TRIVIA (2)
ADD TRIVIA-
TRIVIA: In a cast interview, it was revealed that the method used to kill Agent Lee was the original method to be used to kill Former Director Jenny Shepard at the end of season 5.
-
TRIVIA: Supposedly Michelle's daughter has been held as a hostage for eight months, but the marks she made with ketchup counting the days only accounts for a little over two months (65 slashes). Either she had been moved before, had another place she was making her slash marks, or she didn't begin counting immediately.

ALLUSIONS (6)
ADD ALLUSIONS-
Tony: North by Northwest...I'm talking about espionage, Judy, Judy, Judy... Cary Grant, Leo G. Carroll...
Leo G. Carroll starred with David McCallum in the 1960s TV spy series The Man From U.N.C.L.E.
-
The slight nod that Agent Lee gives to Gibbs just before he shoots her and Bankston is very much like the nod that Harry Lime (Orson Welles) gives Holly Martins (Joseph Cotton) in the classic 1949 film The Third Man. In that film, Martins comes to post-war Vienna to find his friend Harry Lime, only to be told that Lime is dead. He later finds that Lime is alive and involved in a scheme to sell bogus black-market penicillin. Martins gets coerced into cooperating with the military police in trying to capture Lime, and in the climax, finds the wounded Lime trapped in the Vienna sewers. Lime gives Martins a nod indicating that he should shoot him before the police close in, and Martins grants his old friend this one last favor.
-
Title: Dagger
Combined with the title of the previous episode "Cloak" it forms the adjective "cloak-and-dagger", used to describe an exciting story involving secrecy and mystery, often about spies.
-
Tony: (seeing Amanda lying on a pressure plate) You ever seen Raiders of the Lost Ark?
The scene of the movie Tony is referring to features Indiana Jones attempting to beat a trap by substituting a bag of sand he believes weighs the same amount as a golden mask which rests on a pressure plate. Unfortunately, he guesses wrong, and has to escape from the temple with all of its defenses activated.
-
Abby: Yesterday's news, Gibbs, just got to hop back in the DeLorean and get back to today's problem.
Abby is making a reference to the 1985 movie Back To The Future, which starred Michael J. Fox as a teenager who used a time machine built into a DeLorean automobile and became friends with his parents as high school students.
-
Tony: North By Northwest? I'm talking about espionage, Judy, Judy, Judy...
Tony is doing an impression of Cary Grant, the star of the Alfred Hitchcock thriller North By Northwest. It's best known for the chase scene across Mt Rushmore. Cary Grant never actually said, "Judy, Judy, Judy" in a movie, but the misquote is still widely known in connection with the actor.
