   Summary

   “Oh, God. I haven’t been with anyone since that last… disaster.”

   Years after breaking up with Tony, Ziva goes on a date with someone new—but something about it just doesn’t feel right.

   AKA the disaster date she talks about with Dr. Lang in 1x01 (and all the reasons why that went wrong).
