* BeCarefulWhatYouWishFor: Played with in a discussion between Gibbs and Dillinger.
-->'''Dillinger:''' ENCOM isn't the business you started in your garage anymore. We're building accounts in thirty different countries. New defense systems. We have one of the most sophisticated pieces of equipment in existence.\\
'''Gibbs:''' Oh, I know all that. Sometimes I wish I were back in that garage.\\
'''Dillinger:''' That can be arranged, Walter.
