Michael Weatherly and Cote de Pablo, cute little kiss on the cheek. (Behind the scenes of the 200th episode.)

WATCH!: Let’s say there’s a real life- or-death situation at NCIS. Who’s the best equipped to handle it?

MICHAEL: In a straight-up you’re- on-a-boat-and-it’s-sinking, you want Mark Harmon. Sean Murray will surprise you with his resourcefulness; I think I’m of average resourcefulness. Surprisingly, I think the one person you might not want anywhere near a crisis situation is Cote de Pablo.

WATCH!: Do tell.

MICHAEL:I think she might misunderstand the crisis and start arguing a point. We once had a fake dead guy who looked like he had an erection in his pants. Cote goes, “He is poking a cave.” We’re all like, “What’s poking a cave?” I went, “Pitching a tent?” And she was like, “Yes—that’s it!”

WATCH!: That’s amazing.

MICHAEL: So in a pinch, that would be the way it breaks down. Although you never know; maybe Harmon panics. But we’ve all understood that that’s your guy. In TV and in real life. That’s the guy you want next to you in the foxhole. Later on set, we find guest star Robert Wagner, who plays DiNozzo’s father, standing next to a life-size cutout of Weatherly, striking the same pose.

LMAO!!! I love these two.
