Beginning of the day & working out.....

"What are you doing in there? Hurry up. Geez, it's like he's shaving his legs or something." Kensi shouted very frustrated "Is there a, uh, is there a problem?" Eric said just getting off the bike "Yeah, the problem is my partner takes longer than the average Kardashian to get ready." Kensi answered Eric "Well, you, uh, you need a workout partner?" He suggested (laughs) "What? Really? You want to You, um, you want to be a part of this?" Kensi asked "Yeah, I want to be a part of this. Daddy wants to be a part of this. Let's do this." Eric said with a little smile (grunting) (whoops) "You okay?" Kensi asks "Yeah. Not exactly what I had in mind, but Oh. Do you, uh, think I should I be wearing some kind of protective headgear?" Eric suggested while being beaten by Kensi

"Want me to kick you in the head?" Kensi asked "Not particularly." Eric replied "Okay." Kensi answered "Oh, Lord. Christmas came early." Sam said coming round the corner "Samuel. Sam-dawg. Hey. You know, we're just finishing up. So you guys, uh, you can" Eric said trying to get away from them stumbling over at the same time (chuckles) "Oh, no, no, no. I want to play Whack-a-Beale." Same asked "Yeah. Kensi?" Eric said "You wanted to train with us. This is training with us." Kensi said with a huge grin on his face "I do-I do want to train with you, but, you know, I just reali that, um, Granger wants me up in Ops." Eric said as Kensi was beating him up "Oh, no, come here. Oh. Come on. You can do it." Kensi said as Eric was walking backwards into the changing room "Y Okay. Eric. Come on, come on, ten minutes. Hey, come on. (laughs) That was mean." Sam said picking up some boxing pads "Oh, no. That was fun." Kensi mentioned

"Where's Deeks?" Sam asked "Deeks has been in the locker room for about half an hour now." Kensi replied "I'm sorry I asked." Sam answered "Where's Callen?" Kensi asked him "He had something to do with Joelle, apparently." Sam said rolling his eyes "Ooh. Do I sense trouble in paradise?" Kensi asked hitting the boxing pads "I don't know. Just got a bad feeling it's gonna happen." Sam replied "Why do you say that? You don't like her?" Kensi asked "Oh, no, I like her. I actually set them up. Now I'm wondering if it was a mistake." Sam said wondering "Aw. You starting to miss him? (laughs) Oh, don't tell me he's putting hos before bros." she said "How many relationships have you had that worked out while doing this?" Sam asked kinda changing the subject (grunts) "Well, there was, uh Oh, no, he wasn't Um Yeah." Kensi said thinking about it all "Exactly. I like Joelle, so does Callen. I don't think she can handle it. This job is a cruel mistress." Sam said while Kensi was boxing with him, then their heads turned fast then you could say 'Hey'......

"Fortunately, I know how to handle my cruel mistress." Deeks said coming out from the changing room wearing this ridiculous yellow jumpsuit "What the hell are you wearing?" Sam asked "What do you mean, what the hell am I wearing? I'm wearing a track suit." Deeks said walking behind Kensi "That is a jumpsuit." Kensi butted in "That's a unitard." Sam said "Some kind of tard." Kensi mumbled "You don't recognize this?" Deeks asks looking at them both "Yeah, Uma Thurman wore the same thing in Kill Bill." Sam mentioned "Oh, my gosh, don't tell me you're cross-dressing." Kensi said giggling "The one that Uma Thurman wore was different, but it was also an homage to the original, which was worn by the greatest martial artist the world has ever known. Seriously, nothing? Bruce Lee! The Dragon himself. This is classic jeet kune do fight gear." Deeks explains

"Since when do you do jeet kune do?" Asks Kens "Well, Kensilina, I'll have you know that, a lot like Batman, my unique coat skills come from a variety of fighting styles, which is jeet kune do, aikido, tae Kwon do." Deeks continued "Curly, Larry, Moe." Sam said about to laugh "Oh, you know, I see what's happening here-- you're mocking me, which is interesting, because when you mock me, you mock my brother Bruce Lee, which seems a little bit racist and I'd actually expect more coming from you." Deeks said "Keep it up, you're gonna get a lot more from me." Sam said "Oh, yeah?" Deeks replied "Yeah," Sam said once again "really. You familiar with the, uh, game of death?" Deeks asks Sam "Oh, yeah. I play it to win." Sam said "Well, don't make me unleash the dragon." Deeks replied "Please, somebody needs to train his dragon." Kensi said "Bring it on." Deeks says as they both get into their places.

Everyone gets an alert from Beal....

"Hey, what's the emergency?" Kensi asked as her, Deeks and Sam walked around the corner "Yeah, I got an alert from Beale." Deeks said to Hetty and Nell as they were standing there "Maybe it's revenge for the beating Kensi gave him." Sam answered "You beat up Beale?" Nell asked "No. No." Kensi replied looking at Deeks "Little bit." Deeks answered "What's happening, Beale?" Sam asked him as Eric came from down stairs "Yeah, we got a Pardon me, your grace. My lord." Eric said as Sam rolled his eyes at him "We got company." Granger butted in as everyone turned their heads looking at the tunnel "Ah, wow. So this is the secret lair of the West Coast Avengers. I always wondered. I'm Special Agent Tony" DiNozzo explained to the team "DiNozzo, yes." Hetty butted in "You must be Hetty." He asked her "And you must be in trouble." Hetty replied

"Well, y-yeah. A little bit. Assistant Director Granger." Dinozzo said looking at him" "DiNozzo. Agent Hanna and Blye." Granger said introducing the team "Hi." Kensi replied standing next to Deeks "LAPD Detective Deeks." Granger continued "Sup?" Deeks said to DiNozzo "It's nice to see you, Uma." He said "Bruce Lee, actually. Bruce Lee wore it first." Deeks answered him "And this is technical operator Eric Beale and Intel analyst Nell Jones." Granger said "I love the cape." DiNozzo said as Eric touched it "Clearly, I've missed something." Callen said walking in "Agent Callen, Agent DiNozzo from Washington. He was just about to tell us to what we owe the pleasure of his visit." Granger said.

A few minutes later up in ops DiNozzo filled the team in and then began finding the loose (Rat)....

(computer chirps) "Where did he go?" Kensi said wondering "Maybe he dumped the car." Deeks suggested "Hey, Eric, can you remotely switch off the vehicle?" Kensi asked "No. GPS tracking is the best I could do." Eric replied "Fail. Epic fail." Deeks said straight after "Wow. Whatever happened to the signal?" Kensi said looking at Deeks and Eric "Well, Kensi, he probably went into an underground garage." "Do you have an address for us, Mr. Beale?" Deeks asked "Best guess is on your phone, Mr. Deeks. I'll let you know if he moves." Eric replied to the both of them

"Find him?" DiNozzo said as he walked in the bullpen "Yes, we did." Kensi replied as Deeks and herself turned around "All right, I'm coming with you." "No. No, that's not a good idea." Deeks said "I think it's a great idea. It's a great suit, by the way." Kensi said picking up her keys "This old thing? Thank you." DiNozzo said touching his suit "I do wish more men would dress like adults." Kensi said as (Deeks laughs) "You know, in L.A. formal attire tends to be black T-shirts and flip-flops." Kensi explained as they were walking (Tony laughs) "Tom Ford says, "Dressing well is a form of good manners" DiNozzo replied to her "I love Tom Ford." Kensi puts out there "He knows how to a dress woman." DiNozzo replied "Yeah, but does he know how to undress a woman? Shotgun." Deeks said as they all stopped and Deeks walked straight through them both "You'd look good in Tom Ford." DiNozzo suggested "Yeah, I wish." She replied "Say it's for an undercover op." DiNozzo suggested "Have you met Hetty?" Kensi asked "Yeah. Kind of reminds me of a badger." DiNozzo replied as they walked out

Deeks, Kensi & DiNozzo are tracking down Rio....

"Well, all right. There's a red Mustang." DiNozzo said sitting in the back seat as the pulled up in the parking lot "Rio's nowhere in sight. Must be up on the street." Deeks replied "All right, let's do this. You go topside, see if you can spot him. DiNozzo and I will stay back here in case he comes back." Kensi explained "Yeah, that seems like a terrible plan, because I'm not the person that lost him." Deeks suggested "Technically, I didn't lose him either." DiNozzo said "Okay, he's not my prisoner-- he's yours." Deck said making it very clear "Okay, don't get your wig in a mess. I'll go find him." DiNozzo said getting out of the car "I'll come with you." Kensi replied

"No, I'll go. I'll go." Deeks said "Whoa, whoa. Come here. What is wrong with you?" Kensi asked grabbing his arm "What's wrong with me? What's wrong with you?" Deeks asked her "Why are you being weird? " she asked "I'm not being weird. You're being weird. I'm the one that's acting normal." He replied "Oh? And what does that look like?" Kensi asked "It looks like" Deeks said before DiNozzo put his head through the car window and said ......"Guys, time's kind of an issue for me here, so can we get a move on? Thanks." (grunts)

As Kensi was on a stake out in her car waiting for Rio......DiNozzo and Eric decided to go on a little walk ousted to basically complain about each other but Kensi could hear everything in her ear piece......

"Girls, you are both pretty. Although one of you clearly has better fashion sense. Not to mention grooming." Kensi mentioned "Mmm. Listen. (clears throat) It's actually called, uh, surf chic." Deeks replied "I believed it's pronounced "surf chick." DiNozzo replied "Ladies, heads up and shut up. Rio just came back from what looks like a shopping spree. Federal agent. Stop. Rio, put the bags down. Put your hands behind your head." Kensi said getting out of the car and pulling her gun out "My name is Sarawut. Sarawut Saosong. I think you have me confused for somebody else." Rio explained "You wish. Don't even think about it. Get down on your knees." Kensi said firmly

(groaning) "Ooh. Bang, bang, sexy time." He replied (groans) "Shut up and cross your feet. (moaning) You okay?" Kensi asked "My chest. (moans) I'm having a heart attack. Call 911." Rio said then a car came round the corner and (gunshots) were fired "Deeks!" Kensi shouted as she was hiding behind a poll (gunshots) "Freeze! Stop the car!" Deeks says as he was shooting (tires screeching) "Where's Rio?" DiNozzo asked Kensi "I'm guessing he had the good sense to run away when the bullets started." Kensi answered "Who were those guys?" Deeks asked "I just got here. This is your town." DiNozzo replied

Looking through evidence from Rio's shopping day back at the bullpen.....

"Is it an iguana?" DiNozzo asked sitting in Sam's chair "It's an armadillo." Deeks replied leaning on his chair arm "Can you get your finger out of my origami?" Sam said coming round the corner "This is your desk." DiNozzo said looking at Deeks knowing that he had set him up "Sorry." DiNozzo said trying to get past Sam "That Rio's stuff?" Callen asked as Kensi came through with a load of shopping bags "Yes, indeed." She replied "Wow, maybe he really was here on vacation." Deeks said as Kensi showed him a No. Plate "Did you find him?" Callen asked Eric & Nell coming down from the stairs "Not yet. But we did identify the shooter that you apprehended. His name is Philipe Del La Haye of Jersey." Eric said "Mob connections?" Sam asked "Not New Jersey. Jersey Jersey, off the coast of Normandy." Need replied "Oh. Old Jersey." Sam said "Officially called the Bailiwick of Jersey." Eric answered "Bailiwick? You sure it's not a donnybrook?" Deeks thought and said.

"Might be more of a mollycoddle." DiNozzo butted in "Don't encourage him." Kensi said "Jersey's part of the Channel Islands between England and France, but it's a self-governing democracy with its own financial and legal systems." Explained Eric "That's interesting. 'Cause I never found the Jersey Boys that dangerous when they were singing and dancing." Deeks said standing up "Maybe they're working for Pippin now." DiNozzo finished "I thought you were better than that." Kensi asked "What does this guy want with Rio? " Callen said straight after "We're not sure. He works for a local trust company. But here's the interesting part. So, every year, the Bureau of International Narcotics and Law Enforcement Affairs rates the money laundering operations around the world. Jersey just so happens to be one of the places of primary concern." Nell was explaining with info on the screen "And it's one of the leading offshore banking centers." Eric finished "Rio is the mack daddy of money laundering." DiNozzo said "Mack daddy. Really?" Deeks replied "That means every criminal he's ever worked with will be willing to kill him to prevent their assets from being seized." Sam thought "We got to find this guy. If the Bailiwick of Jersey knows he's here, odds are others do as well." Callen said

"Hey, guys? Check this out." Kensi said emptying a medical kit from one of the bags "Hydrocodone. Ondansetron." Callen said "That's used for nausea and vomiting." Eric finished off "Arnica, bromelain, moisturizer. Arnica's used for bruises. Bromelain's an anti-inflammatory." Callen replied "It's a post-op kit for cosmetic surgery." Sam answered "Of course! Michael Long." DiNozzo shouted out when he had a spark to his memory "That's right." Deeks replied "Detective Lieutenant Michael Arthur Long." DiNozzo said "He was shot in the face. He was rescued by billionaire Wilton Knight and was the primary field agent for the Foundation of Law and Government. FLAG." Deeks explained as everyone looked at them both "FLAG." DiNozzo finished "What? What are you two talking about?" Sam asked "Knight Rider, starring David Hasselhoff." Nell put in their "The Hoff. Don't you dare hassle him." Deeks said "'80s TV show with a talking car." Continued Nell "A. K. A. KITT. And the Knight Industries Two Thousand was a little more than a talking car." Explained Eric "Do you ever get the feeling we're working alone here?" Callen asked Sam "Every single day." Sam replied

"Oh, no, no, no, no, no. Do not loop Nell and me in this geek squad." Kensi asked "Thank you." Nell replied "After he was shot, Michael Arthur was in need of cosmetic surgery. New face, new identity. And I think that's what Rio is doing." DiNozzo explained "Well, there's no better place to get a new face than Hollywood." Nell said "No identification on this kit, but if it was in the shopping bags, obviously he got it at the same time. Chances are his surgeon is located in the same area." Explained Callen "That narrows it down to about 1,000." Eric said "Okay, we'll start with the places that are closest to the parking garage, then extend from there. He'll probably need a place to recover for a couple of weeks, so places close enough for post-op visits." Sam suggested "Right. We'll start sorting through the hotels, try to find someone checking in today for approximately two weeks." Nell replied (chuckling): "Oh. You got to be kidding me." Kensi said holding up a T-shirt "Bam! Did I call that or what?" DiNozzo said with a big grin on his face

Busy tracking down a doctor....

"Hey. Any luck?" Deeks asked Kensi as him and DiNozzo came out the door "No. You?" Kensi asked "We saw Alec Baldwin." DiNozzo replied "Oh. No, no. That was just a mirror. Who's next?" Deeks asked "Why don't I take Bedford. And, uh, you take Roxbury. Maybe get a quote on doing something with Deeks' face." Kensi as Deeks pulled his phone out and Kensi walked passed them both "That was aggressive. Okay. Shall we?" Deeks said looking at DiNozzo "It's never gonna work, you know." DiNozzo said as they were walking "Why not?" Deeks asked "Trust me, I've been there." He said

"Oh, you mean plastic surgery? God, I knew it. 'Cause of that Ken doll chin." Deeks said "You and Blye." DiNozzo said "What, our partnership?" Asked Deeks "The other ship." DiNozzo asks "What other ship?" Deeks asked "You know what ship." DiNozzo said "I don't know what ship you're talking about." Deeks said acting dum "Your relationship." DiNozzo replied "Oh, you're shipping us? 'Cause you need to stop right now before you (sighs) embarrass yourself." Deeks said "Okay. How can you possibly do undercover work and be this bad a liar? You couldn't infiltrate community dinner theater." DiNozzo explained as they both stopped "You do a lot of undercover work, do you?" Deeks asked "A ton. I do a ton." DiNozzo replied as kept walking "As a Sears model, circa 1970?" Deeks thought "Who hurt you?" DiNozzo asked

Another day done & dusted, back at the bullpen and saying goodbye to DiNozzo......

"Well, I'm not gonna lie-- we came, we saw, we captured." Deeks mentioned as the whole team and Tony walked through the tunnel "And you practically destroyed the hotel." Granger said as he met the team back at the bullpen "No civilian casualties." Sa, put in there "You're lucky. So where's Rio?" Granger asked "Prisoner transport van." Callen replied "We're going to escort them back to the gate." Kensi said standing next to Deeks "Ah, that's nice, but not really necessary." DiNozzo said going his cuffs "We're going to escort you back to the gate." Sam said with a serious face on "They're going to escort us back to the gate." DiNozzo said looking at Granger "Good." Granger replied "Thank you for your help." DiNozzo said to them all "Our pleasure." Replied Callen "Wouldn't go that far." Sam butted in "Give me a hug. Come back to us anytime you get tired of Washington." Kensi said giving DiNozzo a hug "I just might do that. Deeks." DiNozzo said as he did a half hand shake "Oh, nice. Well played." Deeks said with a smile

(clears throat): "Mr. DiNozzo, before you go, you had a call from Gibbs." Hetty mentioned "Oh." DiNozzo said looking quite suspicious "Apparently, he's been having difficulty reaching you" Hetty asked DiNozzo (chuckles): "Yeah. Well, we 'cause we, uh, there was a gun battle, and, um What did he say?" DiNozzo asked "He said I should give you a message." Hetty replied "Ah. Okay." He replied "Come" Hetty said moving her fingers "Oh!" Kensi said "Ow. Ooh." Callen said That's from Gibbs. Now get out of my town.
