Mark Harmon: Leroy Jethro Gibbs

Quotes 

• Timothy McGee : [Gibbs hands McGee his watch]  Boss, I think something borrowed is more for the bride.

  Leroy Jethro Gibbs : No, it's not borrowed. That's yours.

  [Long pause] 

  Leroy Jethro Gibbs : My mom gave it to my dad when they got married. It was right before he shipped out. My dad gave it to me on my wedding day. I only wear it on special occasions.

  Timothy McGee : You wore it tonight.

  Leroy Jethro Gibbs : Well, yeah. I had a feeling.

  Timothy McGee : Boss, you sure there's not someone else you'd rather give it to?

  Leroy Jethro Gibbs : Who better than you, Tim?

  [McGee looks at the back of the watch, which has been newly inscribed: "Breathe, Tim"] 

  Timothy McGee : Thank you, boss.

• Jimmy Palmer : As I was saying, helicopters and I haven't always exactly gotten along. You know, but I've really grown to appreciate their efficiency. We just traveled around three hundred miles in, uh, around ninety minutes.

  Leroy Jethro Gibbs : Felt a lot longer to me.

• Commander Bitterman : So you're telling me Petty Officer Jones was murdered?

  Leroy Jethro Gibbs : You can't know that without a body. Somebody took it for a reason. Why?

  Commander Bitterman : You and your team are free to turn this place inside out, but this ship - my ship - is set to rendezvous with the carrier group in two days. I can't alter course.

  Leroy Jethro Gibbs : Commander, your ship's an active crime scene. The only place it's going is back to Norfolk.
