opposite of smug, it is horrific. It reminds me of my school nemesis, who used to wear this jacket that was like, a denim body, with black cardigan arms. It was hideous. Hahaha. But I don’t like Tony reminding me of my mortal enemy.
2) Okay, still cute from the neck up. Also, I adore any moment that Gibbs threatens Tony’s job. “Done or fired are the choices.” LOL.
3) From this, I’m going to hazard a guess that Tony is an ass-man. Spectacles, for all you Logan Cale fans! Kate does some hilarious dancing in this scene, BTW, while Gibbs looks half-amused and half incensed by Tony’s obvious glee. Oh, hi, Mya. NCIS is so cute when it tries to be cool.
4) Awful cap but fuck, Tony is hot in this scene, with his gun and his voice - and then hilarious with his, “Gosh, those guys were big. Big big big big.”
5) I love this hoodie, and it’s over a tee shirt this time - double love! Oh, I forgot this episode had the Mormon crack!
6) Such a bad cap, but OMG he’s adorable when he’s just been violently woken up by Gibbs’ driving. Cute!
An Eye For An Eye (2x17)
One of the best episodes of the season, and not just because Tony wears a tight black tee for most of it - it’s dark, and well-written, and horrific.
1) But partly because we get this amazing close-up of Tony’s eyes. I kind of want to lick his eyebrows, here.
2) I love this show so much. Pretty face, those bad-fanfic-inducing closed eyes, and “Work smarter, not harder, Katie.” He is uber-competent here.
3) Jeez, but he’s quick out of that car, switching from cute, stakeout banter mode to serious business in 0.02 of a second. I will never stop finding that hot. Kate and Tony are so adorable here.
4) Tony’s voice, when he sees the girl, is beyond sexy. This is the S2 Tony is competent episode, too, and I love it! I also like this sweater and tee combo.
5) But at the same time, he still does goof off when he thinks he can get away with it! Arms, okay, they’re gorgeous. I have a real thing for his wrists, in particular, but the whole arm is lovely. I wish he bared them a little more often.
6) Sleepy, relaxed, just a touch sweaty.
7) Neck! Face!
8) This episode is so very cappable. His face is amazing, as is his take-charge manner with Kate. I think she was unprofessional to scold him like that, but it’s partly his fault because he doesn’t act particularly senior to her much of the time, so his huffiness is slightly over-reacting. Fun dynamic, though, and another example of him being super smart.
9) His face when he realises their paedophile’s going to be let go. Gutting - his eyes are so expressive. What an awesome episode.
Bikini Wax (2x18)
1) Whoever decided that the majority of episodes this season should start with a close-up of Tony has my eternal gratitude. Look at his eyelashes! I also love his cute greeting to Abby: “What’s new, pussycat?”
2) LOL! Cute face, nice suit, tie and shirt combo, and a Gibbs-shops-at-Sears joke. Great start.
3) Looking very much like a Federal Agent here.
4) Oh hi, Angela from Odyssey 5, I was gutted that show got cancelled - you’re pretty bendy! I love Tony’s, “I’ll reboot,” and also, when I freeze-framed his report on his PDA, he has weirdly-but-cutely substituted Angela’s “sex” for “lovemaking”. What a sap.
5) He has a pretty face. I don’t like the sunglasses that he is not wearing in this cap.
6) They’re slightly better in this shot, but I think that’s mostly due to the Man-in-Black hotness. (I tried to start limiting my caps a bit here, because I still have that potent final disk to go - but Tony is hot in the interrogation scene, after this, and then, on Spring Break, he reveals he has the most insane laugh I have heard on TV since James May.)
Conspiracy Theory (2x19)
1) He’s so adorable, as is Abby stroking the back of his head. If I was a twenty year old junior at Georgetown, I hope I’d be smart enough to tap that. I’m still trying to work out how young I can get away with saying I am. Also, I really like his pale yellow shirt.
2) Looking weirdly turned on by the crazy girl’s come-on. Also, hi, Dean McDermott, you were awesome on Due South! (Not in cap, obv.)
3) Eyes, eyelashes, nose, nose bump. I’m skimping on caps again, so no photoshopped pic of Tony in leather - and no cap of him in his lovely red sweater, either. Sorry. Rule of three.
Red Cell (2x20)
1) Torturing McGee by way of a dinosaur impression! It’s not as good as Hugh Dennis’ - seriously, look it up on You Tube - but it’s still funny!
2) Nice suit!
3) Really nice suit, and great hair.
4) I love how terrified he looks of Gibbs here, and how Gibbs totally zones in on him - but he is wearing my least favourite shirt ever.
5) This was supposed to be a cap of Gibbs slamming Tony's arm down, but I'm in the final stages of doing this and the cap has gone missing and is on my other computer, so instead, have a promo shot that will take place at the end of the episode, with Tony's super-hot interviewing!
6) He and Kate sharing an umbrella is almost unbearably cute.
7) Hee! I forgot about this bit! “You can either lie on the floor, or I can drop you on the floor,” Gibbs says, while doing the latter! And then swinging his leg over Tony! Eee!
8) Resulting in this face! LOL! “You missed your calling, Boss. Coulda been a chiropractor.” And then, he finally calls Tony his Senior Field Agent, while yelling at him, and Tony looks delighted.
9) “The DiNozzo Method: not pretty, but it’s effective.” I LOVE THIS EPISODE! Tony is so competent and smart, and all complimentary about McGee, and letting McGee make the arrest, and insulting Kate, and wearing that hot, stripy shirt in interrogation, and switching to the serious, low, sexy voice when he gets mad about nearly having shot at an innocent kid. “You know what’s crazy? Me almost putting a bullet in a kid’s head because he’s playing paintball.” SO. FUCKING. HOT.
Hometown Hero (2x21)
1) Those long fingers … I love that this is like, one of the only times Tony actually seems to get angry on the show, and it’s over his car. What a boy.
2) “Autopsy Gremlin!” And Tony’s doing his Gibbs’ impression, although I’d argue he’s far too talkative to ever truly imitate Gibbs properly.
3) I feel sorry for this episode, because I often ignore it in favour of the last two episodes which are on the same disk, and forget that it highlights Tony’s big eyes so beautifully. My bad.
SWAK (2x22)
1) Being a Tony h/c fan, this episode is my crack, but I’m going to start on a negative note. I dislike the colour of that suit on him. I do, however, enjoy his tongue.
2) He has a lovely back, and I don’t give it enough attention when it’s clothed. He’s so solid.
3) Such a cute cap of the three of them, and of Tony’s lovely upper arm. The famous honey dust exchange!
4) From joking to serious in a second, as usual. So hot.
5) Okay, so this is where the good h/c starts, but the caps are going to crappy because of the blue lighting, so sorry in advance for that.
6) Tony’s a Buckeye! Brad Pitt and Nurse Emma are like, the cutest characters ever, by the way, and in my personal fanon they totally got together and occasionally had hot threesomes with Tony, and he went to their wedding. They are my favourite characters that pop up in fic.
7) He looks so sick - and apparently being sick gives Tony 90s British boy band hair.
8) This is such h/c porn - look at his straining neck muscles!
9) “You will not die.” This episode - jeez. It pretty much hits every single button I have. Head slap of love.
Twilight (2x23)
1) Looking like crap with raccoon eyes. I still would, though.
2) “You told him I had breast implants?” Oh, Tony. Quit digging. Your cap looks cute, BTW.
3) Where are the Tony as exotic snake dancer AUs, huh?
4) “Both of you, run.” I don’t think Tony could be more heroic than he is here. He can be such a fucking asshole, sometimes, but when it comes down to it, he really would do anything for his team. “This is not a debate.” He’s so hot.
5) I was watching this in Britain, before I’d learned about torrents, so I’d been spoiled for what actually happens in this episode, but if I hadn’t, this would have made me burst into tears. His hair looks good, though.
6) Because this episode is like, unbelievably sad, let’s lighten it up with some cute h/c (the thermometer) with some crazy (the Jack Nicholson eyes and hair).
7) Abby and Tony are so cute. I love the way she starts gossiping to him, and in my head they totally meet up over drinks and talk about everyone else like, at least once a month. So adorable. They both have very pleasing profiles.
8) “Tony, eat something.” Gibbs is so adorable in this episode, and he’s not even trying to hide the fact he’s worried. Also, whoever was in charge of wardrobe this episode did an ace job of picking clothes that were just a bit too big for Tony. They did a great job with the continuation, they made him look ill enough that I’d at least make sure he was warm and comfy before I jumped his bones.
9) His face, and eyes, when he hears that Ari’s in town. I love how sleepy his squinty eye gets when he’s tired.
10) My cap quality is getting worse, sorry, but this was supposed to show how lovely his eyelashes look. I love how Gibbs does not jump down his throat at the mention of Paula, because he knows immediately what Tony’s already thinking. And aww, Tony and Paula hook up when she’s in town. Third favourite pairing. And nose bump.
11) He and Gibbs looks so relieved she’s okay! “You’re not gonna be going to Pilates class tomorrow.”
12) That’s such a horrific shot, but it’s the last one of Tony all season. I know MW flinches too early for the blood spatter, which he adorably copped to in a French interview, but it’s got to be one of the most shocking and brave bits of TV of the decade. Everything changes from here on out.
Roll on S3!
