• Mann, who has had a small leak in her bathroom, comes home from a short trip to discover Gibbs seemingly accelerating the work to be finished and, she assumes, leave her. Mann launches into a diatribe about how Gibbs should want her and how stupid he is for not wanting her. She doesn't let him speak. When he stays silent, she demands he speak. He starts talking about the plumbing and how it turned out to be a bigger job than he thought. He opens the door to her bathroom to reveal utter chaos. He was trying to finish the plastering on the small leak so that he could tackle the really big leak. When she asks how long the work could take, he says "a while". This implies that Gibbs will try to continue his relationship with Mann.
