* Tony and Ziva are unique in television couples in that they have two leitmotifs, their [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ops5bkI71Bs theme]], and the second half of a bit of score from season 6's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nOoQ-zPioC0 "Aliyah."]] They're used for different purposes in the narrative, leading to some interesting nonverbal storytelling. "Aliyah" is used mostly when Ziva is being vulnerable with Tony, often about her past; eventually, this theme plays over Ziva or Tony discussing or interacting with their daughter. Their theme is played over scenes focusing on their feelings for each other. They set the tone for the significance of the scene and what is being highlighted. And yes, both become tear-jerkers because the show insists on using them even after they don't share scenes together anymore. While it's not unusual to hear them in the same episode, it's rare to hear them back-to-back. However, season 17's "Into the Light" does, conveying layers of emotion to a scene that's entirely without dialogue. Ziva returns to NCIS and finds her old desk; "Aliyah" plays slowly as she surveys the bullpen, but morphs into their theme when she sits down and looks across the bullpen at the desk that used to be Tony's. This scene is about a minute long, but manages to convey Ziva's hesitation and mixed emotions at confronting the past she left behind, and her love and longing for Tony without saying a word.
