- Leroy Jethro Gibbs: I know I let you down, Abs. I told you not to worry. I said that I would always keep you safe.
- [Abby confronts King in a cafe]
- SGM Robert King: I got a flight to catch. Looks like our rematch will have to wait.
- Abby Sciuto: Oh, we're not finished here.
- SGM Robert King: It's a stalemate. You haven't got a move to make.
- Abby Sciuto: I made my move before I sat down. Slipped some cyanide into your coffee before the waitress gave it to you. Enough to kill you... I mean, not immediately, but within the hour.
- SGM Robert King: [smirks] A for effort, sunshine. Now, you're not capable of killing anyone.
- Abby Sciuto: Kate... Jenny... Dorneget... Ziva... Reeves. I am tired of my hero friends dying while villains like you get to live. Everyone has their breaking point and this was mine.
- [King's breathing becomes shallow, and he starts coughing]
- Abby Sciuto: Airway constriction. It's one of the first symptoms. Shortness of breath, dizziness, chest pains... you'll be in full cardiac arrest in, like, ten minutes. I mean, unless you happen to have some hydroxocobalamin on you...
- [produces a small red pill in a plastic bag]
- Abby Sciuto: Like this. Confess, and you get to live.
- SGM Robert King: You're insane.
- Abby Sciuto: [smiles coldly] Sometimes you have to get your hands dirty to get the job done.
- SGM Robert King: [coughing] Fine! I hired Marshall to take you out, but just you! Your friend wasn't part of the plan! Satisfied?
- Abby Sciuto: [gets up from the table] You may not deserve to live... but I would *never* stoop to your level.
- [She tosses him the bag, and he grabs for the pill]
- Timothy McGee: [to Abby] That was Tony checking in. You know, he didn't even call me a McNickname, so I know he's really worried about you.
- Timothy McGee: I'm not going anywhere until I know Abby's gonna be okay.
- Jimmy Palmer: It could be days, maybe weeks even.
- Timothy McGee: Then I'll wait.
