"I'm not arguing. I think it's a great idea. I also know his objections." Of course, Callen got to Sam's problem with the idea after going through the schedule. "And that's really why he wouldn't like it, but I was going to suggest Reese as well. He's not Sam, though. You're used to going in, knowing that Sam would be there no matter what.

Sounds good?"
