Special Agent Jethro Gibbs : Where did it go?
Dr. Donald 'Ducky' Mallard : Well, it appears to have been removed trans-nasally, in a manner similar to that used by the ancient Egyptians prior to mummification.

Dr. Donald 'Ducky' Mallard : Most likely, using a took similar to this.

[off their looks]
Jimmy Palmer : ... go clean some pipettes.
Special Agent Jethro Gibbs : Postmortem?
Dr. Donald 'Ducky' Mallard : Well, judging by the intracranial hemorrhaging, I believe the entire cerebrum was removed while he was still alive. Unconscious, of course, but alive... until, of course, he wasn't.
