Special Agent Anthony DiNozzo : Killer could've been dumping the victim's body when he got rear-ended.
Jimmy Palmer : Doctor, there's some mass in his lower abdomen, here.

Jimmy Palmer : I can.

Special Agent Leroy Jethro Gibbs : What was inside him?

Jimmy Palmer : Where did he get this?
Donald Mallard : I'd be more concerned to find out what he was planning to do with it.
