According to the NCIS Papa Protagonist Leroy Jethro Gibbs, there are a set of Rules that he lives by, and also teaches to the people with whom he works. Failure by one of his team to follow any of the said Rules is typically followed by a slap to the back of the head.
The Rules are:
1. Never let suspects stay
together
1. Never screw (over) your
partner
been taken twice, indicating he knew there are two number one rules.
2. Always wear gloves at a
crime scene
3. Don’t believe what
you’re told. Double check
3. Never be unreachable
4. If you have a secret,
the best thing is to keep it to yourself
The second-best thing is to tell one other
person if you must
There is no third best
5. You don’t waste good
6. Never say you’re sorry;
it’s a sign of weakness
- This rule has been mentioned throughout the series
- The rule is also a direct reference to John Wayne's catch phrase
in John Ford's 1949 western, She Wore A Yellow Ribbon. Wayne said:
"Never apologize, mister, it's a sign of weakness."
7. Always be specific when
you lie
8. Never take anything for
granted
9. Never go anywhere
without a knife
10. Never get personally
involved in a case
11. When the job is done,
walk away
12. Never date a coworker
13. Never, ever involve
lawyers
14. Bend the line; don’t
break it
15. Always work as a team
16. If someone thinks they
have the upper hand, break it
18. It’s better to ask
forgiveness than ask permission
- My Number One Rule, in case you're interested, is, "Never pass
up the chance to pee."
20. Always look under
22. Never, ever interrupt
Gibbs in interrogation
23. Never mess with a
Marine’s coffee if you want to live
27. There are two ways to
follow someone:
* 1st way – they never notice
you;
* 2nd way – they only notice
you
35. Always watch the
watchers
36. If it feels like
you’re being played, you probably are
38. Your case, your lead
39. There is no such thing
as coincidence
39a. There is no such thing as a small world

someone’s out to get you, they are
42. Don’t ever accept an
apology from someone that just sucker-punched you
44. First things first.
Hide the women and children
45. Clean up the mess that you make
51. Sometimes, you’re
wrong

exiting the elevator
69. Never trust a woman
who doesn’t trust her man
