That scene was sheer brilliance - what a way to work around the fact that they don't get together for years! And it's so nice to see Tony starting to trust Gibbs a little more. I'm glad Gibbs can see the little glimmers of development, too. Loved that Gibbs *admitted* to Tony that he was too sore to sit down - Tony isn't the only one letting down his usual barriers here. And Tony's thoughts about the headslaps (and speculation about spankings)!!! Dare I hope that that's foreshadowing something coming up?
