Great episode. I want to know about the person Ziva is writing the email to. I couldn't make it all out but she is writing to an "R" and says she hopes his assignment is going well. R....? Rivkin (doubt it)? I wish it stood for Roy...

I loved the last scene in Abby's lab and the cute sound Gibbs made when he gave her a hug.
I'm getting tired of the jealously thing with Ziva. Just put them together or stop talking about it (at least stop talking about it every freaking episode)!

I almost forgot, that bit where Abby had a charley horse under her desk and Gibbs pulled her out by her legs... I was rolling on the floor laughing!

I loved this episode! Good case stuff, Abby was back to her normal giddy self, and back to UST banter between Tony and Ziva! :] And the last scene between them was so sweet. I love that he shows that he still does and will always generally care for her. "Handle with care." :] "Contents, priceless." :D! And next week's eppy looks promising too! This season is off to a good start.

The bit about Ziva's e-mail and Tony's jealousy felt so old and repetitive to me. I was literally thinking, "OK, just stick in a fork in Tiva. They're done."

THEN came that bit at the end with Tony saying, "Contents priceless," and I suddenly morphed into a squealing fangirl thinking, "I love you, Tiva! Tiva forever!"

*sigh* Damn this show for toying with my emotions!

P.S. The bit with McGee climbing into the jacuzzi was fun. I think they're almost exclusively calling him Tim now, which makes me happy.

I thought the plot was very good, but the writing overall felt quite clunky. However, I thought the actors were all on point and there were a lot of nonverbal moments and facial expressions that I loved. There seemed to be a larger-than-normal dose of Tony/Ziva in this episode, which I didn't love...I like my NCIS more ensemble-focused and melodrama-free.
