The McGee-Tony banter? Perfect. :-) McGee really *does* need to stop sounding like he was born yesterday. ;-) "Preying mantis"!! LOL!!! I've been thinking of her as a black widow, which is another reason why she and Tony should never get together - he'd be dead within the week. :-)
Love his jealousy over Stan. That's a hard one, but, I think, not nearly as hard as finally admitting to himself that wanting to be loved isn't being needy will be. I get the feeling that may be the hardest lesson for him to learn.
The sensory deprivation is a stroke of genius, I think. Tony is such an extrovert; getting all his energy from outside himself. Shutting out the input (and the output, for that matter; the interaction) finally forces him to go where he's always avoided: inside himself. Gibbs is going to drag him to his core if he has to do it with Tony kicking and screaming the whole way... and he probably will kick and scream the whole way. :-);-)
Hope Gibbs finds a compromise for the not-a-morning-person thing. :-) As a not-a-morning-person myself, I fully sympathize. :-)
Having to "pay" for information is a nice touch, too. :-) And yeah, I can't see Tony turning that down, either.
Abby figured it out! Abby would. :-) Wonder how long it'll take for her to figure out *who* his top is. :-)
And I really hope Tony's not injured in the line of duty. Granted, ER docs have seen it all, but YIKES! :-)
So looking forward to the next parts even though I *know* there's a punishment detail or three slated in there somewhere. I can't see Tony avoiding it. :-) I wonder if it'll end up coming *because* he refuses to use his safe word.
