Does anyone know if there are episodes where Tony is interrogating a suspect in the interview room? I'm working on a fic, and I wanted to see how he usually handles that type of interview. Thanks in advance for any help. :-)

The episode title is 'Iced.'
The scene went something like this:
{Tony DiNozzo is playing Tetris on his celullar phone}
Ceasar: So, like, you don't got no.... questions for me?
Tony: That's a double negative.
Ceasar: Huh?
Tony: Don't... got no... is a double negative. It's a non-standard use of two negative words in the same sentence... cancel each other out and create a positive. Actually, in Shakespeare's day the double negative was used as an emphatic, but now it's just considered a mistake. Don't know if that's what you intended. I'm pretty sure it's not. We'll just go with the whole colloquial idiomatic thing....
{refers to his Tetris game} this is hard!
{back to Ceasar} I'm pretty sure you meant 'Do I have any questions?' and the answer to that question is 'I have no questions.' I do have some observations though.... Ceasar... that's an interesting name, obviously derived from Caesar. That was a powerful dude. My name is Anthony; my friends call me Tony, which backwards is Y Not. Anyway...
At this point, Tony manages to make Ceasar lose his temper and reveal a bit more than he intended to.
