Relationship Stats
How they met: Ziva walked into the squadroom to hear Tony talking about picturing Kate in Catholic schoolgirl uniform.
How long were they together: Haven't actually been a couple yet, but have known each other for three years now. It's only a matter of time. Although in season four episode one 'Shalom', we see photos of Tony leaving her house and in another episode Ziva refers to something Ducky says with something about a bear and Tony making her watch a documentary once? (What does this mean?)
Wasn't there also a time, where her dad's Mossad agent informs her that they have seen Tony visit her place...and he basically hinted at a relationship?
Season 7 Spoilers report that their relationship will turn romantic. (Can't Wait!)
In Season 7, Tony and McGee unknowingly rescue Ziva, thinking she was dead. Tony reveals some feelings ("Guess, I just couldn't live without you." and "I'd save her in a heartbeat.") and have a moment in the Men's Bathroom, where Ziva kisses Tony on the cheek.
Type of relationship: At times Brother and Sister other times it verges on them possibly becoming boyfriend and girlfriend

Relationship Time Line
Season 3
  • This humour between Ziva and Tony has been generally kept throughout every episode. Some argue that they have a brother/sister relationship and others claim that it is a sexual relationship or that it could be.
  • Ziva and Tony have been in some situations, most famously, "Under Covers" where there were some steamy bedroom scenes between Ziva and Tony as they were posing as husband and wife. Neither of them, particularly Tony, minded having to go Under Cover(s). In an interview with Cote and Weatherly. Cote said she thought that they did it and were not faking sex. Then they were trapped in a shipping container in "Boxed In" mere episodes later.
  • In 3.06 when Tony and Ziva are leaving for dinner (Ziva is filling in for Tony's ex Monica) Tony goes back to get the sexy night gown (Also for Tony's ex) and even though Ziva's not looking she says you won't be needing that Tony
Season 4
  • In 4x1 Shalom, we see Ziva being questioned by Mossard about her relationship with Tony DiNozzo. We are shown pictures of the two outside Ziva's house talking and it is revealed that Tony has been visiting Ziva's at least once a week for the last 3-4 months. We still don't know what they were doing.
  • Also...in late season 4 we see Ziva's growing concern for Tony as she thinks he has been visiting hospital because of an after effect of his season 2 bout of plague. As she hears conversations between him and his "girlfriend" Jeanne Benoit we see that she is hurt; whether this is a result of her unrequited love for tony or merely friendly concern for him is a question that hasn't yet been answered.
  • Also, we can not forget Ducky's comment in Angel of Death about how Ziva had been treating Tony like a wayward lover...
  • Then again they could be considered good friends. Tony is a flirt and Ziva is around him all the time. The question about the relationship between Tony and Ziva and what it REALLY is, is a question still in the air and everyone is hungry for an answer, there is tension every episode.
Season 5
  • The season starts as a carry-on from the season 4 final. In the start we see Tony's car blow up, and the team is lead to believe that he is dead. It turns out he isn't dead and the rest of the team finds out about his undercover assignment with Jeane.
  • Through the season we see Ziva & Tony getting back to what they used to be before Jeanne. With a high amount of sexual Tension, we are all asking, When will they give in?
  • Ziva is obviously jealous of Nikki and Tonny's sleeping accommodations in Iraq in "In the Zone".
  • Later in the season (Recoil) we see the roles reversed after Ziva's undercover op. When Tony tries to be there for Ziva, she just pushes him away.
  • In the season final (Judgement Day I &II) promo we can see that T & Z are in LA. In the episode we find out that they are on protection detail with Jen. Some great Tiva moments in part 1
  • In Judgement day part II, Tony and Ziva have a long overdue talk, but not what we would like it to be about.
  • Also, we can't let slip the part of their 'talk' where Ziva Says"Nothings Inevitable".
  • In the end of this season Tony is being reassigned to the U.S.S Ronald Reagen as Agent Afloat, and Ziva is being sent back to Israel.
  • Which only leaves 2 questions. How the hell are they getting back? and will they realize their feelings are stronger than they thought & mutual?
Season 6
  • In the first episode, Ziva admits to Gibbs that she's missed Tony (with a great little smile on her face!)
  • In Agent Afloat, Ziva hints that there was a conversation between Judgement Day and Last Man Standing by asking Tony if he is still drinking.
  • She also tells him that he could have called her, and there many longing looks!!!!
  • Tony has the pictures of Ziva in the bikini from Judgement Day part 1 in his room. From many different angles.
  • In Nine Lives, Tony shows interest in the fact that Ziva is going to Tel Aviv, and does not let up when she refuses to tell him who she is going to see. Later, Tony snoops around in her desk and finds a picture of a half naked man on her desk. He seems saddened by this.
  • In Cloak, Ziva nearly confesses to Tony about her "reflex" really having to do with protecting him while in the elevator with him. Tony says, after this near confession by Ziva,that he is tired of pretending most likely referring to the fact of being used as a puppet for far too long by the previous administration and the current admin, with Ziva agreeing with him. However, was Tony covering up for his true feelings? Was this almost a confession of her feelings for Tony by Ziva? Is this a step in a relationship for Tony and Ziva?
  • I think Tony suspects something of Ziva's time back in Israel, but won't say anything because he fears for her life.
  • Endless flirting. Always torturing us. So close, yet so far away!

Quotes
  • "Sometimes I used to picture you naked,"
    Then Ziva is there, simply watching.
    "I'll call you back," said Tony hurriedly as though he was on speaker phone
    Then he stutters various gibberish along the lines of "I was....just.."
    Thus the very first question Ziva asked Tony was "Having phone sex?"
  • Tony: You ever Gibbs Slap me again David and I will slap you back harder.
    Ziva: I was following orders!
  • Ziva: I'm braless.
    Tony: I noticed that earlier. But on a phone, they're bars.
  • Ziva: It was no secret. He's writing about us!
    Tony: Oh come on, it's not about us. I mean the whole part about Liza and her broken heart.
    Ziva: The memento she keeps from a relationship that would never have a chance to happen.
    Tony: Yeah, where’s he getting than? Or the scene between Liza and Tommy where they pour out their hearts to each other and spill their secrets
    Ziva: Haha. When he tries to explain the profound nature of his identity crisis.
    Tony: Yeah! I mean the hidden struggle between ‘who he is?’ and ‘what he’s becoming?’ I don't even know what it is.
    Ziva: Totally unrealistic.
    Tony: Would never happen
  • Tony: I was going to say that your life would have had more meaning if you had slept with me.
    Ziva: If you had anything else on your mind perhaps I would have.
    Tony: Reeeally?
    Ziva: Um, no.
  • Ziva: Gibbs does not accept apologies. But I do.
    Tony: I'm sorry, Ziva, I know you were trying to help.
    Ziva: Did I?
    Tony: Um, I'll get back to you.
  • Ziva: I miss you too, all of you, even Tony.
  • McGee: It’s gonna be tough.
    Ziva: You think it’s hard for us. Image what it feels like to be him.
    McGee: Who him?
    Ziva: Tony! We’re all here and he’s stuck on that ship.
    McGee: Not Tony. I meant…
    Ziva: Completely alone, away from all those who care about him. (pauses) Wait? You weren’t talking about Tony?
    McGee: No.
  • (Ziva gives Tony her long stare.)
    Tony: What?
    Ziva: You seem, um…different.
    Tony: Taller? Hotter?
    Ziva: Older.
    Tony: Well, it’s been over four months.
    Ziva: You still beating yourself up over Jenny?
    Tony: (looks away from Ziva) Not as much as I used to.
    Ziva: Drinking?
    Tony: Not as much as I used to.
    (Ziva touches his shoulder to get him to look at her)
    Ziva: You could have called.
  • Abby (to Tony and Nikki in Iraq over teleconference): I didn't know you guys were sharing a room.
    Ziva: (aside to Abby) They are sharing a room?
    Tony: We're not exactly sharing a room.
    Ziva: Either they're sharing a room or they're not sharing a room. I don't see what is so exact or not exact about it.
female FBI agent to McGee: We have a whole new respect for NCIS, Agent McGee.
McGee: We got lucky. It was actually the trained laser on the room that gave you away.
female FBI agent: I was talking about your agents DiNozzo and David pretending to be married assassins.
male FBI agent: Very convincing.
female FBI agent: I don't think anyone in the FBI would actually go all the way just to sell a cover story.
male FBI agent: I would.
McGee (smiles): Guys, they were acting.
male FBI agent: Trust me, I know when someone's acting when they're having sex.
female FBI agent: It's true, I've met his wife.
McGee gets up and looks at the plasma which is showing Tony and Ziva laughing in their hotel room.
McGee: But...Tony and Ziva wouldn't...
  • Ziva jumps on top of Tony to protect him from a ricocheting bullet.
    Tony: Why are you on top of me?
    Ziva: I'm protecting you, Tony.
    Tony: Well don't.
    Ziva: You didn't seem to mind when we were undercover.
    Tony: That might have something to do with the fact that you were naked.
    Ziva: Perhaps if it were warmer in here.
    Tony: Hmm. Let me rephrase the question. Why are you still on top of me?
  • Tony and Ziva are opening a box which may contain unstable explosives.
    Tony: I just want you to know that you're life would have had more meaning if you'd slept with me.
    Ziva: If you'd had anything else on your mind maybe I would have.
    Tony: Reeeeelly?
    Ziva: Umm...No.
Tony and Ziva are bound and beaten in a terrorist cell in Somalia.

Ziva: Why are you here?
Tony: Well... I guess I couldn't live without you. Hey, you should know, I took some sort of truth serum, so if there is something you don't want to know the answer to, don't ask.

Do you think these two are the hottest couple on NCIS? Would you love to see them together?

Or do you think Tony's like this around every woman, they are nothing more thatn friends and having them really together would need you to have a barf bag every time NCIS came on?

Since discussions about Tony/ziva have been all over the episode and show spoiler threads, I thought they deserved their own thread!

You can hate it, love it, whatever, but please no flaming other memebers, 'cause I don't wanna have a problem with the mods.

Nkisslover494 Season 7 info on Tony and Ziva (page: 1 2) 22 Sep 20 2009, 6:06 AM EDT by mariah4568

Here is an article with a little about whats in store for season 7. I couldn't get the pitcure or actual article up on here so I just copied and pasted the words.

Here's what it says:

Picture Caption: Weatherly and de Padlo's relationship will turn romantic next season.
Heading: NCIS plans shocking twist.
NCIS fans, consider this your one and only warning: "You cannot miss that first minute of our [Sept. 22] season premiere," insists exec producer Shane Brennan. "You'll think you know what's going on, but then you'll go, 'What just happened?!'" In possibly related news, Brennan says Tony (Michael Weatherly) and Ziva's (Cote de Pablo) relationship "will evolve rapdily" in the opener and then play out over the next three episodes. Will they finally seal the deal? "Yes, but I don't know when," he hedges. "It'll be very unexpected.

Ziva and Tony would really make a nice and great couple. Please, dear NCIS writers, let Tony fall in love with Ziva, let Ziva stop protecting herself from her feelings. Please make it happen, find a great idea and make it happen this year ! It would be so nice to see a romantic, love and strong relationship between them. I'm sure you can make our wish comes true. Maybe they can hide from the rest of the team (as Monica and Chandler in Friends for exemple), anyway, I'm sure you can find somtehing very interesting around this couple. Please !!!!
