"She was a hero, our Kate was," Ducky murmurs. "She could have hesitated for one moment before putting her life on the line for Jethro, but she didn't. She very well might have saved his life. And that next bullet? That next bullet should not have been hers. She didn't deserve to die. She didn't deserve any of this Ari business."

"You should go home and get away from all of this," Ducky continues, jabbing the air with another of his tools. "You should take some time to grieve. I know how close you too were."

Ducky glances at him, concern in his eyes. "Don't we all."
Swiping tears from his cheeks, Tony waves Ducky on. "So, our Kate was a hero," he manages.
"Oh, that she was..."
